Around here we go shopping on foot.

We buy as much as we can carry, no more.

[Monkey Face]

And before I got Mr Bill, I walked to Walmart (a mile) in the early AM (winter and summer) and tried to take the first bus back, which took longer to do than walking and shopping, together. And I carried a HUGH backpack that held up to four bags of groceries, with a large tote to carry the bulky things in.

Life is good, these days. But I would do it again, even though I’m getting a little old to be doing all that...still if the need arose...

[ArGee]

Wait - I’m confused.

You need a rose?

[Tax-chick]

Who doesn’t need a rose?

[Monkey Face]

A lady my age can always use roses... ;o]

[Monkey Face]

Roses are good. ;o])

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Not the actual rose in my garden because my camera died but it looks exactly like this.

[Monkey Face]

Oh, HTB, thanks! I really needed that today! <3

"Who doesn’t need a rose?"

I try to remember to be thankful that thornbushes have roses, and not regret that rosebushes have thorns. (Or, as 'Face would put it, þorns.)

[Monkey Face]

Thanks, Bob. But I have no idea where the (porns) came from, since I don’t know how to do that.

I just know that life without the silly/serious stuff is not really life at all. So I work at being who I am because of who I am.

[Monkey Face]

And so, good night. And my tagline may change. ;o]

Thorn is a symbol or letter in some old Saxon I guess alphabets. It's made on the screen by writing & thorn ; without the spaces, like this, þ -- then you can combine it with other words like þis.

& thorn ; is not very much of a short cut to use one symbol þ instead of two letters th, but we play with the toys we find.

Just watch those calories... ;-)

Fit a UPS truck down this:

The Sambles, York.
Butchers Lane to the rest of us. :)

[Covenantor]

Guest Walker, Solicitors...

in Butchers Lane.

I guess that’s appropriate if they are like US lawyers.

[moose07]

LoL.
With the the number of times I’ve walked down that lane I’ve never bothered to actually read that sign.
Now it will cause a grin that will need to be explained.....

[Covenantor]

My first reaction, before zooming in, was that it was an recruiting outpost of The Ministry of Silly Walks.

Today's Guest Walker...Montcrief "Awky" Hocking

[moose07]

It truly was a loss to the world when that Ministry was closed down after a Cabinet reshuffle.
All of the Private Secretaries , Permanent Private Secretaries ,Permanent Secretaries, Permanent UnderSecretaries, etc, where all relocated within HM Government. This explains a lot.
