If it is not slippery I am going to walk to my daughters house and they promised a nice beef dinner today.
I have been asked to get some apple pie and cream on the way round from a shop which has just opened which they were told about by my other daughter yesterday as I had a lamb dinner at her house.
Normally I take them out for a meal every other week but not this weekend due to the conditions.
If it is dangerous I will cook myself fish and chips.

Thanks Feetlebaum. Did you ever see the film? There was a cinema owner (manager?) in Christchurch, New Zealand who was so obsessed with the film that he showed it in his smallest cinema every Sunday, though I think the earthquake two years ago put paid to that. As far as I know, it didn't drive anyone to suicide down under.

I like the poem too. feetle!

I've recently joined the new U3A here.
Having been sent a list, today I emailed 26 people about a new U3A Family History group which I've foolishly offered to organise....
........now I'm waiting as replies come in slowly. It WILL happen, if I have anything to do with it!
So far there are three...

Well so what. I can discuss FH with three just as easily as 23 - in fact it might be easier!

Good for you, Alie. Do not despair! These groups sometimes take a while to get off the ground. Our creative writing group looked as if it might collapse at one time but now has around 12 active members and we are preparing a booklet of our work to sell to members.

Such a beautiful, sunny, cold day here, but it was nice to go out in it for a while.

Hi anno. I have four now, and a list of possible meeting places.....

The 'Singing for fun' group is happening for the first time tomorrow - well, the first time actually singing. There's a suggestion of folk songs - I like.

Our thin coating of snow has now gone....but I didn't feel like going out! Too cold for me.
