  1. I heard just  now that an English pub has just intrduced a new beer at 3.9% which compared to the beers of old is rather weak but appropriate name.  "Harry' Bitter"

  2.  

    Very popular here. County is beautiful. I guess it helps that I have been there a number of times. Then you have to try and understand the people that live there. The UK has comparatively such a long history that you,or many of you, want to keep. Brexit, to me, was the UK saying that we want control over our country and we control its' boarders not the EU.

    To see some of the Montana countryside and a bit of their culture try the lnk below. The 15 minute area on a 4k set really shows it off. I have been through those areas a number of times and should really go back again. There, Barcelona and Venice are on my bucket list.           h//ps://youtu.be/qXCUCj9GVn0

  3. I am sad to see that Dave has died.I will miss him. He has this last year been the most active member.                                                                                                                                                                                                    We are all getting older.....that happens. I know Dave has not been that well for some time but a deathis always, somehow. a surprise. May he RIP

    I picked up an infection from who knows where last Christmas time and spent 3 months and then over two weeks in hospital as well as home IV and pill antibiotics to kill this bug( it almost got me a couple of times) Am  still on them and will be for another few months just to be sure we get the bugger.

    My point is that we are all fragile and just don't know how much time we have here, so we might as well make the most of it. I have been re-evaluating my own life and plan to make some adjustments.                                 I suggest that to any who view this.   

  4. A Newfoundland farmer named Angus had a car accident. He was hit by a truck owned by the Eversweet Company.

     

     

    In court, the Eversweet Company's hot-shot solicitor was questioning Angus. 

     

     

    'Didn't you say to the RCMP at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine I'm fine?' asked the solicitor. 

     

     

    Angus responded: 'Well, I'll tell you what happened. I'd just loaded my fav'rit cow, Bessie, into da... ' 

     

     

    'I didn't ask for any details', the solicitor interrupted. 'Just answer the question. Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'?' 

     

     

    Angus said, 'Well, I'd just got Bessie into da trailer and I was drivin' down da road.... '

     

     

    The solicitor interrupted again and said ,'Your Honour, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question. ' 

     

     

    By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Angus' answer and said to the solicitor: 'I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favourite cow, Bessie'.

     

     

    Angus thanked the Judge and proceeded. 'Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my fav'rit cow, into de trailer and was drivin' her down de road when this huge Eversweet truck and trailer came tundering tru a stop sign and hit me trailer right in da side. I was trown into one ditch and Bessie was trown into da udder. By Jaysus I was hurt, very bad like, and didn't want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moanin' and groanin'. I knew she was in terrible pain just by her groans. 

     

     

    Shortly after da accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moanin' and groanin' too, so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes.

     

     

    Den da policeman came across de road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and said, 'How are you feelin'?' 

    'Now wot da fock would you say?

  5. Regardless of the veracity of their story I found their public airing of family laundry totally unbefitting of Harrys' former status...and they were paid a handsome amount to do so.

    Any thoughts?

  6. Covid has affected each and every one of us. It has isolated us and left a us with a glum outlook on our world. At this time it is best that we keep a positive attitude. Hopefully you and your son will be amongst those with few symptoms. 

    Keep us posted.
