General Chat

Truth! I googled it

I can't have my youthful image shattered :0))

Allan

Thats ok .Allan
I have noticed you are on a few threads how do you keep up ??
they do say it keeps your brain active , !!

Barbra, I only post on threads which aren't too serious, and I definitely steer clear of all those b*tchy type threads.

Also, with some of them they are soon gone once the topic is no longer relevant.

I just enjoy chatting to the ones on the long term threads!

Allan

Good night & GDayx

Good night Barbra

Allan

Morning ethics hope the weather is good down there !!!
summer at last !!!

Yeh, thats right! Rub it in!

Winter here :0((

whoo.. you can always come here for a holiday beautifull Dumfries & Galaway . the sea. mountains .& sheep mind you there will be plenty were you are sheep i mean !!
Sorry I wont say anymore ~~~;0))

Barbra, I saw the programme 'Islands of Britain' with Martin Clunes visiting the Scottish Islands

What remarkable scenery! I have always like Scotland but I suppose the grass is always greener!

There are very nice areas around where we live but not the same visual impact

Allan

I've just seen the reference to sheep.

This area is actually dairy country so plenty of cows. The sheep are further South, particularly around Kojonup where I was working recently

Allan

Allan people have differant ideas about holidays & the way they live
we lived in a town most of our lives . handy for shops & markets . but now enjoy the laid back life here . maybe not the same for a lot of people .
I am not a person to want to be in crowds & lot of hussle & bussle
could sit by a loch & read a book & just enjoy the peace & quite . for an afternoon . , others would want to be on the go .. count my blessings that have found my heaven here !!!!
Bye Barbra ////// Apart from the midges

The Midges wiped out the Dinosaur in Scotland.....True...;>))

Must admit tis a beautiful Country Scotland.
Not that i have seen a lot of it, but what i saw ( from an Aussie point of view ) it is..... ( Highlands ) one of the most scenic countries i have ever visited and driven in.

South Island of New Zealand comes to mind.

A bit cooler down here !!!

Hi barbra

G'day Tony

We have never been to New Zealand but would like to go one day.

When living in the UK I liked Wales, Scotland Northumberland and the Lakes.

I guess I am drawn to the rugged type of scenery. I haven't travelled very far in the north of WA but in the south I really like the area around the Stirling Range and the Porongorups.

Not as extensive as mountain Ranges elsewhere but still a magnificent sight and area.

It's also the only area in WA to have snow, although it never lasts for long :0((

Allan

Allan I loved going through Glencoe stunning & awesome mountain ranges. [didnt climb any ] OH didnt like it . !!! we use to go to the lakes on holiday yrs ago stayed at Cartmel & visited Coniston ; very busy area last time we were there ; you have to visit these places it broadens the mind & waist line . home made ice cream & knickerbocker glory`s oh memories !!!
Barbra

Barbra, when I was at high school, every easter there was a camp in the Lake District at Newlands.

On the way there, there was a largish hill called Cat bells. As soon as the bus got there , all those with the proper gear were kicke of the bus and made to scramble up the hill "to get the blood moving"

I loved those camps.

Allan

Phew to much like hard work . a gentle stroll for me . ;0))

And me these days, Barbra.

But back then between the ages of 12 and 16 I was as fit as a fiddle, and thought that I could conquer the world!

Allan

Yeh but if I'd conquered the world, I could have ruled it from the UK :0))

Good night to you Barbra, pleasant dreams

Allan
