Thank you - it was a horrible day, but if course not just for us. We went to a church service for the firemen lost that day and met a lady who had lost both her husband and brother.

We were stuck in New York for over a week. I have a very vivid memory of sitting in the departure lounge at the airport. There were huge TV screens around the room and you can probably guess what was showing on them - the aircraft hitting the twin towers over and over again.

Then a security expert was interviewed and explained all the precautions they were taking to make flying safe. At the end of the interview she was asked 'would you fly at the moment'. 'No way ' she replied. It would been funny if we hadn't been so petrified..
 
A Psychedelic forest, a delightful splash of colour and imagination in your art today.
 
Nothing beats a good nights sleep everything seems much better

Great bit of experimental art - reminds me of oil paints drizzled onto water or however that is done.

Thank you @dunelm
Are you talking about marbling? To create end pages for book binding? Loads books had that when I was a child. I experimented then with brown wrapping paper, water, but I have no idea what paints I used to float on the water.
 
Sleep is good!
Have a relaxing day @HarryBeau
 
Morning all.

Fbg 6.8..sun, sea, sangria...nuff said.

A lazy glorious day again, yesterday.

Sat, ate, drank, swam, sunbathed, repeated hourly
Dr JJ's prescription for some respite from an awful year.

Schoolboy error...
Went to beach no treats for cats...doh
Still had this little chap, forgive us and clamber up for strokes & cuddles, instead..xx





And this one ambushed us at supermarket.
Kisses & cuddles before realising we were cat poor in treats..




And for the more doggie orientated

Rush hour traffic grinds to a halt in Turunc



2/3 dogs seem to endlessly patrol the promenade..

Big dogs, but so friendly.

Lest I forget. Whilst His Lardship is busy posturing, remember a generation of real patriots who perished actually fighting for this country. Ben P died this day in 1916:
P****, B., L/Corporal, Bedfordshire Regiment.
He was mobilised at the outbreak of war in August 1914, and was immediately drafted to the Western Front, where he fought in the Retreat from Mons and also took part in the Battles of the Marne, Festubert and Loos and other engagements. He was reported missing, and is believed to have been killed in action on September 13th, 1916. He was entitled to the Mons Star, and General Service and Victory Medals. Buried Guillemont Road Cemetery, Guillemont, Somme, France. "A costly sacrifice upon the altar of freedom."

Apparently, checking T cells to Covid is not an easy test and assessment is difficult.

It would be outrageous to see this as inappropriate IMHO. Thread is full on chat and Domestic Abuse must adversely impact so many things including bg. Good on you Sir.
 
Such men didn't give way to self interest or not keeping their word.

What kind of example are the current leaders setting the young?

 

This is good. Very effective poster @Alien Aspie
