Back in the day I used to be a suited and booted umbrella man, never wore a bowler hat though.

That picture, it looks like a similar type to one of the cats here, a British Shorthair...but it is a female and...anti-social. My sister bought it.

Angela here - Buenas Tardes Tio Steve ! Pleased you enjoyed our presentation ! Russian Blues are Cool Cats and hypnotise Doggies with their Golden Eyes. Since we got Smokey some of the local Kids have brought their CATS (& Dogs) to meet Him. The CATS have loved HIM. Dogs are a bit wary of Cats because of their CLAWS. Brian (who is around in the Day) tells me - because He PURRS - so far all the FELINE - FELINE & FELINE - CANINE encounters with SMOKEY have been Friendly ! So far no one has brought a MOUSE !

Fido should be OK provided he doesnt BARK !
Spiritual love - Angel - Brian - Smokey Cat !

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

ANGELA HERE - Hi Dove thanks for your encouraging response ! With EXTRATERRESTRIAL Children it where they were CONCEIVED that is important not where thy were BORN ! SO if we went to Mars on a short term mission (say 5 years) to help to set up the Colony and conceived a Child who was then BORN on Mars it woul be a true Martin ~ EXCITING ! In the Spanish naming tradition MARZIO (nino) o MARZIA (nina) They would of course look like us (not green with triangular heads and huge almond eyes !) but all their Astral Influences wold be Martian and the first Settlers would devise a Language & Music & Dress & Games ~ AWESOME !
Normally in an acrostic the FIRST LETTER of each line must spell out the TITLE WORD - The same is true in a SYN-ACROSTIC - BUT - The first word in each line must also be a SYNONYMN (or a DESCRIPTOR of the Title Word ~ OK ~ have a go post one !

Bendiciones y Paz y Alegria y Amor
Abrazos y Besos d*A y B y Gatto Fumado !

ANGELA & BRIAN said:

Thanks for all your comments UNSUB they are not NEGATIVE but they are SUBJECTIVE not OBJECTIVE ! However being Young (30*s) we are very open to critisism and a SUBJECTIVE CRITIQUE is better than none at all ! What the Martian Colonisers are looking for are People with Medical - Scientific & Technological & Administrative Skills. Angela & i would tick those BOXES. Preferably couples without Young Children and People prepared to take a *ONE-WAY TICKET* Religion is not an issue ~ Applicants could be any Religion or None or Any Culture. A common language would be essential for communication. Pesonally
I feel the Colonisation of Mars (not Venus or the Moon) is a long way off (2035 at the earliest) so we may be too old when the opportunity arises. Buzz is 90 so I doubt he will ever set foot on Mars. The big issue is OXYGEN & WATER which would have to be sourced from minerals on Mars ! The concept of a Martian Colony of Millions is in the hinterland between Science Fact & Science Fiction.
Sorry for restating what a SYN~ACROSTIC is but MPS is a very dynamic site and new People join every week OK !
Angela & I are Professional People seeking to do Useful Jobs in the Community. We just happen to be Christians but we are not Pastors or Evangelists or Full-time Church Workers and any work we done in our Local Church (Music - Youth Leaders etc) is Voluntary. If we did go to Mars it would be as Scientists and not to Set up The Martian Church of Jesus Christ & Latter Day Aliens ! We can worship ALONE just as we have done for Months during this Pandemic. We would be building Living & Working Accommodation & A College & A Medical Centre etc NOT A CATHEDRAL ~ OK !

Best wishes & Peace & Joy
Yours Brian & Angela

GOD IS OUR HELPER ~ AMEN ~ PSALM 121 !
Goldfinch60 said:

What a load of drivel, \"He will deliver\" well HE didn\'t deliver to Joyce or me. Where was this christian god that we both used to pray to when our need was greatest. JOyce prayed and sung his praise for more than seventy years yet when she needed him/it, him/it was not there. My christianity has gone from me and it is like a release within me has given me freedom.

GOD IS OUR HELPER ~ AMEN ~ PSALM 121 !
dusk arising said:

Tell it to the families of the good christians who died, betrayed by your impotent \'omnipotent\' god.
Man created christianity and shaped it to his needs to create a power base to rule the minds of men. You gullibles are still hooked on it.
Faith is all you\'ve got. nothing tangible. But persistence keeps you blindy sold.

WHITE DOVE ~ UNA PALOMA BLANCA ~ UNA POEMA PANTOUMA !
Fay Slimm. said:

A beautifully apt tribute to Dove which I am sure will delight and upbuild her feeling of needed to be free as a bird. You chose singer I have not heard in many a moon -and
can remember his numbers when I danced nights away .........
