Doggerel Dave said:
Oh what a scene of sheer delight
A moment cherished for us all:
Holdfast this image, it is right
To hold it clear before the pall.
Enjoy for as long as you can Andy..... and maybe what is comming won\'t worry either of us.....🙂

Thoughts In Life.
sorenbarrett said:
A positive view that lifts the spirit and gives hope in a world so full of things to bemoan. I liked the inner dimension, not only looking back forward and the present but inward.

Paul Bell said:
Times are tough just now and the world faces difficult times ahead. In years to come, these will be the memories imprinted on the young generation just now. They\'ll get through it, cos that\'s what humans do.

Doggerel Dave said:
Reality is a function of size,
Also limitations of our senses;
But my perception should be no surprise -
Vision must be clear, free of pretences.
Abject apologies, Andy, you cornered me – right now my cognitive apparatus admits of not much hope...... Tho’ I’ll be gone…….. 😃

Smoke No More.
Neville said:
Congratulations and well done GF60 .. that is no mean feat .. I also gave up nicotine about 20 years ago .. it was one of the hardest things to let go of ..
maybe as a matter of interest, I used to be able to get almost anyone that wanted to get off heroin in about 3 or 4 days by prescribing clean and safe opiate substitutes .. alcohol maybe in around 10 days or so .. but nicotine .. was another matter altogether .................... Neville

Smoke No More.
Doggerel Dave said:
I’d sit up front on a double decker
And smoke a foul Spanish from my girlfriend;
Man behind said ‘’I feel like a kipper’’
Them were the days, now my cough knows no end.
All true: I gave up in 1987 after twenty years and feel lucky to still be around…..

I gave it up without starting. Well, I tried me first and last ciggy at about age 11 and it choked me!
It\'s terrible how many are affected by it. On medical progs, they say \'If only I had not smoked....\'
We don\'t see it some much now, except, e.g. staff having fags outside during breaks. I hated it when it was allowed on buses. I think it was only upstairs, but downstairs was often full by the time the bus got to my stop.

Enjoy the good life while it lasts. Live, love, and work together. Four hands are better than two but remember you don\'t have to do it all. Certain jobs can be hired out or even eliminated. It\'s time to live life to the fullest. Do what you can, but that\'s all.
Good poem on one of life\'s little changes. - Phil A.

I have observed that having something done for you isn\'t a sure sign of inability or laziness but could be seen as some other stepping out of their self caring to include you in their day and daily chores, a sign of caring, esteem, dedication, attention, connection... and a slew of other gratifying concepts. Of course we do not always see things that way. But when we do, it is as you have said, \'wonderful!\'

I’m not a marriage councillor my friend.
My relationships have not included
Such, which would have driven me round the bend;
Call me rum – This will not be disputed.
Each to their own, Andy, and the very best of good wishes.

Ten Sixty Six.
Doggerel Dave said:
Collapse of historical archives will be imminent
Once the truth of your account is verified and revealed:
For those who must care, history has no equivalent
Of witnessed events whose honesty cannot be appealed.
How can we be sure that all those history books will be recycled, rather than go to landfill, Andy?

Ironing Goldiku.
Doggerel Dave said:
I cannot understand this one at all:
Please do clarify this and give a call…
Your clothing doesn’t wick after you smooth;
Cloth should be full - this no more than the truth.
Three weeks after I left home, a very long time ago, I gave up ironing. Don\'t waste your life, Andy.... LOL.....

Brilliance Or Kindness.
Doggerel Dave said:
Yes kind people still do exist -
And found everywhere in our midst.
I fall over and am injured:
Strangers there, assistance rendered.
I have very bad balance.
