Ummmm, I can see what you were saying, but, I have got to admit that I am of an opinion that a 'naughty' child - as opposed to a child with autism - ought to be chastised - even with a smack. It stops the child 'working themselves up into a frenzy' - thus limiting, the upset, the child would be putting him/herself through - and also the 'mothers' anxiety. I also have to disagree with you about the children 'not', growing up into 'yobs' and the like - - watching the 'behaviour' of children from 9yrs. upwards, around here (en route to the park) is 'ludicrous'!!! I do, believe it stems from the lack of 'proper' discipline at home. I think a lot of people of my age (and, obviously older) do have the same opinion. I have seen some poor mums out shopping with their children and one kiddie in particular, was trowing a tantrum. The 'mum' held firm and stood her ground - the little'un had wanted a bar of chocolate or 'something', anyway, the kiddie landed a heck, of a 'kick' to his mums shin!!! She merely told the child off - did it stop him from carrying on??? Did it heck! I had felt sorry for her - perhaps I still do in a way - if this crazy government hadn't allowed this law to be enforced, I doubt very much if it would have occured in the first place! Anyway Tracy, have you looked at the suggestions I came up with for a fitness regime? I saw it on MSN last evening an was amazed at how many calories can be gotten rid of by staying in doors Try it with 'Chubby Checker' - it'll be fun doing it
No, I don't it is odd to look at someone and then write about them - provided it isn't sort of 'fantasy-based' - you know what I mean I think that by looking at 'people' and studying their 'ways' (for want of a better word), we have some of the best novels/films etc. You think, all the people you have looked at, may one day, find them in a 'book', you might pen one evening
Hobbes you and your buddies are gorgeous
I hope he succeeds Fredo
Great post John and the pictures are brilliant
Hi James, stopped by to say hello Noticed that you will help people with illness info. very tempted, to ask ask you one or two things, but I'm not going to as I know I would start me 'wondering' too much That would definitely increase my blood pressure, so I'll abstain from enquiring
Line 2, should read: Everything 'she' said. . .
I love your answers Steve and when I got to #4 I read it with relish and began to scroll down to leave my comment - then I read Lynnies comment, everything you has said is, true, but honest, I am not a 'quirky nut' I do, believe that we can receive and absorb, lots of 'spiritual natural' power from them - perhaps it's a bit of Pagan Druidism, that still float about in my genes - I dunno, but I know it's there
I love, history. If, I am not reading about it (or blogging about it - historical figures or, places) I will watch the documentary channel about it. I am not that, interested in 20th century history (the world wars etc. as I feel it's 'too close' - odd', maybe) although I do, think that quite a number of life 'changing' events took place! If I were to compile a 'wish list' & a 'genie' were to grant me my wish, I would get a 'time machine' & travel back to see diffenent places and people. I would never try to do anything to 'change' history - too many ramifications would occur, but I would love to go and view . . .
Interesting about that . . . but as the others said, don't leave on account of it - you'd be missed too much! On a lighter note (pardon the pun) I love the piano got to get me one . . .
Trouble is by not going to the gym, you may fall into the trap, of not looking after your self. Why not treat yourself to an excercise bike? It hasn't got to be 'state of the art' or, expensive - check out Argos. Even if you used it only occasionally, it's better than not working out at all
Great answers Steve #19 reminds me . . . "I got to get chores done". . . byeeee
