[SIZE=“4”][FONT=“Garamond”][/FONT][/SIZE]Hi … I’m going to play about with icons a bit :twisted: though I’ve no idea what this message will look like.
Anyway … I’m new and have absolutely no idea what to expect. I don’t much like being over 50, but the one thing I’ve realised is that if I don’t do things now, I may never get another chance to do it, whatever it is.
I’ve got a rather strange sense of humour and am also - to my irritation - very shy. It’s a weird combination, but I’m working on having more to do in the evenings than flop down on the sofa and watch tv!
Now to play with some more icons (honestly, I don’t normally do it) … :twisted::twisted:
You’re Number 1 to speak to me - in fact, I’m still watching Robson Green fishing (in pouring rain) in Japan! I think it’s his enthusiasm I like best, because I’m certainly not interested in fishing at all in general rule, except to eat it, of course.
If he can put up with such extreme conditions (so rainy that Mount Fujiyama was totally invisible), then I can go out for a run round the local park, I suppose … after a close, humid day, the clouds are finally beginning to clear.
An angry icon? Shows just how little I know about icons, actually I thought it was kind of cute.
I’d better get off for the evening walk, then I can do some cooking (maybe). I have parsley and chives on the front balcony (grown from seed!), but they seem so happy, I’m a bit reluctant to cut them. But they’ll taste great.
“My feeling is that it’s better to laugh than cry.”
It sure is Rowan, there’s enough misery in the World to cry about, grab a laugh whenever you can, that’s what I say.
That horse on the avatar is of Arkle the famous racehorse, my son painted it for me years ago for my birthday, I like horses.
Rowan darlin’ good afternmoon and welcome. Come talk to me about ‘strange foods’ - I’m the resident Gormand - have a local butcher who can get me all sorts of ‘safari’ meats - have eaten: Bison, Camel, Crocodile, Eland, Impala, Kangaroo, Kudu, Ostrich, Water Buffalo, Wildebeeste & Zebra. Arte these ‘strange’ enough for you???
Great that chives grow more they are cut, as I went a bit wild just now and am making macaroni cheese with a twist, or rather with parsley and chives and perhaps a bit of mint. It’s the kind of cooking of type a sentence, check the pasta’s not boiling over, type a sentence, chop up the cheese (applewood smoked cheddar).

This is just an experiment to see if my picture shows up … getting used to strange things is challenging and exciting and fun if they work. If they don’t work … that’s a different matter.
