Wasn't that long ago the English were telling us white immigrants to "speak English", they were so neurotic that we were talking about them. 🤪🙄

Aaww, always happy to help. I'm aware there are many who find dark nights and gray days depressing, so I try to help cheer them up where I can. For me, the festive lights, candles, etc. are some of the things we can use to brighten our lives up! 🤗

This is hilarious, until it happens to you! 😂😂😂

Enjoy the nap! Apparently it's supposed to be sunny again on Mongrey... 😉😆

Genau! And it has always been that way. 😊

I hear you. I lived near Bristol when I lived in the UK, and a trip to LDN for a few hours was always fun, but living there was never my desire - I'm not a city person. Even here in Germany, I live in the countryside, but it's a short train trip into Frankfurt, if I want to visit the city.

Yup! But if the naysayers were to be believed, NYC is as much of a no-go city as London is supposed to be, if you're listening to trollbots on Twitter. 🤪🙄

Danke! 🤗 She loves the windowsill, as it's above the radiator, and on chilly days, that's the best snoozing location, too! 😸😻

Here's the German version...

Same, same! 😂😂

To my eternal shame, my constant f*ck up is the word "epitome"... yes, yes, I *am* that person that has said epi-tome instead of ee-pit-o-me.

Absolute dunce, but my excuse is that English never was my first language, although it is the one I've spoken the longest. 🫣😬

I'm only an hour in. We haven't got to the romantic Jack Black part yet - I'm more used to him being in Tenacious D, if I'm honest. 🫣

And that's only because of my son, who intro'd me to them many, many moons ago.

Oh, really? Might have to check that out! 😆

Thank you! 😊

😲

Sending my sympathies - it's bizarre watching this from afar, but I can't imagine what it must feel like to be living under that regime at the moment. Everything is so topsy turvy, and every day there's a new, more farcical than the last, edict from Pennsylvania Ave, DC. 😬

Absolutely! I would have thought that if you were thinking of entering the political arena, you'd know that criticism is headed your way, regardless of which side you represent. They're so bloody thin-skinned, it's unbelievable.

Trashing the White House in more ways than one! 🤪🙄

Congratulations, you two! Sometimes it's hard to believe it's already been five years, and other times it feels longer, right?

We'll have to organise a catch-up in the Weinstraße soooooon! I'm thinking the blossom festival and/or the duck race again! 😆🌸🦆🥂
