Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

[Armaghtoffee]

Evening all, another glorious day here in the NW. Took a gorgeous little dog for a walk who has suffered such cruelty it was sickening and yet he was happy and trusting and got lots of cuddles and fuss. Sometimes I despair of what humans are capable of.
More sadness this afternoon as we found out that the guy who has the hotel that we stayed in in Zante has died. He was very young and apparently fell off some scaffolding.
Make the most of every day.
Looking forward to tomorrow as we are going for a walk with the baby to a place called Applecast which is two minutes walk from my sons house and has a petting zoo and a cafe, none of which will be of the slightest interest to her but the grown ups (well me) are excited and will enjoy it . What flavour is the cake @Gwladysover - sounds delicious.
Have a lovely evening and a fun filled Friday

You would never trust anyone who could be bad to an animal. Dangerous people full stop.

The last petting zoo I went to I had to stand outside as my kids handled the reptiles. It’s enough to give me nightmares even recalling the memory.

I agree, how people are with animals says a lot. I even like snakes and lizards, a colleague of mine had a python as a pet, predictably called Monty, it was very cute.

Hmm, not to sure about snakes , my step son keeps them , seems a bit weird to me — and who names a snake after the hero of El Alamein anyway ?

You were luckier than us with the weather, the sun has hardly put in an appearance all day.Hope the little dog gets a home soon, sounds as though he really deserves a family to love him.
The cake is just a Madeira, turned out not too bad though I say so myself, what it tastes like is another matter.
Enjoy the petting zoo, sounds like fun.

Snakes and spiders - give me the creeps.

I brushed against a hedge this afternoon while walking and about 5 mins later a large spider ran across the back of my neck and down my shoulder.

(Shudder).

It’s moths for me - I hate them they really freak me out

Not too bothered about spiders, but even behind glass I can’t look at snakes…….

Good morning all on this lovely day ,it seems the hot/warm weather is coming to an abrupt end here soon! I hope all had a good night and have a lovely day today .
It seems we are much more than decimated on the playing side ,what is the illness sweeping the club ? It looks like a bad weekend awaits if we have enough players to form a side .COYB

The weatherman tells us 19° today but only 11° next Friday. Quite the change coming up indeed then.

Just been reading the injury/illness updates and it looks bleak for Saturday. He must put some faith in Dixon and Lindstrom and let these lads settle into the team and make a difference. They both look to makes things happen and we need that mentality more than anything now.

Good evening folks and a pleasant one for you all I hope it is. That was one hard working week and I’m glad it’s over. I started this morning with plans for drinks and a meal out this evening and that has now changed to a night in with some TV. I put it down to a difficult week rather than age

If anyone has Now 70s TV channel watch the All the Young Dudes Top 30 programme - transported right back to my teenage years with some stuff I’d forgotten about. Pure nostalgia

Cheers if anyone is joining me tonight
