Originally from the UK I retired & moved to Spain 20 years ago, whilst it's not paradise it's probably as close as I'll ever come to it, living on a mountain with the sea in front & mountains behind & 320 days of sunshine a year. Still reasonably fit

Hope everyone else is coping in these dire days.
Dogs have a 6th sense and can pick up on us humans and anxiety. My vets are brill collecting and delivering her. I think she's in overnight and I miss her terribly. We are best buddies as she's a rescue dog and absolutely dotes on me. I just get stressed without her which does me no favours under the circumstances.
Hope your big guy is ok. Take care
Just had a call from the surgeon. They were unable to do an examination today as she was in too much pain, so tomorrow she goes under anaesthetic and if they find anything untoward they will operate again. so she's in until Thursday now. I miss my best friend so much . Thanks for your concern.
Art makes MiMi happy
Happy St.Patrick’s Day!
P.S: Sorry for Art’s shabbiness coz he had been cooking and cleaning
i got a good laugh out of that tweet
This whole situation has got completely out of control.
Well you just carry on looking after No.1 and the rest of us will just plod along.. What came from China should have bloody stayed there. Just saying.
But no good crying over spilt milk, it's worldwide now, and should be treated with contempt, washing hands and keeping away from people is a better way to fight it, Lockdowns, like they have in Spain, is going to do nothing that soap and water can't achieve. Closing businesses etc will create an economic crisis unheard of in modern history.
How many people died from the common flu in 2018/2019? A heck of a lot more than this virus will kill, but last year there was no panicking, no businesses closed and the world survived just fine.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder's fork and blind-worm's sting,
Lizard's leg and howlet's wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

Was sorry to hear about your job, have you heard anything yet from the government, I understand they plan on giving you all $1k a month
The point I was trying to make is that the media has blown this up way beyond the point of no return, had they remained calm, just published clear details of ways to prevent contamination, I believe the world would have coped far better than it is doing now.
People in China are following government guidelines, the virus is abating, in the city where I worked there was 20 new suspected patients a day, yesterday there was 1, today, so far, zero. No one knows if this is due to government control or because the weather is warming up, time will tell.
