Ah, your writing about the green tree frogs (errrm, loo frogs!!), brings me back to '89/'90 when I was in Darwin. It was hot and humid yet for some reason, I decided to walk miles in the middle of the day, with bottle of water in hand. Not knowing exactly where I was heading other thna generally in the direction of where I was staying, I happened upon the Botanic Gardens. So raw, I just loved it there...creeks, canopied water lillies...I was busting afer all the water and tropical sweating as only you would understand. A mad rush through one toilet door, saw me almost ricoceting backwards and apologising to green frog no.1.....with some hesitation, I openened door no.2..oops, sorry, mr frog..out I go, next..and next..I think I hit the jackpot at around no.4 or 5, no little green creatures in the bowl, thank goodness...Otherwise it was going to be a spot outside shielded by some monster palms...
Jeez, they've come onto our shores now!! ...Shell, he's all yours!!

Well, even morrrrrre ridiculous, was that as I understand it, on the recent June Queen's birthday long weekend here, it was apparently Prince Phillip's birthday celebrations. Hers is apparently at a different time of the year. Or have I got that all wrong?
p.s. Yes, bummer about the decline in pub crawls and brawls... errm, I mean ...less katching!! due to the upgrade of student sophistication..
Aren't they supposed to be bringing in lots of tourist dollars. Not exactly how, unless it's for the Changing of the Guard, and to look at Buckingham Palace. No idea in real dollar terms what that might translate to. I object to Australia being still under the Queen's banner. It's ridiculous.
Now to the OP question...what about Cate and Pippa?
Hello vinny ...What if they see something they like, but too shy to make contact?...As CS states in their guidelines of using this site, viewing someone, is akin to looking at the person from across the room. If each looks and likes what they see, one or other might make a move to initiate conversation or just to say hello. We really can't assume anything one way or another, without risking being wrong
Having said that, I never contact anyone unknown to me, who appears on my WVM list.
I feel no such sense of obligation where the contact is either suspect or quite obviously a scammer. Certainly, not if I know nothing of them from the forums...even if I know they have been following a thread, helps me to know they are real. If I establish they are real, I always reply with a brief polite message back.
No, I do not hold grudges. Certainly not from ex's. Just the other day, I spoke with my son's father on the 'phone, relating to referring a potential client to him as he is a lawyer. I hope he is able to help that person. It costs nothing to wish someone well.
I do, however, stay away from persons who are 'unhealthy' for me to be around.
Thanks Merriweather. I really don't think such a list will have any impact at all. Besides, the list of known scammers' faces mostly look the same to me as each other, or too blurred to tell. There are millions of them across the globe. So, no, I won't be bothering to send the link to each new scammer. I just continue to report them(most of them).JMO
It's never ending. That's why I rarely use FB anymore, though it has many merits of keeping in touch with faraway friends and family, especially when you travel. But it's become an absolute free for all out there. I hate it.
How are you doing today ? Hope by the Grace of God all is well with you as I'm doing too, I was browsing through profiles on this site and I came across yours and it was very heart touching so I thought I should take my time out and write you something first and see where it goes and the reason why I'm writing you is b'cause I felt interested in your profile and I hope it doesn't bother you tht I write you and also to let you know that I'm serving here in Afghanistan and I will be returning back home in couple of months and if you have something you want to ask me and know more about me please hesitate to ask me anything you want to know about me as I will be very pleased to answer you and now a little about myself to you I'm Captain Hannett widow with two kid's that means the whole world to me and and I'm a very open minded person,someone who accepts people as they are, I am a fair individual who adapts to changes in life and enjoys life to the fullest I'm looking to meet a woman that I can spend and share the rest of my life with, I'm a God fearing man that seeks a God fearing woman in my life also a woman that believes in herself and I always put God first before herself. I pass through your profile and it was so lovely and sweet and seeing your profile I felt so much interested in you for friendship,love and longtime relationship and if along the road something more happened then we both sing praises song and give adoration unto his name and if you don't mind telling me more about yourself and I will do same in return too and get to know each other well and see where life and this will lead us to, I just join the site tonight and my pictures are still pending approval so if you don't mind reaching me through my e-mail address and I will send you some pictures of me and tell you more about myself there, But it's only God and time will tell so if you're still Interested in getting to know me well then you can reach me on my e-mail address and same as yahoo IM cpt.XXXX@yahoo.com, Thank you and have a good day.
I'm sure we've talked about this many times, but I so agree, Leigh. There can be little solice at the end of one's life, reflecting back with regrets and what if's. If it can be done, I would rather go ahead, than not...regardless of the outcome. If something is that important, it is worth the effort. The same with living together. And as years pass us by, why waste precious time. Too much to life to waste on one's own, though I would rather that than being in a dysfunctional relationship. I would never settle for the latter, just to be with someone.
