PalmaShell Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Just got home from the hospital after getting covid. I haven't been able to post my gifts and currently don't know where they were put while I was in hospice. Will be back in a few days once I can find them and rest.

Very glad that you're finally home. I was beginning to get worried. Blimey! Five weeks in hospital, that must have been horrible and scary. Take your time, Joseph, get yourself strong again.

fifbrindacier Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Thanks Adam, for all you did. There have been really nice gifts that year, Don would surely have been proud of it.I'll be here for the next appointment with Santa Claus. If i'm still there : i've lately watched two movies, Post Impact and Green Land, in which a comet falls upon France ! On one of them the Tour Eiffel had melted and on the other Belgium and France were under meters of ice with -52° celsius during the day ! Can you imagine ? No more Beret, french cheese, strikes, french wines, foie gras and baguette ! 1 "On ne voit bien que par le coeur, l'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux."

Tidgy's Dad Posted February 2, 2021 Author Share Posted February 2, 2021 Last week I received a couple of rather late Christmas cards. But still very much appreciated. Love the family collage, Ralph, nice looking family. @Nimravis And Tidgy loves the Santa Tortoise, as do I, Bobby. @Bobby Rico Thank you both very much, my friends, I will display them for a month or so, they re too nice to put away now. 2 Life's Good!

PalmaShell Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 Thanks Tiggy and Scylla, Haven't had a chance to take photos yet. Unfortunately a close friend (practically a brother) passed on Thursday and we've been kind of dealing with that as well. Here are the photos as promised. Late but here they are. Thank you all for your patience and understanding. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fossilis Willis Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 I have never been one to shy away from low hanging fruit (heck, I'll even go for windfall). Could it @Scylla?
