They wonder why we are sometimes referred to as 'grumpy' ha ha!

What a lovely blog. Thank you for sharing the moment. I could really feel it and will recognise next time I find myself in that place.- View 1 reply

Yes I get all of this. I can be in several different places throughout the day, and the mornings can be one of the most pleasant at times because I no longer wake to the sound of an alarm and then a morning… Read more

Good
morning all. Dawn chorus a bit lack lustre today. Looks like even the birds have
a lie in now and again. I’m sure they will be all the better for it later on. -

Good Morning! Yes, sometimes it is a good morning. I’m on the decking with my first coffee of the day.. The sky is clear apart from a few puffy clouds drifting across the sky. There is a slight breeze, not cold, just fresh enough to waken the senses. The large sycamore tree at the end of the garden is taking on a green optimistic hue, a sign of…

What a beautiful account of a lovely morning. Thank you for sharing. You write so well . Have you thought of writing in blogs. They then stay around for ever and are kept in your profile. Such lovely words should be read many times. 🙏 @HMStanley

In the whole world am I the only one awake? I’ll just have to talk to myself. At least it will be an intelligent conversation.

I’ve been on the site for three days. I’m floundering my way around and failing to connect. I’ve been to the lobby a lot, its always empty. Am I doing something wrong?

Hiya. You’re not doing anything wrong but it’s likely that the times you’ve been in the Lobby chat room is when very few or anyone is online at the time. You’ll find the Music chat room has more visitors than the Lobby but again it just depends on the time of day. If you pop some posts – like this one you have here now – on the main page,…

Thanks for that. I’ll persevere. You might be right about the times, I’m almost nocturnal by nature. Just one question, I know it sounds stupid, what’s the main page?

Good Morning @HMStanley 😊 I was curious as to your ‘handle’ 🤔 It reminded me of the destroyer that was torpedoed In WW2. One poor soul aboard met his end having survived the sinking of the Arc Royal. Do you have any connection to the British Navy, if you don’t mind my asking ?
-
Hi. You are the first person to have responded to me. I only joined last night. Thank you. Good guess, yes I was an engineer in the Navy for the early part of my career but that is not the reason I picked HMStanley as my handle. Henry Morton Stanley is a hero of mine. Not many people know the name but many are familiar with what he said. He is…
