Actually, the zany carters make a LOT more sense now. I'd never really thought it through before, but only a race who have sunlight all through the night ALL year round could come up with something like that!

Wow, what a great thing to have done! I have always wanted to record the stories my grandfather tells me, but just don't know how to ask. His life would make such a great book!
Your grandmother seems to have been very lucky to have made it through the war, and she looks like a really strong woman, a model to follow.

Speaking of, seeing as it's hit 33C, but the pool's only 20C, I'll think I'll slip into the 36C spa to warm up so that later I can get out and cool off. I'll have a ZCD as well, so that later/earlier on after the sensations wears off my brain will feel somewhat normal.

Cheers,
Marc
PS. bikini? Why? there's no guests around, so it's FREE THE GOOGLY BITS! time

Wow. Impressive restraint! I just tend to... well... go for it. Then apologise to all the offended people later.

BTW, I bought a breadmaker a couple of months ago. Hot darn, I never realised what I was missing! The thing makes gorgeous huge loaves which people LOVE. Which I love, and I've never been a huge fan of bread. I add linseed sunflower and almond meal, and quinoa flour, and chickpea flour, and nuts and fruit and spices.... *droooool*
