I do not understand this post, if you look at the previous poster Loves Tulips they state very succinctly the benefits of having a pet. How does one acquire it other than through adoption , from either a shelter or a breeder. So many animals are homeless and it is up to us as humans to help as...

Thank you this is what I imagine And it looks awful. I dunk biscuits in my tea and I pour gravy over roast beef. I find this a very interesting thread in the fact that each country has names for foods that are alien to others. What I mean is toad in the hole, if you are not English you might not...

Well said, thank you

I do not think that all provinces are equal in regards to our health care system. I am surprised that you do not pay on a sliding scale for a visit from the PSW. You were very fortunate , a very positive outcome but I think you paint too rosy a picture of Canada‘s heath care system. I live in...

I believe that we start to lose muscle mass after the age of 50. I went to YouTube and found a couple of physio videos that I liked that gave simple exercises for building strength in one’s legs. I’ve had 3 falls in the past 6 months, the first I ended up kissing the pavement, no idea how it...

Not only from the UK, oh yes I am from the UK but live in Canada. I’ve never heard of sausage gravy, when I do think of sausages and gravy it’s toad in the hole, delicious. Biscuits? Could someone please explain, are they like scones?

Your dad sounds like a wonderful man, lucky you, and lucky him that you can all live together in harmony. And dogs, heaven.

I have watched CS since it started when I was a child with breaks in between but always able to catch up. Last summer I was so done with the story lines that I stopped watching it. Two weeks ago I watched the show and started again but last week I found myself getting very tense, yes, the...

Two months on, was there a good outcome to this situation or did she just leave you alone?

If I was in your situation I would be very concerned, this knowledge is now out there in the public domain. It is certainly a beautiful piece, might you like to donate it to the museum while you are still on earth, there you could view it while still alive and be happy that it is giving others...

Is this a stock photo?

Thank you, I thought that I was the only one .I also changed to a station that I don't usually listen to until that station also started playing christmas music, so now I listen to CD's in the car. I like to listen to the radio indoors but until the christmas music stops probably around the...

I have a dog and cat who will go with my daughter if I pass away before them. Our strata has changed the bylaw to allow 2 cats so I am hoping to foster which in turn will give my cat company. I cannot ask my daughter to look after 3. As a senior I don't think we should be put off by not getting...

He's lovely do you have him in your garden? Certainly a lot cheaper than the real thing but I would have both. I actually have 2 metal cats in my garden.

I love you tube for fixing stuff, documentaries, right now though my favourites are "a chick called Albert" this gentleman, such a kind , caring man. "Rewilding Jude" this young man took himself to the wilds of Scotland, bought himself a house and taught himself DIY, he's grown a garden ...
