Re: Favourite Airports

Alisoncc's photo reminds me of the old terminal on the island of Naxos. It had a dog section next to it ;called a kennel. The public address system was an employee sticking his or her head out of the office and shouting the announcement!

Sounds like you could write a very interesting book about your experiences! I've enjoyed reading your posts very much.

Re: The supernatural

As a retired nurse could bore all with numerous stories. Best one concerns a hospital side room which only male patients could be put in. Any female patients would awaken with their bedclothes floating above them. A Psychic patient reckoned a male patient had died there and just liked to have a look...

Re: Domestic Technology

Inherited very thirsty bulbs when we bought our house in Bots which strained the 12 volt system. Now mostly LED'S which are much better!

And I always thought that Koala bears were cute and cuddly, how wrong can you be? Just been informed by my husband that they are pretty nasty actually.

Re: Dealing With Creepy Crawlies

As a child hated spiders but years of living in Greece and Bots now protect them! We also have several resident Turner's gheckos which are also good at munching unwanted insects!

Re: J7 Submarine built around by Yacht Club

Are people allowed to enclose such wrecks in this way in Australia? If so such a shame especially for enthusiastic divers who are also interested in history.

Re: The really boring and totally pointless snippets thread 1

:D Hello tried to say so earlier but my gizmo compounded slow WI-FI with updates without telling me! Decided to bypass the arrival lounge and swim to the ship. Just boarded and presently by life boat 5 looking to see if we have a ship's cat!
