😄 (laughing)

Croixy do you not know what the emojis are because on a PC they don't come out clear enough? Bit of a nuisance that. This one has the cutest shape mouth laughing and very slightly reddened cheeks. The artist or digital artist is very good these are the most descriptive visually I've ever seen. So much detail in the tiniest area. They're cute as.

My high spirits was mania. Wow got a lot of jobbies done :D- wide mouth smile for anyone who doesn't know. I'm usually much the same but mania gives that extra dose of ecstasy

Poor man backs are SO painful aren't they, they're our largest and I guess main body support. I can relate, lately I can only stand for short periods of time. Glad it was worth the effort. Well done pushing through Mr

Ok so I spoke to my partner in crime...Mrs Beautiful they call her. Her Alias is Grandy and real names Sweetyheart...hard to keep up isnt it. We've decided to take a chunk of NZ lol at your suggest and sew them together so we can have there for summer and yours for winter. Loven the heated iceberg

Sounds like something to look forward too, the trip to NZ when it happens. It's a beautiful country as here is too. Pristine water views and the hills and Green grass are beautiful. Did you notice the milks good. I guess down too Green healthy grass.

Cool about the Wrens I'll squiz them. Well done with emoji. Love when you throw one in

I'm not at all a politics person but I will say I was extremely impressed and proud of NZ taking on GST as I was when later Howard did too here. Huge change like that takes enormous courage to cop the stink from people not accepting change well. It worked for NZ I don't know about here.

Hope your days a good one Mr and all & that everyone can search out at least one reason to smile today ☺

🐧 (cutest little penguin ever which as Grandy saids the closest to a Walrus here)

Go easy peeps ⚘

Dear Moon~

>too sad for me I'm afraid

"and if you want to be covered in roses
All that you see is in gray
If you're really depressed,
Come dance the Sirtaki

Part of the English translation of Nana Mouskouri - Danse Le Sirtaki - which you will recognize as "Zorba"

It deals with loosing unhappiness in the dance, not a bad way to deal with things.

Dear EM~

> Then there was Riverdance - woah

I always thought it a great pity they never realized volume 2 of the Irish dancing manual, entitled " What to do with your hands and arms" was missing
