Thanks

Hi Croix, tealflowers, & all,

Croix, was the link to your post in 'Store Your Happy Memories Here', the one tealflowers could not make work? I opened it on my PC, & had a lovely few minutes reading about your first trip to the cinema. Like magic, eh?

 

& Croix, "I stir to please" - mmMekitty (you may quote)

I wonder, how fast does a walrus run on those flippers, & are they able to climb trees? 😺

 

Hello Moon. 😺 You must have posted while I was typing. Tha's okay, 'cause I can still say 'Hello' separately, special-like, just to you. ❤️

I wouldn't expect actors to launch into the dialogue they had while in character for a series, film, play or anything. It's always good to hear when they are polite & kind when people meet them in public.

I've often thought being publically recognised & treated as some public figures & celebrities, musicians, sports players, & others are treated would be so awful to me - I never want to be famous.

I think that aspect of it, the expectation many people seem to share that these people can't expect to have private lives, really horrible.

I applaud John Iman & otheres for keeping their temper as well as they do.

It's okay, Moon, to take your time, & slowly get used to this new forum. I think if you continue to log in occasionally, find one or two Discussions, (like this one), & read back, using the page navigation, just one or two pages, to catch up, & then, if you want, post a bit. I imagine that will seem like quite enough for one day. Later, as you get used to that, you might stretch out & do more here again, because I predict your anxiety will ease, just coming here a little, & not pushing too hard, stopping when your anxiety needs some relief.

I think many people will understand, maybe feeling very much like you are, too.

I'm so glad to see you here today. 😸

mmMekitty

Warmly

Dear Moon~

But I have revealed your secret, that you are the billionaire heiress to the biscuit perfume fortune, so I guess the place you feel safest on your modest 300 meter yacht as Cannes.

 

Actually mmMekitty has the right idea, just pace yourself, if you remember it took a long time to become comfortable when you first came here, but it did. This time will be a lot shorter as you get more used ot things. After all you are still dealing with the same friendly bunch.

 

I think it a pity you do not write a book abut all the interesting and famous people you have met, it would be absorbing reading, seeing the other side of people who have been in the public eye.

 

After all as OW said:"I never travel without my diary. One should always have something sensational to read..."

Dear mmMekitty and All~

Yes that period was the happiest in my childhood staying in Wales with my grandparents, and I wrote about it a fair bit, it was a pleasure. It actually came about because there was another poster, Gruffudd who came from the same area and we'd swap stories.

 

You do indeed "stir to please", however I suspect the one you are pleasing is YOU! I never realized before I met you felines can snigger.

Walruses can womp along quite smartly on their flippers, but not as fast as cheeky cats (unfortunately) and I've no idea if they can climb trees, there are none on my iceberg.

Treeless Iceberg? I shall have to remedy that. After all, I will need somewhere to hand these mysterious 🎐 (windchimes, or so my PC says), & my hammock.

With my new chemistry set, I can surely develop Giant Sunflowering Cycad Trees, which will be blooming in no time, as the days grow longer. I expect they will be in full, & perpetual bloom during the last two & a haf weeks of December through to the end of the second week of January, every year. They will have seeds the size of my cute little pointy-eared head (& just as tasty, once you remove the whiskers).

No need to thank me; it's my pleasure.

😸Like the quote from OW. He certainly was a wit.

If my stirring didn't please me first, would I be imagining it might just give you a litte chuckle? If only for a few seconds you have a chuckle, that is surely better than if you don't.

❤️s & hugzies to you, Mrs C & cats.

hi all. sorry i haven't been on the forums much. been struggling a lot mentally.

Dear Tayla~

Please beleive me, there is absolutely nothing to feel in the least bad about. You post when you want to, there is no need to feel there is any expectation on you (or anyone else for that matter) to post or keep a conversation going.

 

If you feel good and want to say something that's great. If you prefer to be silent that's fine.  Being here (and life I guess) is not always an easy ride and we know and appreciate that.

 

Plus it is a fact some people can find more to talk about than others  (not that I'm pointing a flipper at anyone in particular:).

 

If you want to do something really useful why not tell mmMekitty she is not allowed to plant shrubbery on my iceberg! The roots will make it crack into little bits and my igloo wil sink:(

 

You will always be welcome

Hello tealflowers. It's okay to keep your thoughts to yourself. I am glad to see your post - it tells me you are here. That way, I can imagine you are on my sofa, maybe using your phone, watching a video, or playing some word games in BB Social Zone, or something, & you have your ear buds in your ears, & when you finish, & maybe get up & wander about a bit, & then we share a late-night cuppa... 😺

I'm gonna invite Croix & Mrs C & the cats to join us.

& Croix, I've just thought, a Pineapple-Cycad would be better.  & Croix, you know they grow very slowly, so the iceberg will adapt.

Sleep well, Tealflowers. Croix, & everyone.

Hugzies? ❤️s all round.

mmMekitty

thank you Croix & mmMekitty. sometimes reading too much can get a bit overwhelming for me & i don't have the best concentration. but sometimes i can read a lot & not get overwhelmed. so if my replies are short & blunt, i apologise.

Hi tealflowers, was what I wrote here just before, too much? I'm asking, how much reading would be too much?

Thanks for the explanation - no need for apology. I appreciate what you have said about your difficulties concentrating sometimes. It's okay.

Goodnight, now... 🙀💤
