The BB cafe

The BB cafe is open for business!
Welcome all to a new chill and chat place for everyone on the forum.

The BB cafe is whatever you want it to be. There are comfy sofas, tables and chairs, coffee machines, a kitchen stocked with everything. There's a pool outside, a bbq area, an annexe with comfy beds for a quiet sleep, tv, dvd, books and whatever else you would like to have here.

Most of all, it's a place to meet friends and fellow travellers for a bit of company. Talk over problems, tell jokes, share your day, escape into a world of your making. Grab a coffee and pull up a chair ... 

So, with a nod to the wonderful Carole King (Hard Rock Cafe) ...

Now if you're feeling just a little bit lonely
Don't sit at home just mopin'
Come on down to where the friendship flows freely
You know the door is always open

At the BB cafe
Come to the BB cafe
They will help keep your blues at bay

Good morning everyone,

This morning I feel like having eggs, fried, with something... I'm undecided. I'll have to look in my freezer & see what I find. I don't want to, because I woke up feeling very cold, & I'm still trying to feel warm, & don't want to make my hands feel cold again by rummaging in my freezer.

The sun is not shining brightly into my window. Thin cloud or fog - I can't tell. Weather bureau said cloudy, & 21°C, maybe a few showers.

Hope you all have a pleasant day, with minimal stress & find some discover something new to excite your mind.

better luck next time monkey_magic 🙂 I was also expecting a coupon draw but didn't win anything. hope there are some bigger prizes waiting for us🙏🏼

Mekitty good evening, it's been cold and wet out here. Time to get a new electric blanket? 🙂

who am I kidding, a missed chance for a brand new car is totally a different thing. I'm sorry to hear that monkey_magic, I'm the one who never put high hopes on winning big prizes...

Hello All, back to the scammers, when you normally pick up the phone, you say 'hello' straight away, but when a scammer rings you there is no hello until at least a few seconds after you pick up the phone, as the call is from o/s or an unknown area, so end the call and then block the number.

Also be careful of someone posing to be with Microsoft telling you that your computer has plenty of viruses and you need to delete them, so they will do this for you and then ask for details of your credit card, or say it will cost $350 for them to delete, this is just a scam to get your money.

It's impossible for them to know so don't give out any details to them and then block the number.

Geoff.

Thanks Geoff😺.

I think I had one the other day, of the first you mention. When I answered, expecting a call from someone, but not havin their number, I took a chance ... ought to have left it & then they would have got the option to leave a voice mail. The impulse to answer is so strong.... but when they didn't say hello or who they were, I'd repeated, 'hello', & only heard the sound of a woman's breath, & then they hung up. 😸Well, that I blocked that one straight away.

Keep warm, & dry,

Hi all,

Just curious what other people's thoughts are on decaf coffee? Yay or nay? Maybe hot chocolate instead?
