I discovered ...I'd take blue over pink any day. I discovered pink used to be used for a dusty yellow colour, from German 'pinkeln' meaning urine. It changed when the flowers called pinks, because of their 'pinked' petals, became popular. Fascinating, even if it turns out to be untrue.KirstenMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04460530603998948689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-16017010865053354892020-11-02T01:15:13.392+00:002020-11-02T01:15:13.392+00:00Blue is my favorite color and I am a girl (well, a...Blue is my favorite color and I am a girl (well, as in "old girl") and when people think blue is not for girls it makes me grumpy!kayThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16814148805700778532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-46005891198588373622020-11-02T00:06:35.398+00:002020-11-02T00:06:35.398+00:00What wonderful news at the end of such a lousy yea...What wonderful news at the end of such a lousy year! I am sure that all of us reading today are smiling with you. And I think that good news gave you a boost of energy. You have not sounded so positive about your day in a long time. We just turned our clocks back last night, and 5 o'clock today was a nasty surprise, why I don't know. Take care and stay safe.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312432060538126332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-68782966761435121572020-11-01T23:11:42.717+00:002020-11-01T23:11:42.717+00:00What joy to have so many great grandchildren.

After all Scotland have a Womens' Rugby Team. Perhaps one of your great-granddaughters might choose to play rugby...<br /><br />You solved the hap question for little Hamish with a pleasing juxtaposition of colours in stripes,, inspired by the national flag. Well, Scotland has the white saltaire on a blue background, the red lion rampant (with blue claws) on a yellow background and numerous tartans, not to mention the purple and green of the thistle. Oh! The possibilities! The delicious contemplation of yarn!<br /><br />Whatever you decide, it will be splendid.<br />Helen (anon) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-77544815259659724812020-11-01T20:16:45.473+00:002020-11-01T20:16:45.473+00:00To add to the thoughts re colds and viruses.

I read somewhere that the residents of an Antarctic research station had an outbreak of colds, some thing like twenty nine weeks into a period of work when the only contact with the outside world was by radio waves - no new people, no deliveries. So how can anyone avoid a virus anywhere, anytime? If it is ready to play, it will, and the only real answer is work on our immune system, eat good food, and live well. I think you do that Jean.<br />My what a veritable cascade of Great Grandchildren. Wonderful!jeanfromcornwallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10062674591619616456noreply@blogger.com
