There is another woman - a Jew, living in Liverpool, who hates the Israeli state. She is very sharp and knows a lot too.

I even heard ballie for balaclavas on the TV. People were wearing them at some sort of demonstration in the city centre!

No, Cal is short for Pascale but lots of words get shortened and have ie added here : Poey for Post Office, Offie for Off Licence etc.

My son's dog is usually called Cal, or Callie, for short. This is Liverpool!

My son has a dog named Pascale. Its mother had the same name as Pascale's mother in France, which I have forgotten.

If you get a female cat will you call it Clothilde?

I just asked why he was wearing his slippers before I saw this. Dork is putting it politely!

Why is he still wearing his slippers?

Great idea but please be careful not to overdo it!

I knew you were very close. The sun was shining on that April day in 1963!

@ladybaroness.bsky.social My sister was born at home in Alexandra Road. My brother and I had been taken to play at our grandparents' house in Maple Drive and my dad came to collect us when she had been born. He took us home to see her!

Yes, you will be feeling a mixture of relief as well as of unbearable loss. It will get easier.

She had had a very hard life and wanted to go in the end. She refused an experimental new treatment which her Consultant wanted to give her. 😢

Yes, I got into Clannad and Irish folk music later.
I absolutely love this, for instance:

When I was a teenager, I had an Classics for Pleasure LP of Mediaeval Christmas Music. I loved it. You can't get it now. CfP LPs were about £1.25 each whereas normal LPs were £3.50 or more!

Yes, my sister was four years younger than me. I remember the day she was born. I never thought she would die before me.

I am so sorry, Fluffy. I lost my sister in 2012. I know what you are going through. 💔

There are three accounts on there which I interact with. One of the women is very correct in everything she says and does, another woman likes swearing and is very bright. The third is Bonnie Greer!

Yes. Mozart was writing his most advance music as he wrote his Requiem while he was dying too but I think my tutor was talking about academic life.

Oh, I know. There are no good options here. There is opposition to Trump in the US but we don't hear about it in the UK. I cannot stand him either. He makes my flesh creep.
