Horizondave Posted June 9, 2020 Share Posted June 9, 2020 (edited) Not watching the news today......every time I turn on the TV it is wall to wall funeral of George Floyd. I turned the channel and it was on BBC, AL Jazeera and SKY. I think what took place in Minnesota was so wrong but the culprits have been locked up and will be charged but this woke media reaction is just about making me tear my hair out. For me there are far more important things than seeing a poster of George Floyd with angel wings and a halo. What has happened to the world I live in........I suppose there are many here who would be happy for me to be left behind in this new world.

Then you also have that barricades have had to put up around the Cenotaph and Churchill's statue to protect them. Unbelievable.

boydeste Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Watching the final frame of the whole snooker comp to see who wins. Quite surreal for it to come down to the last frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackface, Yellowface, it all will be looked at, hope they don't get rid of my beloved El Cid just because Czech born Herbert Lom played Ben Yusef........sad times.

Krapow Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Trying to plan and buy for a small outside socially distanced 4th birthday party for my daughter on the 20th. Just be literally outside of where we live, with the neighbours and their kids who she has been playing with each day anyway. Sa would normally cook satay, sticky rice etc, but i'll just be buying a nice biggish personalised birthday cake that can be shared with everyone, and some small presealed packs of sweets or crisps, some balloons etc. Weather looks okay for it so far, one of the neighbours has table she's going to bring out and we can put things on, get a little music. We had planned it to be in Thailand with all her cousins, aunt, uncles etc, but that's not to be! 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightcrawler Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Tidying the bedroom, changing bed linen, I have stood the dirty shirts up against the wall for now. It was like a Turkish brothel.😄 Organising my summer clothes which are the same as last summer but two sizes top big for me. Don't fancy going to M&S when they open but I desperately need some new clothes.. Down to a 32 inch waist now. Filling plastic bags up to drop off at a charity shop when they open again 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
