Well, the snow has finally come and Molly loved it when I let her out this morning. It wasn't much though and it has nearly gone now. I was a bit concerned earlier on when I had to drive the car up the drive but it went ok. I shall leave it on the road tonight, just in case. We live in a cul de sac so it should be alright.

I don’t like the way things are going. All these silly laws and people getting offended left, right and centre and yet I feel we are becoming an insular and uncaring society. :sad:

Unfortunately this is where the last three elections and one referendum has left us.😕😕
Who knows were we will be in the next decade , I have my fingers crossed for the world to swing back and people will start to be nice and have empathy with people less lucky in life than themselves. 😀
If not a house move will become a necessity either Scotland or Ireland .
Any advice on the best places to live in Scotland, mo ? 😀😀

Tattoos.

Is it just me?
I really don't like them and can't understand why anyone would plaster themselves with ugly identifying marks.
When I grew up, the only people with visible tattoos were criminals and members of the armed services.
The sight of young women, particularly, covered in highly visible tattoos just turns my stomach.
How can they expect not to be judged?

+1 for the bolded bit

They were quite a thing in high society at one stage, even King George V had one. On another topic, Boob enhancement. When Mrs Tenkaykev was working on the elderly care ward in our local Hospital she had more than one elderly lady with their bodies showing the inevitable signs of age but still with a quite impressive pair of boobs 😮

so, is that a plus, or, a minus ? ;)
 
After Grandkid sitting we went to a few shops on the way home - shopping centre place near home

Nearly went thingy over whatsit in the car park due to ice

WHen we got home and turned into the estate it was a good job I was going dead slow as the turn didn;t go as I instructed the steering wheel to do!!!
