I too found great relaxation birdwatching especially waders back in the 1990s. Saved me actually.
Best wishes in maintaining your wellbeing.

Great picture, lovely dogs.

18 probably, start of a slow process.
Now in my late seventies.
Settled down with a partner in my late twenties. etcetera.

Exceptionally recognisable to those charged with the responsibility of feeding cats, in reality dogs are not much better but they at least show gratitude.

As I understand it unless you are an indigenous Native American all the rest of the population are immigrants whether recent or descendants of immigrants. That includes Trump.

Maybe a little stroll in the region of the Tuileries?

True.

He is so very doglike

I misread that and thought it was queer on queer voice. Quite different!

That's how I first found out about masturbation aged 8 or 9

Sad reading this. Our friends are so much part of us.

Private practice dentistry is expensive to provide resulting in many not having access.
A recognition of the poverty levels in the UK would hopefully result in a service being available for those affected.

Dentistry is an expensive service especially now with the availability of advanced techniques. successive governments have reorganised to reduce costs to the exchequer under the cloak of "improving" provision.
These have been singular failures.
Patients find in many areas the only service is none.

Your comments are valid as a consequence of your personal experience.
My comments would be different but still valid expressed from my experiences as a patient.
I would have other views based on my professional life, also valid.
Your solution however is unlikely to to be applicable as I see it.

Looking good on your 36th birthday. Many happy returns.

I want to say something to you about your grief, loss of knowing your dad as a man but I struggle with knowing what. All that I know of you I know via your presence here and that means all I can offer is respect for your loss. Treat yourself kindly.

Sorry you are nervous but there is no need to be because you are genuinely gorgeous and that picture is so attractive.

The people's front of Judea / Judean popular front / etc.

A dark haired French speaking Belgian would I expect have hair the texture the same as a dark haired Irish person who has the same pale skin. The East Asian type black hair ( and pubic hair ) I can only comment on the basis of more limited personal exposure albeit favourably.

Very obviously so but they are getting better at deliberate cruelty.

If only I had something to say...

Your work rate is prolific on here, you keep me informed about so much that's happening in the world. Thank you.

A society of like minded gentlemen similar in concept to The Athaneum.

Sharing that sentiment.

I feel both sad and disappointed by this government I voted for, the betrayal of core values of equality and decency are beyond belief.
The causes and perpetrators of that shift need to be identified and understood so that we will not make the same mistake again.

Looking so serene.
