@Former-Member @Former-Membersure she'll share if she feels like it.She did a few days ago by referring to an historical event. And no 'she's not the 'cat's mother' Not my place to say as Sylvester hasn't been playing too well with Tweety and other character from same show ..

Lovely interpretation @TAB LOL

.. @Sylvesterdunno where it started off, but as thinking what to write, it grew into well, that lol

Hi @Former-Member@Former-Member

Could it be that I just like the sound of it - felt it might suit a Roman Centurion or something

Actually - for my son - who died 3 decades ago last July - still just a month since the anniversary - and also yes - I have surived many decades and when I go back across my life I have lived in many different places and seen many different events of historical significance.

One was the day the King died - and Harold Holt drowned - and JFK was assassinated.

And who could forget 9/11 - and Bali - Hiroshima and many other things - people who were rightly or wrongly incriminated - Schappell Corby - Ronald Ryan. The Day the West Gate Bridge fell and severe bushfires - one of which I was was far too close to

And many great days too - The Coronation of Queen Elizabeth, the Melbourne Olympics, TV - then coloured TV here in Australia - the Bicentenial in 1988 - and so many other events

The day I was married - the day my son was adopted and my daughter was born - my divorce - when I graduated from university - and these things are only the top of the icing - there are many stories in my life

And yes @Former-Member - it is good to have dropped in and found this thread - even though the feast was over before I came in

@Former-Member .. Hi. When I was about 12, on farm, I used to go and talk. to the cows. The Friesian, re pic was called Frederieke. She used to lick me when I patted her .. Gisella, the other milker, was a bit more standoffish, well she was a Jersey lol

Hi @Decadian. I hope I didn't offend you. Ages ago I remember highlighting your name and selecting define but it didn't yield any results. I've since learned I can't do that on this site. I just googled it and learned the meaning of decadian. I understand the significance of it for you now, I always had a feeling there was something significant behind it. Thanks for sharing it with us. Best wishes 💜😊

@TAB what a lovely memory to have!

I adore cows, I think they are just the most gorgeous animals.

I have a similar memory! Although I was never lucky enough to *live* on a farm. Did you live on a property with them, or were they just near by? When I was very little I went on holiday with my mum and my cousin to a farm in the the south-west of Victoria by the beach. It was my responsibility as an 8 year old to take care of the newborn calves I used to love how they would suck on your hands and run to you when they saw you come by the barn!!

So started my love of the beatiful creatures 🙂

The quote itself "concealed cows" is from a TV show called "Firefly".

Ah @Former-Member

I am very hard to offend - I remember telling someone during a Night Shift Chat one night - mostly my son is the reason I chose the name - 3 decades is a long time
