OK, Lee, we'll talk about other things... It's cold here today, about 13, same as you. I'm sorry you can't keep a heater in your room. 😞 @Lee71 Also that you're really cold today - are you under a blanket? Do you have a hot coffee?
@Lee71 wrote:What do you collect @NatureLover
If I do cups and @Shaz51 does teapots
I have hoarding disorder that I've battled hard to get on top of, so I "collect" too much in general. Pieces of paper in particular.

You are so lucky @Shaz51 must be in northern Australia somewhere..
I would be ok with 20, but 27 would be divine.

27 sounds blissful, @Shaz51 ... but I couldn't handle the humidity in summer.

@Shaz51 @NatureLover
I had coffee this morning but can't really be bothered making another one and yes I'm under a blanket.
What did you want to talk about? The colour chart ?
Have you seen it @Shaz51
In response to: Re: My only safe place aka my fortress
NatureLoverSenior Contributor
I'm glad you're under a blanket at least, Lee 🙂
No, we don't need to talk about the colour chart if you don't want...although showing it to @Shaz51 might be good...
I want to ask you something. I want to know what to be wishing for you, when I think of you in future... and I mean, things other than what the first song said. Can you think of anything you'd be prepared to share with me? Or is it all too dark at the moment to see anything else but what the first song said?
