    And this is how Cher performs ABBA - I think she is great.

    I saw this on the BBC special last night. She looked great.
    He had been wanting to make a performance with her for many years but she has been very reluctant to return to the stage, she is very shy. So this was a happy moment for both of them.

    They made great music together. It took longer for them to be appreciated in Sweden, that's how we were then, but then it all exploded and still does. I have just finished watching a concert with their music performed by other artists - I think other interpretations make their music even better. Björn and Benny still make very good music, especially Benny Andersson.

    I’m sorry but they’re a damn nuisance around here and are not welcome in my garden or my allotment. They kill anything that moves and crap in my vegetable beds.

    They’re best suited to farms and yards to control the mice and rats, otherewise best kept in peoples apartments with a litter tray.
    I believe you, cats should live in an environment suitable for them. My daughter's cat Myzan lives in a apartment but wants to go outside usually twice a day. She has a litterbox but prefers to use open fields, never flowerbeds. She never tears or breaks anything, she is very careful.

    They teach us about unconditional love.

    Unfortunately, some people just can't learn.
    Cats are emotional and intuitive, and wonderful to people who treat them well and let them live their lives in peace - they sleep a lot (my daughter says sleep 20 hours, rest 4 hours), eat what they prefer, neglect other food, come and go as they please. 🙂

    I just looked out the window and low and behold…snow😡 Pretty sure it’ll be gone in no time as the temp is heading to 5C today.🤞
    I called off the window-cleaner this morning because of the rain, and next opportunity will be 16th April.

    No probs. I noticed “someone” dropped the ball and I ordered 3 more cases, which should be arriving shortly.👍
    Well, until they do, I'm not letting go of that bottle, you know.

    Why of course and to complement that might I suggest a nice bottle/glass of Châteauneuf-du-pape?🍷👍
    What?!! We only have that bottle, the rest is gone.

    Stees,
    Are you enjoying the Spring Snow?..... So far ours is coming down and melting, I hope it stay that way as we are suppose to have more tomorrow. I have an 8:00 a.m. appointment to get blood work done. It is suppose to continue into Saturday. Our weather is very unpredictable all it would take is a temperature drop and we wind up with 15 or 20 cm's of snow.

    -VR
    We still have snow now and then and I'm expecting the window-cleaner. 🙂

    Parenting is too important to be left to young people. Young people should be forbidden to make babies (let them have as much sex as they want, with contraceptives).

    Children need to learn limits. They must be taught to respect rules and authority, but without violence or physical punishment. Otherwise they grow up socio-paths, like Donald Trump.
    Children need, as you say, rules and consistency which I wasn't clear about. I was an only child, my mother had many siblings. She used to say about my children when they were difficult to handle, 'as long as they don't turn criminal they will be fine'. 🙂 That may seem a low bar, I thought so at the time, but most things turn out well in the long run.

    "Give the children love, more love and still more love – and the common sense will come by itself."
    Astrid Lindgren - the author of Pippi Longstocking among other beautiful books.
