Count Your Blessings

[BrianH]

I just wanted to share this with you as it is quite relevant and really does make you think about how fortunate we are.

With all the news lately about sub-zero temperatures, global warming, the hurricanes that America is experiencing and recent mud slides in the Middle East and South America, we shouldn't forget that UK has its share of devastating weather too - especially the night before last.

Attached is a photo illustrating the damage caused to my friend's home in Tunbridge Wells, Kent from the recent storm that passed through. It really makes you cherish what you have, and reminds us here in Banstead not to take things too much for granted.

Dubya has sent his top man ("Brownie") to Kent to oversee clean-up operations.

I do hope this tragedy hasn't affected them too much. Was the chair insured?

But what happened to the occupant of the chair Brian? h34r:

 

[Griffin]

Just noticed that my garden chairs are almost the same as your friends. If Ella would shift her arse, I'm sure we could donate one, perhaps one without teeth marks on the corner :lol:

Lovely looking pooch you have there Griffin. Was Ella waiting for her dinner to be served?

:lol: Not at all, Ella just likes to sit on chairs in the style of a human :lol: There is a bench in the woods where I sit down for a few minutes quiet contemplation and watch my other two dogs charging around while lazy Ella sits down on the bench next to me
