Nooooooooooooooo you never babble your words are great to read <img src="http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/black/t1607.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":cool1" title="Cool1    :cool1" data-shortname=":cool1" />Yes we do say Mum and Dad.  Or is either of them misbehave then I call them Mother or Father in a jokey way <img src="http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0208.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lol:" title="lol    :lol:" data-shortname=":lol:" />Yes [USER=11]@Michelle Stevens[/USER]  adventures with her plants are wonderful to read, I've become very fons of them.   I'm still hoping she will turn her words into books one day.I'm so thrilled you read all that  and got it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />I'm trying to recall how we started  watching the eagles together?     from I can remember I think I told [USER=11]@Michelle Stevens[/USER]  how I used to watch a web-cam about Owls .. which then led to Lovely Michelle introducing me to the eagles.Oh I know what you mean.  I tried getting one of my friends interested in the eagles and she just wasn't interested.    They don't know what they are missing DFF <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite13" alt=":hide:" title="Hide    :hide:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":hide:" />Yes you're completely right it is so easy to mis-understand what someone is saying  when its in the written word and thats one of the reasons I often use emojis .. I probably over-use them sometimes, I just love emojis <img src="http://yoursmiles.org/tsmile/music/t4217.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":loony:" title="Loony    :loony:" data-shortname=":loony:" /> .     I must say though,  its very decent and kind of you to say you wouldnt consider me offending anyone, especailly after I once pushed you off a cliff <img src="http://yoursmiles.org/ssmile/fun/s0228.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":lmao:" title="LMAO    :lmao:" data-shortname=":lmao:" />Oh wow!  wow!  wow!  :hats: ..
