And there are some who still live in Burma who I've never met. As for my paternal family, I'm in touch with one or two but haven't seen most of them for over thirty years. <br /><br />I must admit to having a soft spot for seedy towns and love the edges of cities for that non establishment feel they exude. I do love it when I find somewhere that does good coffee though!<br /><br />Constance ~ how nice of you to return the visit. I can never resist joining in, however slightly, with a birthday! Glad you like the name, I heard my son using it when he was a student and though it suited me perfectly!<br /><br />I hope your wrist is healing well.Erylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008344023000459577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-66010469204187040222010-07-28T03:00:23.937+01:002010-07-28T03:00:23.937+01:00It is great to find you here.

I haven't had one for a while as my extended family is scattered all over the world.<br /><br />It's great when some tatty old place full of greasy spoons suddenly goes upmarket and gets itself some interesting shops and eateries.

However, I am also a mac user (my drug of choice) and have <i>apple, shift, 3</i>'d thanks to Kass and found it works perfectly.

I spotted it whilst out having a fag in the garden on Sunday morning, my relatives seemed to think me slightly bonkers for taking photos of it, but it was either that or sneaking it into my bag which would have caused the rabbit a problem.<br /><br />Parsnip ~ I always think of Dick van Dyke when someone uses the word blimey. The proper term is 'cor blimey' but I'm too lazy to use the whole thing.<br /><br />Kass ~ me too, I love my mac but didn't know how to do a screen shot until you shared your recipe.<br /><br />Alesa ~ :)Erylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06008344023000459577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463471462522424732.post-16102938961575190132010-07-27T08:48:05.096+01:002010-07-27T08:48:05.096+01:00@Kass: Nodnod, yeah those are screen caps (screen ...@Kass: Nodnod, yeah those are screen caps (screen capture).

Of course, that doesn't mean you won't know them.
