sentence 1 - if only idiots wouldn't keep voting them in
sentence 2 - and respect!

Sleep well!

Well! We've just had our "budget" and as I'm not into the pro's and con's
It's be like all the others over "my" time for commoners

WE give with this handbut! WE take away with this hand
Pensioners like me etcyou'll get "this amount" in April (oh
BUT! <evilgrinyour gonna lose "X" amount elsewhere

3 quid up3 quid down as per!

That sounds complicated.

Without ANY disrespect to anyone

(our slang/terminology etc) Basically it means:-

(copied)
The Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines an "Indian giver" as "a person who gives something to another and then takes it back or expects an equivalent in return.

In our government terms NOT equivalent - THEY want a few pence more than they give

As long as you don't repeat that phrase around any Native Americans - they'll probably beat you up - I see what you mean. They rob Peter to pay Paul, is what we say. They do that here, too.

Although good news for us - our tax guy filed a return for Elektra that will get us more money from the government incentive programmes.

Peter/Paul we have the same saying.

Elektra (both of you) and extra cash

alas! I'm away t'kip, I've got to spend some cash out tomorrow and I'm going to have to cry myself to sleep



take care both

You, too!

"captcha" has got it wrong again it asked for palm trees and not one of them had fingers on

Guess what. It's snowing.

I checked yesterday: they say, no snow.

I looked out the window: snow.

I checked the weather: suddenly, it said 'snow'.

But we got our errands done, and Lola the doglet has a haircut. Also: we have to go and get vaccinated tomorrow. At the local clinic.

SNOW! What's going on over there ? You American lot are NOW just trying to copy us
role reversal or what ?

"vaccinated tomorrow" Corona of course ? =
but!
Many happy returns for tomorrowI know the ongoing "problems" cancel a lot of things outbut enjoy the day to whatever the situation there will allow

Hah! We've had a LOT more snow than you. We only DIDN'T have snow for about 4-5 days.

We did have snow in bulk once! But 60 odd years ago
and THAT did kill bugs off etc

It's usual here, but this has been a heavy snowfall year. We've used a lot of salt.

It only snowed a little today, should be gone tomorrow. No salt needed.

"we" have weather forecastersYou lot have a gopher

alas! Our forecasters ain't that good even WITH satellite technology.

I've got to go now. Take care, stay warm and safe!

Jab don't hurt (only the thought of it does)

with no candles on enjoy what tomorrow brings

Thanks!

Hope your day went well
