    Once, off duty, I saw an elderly man hit by a vehicle, and for a moment I completely froze. Even with all my training. I think it's something happening so unexpectedly, in a 'safe' environment. You are such an empathetic, caring soul and it sounds as though Ali was a completely hero x

    Most hotels don't provide a steamer/iron because of safety reasons, not because they are "bougie"...
    Just wanted to give you some food for thought: there are so many lovely bookstores around the UK which are struggling, please order your books from them instead of amazon. Now more than ever, we should support local/national businesses.

      @dinky.. 2 роки тому +1

      What she was describing was definitely bougie. Standard hotels (in England at least) all have irons. If you're lucky you'll have one in your room. Most of the time you borrow one at reception. But you can ALWAYS use a hotel owned iron and ironing board in your room. What she is saying....is that some upmarket (otherwise known as "bougie") hotels don't expect that guest will want to iron their own clothing. So they don't provide irons. They provide an ironing service instead and charge (as she puts it) through the nose. It's nothing to do with safety. It's to do with, basically posh, hotels. Maybe it's different in your country. But here in England every Premier Inn, Travel Lodge, Ibis etc AND independently owned hotels have irons for you to borrow. 4 and 5 star hotels though...that's another matter.

Very devastating... when you spend so much time! They are beautiful majestic animals but can be also a nuisance!

    The deer is just bonding, wants to hang out, I have always had deer around where we have lived in the past. What a beautiful addition to your back yard zoo. I’m jealous. Once deer realize you are no threat will probably become part of your background. If they start eating plants, can plant marigolds around, as they don’t like the taste. But then again I have never met a BRITISH deer, so maybe yours would eat the Marigolds.

As a(retired) nurse there are many kinds of people in the world and we all do our best, sometimes people will run over to help and other people are in shock, and that's totally ok. When bad things happen, people will crowd around and with the best intentions, they get in the way. So, sometimes it is best to stay back.. I hope the lady is alright, it is a frightening thing to witness.

    My Grandad is 93 and has always been super proud of his veg patch but like you said, as people get older it becomes more difficult to maintain so this year, by Dad and Uncle have covered over the veg patch with small stones, and have installed giant wooden deep vegetable trugs that enable my grandad to plant and harvest without the need to bend as they are built perfect height for him. Weeds will be easier to keep down and he is absolutely thrilled with them! (He still has a very small ground level patch for beans / peas to grow up canes) Just a thought if Ali's grandad would benefit from a similar idea ;-) xx

    Hi Lydia! For more books flipping between ages, in england, I highly recommend books by Kate Morton! My favorite is The Clockmaker's Daughter, and I've also read The House at Riverton and The Secret Keeper. She has more books that are similar but they are great, little mystery and crime-ish.

They walk the fence line and after the first 2 days, they are very comfortable with each other. Yesterday morning she brought her two twin fawns to meet him and it was the cutest thing.
    We have to fence all gardens or they will eat everything. We have also found various

    Deer can actually be very friendly and play with dogs. The only thing you need to be aware of is if there are babies nearby. The mother sometimes hides them in bushes etc until she comes back but is very protective. We get new babies in the yard every year who are absolutely adorable and usually have anywhere from 6, up to 12 or so at a time. Enjoy them but also be aware of ticks. ❤️

    Hi Lydia all the way from the US North Carolina countryside. We have families of deer that live on our property. They like our lilies and blueberries. To keep them from eating your plants and veggies, spray this harmless deer and rabbit liquid fence spray. There are different brands out there. The scent keeps them away but it’s safe for all.

This book was so good the author wrote a second one with about 6 different endings. All the readers ( like me) were completely mad with confusion of how her life turns out. That one is good too.
    Also, I think you would like The Paris Apartment. 💚💚💚

    I believe deers only see sideways, from the side of their heads, won't see you straight on..that's why so many get run over when they freeze in the middle of a road...if there is a next time.. be visible from side of their head and perhaps clap gently.
    Bravo Al for reacting so quickly and appropriately, you have good instincts and a cool head in emergency situations. We all react differently to emergencies, very often we freeze, not knowing what to do or not wanting to intrude or doing the wrong thing...

    Hi Lydia. Have you read anything by Kate Morton? She writes across generations with such clever twists and turns that keeps you turning the page and saying to yourself “just one more chapter before I turn off the light!” She immerses you in the era and world, set primarily in the English country side, forcing you to fall in love with the characters and the mystery that surrounds them. 🌸
