@theygonnalose@VoicesofWW2 My dear Dad was also captured in Singapore by the Japanese. He was in the Royal Engineers. I haven’t read this book, although I have read quite a few. Dad managed to survive his incarceration building the Death Railway, but it affected him afterwards. He rarely spoke about it.
Can’t stop thinking about how Wall Street is celebrating Elon Musk becoming the world’s first trillionaire, while he single handedly eliminated humanitarian aid that will lead to the needless deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest children in the world in the next 4 years.
@domdyer70 How tragic, those poor animals. What precautions had they taken? After all they’ve had a fire before. This time precious animal lives were taken.
@EmmaJanesLife It can be really tough at times. I’ve been on my own for over 20 years. I’ve done so much in the last few years I think I’m exhausted but when I have a really good day it’s all worth while. Take care and enjoy the lovely nature around you and Harley. 😊
@Mislein@BradfemlyWalsh I was asked if I was pregnant and I’ve had a hysterectomy…
I asked if they had actually read my notes. I was told, yes but we have to ask anyway. I asked how it would be possible to become pregnant without ovaries, tubes and a uterus. I could see the brain ticking over…
@saniyafatma1278 Whilst I was Nursing I always kept my nails short. We weren’t allowed to wear anything on them. To this day I like them bare and short. I do wear nail varnish on my toe nails. Sometimes I have a manicure with plain polish.
@GeriKay301@VoicesofWW2 It was a chilling series. The music and narration completely captured the evil of War. The black and white photographs and film were gritty and again showed the evil of War. Humans don’t learn though and greed/power always raises its ugly head!
@GeriKay301@VoicesofWW2 I also watched ‘World at War’, as a teenager.
My dear Dad was a Japanese POW and was captured in Singapore and went on to build the Death Railway. Mum was younger but was at the seaside with my Aunt and a friend, they were fired upon by a German plane that had been shot down.
@blake_sara64710@CountDeadWomen So true. Pure evil.
Men are women’s biggest predators. And before someone says ‘not all men’, well do something about it then!
@CountDeadWomen@BradfemlyWalsh I just can’t believe this…poor lady. How on earth do her family and friends come to terms with this evil? RIP Jenny Firth.
@SarahForRuncorn Come off it.
You’re no victim.
The man who was brutally attacked and the innocent people who were burnt out of their homes in Belfast, are.
You are just a comfortable vulture.
@MichaelRosenYes My granddaughter loves this story. When I read it with her I stop and let her join in. She knows all the words. We’ve contributed to some of the views too! It is a classic and I read it with her Mum too. Wow, 14 million..huge congratulations.
@LilianDaly73922@HeatherBo63 If you mean Statins, they certainly can do. They can cause muscle pain and weakness. I had pain in the muscles of my upper arms (biceps) which led to bilateral frozen shoulders. That was extremely painful.
