You have written such lovely things, I'm feeling quite humbled and emotional right now!<br />I love birdsong, it's so uplifting, but the video clip was just experimental as I'm a novice at most things techie; you have inspired me to do more.<br />I entered into conversations with a lovely lady called Jules who has inspired me to write more of Guernsey ... when I have the time! Being retired is busier than working, so best stay working AND getting paid for it, is my advice!<br />I am so pleased to hear that you've been going through my back issues, I'm so flattered that you've allocated some of your precious time to do that.<br />I love receiving comments and feedback, as a blogger's life can be a pretty lonely place sometimes. <br />I'm hoping I'll hear from you again soon, Karen.

I ...Congratulations to you, Ms. Pouting Pensioner! I am of your vintage although not yet a pensioner (and residing in Vancouver, we don't call ourselves that!) I stumbled on your blog recently and have read most of your many very entertaining, inspiring and funny posts in the last month. Thank you for getting "out there" and being yourself. I read "The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society" a few years ago and was tantalized by your island so it's lovely to see your photos of gardens and beaches and landmarks. I loved the birdsong video along the beach meadow path and listened and watched more than once! I'm with you in singing loudly Sir Elton's I'm Still Standin'! - a true survivor feelin' like a little kid. You've encouraged me to enjoy being my best self despite the ever present temptation to just feel "old". I hope you never stop posting! xo Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04243448881221465601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3385292529998118275.post-91723033111286090362017-07-22T15:14:27.949+01:002017-07-22T15:14:27.949+01:00That's awesome!
