The Interactive Holiday Toy for Christmas Gift – The Furby Boom
I liked the original Furbies, but these look really cute. It's easy to see why they will be highly requested this year.

First Aid: Would you Know What to Do?
Dustytoes - I've put a strong emphasis above on dealing with strangers in public places. But First Aid moments can just as easily turn up in private, when there's no-one else to handle this stuff. If I'm there, then I promise I will always run ...

First Aid: Would you Know What to Do?
I admit that I am like the majority of people - I look for someone else to handle this stuff. We are lucky there are people like you around. And yes, more of us should learn, and be able to step up.

First Aid: Would you Know What to Do?

First Aid: Would you Know What to Do?
I should learn this stuff too. I'll look into it. Only I don't think I could "deal with it," "it" being the sight of broken bones protruding through the skin, and so forth.

The Mythical Firebird
I was looking at the story of the firebird again just the other day. I love that you included ballet clips as well. I should really go see some dance :) I saw the movie on Pina Bausch last year and loved it to bits.

On the Trail of Pope John Paul II in Krakow
They really were. They were nothing like the churches in Britain. The sheer array of colour was immense.
I agree. It must have been terrifying in Krakow at that time.

On the Trail of Pope John Paul II in Krakow
Those churches must have been amazingly beautiful.
I liked the bit where you wrote that there was a touch of the miraculous in his calling. What a frightening time.
