A Walk With my Father:

The second paragraph to the first subheading, The first stage, describes transportation routes as B roads.

English Wikipedia discusses them in its article Great Britain road numbering scheme.

The aforementioned article identifies that scheme as different from British Overseas Territories', Isle of Man's, Jersey's and Northern Ireland's.

Might the above-mentioned exclusions observe quite different or quite similar road numbering schemes?

A Visit to Lisbon

Thank you!

Portuguese acquaintances always described their Lisbon as a cidade da sete colinas ("the city of seven hills").

Online sources give those seven as Chagas ("wounds"), Santa Catarina ("St. Catherine"), Sant'Ana ("St. Ann"), Santo André ("St. Andrew"), São Jorge ("St. George"), São Roque ("St. Rock") and São Vicente ("St. Vincent").

Marga, in her How to navigate and walk the seven hills in Lisbon without exhaustion Aug. 12, 2022 (updated Jan. 31, 2024) for the Discover Portugal site, gives as eighth hill the highest, 200-meter- (656.168-foot-) tall Graça with the city-highest viewpoint, Miradouro da Sensora do Monte ("Terrace of the Lady of the Mount").

Might you and your wife have had some time to amble around or up any one of the aforementioned hills?

As We Age - We React to Life's Challenges Differently

Shower curtains, blankets, cushions, and doormats are offered. But - I am about to venture into ArtsCow, and I haven't fully explored what they offer yet. Once on ArtsCow it is possible to set up drop shipping on Amazon. All totally new to me.

As We Age - We React to Life's Challenges Differently

Thank you!

So RedBubble and Zazzle have their lists of approved product lines.

Looking again at your RedBubble line from your first in-text image of the joking couple made me notice no drapes among your products.

Might you not offer door and window curtains and drapes because of their not showing up on approved product lines?

A Line of Scandalous Women

The GotQuestions site of Your Questions, Biblical Answers deals with the question "What was Mary's lineage?"

The aforementioned site explains, by Matthew 3:23 and 3:34 respectively, Joseph as son of Eli and Mary as descendant of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.

It features Joseph as Eli's son -- since Matthew 1:16 explains Joseph as Jacob's son -- through the former's marriage to Our Lady Mary, whom it features as Eli's daughter.

Is the above explanation actually making Joseph Eli's son-in-law, not his son?

Dick Whittington and His Cat

The Black-Death plague maximized its casualties and its damages between 1346 and 1353.

Perhaps Richard Whittington -- born perhaps one year later, in 1354, and braving post-plague London perhaps concerned about plague relapses the next, vulnerable 75 to 100 years -- numbered among his pre- and post-humous projects plague survivors and those with plague-killed, plague-surviving family members.

Such sympathetic support to those so suffering possibly would suggest symbolic association with feline sentients who worked against plague flea-riddled mice and rats. Perhaps that subsequently suggested Dick Whittington and his cat, right?

A Day at the Poynton Show

Guiness World Records online describes the South-Wales winner of 2021 as displaying 157-centimeter- (5-foot-1.8-inch-) long, 60-centimeter- (1-foot-11.6-inch-) wide dimensions. It discloses a 22.7-kilogram (50-pound) heavier weight than the previous world-largest marrow.

The aforementioned site includes the Sjodin information of the winning marrow's weight gain from fish-gut, fish-head compost!

Might it make any difference what species provides the fish guts and heads?

(What fish body parts would you work into your soil?)

A Woman Alone: Decades Living in a Ruined Village

I do not know of any.

As We Age - We React to Life's Challenges Differently

Ha ha .No We are restricted to what the software can do. They have a set of products we can choose from. This is why I have now tried ArtsCow. I think I will write a whole article about this new approach.

A Woman Alone: Decades Living in a Ruined Village

Some Unitedstatesians add a sentient animal, commonly a canine or a feline sentient, to their household if they avoided such protective company before.

Is there any indication of sentient-animal companionship or was Elizabeth really completely on her own?
