@moragkatie.bsky.social .. This amazing "and dearly loved by me woman" never fails to brighten all my birthdays... yet again , I can only say " bless you " Hugs and aww that stuff xx💖

@moragkatie.bsky.social , the bridge is back 👍

I'm gonnae follow loads of people on here . See if I can beat 1035 followers on the other place ...😄😉

Oh dear, this might be considered a bit overdone !

Damn ! That wasn't easy to do ... I feel like I've turned my back on over 1000+ friends I've made over 10 years of being on social media ( my chosen 1000 incidentally), and I'll miss the contact with so many . Sorry , but that other place is now insupportable. Feel free to say hello BTW.

Another fine French Christmas tradition .. munching on the Kings ring ... beer is optional 😂

@mazmcm.bsky.social is on duty tomorrow, so traditional French Christmas for us tonight ... I seriously hope I don't mess this bad boy up !

I think this is most likely correct ... I'll be 64 , so it's not all bad

Just because Glasgow had a pretty impressive win today ... here's some more Warriors pics from Toulon...

Slowly building accomplices, it might be good on here 🙏

Just realised that I've pretty much neglected to post on here how good the visit to Toulon was . Excellent weekend all round. It was great catch up with old pals and make some new ones . Hope these pics do it justice...

First leg of the Rugby trip to Toulon for the match against Glasgow Warriors ... Deano and I are well excited 🦖💙🖤🏉

Possibly my 1st food post on bluesky. I apologize if it's not your thing . Pre Christmas lunch at Le Scorlion with @mazmcm.bsky.social . Slow cooked beef cheek for me , perfectly cooked steak for herself. Apple sponge tatin for dessert 😋

I swear rugby without commentary is the future, I haven't enjoyed a televised game as much , in a very long time , hearing all the on field calls , including the " naughty " ones ! Plus every refereeing decision loud and clear . It's magic #GLAVSAL

So, I'm sent out on a mission by @mazmcm.bsky.social . " Get some Christmas stuff " she says ...This actually happened ! 😅🕯🕯🕯🕯

Nearly at 50 ... it's just like the old days 🤣

Mes amis, it's nouvelle beaujolais night ... our favourite bar made beef bourginon and dauphinois potatoes 😋 ... #Frenchlife

It was a relatively quiet day ... so this memory from last weekend will have to do . So cool 🇫🇷

Early night or late night people ? A good book and 3am is early .

@juliabm.bsky.social It was only a matter of time. Big hugs Too you 🤗

Well , that was the first weekend communicating on the new place . 1 block in 48 hours and some really cool people taking the time to follow back . Not a bad start . Goodnight 👋

Welll , there you go . A new adventure has begun on a new platform So far , so good . Please be aware bawheids , gobshites , dickheads and general eejits . You will not be tolerated . I could argue with your stupidity forever , sorry but I haven't the time .

@ourvey.bsky.social Salut Alan 👋

@missilepanda.bsky.social Hiya Leslie .. this is much better 👍

@bodser92.bsky.social Hello there , it's pretty good here . 👍

Good morning... Just a thought .

A grand cru try that 🇫🇷

To celebrate my arrival on this , so far , relatively normal platform, I'm going to eat some American chocolate. What I really love is that it's measured in grams 😄

Sorry , but food needs mentioned... Lentil soup with smoked sausage , potato and carrot ... Magnifique 😋

@peterelder74.bsky.social Hello Peter , hopefully a better place to catch up on here
