Give me some Skin

Rosekitty @Rosekitty (19368) • San Marcos, Texas 6 Oct 15

Have you heard about what you can do with your tattoo's after you pass on? A company preserves your loved ones tattoo's from their skin and you can take them home and frame them to keep forever. Now i don't have any tattoo's,...

thebeaddoodler Gives me the creeps. Remindes me too much of Dr. Mengola's obsession with objects (lampshades etc.) made from the skin of his human failed experiments. To each is own.

A Change of Opinion

p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 28 Aug 15

Today I had lunch in a garden. Well, the former potting shed of a walled garden deep in the heart of the Wiltshire countryside. We used to go there years ago when it was just so much mud frankly. The veg was good though and we...

thebeaddoodler MMMM sounds like a great lunch and pleasant atmosphere. It's odd that in your part of the world the more pretentious name is cafe, and here a cafe is a place you can pop in whenever you like and you're likely to need reservations for a restaurant.

p1kef1sh @p1kef1sh (45681) 28 Aug 15

I'm the type of chap who finds it fairly easy to fall in love. Once I give my love I tend to never withdraw it and neither do I expect to be loved in return. However, I was reading a quote made by Johnny Depp recently in which...

thebeaddoodler "Love Is A Many Splendored Thing" and has many definitions in the English language. No, I don't think all love needs to be reciprocal but in a relationship/marriage, yes! It definitely must be or both parties will be miserable to varying degrees.
