I hear on the news this morning where China has increased its military power massively and they say it is unsettling the region...Korea is the problem, they are very volatile. We were brought up to the following slogan..."Beware the yellow peril" It wont happen in my lifetime but it will happen
Bernice: not to distract others from your statement.. I just wanted to ask if you were being affected with all the flooding over on your side of the globe??
ScarletRose: thanks for aking....we were flooded in on Xmas day and nth of us is still badly flooded and sth of us is in a terrible way....they are saying another 2 weeks before the evacuees will be able to go back to their homes which are currently under water. We had a terrible storm last night which doesnt affect us but goes into the catchment areas which are already over full and causing all the flooding sth of us.
Bernice: I had been rather busy the passed several months and as of late.. been seeing the films on the news regarding the flooding.. I had been wondering about you. I actually meant to contact you privately.. although, I am getting on this site so late anymore just to hurry and catch up my games.. Glad to see you haven't washed away.. sorry to learn though of the terrible mess.. how awful that would be.. I can't even imagine..
ScarletRose: went to do my weekly grocery shop this AM and there were nothing on the shelves at the supermarket.....hardly any vegies/fruit and the groceries are running a bit thin....road and rail is closed so no deliveries and becasue all our stuff comes from down sth we suffer that way :(
