The Glad Game

[Maryd.]

And I'm glad you're here too.

[Henry P]

Cooking makes me glad

[Maryd.]

Writing makes me glad

[Henry P]

Good people make me glad

[Maryd.]

Warm hearts make me glad

[Henry P]

People with a sense of humour

[Maryd.]

People who can move on.

[Henry P]

people who see things as they really are

[Maryd.]

The world still moving, even through the recent financial worries.

[Henry P]

till the next crisis

[Maryd.]

And the one after that... But I am glad we get passed them.

[Henry P]

We'll survive

[Maryd.]

I'm glad for another glorious day outside.

[Henry P]

Is it late summer/early autumn there?

[Maryd.]

'Tis early autumn and the morning chill has arrived, but the afternoons are warm. Odd weather, but I like it and it's perfect painting weather. Not like last month when I almost melted, from the heat.

[Henry P]

How cold/ hot does it get there in winter and summer?

[Maryd.]

I don't think it gets that cold in winter, minimum of 10degrees and as an odd occasion, it might get lower. As for summer it gets pretty hot. Again roughly 30's, but we have some nasty days of over 40. This summer wasn't too bad though... I don't think we had many of those days.
What about Yorkshire?

[Henry P]

In summer, 20+C is the norm, reaching 30 rarely. In winter it generally is about 4 0r 5, with dips below freezing several times a year, usually in january and February, with occasional snow and frequent night frost. A sunny day is always very welcome as we spend most of our year in greyness

[Maryd.]

Wow, 20 degrees, is cold for me... So funny what your body gets used to.

I'm glad I live in Australia.

[Henry P]

I'd be glad to live some warmer

[Maryd.]

(Move down-under)

I'm glad things are looking up.

[Henry P]

They might be . It's early days yet.
Is that an offer of free accommodation?

[Maryd.]

Sure, don't think hubby will like the idea though... But you can move in anytime.

[Henry P]

I'll hide in the garage. I'm much smaller than I used to be.

[Maryd.]

So long as I get to hide in there with you. (I probably won't even be missed)

[Henry P]

As long as the painting is done and the meals are cooked?

[Maryd.]

Don't worry about that... Dinner will always be served. Painting should be finished by the time you arrive.:)

[Henry P]

i'll be on my way

[Maryd.]

And I wait in anticipation...

[Henry P]

I'm glad I can joke like this

[Maryd.]

Me too.

[Nature's heartbeat]

I'm glad that there are still some people in this world not afraid to show affection...;) and :)

[Maryd.]

I'm glad Maryd. made me smile...Bless you sweet soul! <3

I'm glad that his sight has lovely people such as you Nature's heartbeat.:1st:

[Nature's heartbeat]

No...love is a sleeping muscle existant in everyone. It just needs to be awakened and exercised on a regular basis...;) I'm glad that there are sweetos like you that trim that muscle well and make it show. :D *freshly baked hug coming right up* :)

[Maryd.]

Wow you have prescious words. I am flattered. Mwah to you my dear.:hug::)

[Henry P]

I'm glad everyone here likes one another

[Maryd.]

I'm glad to have made more friends on this site.

[Henry P]

Nature's Heartbeat is lovely

[Maryd.]

I'm glad there is a whole lot of love on this site... I feel blessed to be apart of this love.

[Henry P]

I'm glad that people are still nice to each other

[Maryd.]

I'm glad that even with my past, I can still manage to be nice to people.

[Henry P]

that's because you are naturally nice, my dear. It shines through

[Maryd.]

I'm glad you noticed.

[Henry P]

It's hard to miss, my dear

[Maryd.]

Yes, I guess, I don't hide it...
I'm glad I can let my emotions show.

[Henry P]

I'm glad i show mine. we're very un-English.

[Maryd.]

(That made me smile Henry)
Yes, we are very un-English... What does it make us, then?

[Henry P]

basically Europeans, despite our locations , and citizens of the beautiful world. Poles and Italians usually wear their hearts on their sleeves

[Maryd.]

Well, if you ever get bored of your heart, send it my way for a while, I shall keep it warm; smother it with love and hand it back as good as new.

[Henry P]

Aw, that's so nice. You ought to write the messages inside Valentine cards. Metaphors are a wonderful thing, my dear. The ancient Greeks started the idea of the heart being the seat of emotions, but they thought the brain was for cooling the body, which is actually one of its functions

[Maryd.]

Clever those old Greeks, aren't they... But don't tell hubby I said that he will get a big head!

[Henry P]

Actually they were wrong about the heart, but it's a pretty and lasting image

[Maryd.]

You are so clever dear, I am glad to know you.

[Henry P]

I'm not so clever, otherwise I'd still be working so my wife could like me

[Nature's heartbeat]

I'm glad my internet is back after some hours of non-functioning...cause I missed you sweet peeps...:wub: to you both and to any others who may be reading this...:)

[Maryd.]

I'm not so clever, otherwise I'd still be working so my wife could like me

Oh angel, your wife is totally missing out. You should send her to me, I fix her up. Knock a few senses into her.
Some people have no idea what they have!


I'm glad my internet is back after some hours of non-functioning...cause I missed you sweet peeps...:wub: to you both and to any others who may be reading this...:)

I'm glad to see you back too, Nature.:hug:

[Henry P]

I'm glad to be back here

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have an excuse to come back.

[Henry P]

Watching people makes me glad

[Maryd.]

Really, do you just look at them and they make you glad?

[Henry P]

I like watching people and how they behave

[Maryd.]

That's interesting.

I'm Glad, when I see children play.

[Henry P]

A really good football match on TV makes me glad, especially in the evenings

[Maryd.]

A really good epic movie makes me glad.

[Henry P]

I'm glad when I have time for a good breakfast

[Maryd.]

Yum... What did you have my good sir?

[Henry P]

The leftover rabbit stew, some toasted rye bread (yum) yogurt and my morning banana.
I'm glad I can eat anything for breakfast

[Maryd.]

That is cute... Your morning banana. I have a morning banana, after my two hard boiled eggs.
I'm glad I have started to eat healthy again.

[Henry P]

I'm glad we eat well but healthy too

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have HP to make me happy, when I am sad. Mwah to him

[Henry P]

Glad to be useful to someone

[Maryd.]

Angel, you are useful to everyone, don't let anyone tell you different. Mwah...

[Henry P]

Thanks, my dear. A pity some people don't agree

[Maryd.]

Send them to me, I'll fix them up.

[Henry P]

I'm glad I have someone who sticks up for me

[Maryd.]

Good, but I don't indulge in fisticuffs. Just good old fashioned kind words to warm their cold hearts.

[Henry P]

And I thought you'd beat them up...

[Maryd.]

Wel, if you need me to slap them around a little, I could try it just this once... For you.

[Henry P]

Thanks, my dear

[Maryd.]

But you know that would be stepping out of character for me... You must appreciate it and throw your cyber-buddy some hugs...

[Henry P]

:hug::hug::hug:

[Maryd.]

Thanks my heart has been warmed... Mwah to you.
I'm glad you sent me the hugs.

[Henry P]

I'm here to please, my dear

[Maryd.]

Really... So if I ask you anything, will you give it to me?

[Henry P]

If it's within my power

[Maryd.]

Power it's so overrated... Piff.

[Henry P]

If it's within my reach, then

[Maryd.]

No, I don't believe you will produce, what I ask for...

[Henry P]

what's that then?

[Maryd.]

It's not worth asking... I'd be waisting your time.

[Henry P]

Ask, please. I have time on my hands

[Maryd.]

No, no you are too far away... You could never accomadate.

[Henry P]

try me

[Maryd.]

Smile.

[Henry P]

I'm smiling.

[Maryd.]

Yes but are you really smiling, or are you telling me what I want to here?

[Henry P]

I'm really smiling

[Entyqua]

spring
my child
writing
a nice long drive

[Maryd.]

I believe you... I have too, as I can't see or hear you - right?

[Henry P]

right- I believe you have & I'm glad

[Maryd.]

I'm glad to start a new day.

[Henry P]

I'm glad I'm pleasantly tired

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am me again.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you are . Did the night's sleep make difference?

[Maryd.]

No. I just have a hard head and won't change who I am for people who make me feel guilty. I haven't done anything evil, so I am happy being me... Why should I change because people don't like - nice?

[Henry P]

Be true to yourself, my dear

[Maryd.]

Thank you. You are an angel.

[Henry P]

Glad to please, my dear

[Maryd.]

I'm glad to take a break from the computer for a few hours.

[Henry P]

From the editing, I hope?

[Maryd.]

Yes... Have been editing my manuscript.

[Henry P]

You mean you are poring over it for mistakes and things which could be different?

[Maryd.]

I mean Henry, it is hard to edit one's own work. I have over 90,000 words to edit.

[Henry P]

It must be. It's a children's book, isn't it?

[Maryd.]

Sort of, my son read it last year, when he was 11, he liked it. But he knows about my past and was able see it clearer, so probably looking at 11-14yrs.

[Henry P]

That's a difficult audience, neither kids nor adults. what is it about?

[Maryd.]

A child medium growing up in an Australian orphanage in the late 60's early 70's.. Some sad moments, some funny moments, wome weird eerie moments and a minor romance. When I say minor, I mean just hand holding and kid stuff.

[Henry P]

Based on experience and balanced in terms of light and shade. Sounds promising. Have you let anyone comment on it?

[Maryd.]

Just my boy at the moment. I needed a child's point of view first. I will be giving it to my older sister after I have finished editing it. I gave it to hubby mid year, last year he read 3 chapters and gave up... He doesn't like reading. He said he wants me to read it to him... Can you believe it? Honestly I was thinking of sending it to another editor, as I am biased.

[Henry P]

Could you send it to me?

[Maryd.]

I'm very hesitant about sending my work out until I am completely ready.

[Henry P]

OK. Take your time

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am awake early.

[Henry P]

I'm glad that I can talk to you earlier

[Maryd.]

I'm glad we can talk at all... With all the computer issues I've been having.

[Henry P]

I'm glad I don't often have problems, although I was cut off on saturday morning for a while

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I can still be able to use my son's laptop, for a while... But hate having to share internet time, between the three of us.

[Henry P]

There are only two of us and it's hard enough. Noone dreamed of this internet thing 25 years ago

[Maryd.]

No and I am thankful for it. Otherewise, we may have never met.

[Henry P]

I agree. You can talk with people around the world, find anything out without going to a library, buy stuff and hundreds of other uses

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am back

[Henry P]

I'm glad I'm warm on a cold night

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have started dieting again.

[Henry P]

So am I

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am friendly towards people, even my foes... Especially my foes.

[Henry P]

I'm glad I am more assertive than I used to be

[Maryd.]

I'm glad it is the school holidays and I can sleep in.

[Henry P]

I'm glad i have an ear for music

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I can dance.

[Henry P]

I'm glaD I love language

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I love to sing

[Henry P]

Lists of the best of anything

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I to have a night off cooking.

[Henry P]

having a strong, independent daughter

[Maryd.]

I'm glad my children are more clever than I was, at their age.

[Henry P]

I think Steph is wiser and tougher too

[Maryd.]

I'm glad we are lucky to have such blessed children.

[Henry P]

Whistleblowers who leak government plans make me glad

[Maryd.]

Birds flying in the sky, make me glad.

[Henry P]

Jesus' resurrection makes me glad

[Maryd.]

(I was going to say Easter Sunday makes me glad... But you beat me to it, with that line)

I'm glad to take a break from the cooking.

[Henry P]

What are you cooking?

[Maryd.]

That was last nights meal, We had a barbie and I don't go near a barbie, unless I am doing a sausage sizzle for the kids school.

I'm glad I can cook.

[Henry P]

I'm glad I can too

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I can still smile, after this week of chaos

[Henry P]

I'm glad you can, but it'll right itself

[Maryd.]

It's not just the computer, it's everything... My son was ill, the week was an absolute mess, everything went wrong. We have been told that we have to wait 5-6 weeks before we can sell the house.
But you know what I am glad to be challenged... As the saying goes... What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.

[Henry P]

You'll weather it, my dear

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am back, for a short while.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you are.

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I can still smile after this horrible week.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you got through it smiling

[Maryd.]

Not there yet though have to find someone to repair the computer, "You know who" Doesn't want me to pay for it. He wants his friend to fix it. But his friends is busy for a few weeks. So not sure what I'll do.
I'm glad to have my children home for the school holidays

[Henry P]

You need the computer for your work, so you should get it fixed yourself. It can't cost so much, can it?

[Maryd.]

Don't know, but it's high time I started to make my stand at home... God knows I need to! I will make a few calls. Mind you no one is available right now, with the Easter holidays... So aggravating.

[Henry P]

Someone will be available on Tuesday, though. Is it a holiday there on Monday?

[Maryd.]

Yes it is... Might try Tuesday. Is it a holiday there on Monday as well?

[Henry P]

Yes, a so-called "bank" holiday, I think the British get fewer holidays than most countries.

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have access to my emails.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you want to talk to me

[Maryd.]

I'm glad you are here to talk too.

[Henry P]

I'll be glad when we talk more again once your PCs are fixed

[Maryd.]

i'm glad i'm here

[Henry P]

I'm glad you are

[amberzak]

I am glad that in this world of cruel, backstabbing people, I do have one true friend.

[Henry P]

I'm glad that some people are still true friends

[amberzak]

I am glad that I have a small group of close friends, rather than a big group of mediocre friends.

I am also glad about the internet, as its great for socialising

[Henry P]

I'm glad about that too, but how could we meet our internet friends in real life?

[Maryd.]

that's a tough one my friend. We'll have to work on that one. I'm glad i'm addicted to an internet friend.

[amberzak]

I dont need to see people to socialise. I prefer it online because I can work at the same time this way

[Maryd.]

I dont need to see people to socialise. I prefer it online because I can work at the same time this way

Yes. But isn't there one person you have waved to meet?

[amberzak]

Yes. But isn't there one person you have waved to meet?

? Did you put a typo in there?

There is a friend I study with, and love hanging out with - we go to the cinema and such like. I live with my fiance. But i am more of a forum person and msn person for my day to day talking.

An arranged meet up etc is completely different

[Maryd.]

yes. I did put a typo in. My apologies. I would like to meet people from online, in real life. Well not everyone. There's no secret who i would like to meet from this forum.
I'm glad it's a glorious day outside.

[amberzak]

I do like meeting people who I've met online, yeah. I am just glad to have the internet so when I cannot get out because I am busy, I can still socialise

[Henry P]

I'm glad I've found people I like on this forum

[Maryd.]

i'm glad to be available to chat to my friend.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you are

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have one good friend I can trust

[Henry P]

I'm glad I have one as well

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have become thick skinned, over the past week.

[Henry P]

We need to be sometimes

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I can still be kind to people as well as finding my new inner strength.

[Henry P]

I'm glad for you too

[Maryd.]

I am so glad you are here. Mwah.

[Henry P]

i'm glad we can talk like this again

[BattyOldMaid]

I'm glad I'm free.

[Maryd.]

i'm glad i'm alive.

[Henry P]

i'm glad we are all well and able to talk

[Maryd.]

i'm glad this site is filled with beautiful people.

[Henry P]

You haven't looked at my photo closely enough

[Maryd.]

Aw angel you are my beautiful - people. Nothing wrong with my eyesight. Mwah.

[Henry P]

that definitely makes me glad

[Maryd.]

It makes of glad to make one person happy

[Henry P]

so be glad, my dear

[Maryd.]

I'm glad you are happy. Mwah.

[Henry P]

I am, my dear, I am

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I am still sane. (for now)

[Henry P]

I'm glad I'm still sane too

[Maryd.]

I'm glad your still here.

[Henry P]

Where else would I go? Isn't it past your bedtime?

[Maryd.]

Yes it is... But you are an addiction. I should go to bed though. I will be on in the morning; your eve, will be late eve, will you be here?

[Henry P]

Where else would I go, my dear?

[Maryd.]

I'm glad we'll be here, to chat again tomorrow.

[Henry P]

I'm glad too. Sleep well

[Maryd.]

Had a rough night. But i'm glad i'm back today.

[Henry P]

I'm glad you're here

[Maryd.]

I'm glad to have access to internet cafes.

[Henry P]

I don't know where one is around here

[Maryd.]

Ours is local but costly. I have to get the computer repaired soon.

[Henry P]

After our long session yesterday, I thought maybe it was fixed

[Maryd.]

No i was on the internet cafe and then my mobile.

[Henry P]

You're going to a lot of trouble, my dear. that means you're a real friend

[Maryd.]

Yes. That's my problem.

[Henry P]

That's a virtue, not a problem

[Maryd.]

Ok I believe you.
I am glad to have a dear and true friend like you.

[Henry P]

I'm glad to know you, my dear

[Maryd.]

I'm glad I have had our chat today.

[Henry P]

I'm glad too

[Maryd.]

I'm glad to go to bed.

[Henry P]

food makes me glad when I'm hungry

[Maryd.]

Coming on this forum makes of glad.

[Henry P]

I'm glad when you're on it

[Maryd.]

I'm glad when your little green light comes on.

[Henry P]

I'm even gladder when I see a black one in the corner. This is a really well devised site , isn't it?

[amberzak]

i'm glad i have a laptop as i'm laying in bed right now

[Henry P]

Those laptops are convenient, aren't they?

[amberzak]

Indeed. I often go to bed and watch things on the iplayer. I love my laptop

[Henry P]

Mine is a little big to be loveable, but I'll get another when my daughter goes away for her practice in July

[amberzak]

What's your daughter doing?

I have a macbook, and I love it (I only use macs, I love them)

[Henry P]

My daughter is doing pharmacy at uni, in the fourth year out of five. she has to do 6 months in a hospital to be registered and to get her Masters.
I used to use an Apple G5, but the same part packed up twice in too years. I could a laptop for what it cost to repair. PCs are easier to fix.
