Am watching a program where a British man is learning about his Grandfather who was a customs official in Nigeria.
British men who went to Nigeria for govt/business during the colonial period were not allowed to bring their wives and children because the children might form friendships with Nigerian children. Revolting.
I assume that was true for other African colonies as well.
@misslovelymess Sweet and boopable.
@gemswinc Iโd like to see a snake operating a touch screen. A lot of bopping with the nose.
@Beanc Iโll share.

@AskTheDevil @holon42 A journey like Lord of the Rings.
@AskTheDevil @holon42 And yes, we all need some emotional/spiritual work.
@AskTheDevil It was part of a thread. Needs full context. @holon42
@holon42 Yes. I need to never forget where Iโve been, what Iโve done. Not live in it, but remember. Iโm definitely not a superior enlightened being.
@holon42 Perhaps I should say โsome more obviously than others.โ
This lovely dress was designed by
Austrian born American designer Sadie Nemser, (1886-1966). It's from the late 1920s and called "Secret Garden". It's an exemplary transition piece, with a lot of the 20s in it, but moving toward the length and sweep of gowns of the 30s.
