Chris- I didn't even realise "Where Have all the Flowers gone?" was/is political!

What has six legs and cannot walk?

The object is living and not a table!

Hello again, Elle!
I have been a-browsing.
I am pretty sure this little German girl, Alexa, is on BGT's next episode.
This is her audition on Germany's Got Talent.
I enjoyed her act!

Hi, Rusty!
Thank you for the clip!
Oh, I loved the little girl, Alexa, and all her dogs!
She did very well, training so many to participate in tricks all together.
I am well impressed......and at so young an age , too.
I am looking forward to seeing her again on BGT!
I noticed that the clip was dated 2017..so Alexa will still be young when appearing again.
Did you notice the dog named Jennifer?
She best resembles my own dog, save mine is slightly smaller and tri-coloured ...black, with gold and white markings.
Have you heard from your friends?
Hopefully, they are by now safely home?

Hello, Elle!
Alexa is great, and all her dogs!
The audience and judges loved her act!
I think she is on on Saturday.
I've been trying to find out who is on, but it is not easy.
Elle, there were too many dogs for me to pick out who Alexa was calling to!
Yes, my pals have landed in rainy Belfast, I was told.
They got a takeaway Chinese supper on the way home.

Hi, Rusty!
The dog Jennifer was one of the two standing up, making the "arch".........both looked similar in their shagginess!
I'm glad your friends got home okay....
They are very partial to a takeaway Chinese meal (so am I)
They seem to do this on every return journey!
Excellent idea!

Good morning, Elle!
Bit cloudy and chilly here!
Hope Autumn has not arrived early!
The dogs were lovely, I thought!
My friends like Chinese food.
Eating is a large part of their social life, and holidays!

Good morning, Rusty!
It is another lovely day here...but yes, like with you, it is a tad nippy.
We even had the c/heating on for an hour earlier this morning!
We must be nesh!
Nothing special planned for today......
We had contemplated going to Ikea......I like Ikea......but didn't have the energy!
It will keep for another day.
I have completed a few chores......and will now make a coffee, and take a look at today's crossword.
What have you got planned for today?

Hello, Elle!
Still a bit dreich here.
I am home for the day.
I have been tidying up paperwork etc.
Writing lists and stuff.
And just finished my puzzle.
12a and 16d are new words to me.
Good puzzle today!

Good afternoon, Rusty!
It is becoming a bit cloudy here, now.......although rain is not forecast.
Yes, paperwork seems never-ending.....I do use the computer for many of my records, but there is still a lot of hands- on stuff to do.
I agree with you about today's crossword - a very nice one!
And I completed it - yes, parses and all - in record time (for me).
I liked 25a: trifid (this was a new word for me); 3d: Carmarthen; and 7d: embark.
I knew "Caduceus"...a staff carried by Mercury.
I feel well satisfied with my efforts!
I have had a visit from the "man -next - door" - the elusive "new" owner of the house.
Apparently he still has intentions/ plans to turn the property into flats.....
Although he says he has run out of money.
Long may he stay impecunious!
No- one on the street.... not least his more immediate neighbours.... wish there to be a single (usually family home) property boasting multi-flats !!
I foresee a long (legal?) battle, should this conversion plan go ahead!
Oh dear!
