Have any of you realized that you were walking around with a constant smile on your face? Thats the way I have been for a couple days now. Walk past a mirror or window glass and there I am SMILING...like a nut case.Oh, and humming, constantly humming. I must be happy? ?

This is such a nice thread. I lost it for a while and now I'm smiling because I found it again! It's the middle of my night and for some reason I couldn't sleep.

26 years ago tonight I wasn't sleeping either. I was walking down to the hospital nursry asking for my newborn daughter...she was only a few hours old and I missed her...before the days of rooming in! Now, I'm smiling with that memory!

I am smiling today because 'the goods and services act' which was being apposed by the leading party in Stormount(our wee supposed parliment) was preposed by every one else. Which means the right wing, fundamentalist (who hate everyone who isn't white, protestant and male) did not get their way. So women like me can not be discriminated against in shops, hotels...or any other public or private service providers.

The ground breaking changes in NI are long awaited for and have been so slow. But....watch this space!!

YES!!! YES!!! YES!!! About time as well. It has always puzzled me why this legislation did not manage to be enforced across the board for the UK in the first place.

Hi Lola,
those in opposition, the DUP,(DISCRIMINATION USUAL POLICY)came up with the most ludicrious twaddle as to why they were opposing the Bill. I read the whole Stormont debate yeaterday and it made for some reading I can tell ya!!!!In one sense we are so archaic in our policies...but then look at where the First Civil Partnership was held in Britian. Yup, here at home in good ole Belfast, with the eyes of the world upon Shannon and Grainne. How brave were they???
Did you see 'The Wedding'....the documentary about the gals whole run up to the big day???

It would have taken tears from a stone.....but then I would cry at the drop of a hat!!

How fun to read first-hand what's going on in toher parts of the world.

I smiled yesterday and last night as the kid's friends came in and out while home for the holidays.

I also smiled at the 70 degree weather for walking the dog around the block at night with Ross. It's December and it feels like April or May.

Hi, Popea: You give an entirely new meaning to the acronym of DUP. And it stands to reason, I must say. Yep, I have read the threadbare arguments against it. It's so threadbare it can float and dissipate. Mind boggling, to say the least. What's the public support like outside party opposition and organizations?

No, I have not come across "Wedding..."

You and Celtic make me smile. The Irish and Scottish counterpart of French and Saunders!
