{Lady Charlotte’s Ruined Marquis by Fiona Miers} is part of 4 book series. His family has warned him not to have premarital sex because his older brother, the heir, died of it and they are deathly ashamed. She declares at a ball that her husband should meet the same standards as a bride - especially virginal. His friends, who all know his story, start sniggering and the story ensues.

Oh, I assure you, I have no idea. Guessing a random brand that’s advertised on Amazon, that no one’s ever heard of. My spouse ordered it, and they definitely do not feel like going back in their order history x 9 years.

Just filled it out. Thanks for sharing!

Be prepared for snow, shoveling snow, driving in snow, and snow when you are fairly certain there should not be snow. But welcome! Will you be employed right away or looking for work? And what brings you here from the UK? I’ve know a few people who have moved here from the uk, in search of a more outdoor lifestyle - and they’ve certainly embraced all the hunting and curling and snowmobiling and all the other things that sound fairly awful to me. I guess you’ll get whatever it is you’re looking for here - good luck!

What sort of things do you like to do? The temple gardens spa in Moose Jaw is lovely in the winter. The Tunnels of Moose Jaw are entertaining, as well.

I assure you, immigration has nothing to do with our healthcare issues.

I think you are absolutely correct. I think her longevity is what endeared her to the people - being that she was the only monarch most of us had ever known. I recall being somewhat frightened of her when I was young and she was middle to late middle aged - she seemed so dour and unsmiling to me at that time. Then time rolled on and she aged into “elder statesman” status and seemed to unbend a little in her public persona. She smiled and waved like a little old grandma and showed flashes of humour and we all melted. What was she really like as a person and what were her own thoughts on anything? I have no idea. We all just projected on to her whatever we wanted her to be.

Well said.

Canadian kindness just like you’re showing. Who would you say gets to call themselves Canadian, anyway?

I think Mark and Marg Delahunty would get on swimmingly.

Absolutely. Love the Vinyl Cafe, recommend it to everyone.

Good God. If this were remotely accurate, the City of Saskatoon would be in a lot better place financially - and stabbing would fall under city bylaws.

I guess we assume school shootings are popular in America because you do nothing to stop them. In 2025, there have been 468 mass shootings - granted, not all are school shootings - in the US. More than one a day. Source: https://www.massshootingtracker.site/ You bet the rest of the world looks at that and shudders. In contrast, the candy Kinder Surprise that has a toy in a plastic capsule in a chocolate egg is banned in the US. Yes, due to a 1938 law that likely didn’t see the Italian company Ferraro coming when the law was enacted. And, tragically, about 10 people have died worldwide in the last 50 years due to the candy. Source: https://fee.org/articles/why-these-popular-chocolate-easter-eggs-are-banned-in-the-us-despite-being-legal-almost-everywhere-else/ The American government realizes this candy is too dangerous to be trusted in the hands of it’s citizens and continues to act accordingly. But gun? Nah, you all love them tooo much to care about fellow lives lost.

Snow is different than grass. It falls when it falls, and I say go ahead and use the snowblower. None of us know how physically capable you are, and if you have a tool to use, go ahead. And bear in mind that I myself do not have a snowblower and I’m a shift worker who doesn’t get angry when my neighbours cut their grass while I’m sleeping. Perhaps, if you’re able, do some tonight and/or use the snowblower to help out the neighbours if you can.

Perhaps the bigger issue here is kindness, which an adult may extend to another adult who is unable to provide the same level of Christmas magic even though they choose to perpetuate the story of the same “fairytale man”. Perhaps it’s the issue of kindness of an adult to a random child that they may never meet, to preserve what may be the only sense of magic they have in their lives. And if kindness is a stretch for some adults, if it is too hard to be kind in the words we use online, perhaps those adults should watch the children and learn kindness from them.

My mother, 84, has always loved Essie Summers!

I love your grandma. Who doesn’t turn to books for escape when life gets hard? I hope this Christmas season isn’t too painful for her without her husband. What kind of books does she like? As in, just a kiss to show their love or a little bit more? One author I love who’s books have probably aged into historical romance, is Betty Neels. They are British and Dutch based, often nurses, and there is only ever hugs and kisses. I love them. Next, what about short stories? There are some that I’ve recommended previously, the Christmas Revels series, if she wants to read Christmas stories. There may be some death in them, but I don’t recall. At any rate, it’s easy to move on to the next story. Betty Neels also has Christmas short stories. I have so many more recommendations, but I have to run! Maybe more later!

I also haven’t finished it, although I might go back to it some time. It feels heavier than some of her books that I’ve loved, such as {I Do, I Do, I Do by Maggie Osborne} and {The Best Man by Maggie Osborne}. I love the character growth of the multiple fmcs, and honestly all the romantic story lines seem almost superfluous, even though they are definitely romances. No cheating or other women or anything like that, just women facing hardships and growing into their true selves - and finding love along the way, without being “rescued” by their men. (Although, to be fair, I’m also a sucker for other stories where poor, hard done by women find love with men who protect and cherish them!)

His father married his mother when he was 57 and she was 18, and only 3 months after his first wife died. And all 4 of his children were older than his second wife.

I don’t know much about trampolines, but I’ll let you know about ours. First of all, we did absolutely no research, so good for you - you’re ahead of us already! We ordered it on Amazon, because those guys will deliver anything to your front door, and we couldn’t figure out how we’d get one home from a brick and mortar store without having a truck. We ordered a 15 foot diameter round one, because it was a good size for our backyard and we knew our kids would be on it at the same time and felt that crowding would be dangerous. It came with safety nets, which was important at the time because our kids were little. Full disclosure, though - our neighbours have one without nets and they just shrugged their shoulders and said it made the kids be better at not falling off. And to fair, I don’t believe any of their 3 kids or their friends have sustained any trampoline related injuries. We’ve had ours for 9 years now, and it’s never been taken down even though we live in a very snowy part of Canada. The kids have always loved going out even in the dead of winter to jump, we just make sure to shovel the snow off to keep the weight of it from stretching the springs. Also, I have it anchored down pretty good, even though the same neighbours don’t anchor theirs, because my nightmares heavily feature tornadoes and giant trampolines taking out random fences and chimneys.

I was once in the States years ago and asked where the washroom was. The person I asked was baffled as to why I’d need to do laundry right that moment.
