Tony F Dordogne Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 We love our gay daughter as much as we could ever love our other children. She is brave, resourceful and an absolute joy in our lives, 30 something, daft as a brush but we wouldn't want her any other way. And our gay cousin, gay nephew and my dear gay old uncle and his partner, wonderful men who taught me so much about how important difference is.It's the differences that makes life interesting and exciting, how boring if we were all the same - safe perhaps but somebody would end up being different in some way.

Renaud Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 "I don't want my grandchildren to be brought up in a world where they are taught that there is a third way. "I am confused by MOP's statement. If straights have a first way, gays persumably have a second - what is this third way?Or does it relate to Tony Blair's politics? In which case I am in agreement.

Iceni Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 But as most gays seem to be single that means that they have 2 ways, doth it not ? In which case restricting straights to just one way at a time is unfair - how about equal rights ?Don't agree that children should be brought up ignorant of the realities of life - in particular, the real risk to children seems not to be from gays but paedophiles and incestuous relatives including grandparents of course.Johnnot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quillan Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 Is the third way what WC Fields said "It's the thing you do the most with the one you love the most" and I don't think he was talking about partners of any sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agenais Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 Interesting thread that this turned into :) As another, apparently, genetically defective couple,[Z] [Z] we are happy to be living in 47, been here for over three years and we aren't the only genetically modified people in the village.[:D] [D][D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polycarpe Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Wow! I never realised that I was genetically modified. First the first time in my life I'm a la mode. Thanks, Agenais.This GM couple moved here to Limoux (11) for the cuisine, the Blanquette de Limoux "Le Brut Original", the varied countryside which offers us lots of walking, swimming and picnicking, and a pace of life that allows us to pass the time of day with our neighbours who are a mixed lot, much like all of you, and lovely to be with.Wishing you all [D] Une Bonne Annee[D] (just imagine the accent)Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owens88 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Strikes me that it would be a good idea to have a map (all of France) and let people place 'markers'. Perhaps red for ft relocation, R/w for living and also running a gite/Cdh and blue for second homers / part-timers? Or something like that.How do I 'cross-post' this into suggestions for the forum?Cheers all John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well chilly though, generally a few degrees colder than here and at the moment we've cranked the heating up full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
