General Chat

Dear All

Hello

Hope you are okay.

Earlier, I went off to the polling station to use my vote for the general election.

As I waited, holding my polling card, I was reminded of how lucky I was to be able to vote; in peace, without harassment and abuse.


Many millions around the world do not have this privilege, particularly women.

Many of those who can vote do so in fear of persecution and corruption.

Whether you decide to vote or not, that is a very personal choice.


May your day be a peaceful and contented one. <3

This post is lovingly dedicated to my grandmother and
my grand-dad, who sadly passed away before I was born. <3


Take gentle care
With many good wishes
Love Elizabeth, EOS

Well said Elizabeth <3

We have cast our votes this morning and I
too am grateful for the privilege of being able
to do so.

Have a lovely day Elizabeth :-)

We will cast our votes later on after OH gets in from work.

Love to Elizabeth <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

I quite agree with you Elizabeth - kind thoughts too :-)

We have been to the polling station and it was quite busy - lots of chat as well :-)

Best Wishes to you, Elizabeth :-)

Well said Elizabeth, hope your day continues to be peaceful. We are usually away in May so have a standing postal vote. So our votes were cast two weeks ago.

Hello Elizabeth.

It is, indeed, a privilege to be able to vote when so many around the world are denied this act of democracy.


We went to vote this morning and there was actually a queue......well, 4 or 5 people ahead of us and it seems the venue had been very busy!


Now we just have to wait for the outcome which, whatever it is, will certainly not please everyone. :-)

We voted this afternoon..Some of the representatives were stood outside with their 'colours' on. Not one spoke to us as we went in and out. Not one has knocked on our door in the 8 years we have lived here. So although I put my X I don't think any of them deserve my vote really.

Elizabeth as always <3

Hello Elizabeth .yes we are very lucky in our country long may it continue .Take care Barbra <3 <3 :-D

((hug)) for Elizabeth
I have did my duty :-D :-D

Well said Elizabeth.

I have voted.. :-)

Now go and vote Joy... ;-)

Dear All

Hello

Thank you so much for your replies. :-)

It was very kind of you ALL to respond.

I wonder what the youngsters who have reached
the eligible age think of voting?

Good weather usually means a large turnout at the polling stations.


Well for now, take gentle care, dear folks. <3

With lots of good wishes and hugs too
Love from Elizabeth, EOS
