Hello from OntarioEarly last Tuesday morning I went for a swim. I was swimming out from the breach when a Bottlenosed Dolphin breached a few yards ahead of me. It was amazing. I could see every detail of the colours on it's side, a mottled grey, brown and amber and I could clearly see it's eye. It was like slow motion and so beautiful as it curved up out of the water ahead of me. It looked huge because I was in the water, but interestingly it was not all all frightening. I feel very privileged to have had this experience.ViewDate:

Should childhood vaccination be mandatory?Vaccination protects children from illnesses that can kill them. Leaving children unvaccinated poses a significant risk to their health and wellbeing. If parents exposed their children to this level of risk, in any other situation, their children would be seen to be at risk and in need of protection. Parents who care so little about the safety of their children that they leave them unvaccinated are not fit to raise children. I have seen children die from illnesses that are entirely preventable. Heartbreaking and unnecessary. Vaccination should be compulsory.ViewDate:

Hello from OntarioHello Don, I have just joined the forum and am finding my way round. I live in the UK. I am 68, although I can't really believe I am that old! I care for my husband who has Dementia. I am lonely for intelligent and interesting company and I thought Silver Surfers might help with this. Like you I have lots of interests. I am currently in Wales enjoying the wonderful summer weather. Yesterday I walked miles up into the beautifulhills and then down to the beach for an evening swim. Bliss!
