  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hello :)

I'm Craig and I live in Australia,

I'm new to being single and I'm loving the extra time I have for the Lord.

I've had a troubled past where my fiancée died 12 months ago.

I'm looking to make some life long friends :)

Lots of love in Christ Jesus.

Edit: This is my best animal friend :)

I have 38 years to look forward to with him God willing.

Say hello to teddy!

Hi Craig! I'm Jennie. :) Nice to officially meet you. I actually have noticed you in other parts of the forum. Haha I think what caught my eye was your epic beard!

I'm very sorry for your loss of your fiancée.

I think you'll be a good fit in singles. If you ever have any questions or want to talk feel free to PM me anytime. As you can see I'm around a lot, haha.

Tell Teddy I say Hi! He is such a cutie!

I don't really have any questions right now. Just mainly wanted to say welcome and Hi. :D

Hi Jennie,

Nice to meet you too :)

Thank you for your condolences.

And thank you for your welcome and introduction :)

I'll be sure to drop you a PM with questions.

I'll say Hi to teddy for you :D He's a funny bird, he actually flew away after I first got him earlier in the year.

I was devastated! but with my family's help and much prayer he was found one week later, 100m away, and apparently he was with the Rainbow Lorikeets (above movie) when the lovely lady who found him called us.

It was a nice little miracle :)

Okie dokie. :thumbsup:

Aww I bet that was really awful. :( I'm so glad you found him though! I guess he hasn't tried to fly away any more? Is he an inside or outside bird?

I've never had a bird before, but my great aunt had one. His name was Bubba, lol. All I remember is he made a LOT of noise and tried to bite me. :p So I haven't really had much experience with birds. But I think they're super cute.

Ooooooooooooo!

Oh stop :p

Haha, yeah bird's like to bite, and some breeds are fussy with how many people they bond with.

With teddy, and as soon as the sun is down and he begins to roost for the night he will get very short tempered and his eyes will dilate and he puffs his feathers and tries to bite :D

Teddy is an alexandrine, I'm unsure of his sex.

I called him teddy, he will grow a pink and black ring around his neck if he's a boy.

* I know I didn't think this through :D

I didn't clip his wings, so he's free to fly around in the house for a shot time and for breakfast/dinner,

He is very social and flies over to eat dinner, he has his own plate. :D

He loves mashed potato and oats!

Parrots are very rewarding, entertaining and surprisingly affectionate pets :)

Just have to watch out for your furniture, they chew everything!

I thought I should mention this since it's relevant to the conversation...

My Christian brother Craig and I met each other several months ago. I started a Christian group. The group kind of fell apart after awhile, but my and Craig's friendship remains.

I think this one only bonded with her. lol He would get on my shoulder like he was going to be friendly and then he'd bite my ear or shirt, Lol.

Does he eat at your dinner table when you eat too? If so, that is adorable. :D

I think parrots are really smart, and I love watching videos of them atleast. Lol

He smells it cooking and starts to get excited.
