Thanks Hod, but trust me I’m no better than anyone.....We all have our problems and this thread is great that we share them and support each other. Life goes on and it’s what each of us can make of it....let’s hope Jose and Spurs can give us all a lift in these challenging times and also spare a thought for EX who also lost his wife but still finds time in his schedule to come on here and keep us so well informed about a diverse range of topics.
Thanks EX...you too..
You can never have too many seems to be the answer at the moment.Great question there Steve, in our dilapidated town centre we have 7 coffee/tea shops, Costa, pay a fortune for, Coffee etc.
I guess all good things come to temporary halt...rest up ready for a new campaign soon...I have decided that I am going to shag myself into an early grave, and I was well on my way before Covid... I was also going to drink my way there, but have slowed to a halt in that front...lol!
Very good Walt, other than that look! you get, I get emails to tell me or in the missus's own words just quiet reminders lol! who ever thought up techno' needs shooting, cant get way now.Good morning all , bit dreary this morning , but then so is the weather .
I didn’t do any of the things I thought I would yesterday , how could I be so naive to think those things were important . They were nowhere near as important as peeling about fifty garlic bulbs into their little slice things , like (chocolate orange sections) that could be put into some machine that hides in one of the cupboards in the magic room , and turned into a pure A ! Don’t ask me ! Took me ages to get all that papery stuff off . Whoever thought it was a great idea to grow these things . Life was so much easier when I was busy at work and we bought things from Asda already done .
Then , In my new vocation in life as a soo chef , ...... again , don’t ask me ! ...... , there was a pile of potatoes to peel and a bucket full of gooseberries that needed the tinyest of “root “ pulled out , and then I was told my plums needed washing . Well they would wouldn’t they !
After all that , I was despatched to the shops because we were short of something that I can’t remember , so I gave up on doing blokes stuff and watched the snooker . I just know I will get a bollocking the next time the gate creaks and next doors fence looks better than ours , and when I explain why , I will get another one of those ........ looks !
Stay safe everyone , never underestimate the power of something you can’t see . I found that out yesterday . All those jobs I couldn’t see , were just there waiting for me . Who knew !
Maybe today I will get the gate done , doubt it . Got to go , agendas don’t set themselves you know .

I done some repairs on my aviary yesterday, but the time working inside my bloody phone didn't stop and quips from the lady of the house of "what about this that job" hmmm I thought more peace when running my business.
Keep keeping safe all and watch out for the numpties.
Nick, I saw that, Kemp wasnt/isnt allergic, no way will I show her that prog, after all according to the Doctor if it wasn't for her Matron mate acting so promptly the Missus would have died, a bloody bee sting, again according to Doc it was because of the ailment she suffers with, for life by the way and no cure, that reacted as it did, since Sunday my missus has had at least 6 calls from the Docs, checking and informing her of what she can take and not take medicine wise, quick deliveries from the chemist.I see Ross Kemp got the sting in the mouth treatment. He has posted a video on Sky News. I think he got attacked by a few of them I his loft. I just thought you could show your wife , she is not the only one. Ross did the Mick Jagger thing as his lips have ballooned. I guess you didnt go around singing I cant get no, or Jumping Jack Flash around her !! I know it was worrying for you and I hope all is well now.
Not an easy situation Pompey but look at it this way...her first Bee sting in all her years..what are the odds of another? I had one when I was 10 and haven’t had another since...the odds against must be in her favour...stay strong and careful of course.Nick, I saw that, Kemp wasnt/isnt allergic, no way will I show her that prog, after all according to the Doctor if it wasn't for her Matron mate acting so promptly the Missus would have died, a bloody bee sting, again according to Doc it was because of the ailment she suffers with, for life by the way and no cure, that reacted as it did, since Sunday my missus has had at least 6 calls from the Docs, checking and informing her of what she can take and not take medicine wise, quick deliveries from the chemist.
There is now a fear of outdoors for her, but today all swelling gone and still some pain, we are both very fingers crossed, and I am desperately trying not to show how worried and scared for her I am, for the life of me I cannot remember being so scared even compared to the military situations I was in
Thanks for asking, you keep well also mate.
The chances of getting stung by a bee are very unlikely . That’s not to say it won’t happen again , but it’s human nature to be worried. .The good thing is that she now knows how to deal with it and how to treat the after affects , that puts her in a better position than most . All she has to do is come to terms with that , and I know that isn’t easy . I wish them both well .Not an easy situation Pompey but look at it this way...her first Bee sting in all her years..what are the odds of another?

Haha US, that's what you get for lagging behind us, 5 hours on average I think, mind at times I think I lag behind by as much, age you see.I love this damn thread! One of my favorite. All of you are such special unique folks...and I have grown to know many of you...the only thing that is missing is meeting in person over some fine beer! (damn that would be fun!)
Apologies I don't post much on this particular thread...I am a bit out of synch for 'good morning'. When I get around to checking in on you guys...it is usually much later than morning!
I will try to do better. I also need to post some pictures.
Take care all, stay safe and healthy!
EX - Shaggin himself into an early grave...damn that made me laugh!
