I was in Brighton yesterday to see Kraftwerk
They were very good.

I found myself hugely moved by the memorial flowers at London Bridge and The Monument today.

Well, it's nearly night for me and it's an early night for me. Probably better than a nurly night, I guess.

Mr Summerdays bought me a new toy.... well it was on discount through his work, I've now got an activity tracker - a Withings Pulse. It doesn't detect cycling! But it did recognise that I'd done Zumba but not the Pilates tonight!

I'm now working off the calories deficiency created by said exercise with some wine, chips and fish....

I have finished catching up with this thread. It's taken 3 days to read a week's worth!

Amazing only last week i had one too.Top to toe.It seems i am in good nick for my age.But a question did bother me.Did i read a lot.I replied yes.Then he said well just a word of warning,don't buy any long novels .

Don't be put off. The person was probably a very slow reader anyway.

I haven't been around much. I've been a bit busy

Glad to hear it. <3

Just spent half an hour ****ing p***ing myself laughing reading this! IMO, one of CC's all-time-classics.

****ing enjoy!

How on earth did you stumble upon that thread?

There certainly is a limit hence the , any more than 4 plants and you're in 'farm market' territory

I usually have a couple of plants in pots but last summer I only got about 3 courgettes from each and loads of male flowers. This year I haven't got any because I won't be around enough to wate them. The runner beans aren't doing well despite all the sunshine rain , watering and plant food they've had. No flowers at all so far

Umbrella

All:
A gentleman's got a walking stick.
A seaman's got a gaff.
And the merry men of Robin Hood
They used a quarterstaff.
On the Spanish plains inside their canes
They hide their ruddy swords.
But we make do with an old bam-boo
And everyone applauds!
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - Hey!
Me ol' bam-boo, me ol' bam-boo
You'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo.
You can have me hat or me bum-ber-shoot
But you'd better never bother with me ol' bam-boo.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

You'd better never bother with me ol' bamboo.

I just had to sing that to myself as I read it!

Back from my little paid holiday with the dog nice and early, The family friend who's property we'd gone to stay in was having issues with little sods breaking in and destroying the place. A few nights ago they showed up, Got one hell of a shock when they discovered I was there. They're being dealt with by the authorities

Going to clean the bike and go for a good ride.

Well Done!!

I'm at the hospital for tests. Hope I pass.

I'm told tests are good, maybe no surgery.

Hope the good news continues...

@Hill Wimp is Sasha missing Henry as much as you are? I hope she is helping to console you.

One of the nursery children managed to pull the pin out of a fire extinguisher today. Luckily the site manager knew how to reinsert it before anyone else tried to let it off.

 

[Hill Wimp]

I agree it takes time before you feel like getting another cat. You will know when you are ready. Sasha was an only cat before Henry chose you, so I expect she will be okay without a junior companion.

She clearly misses him but she is coming out of her shell a bit more everyday. She is currently sat in his window in the bedroom which she has been avoiding for a while.

Are you trying to seduce me Mrs Robinson?

How much rocky road will I eat tonight while watching the election results?

All of it, I have beer and Pringles

All of it, I have beer and Pringles

Might be a challenge... There's nearly a kilo of the stuff...

 

[TVC]

And how much of those will you have?

Whatever Lu doesn't have

 

[Reynard]

I think I'll definitely be in need of a bike ride to work it off either way. I had to bail out of a longer ride today (rode to the polling station) because I kept being blown across the road.

We saw naked breasts
