Unfortunately time hasn't been kind to the lady.

 

[BoldonLad]

You could make one


Well, I am feeling very virtuous. Couple of packs of cod fillets, more of that lovely salmon, some cold turkey breast, broccoli, cauliflower, apples, bananas and pears 😇 and Miss Molly got cat food 🐱

After THAT photograph?...., I don't think so...

That isn't a much better reply.

A Woman allowing a man to make up his own mind . You’re setting a dangerous precedent .

Make the most of it. It won't happen again

Do you ever feel you don't know if you are on your head or your a*se.
Again.......this is not a sympathy request.
Wife in hospital unable to walk.
Some days I can't walk (not bad today though)
Now I have the respite home on asking me to arrange for the 95 year old auntie to return home eg she needs a door removing, bed moving, various rails fitted and carers 4 times a day.... I have control of her bank accounts so need to agree to things.
Life, as they say is a @#$%+@#
I am going for a stroll

Unfortunately time isn't always kind. I'll stop digging now.

Bonjour. Has somebody put a shilling in the weather meter? It is actually sunny here near Bideford but I am sure it won't last. Rain must be on the way.
Have a good day every one.

Forecast good for the foreseeable future apparently.
I share your pessimism.

MrsD and I have decided to start taking our main meal of the day at lunchtime, instead of later in the evening.
Weight loss appears to be more successful when we do that.
Just about to have Chilli and rice.

 

[numbnuts]

Just done me walk of 4 miles 15c out, but the wind is still very cold

Dry but overcast with no wind so out on trike for a run on my nearest route. Monday seems to be less traffic than other days but some were strangers. Only 3 local vehicles on legitimate business.
No bird life to be seen on the Mishnish Lochs. There used to be a variety of ducks and some swans but today zilch. Even the buzzards have vanished.
Not heard the Sea Eagles for a while now. They make a sound like a small dog barking in places where there are definitely no small dogs.
Still some snow lingering on the higher peaks here but the tops of the Kintail mountains are totally white. They can just be seen above the smaller hills near Ben Resipol up Loch Sunart.
Need to go and continue clearing the wrecked polytunnel now.

We have been doing that for a while. A decent breakfast of fresh fruit and yogurt then a good, late lunch. That would do us for the day.
Don't think we lost weight but we didn't put any on.

 

[Dave7]

Just been for a short stroll to clear my head and it was short.
Surprised at how cold the wind is. Should have put a hat on.

 

[welsh dragon]

We always eat out main meal in the middle of the day. We've done that for years.

Beautiful sunny and warm here. I even have some washing on the line
