My wife has bought me some marzipan fruits.
I doubt if they will last long.

Luckily for you, I have a stock of marzipan at the moment, otherwise I would be requiring you to send yours here. In the matter of marzipan, I suggest stealth (and of course complete obedience once I'm onto you).

I've accidentally done something that may kill me.
I've swallowed a fly.

You could try swallowing a spider to catch the fly. I don't know why.

Just don't lose track of your calorie intake.

I've just taken a load of washing out of the machine.

More details would be good.

Powder or liquid
Drying indoors or out

Just come back from Lacock at War. There were quite a few people wandering around. A few of them were in uniform and I think there may have been a few fifth column, column, nists.
It was a good show, there were quite a few bicycles there. It is on again tomorrow.

We watched The Grand Day Out on the BBC. I was waiting for the reference to Stinking Bishop cheese. All I heard was 'stinking', which sounded clipped!

Some might ask why i flushed the dishcloth down the toilet

I don't think anybody cares

Deactivated my FB account earlier today, feels quite liberating being free from all the nonsense on there.

Just a few more sites to do, going to limit my internet use to just a few important things, doubt I'll miss it very much.

I haven't used my FB account since the New Year. Life is better without that shite, for sure.

Did a bit of simulated caving and amusement arcade soft cuddly toy grabbing thingy a little while ago. My daughter's boyfriend had dropped the air-conditioning valve cap inside his car's engine bay.
Out with some tools and a torch to look for the little bl*****r! Finally found it hiding and tried to reach it with my grabber. Just like those soft toy game machines ,when you think you have got it slips from your grasp ! . The search was on again! This time I crawled underneath the car to loosen the undertray.
I found it ! And again it slipped from the grabber before I could reach it. I went round to the other side of the car and crawled underneath to remove some more bolts. Finally the undertray was loose, but I was stuck! Ears tend to act like the barbs on an arrow. They allow movement in one direction but not in the other.
After some wriggling I managed to reach the valve cap and extricate myself from underneath the car.
Fitted the valve cap and then bolted the undertray back up.

Do you still have the ears attached?

Do you still have the ears attached?

To the car or my head ?

After a Villages, two Bedlams and a Wantsum, I can vouch for a temporary absence of sobriety.

 

[TheDoctor]

why did you swallow a fly??

I don't know why.
I didn't die!
Although, after spending all evening drinking I might wish I had tomorrow...

Had a lovely day at the show, handled some superb household pets. Deciding the winners of some classes was like asking me if I'd want my left leg sawn off or my right leg sawn off...

Got all my reports squared away while everything is still fresh in my mind. Will tweak them a little in the morning if need be, then send them off.

Really tired now, so going to head off to the Land of Nod as soon as I have finished my
