Didn't we used to call Heat Waves "Summer"? They were hot, and were some time between May and September

I do hope he's OK

Do bees need water? I didn't know that. What happens if the bee's knees get wet?

That's the idea of the marbles, they're so the Bees can stand on them and then they don't drown.

I now have a really whacking great big purple bruise on the inside of my left thigh where I jammed the saddle into it on Saturday night. It's really rather sore.

On the upsides, my broadband is speeding up again - instead of being 1/10 of what it should be, it's now 1/3 of what it should be. When the best you can get is 1.5 mb/s, the difference is startling.

I did something similar a few weeks ago, missed the clip and foot slipped of the pedal, banged the side of my arse on the nose of the saddle staying on and ended up with a bruise the stretched from hip to knee, for a week I could only sit on one cheek.

Amongst my medication is low dose aspirin and clopidogrel, one's a blood thinner and one's anti clotting, which probably explains the size of the bruise in relation to the minor knock that caused it.

Not just you.

Sock pairs are hung next to each other. All garments have to have matching pegs that either compliment or match the item. I have a mixture of white, coloured and wooden pegs in large and small sizes plus some special non-marking pegs for delicates.
Everything has to be reshaped carefully too to make ironing easier. I hate ironing but I am very particular about it. Although I'm loving taking all the ironing outside for the past few weeks.

I would have awarded at least 3 likes for this post if I could.

You have a milk crate with room for 6 bottles arranged in two threes, side by side and parallel to the handle. You have 5 empty bottles for the milkman to collect. Do you A/ leave an empty space in the middle or B/ only put out 4 bottles so as to maintain symmetry in the crate?

You drink an additional pint of milk before bed to ensure that the crate is full and symetrical.

[QUOTE 5299239, member: 10119"]I think so too. But am counting my relative blessings - the school originally tried to go for shirt, tie and blazer a few years back but that was hugely unpopular in the student and parent consultations so they didn't change it, had a rethink, and came up with this instead which they found easier to get accepted by enough families to implement.[/QUOTE]

Sounds like they are wasting a lot of time and energy there. Why the insistence about Uniforms at all?

Good grief, the things you come across when you haven't got your gun.
