I had a wife like that once. An entire room devoted to shoes and clothes most of which were never worn

Wouldn't worry too much, I bet they still reach the ground when you stand up.

I'll just try that to see if you are right !

A reasoned, sensible and civilised discussion?

Must have been following me.

 

[Deleted member 1258]

So thankful I love my job.

Being retired is great.

 

[Gwylan]

To sleep, perchance to dream...

Well that's you ravelled sleeve sorted then

Needs to know how to knit it up, tho...

Think it's a figure of speech

Think it's a figure of speech

It's a quote from Macbeth actually - act 2 scene 2.

Methought I heard a voice cry 'Sleep no more!
Macbeth does murder sleep', the innocent sleep,
Sleep that knits up the ravell'd sleeve of care,
The death of each day's life, sore labour's bath,
Balm of hurt minds, great nature's second course,
Chief nourisher in life's feast,--

 

[Reynard]

I had a and half a cinnamon bun earlier.

 

[Gwylan]

You surprise me.

I had to learn it. All the parts. It was that sort of school.
Frankly whether Will cribbed it all from Holingshead (sp) has had no impact on my life since then.
But I could fill the exam paper with quotes. My English teacher assured us that that's what we needed.
An intervention from the Almighty might have been more use

I've decided to don my waterproof socks as I'm likely to get precipitated on on my way back from where I'm riding to.

Oh, I had Sealskinz socks on the boat. Tend not to go cycling when it's that wet.

 

[Gwylan]

Hot chocolate time

Stick it out for 1 hour 53 minutes and the sun is over the yard arm here.

 

[Gwylan]

to go along w/ your big heart

And your lino laying skill

I sense you might have moved on ...

Oh yes a long time ago.
