Good morning folks

 

[Deleted member 1258]

Oh yes the arthritis in my left hip isn't good this morning.

My back isn't either, it should be better later though.

I bimbled. Roads wet and very muggy but the rain held off. Just 24 miles but it'll do.

Weetabix time.

Good morning everyone. I have a mojo for sale ...... message me if you're interested.

Unsure about today. It's very windy in the village so will be blowing a gale on the top road. Sun keeps disappearing.

No idea what happened to my reply but your offer is gratefully accepted.
Forward your bank details and transfer will be immediate.

You really are like wonderwoman. You really do put me to shame. I have only just performed the sorry carcass elevation function.

I bought Weetabix Minis round the Co-op the other day, just because they were reduced and very cheap, but actually the'yre alright, so had them again this morning. Apparently I need more potassium, milk being a good source, it seemed a better idea than eating chunks of the stuff. I seem to remember watching chunks of it going round whizzing round a bowl of water in flames in chemistry lessons at school - not that I went too often as I used to bunk off and go cycling pretty often. lt least with this potassium I might cycle faster in the rain that being the case.

Now theirs a picture to contemplate .... you whizzing around in the rain in flames ...... and the days madness has hardly started ...

I get bother with bad cramp so have started taking a combined magnesium/potassium/calcium supplement. I think it is helping a bit.

I sometimes put warm milk in my Weetabix and it almost turns out like porridge.

Re Fathers Day.
Our son and wife split up some years ago and are now divorced.
We loved and still love the girl. We dont see her as she re-married and lives in America.
BUT.....she sent me some nice photos on Sunday......she calls me Poppa or in this case Father in Love.
A great pity it didn't work out.

That is THE reason I don't like them.....they just turn to mush.

At least people have the courage/sense to divorce earlier these days when things aren't working out. My memories of my parents growing up involve a lot of fighting/bickering/stony silences and feeling like piggy in the middle. They eventually did divorce but not until I was in my early twenties.

Ah but mush with chocolate chips in in this case. I already knew that banananananananananas are rich in potassium, so I have one in custard most days too. Danni makes me banananananananana cake too, she likes doing cooking and stuff. I prefer a hacksaw to a foodmixer.

@Dave7
Edit: having reread Mo's post - I concede you have a point.

 

[screenman]

We have two ex- daughter in laws, not seen either of them since they spilt, both were caught having affairs, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Good morning. I stayed in bed and now i have a headache. Over cast here at the moment.

Stay safe folks.

 

[Paulus]

I well remember that happening. I was a late developer so older than 2. Sadly my parents had not warned me and it frightened the life out of me. I wont go into detail but did find that I could push them back up

I can still remember the cough and b*****k test at secondary school. Probably in 1970. The nurse got you to drop your trousers had a bit of a grope and got you to cough to check the tackle was in place.

A good strong caffeine fix will hopefully help.
