Yes, I noticed you were getting picked on (again). The same people would be crying "bullying" if they were on the receiving end.

Yes, she must get her talent from her mothers side of the family, because I cannot even draw a straight line with a ruler!
There are even more of her drawings here, not only dogs.

Chill Jon, we love you dude (in a manly, deep voiced, backslapping kind if way!)UPDATE
I have a screen shot of the post, but the offending post has now been removed by the mods, I BIG thank you to them.
It does seem that a certain few on here are constantly having a go at me personally, I don't mind people taking the piss for a laugh, I'm always up for a good joke, but these members keep raking things up from the past, if truth was known they would not have the guts to say it to my face.

Good afternoon. After the excess calories on the train yesterday, I went for a 26 miles ride earlier,including the climb up the Great Orme in lovely sunshine. Llandudno and all the beaches are packed with people. Covid must be a distant memory for them I take it. I kept my distance and just cycled away from them all.
At the bottom of the Orme, I passed this old lady on a ebike and stayed in front of her for most of the way until the last slope which is about 10%. I heard the whining of the motor coming up behind me and as she went past me, she shouted: " I am not going to be beaten!" She was about 75 and I never saw her again.
You really see all sorts when out on the bike.

No sorry, but it was direct attack on a post I made months ago and nothing to do with the post he put it on.
If people don't like what I say bloody tough, but why keep bringing it up time and time again, it's not the first time either from the same member.
There are quite a few on here that totally dislike me, maybe I just don't fit in with their life style as I have long hair, use the wrong deodorant, or ride the wrong bike.
There are 13 on my ignore list and all of them have attacked me personally after a comment I have made, why they do this I have no idea, but I ain't going to put up with it.

Some people are just arrissholes bud.
But there are plenty hereabouts that aren't.

There is nothing worse than a Doctor's Receptionist who insists you tell her what is wrong with you in a room full of other patients.
I know most of us have experienced this, and I love the way this guy handled it.
A 65-year-old man walked into a crowded waiting room and approached the desk.
The Receptionist said, 'Yes sir, what are you seeing the Doctor for today?'
'There's something wrong with my dick', he replied.
The receptionist became irritated and said, 'You shouldn't come into a crowded waiting room and say things like that. '
'Why not, you asked me what was wrong and I told you,' he said.
The Receptionist replied; 'Now you've caused some embarrassment in this room full of people. You should have said there is something wrong with your ear or something and discussed the problem further with the Doctor in private.'
The man replied, 'You shouldn't ask people questions in a roomful of strangers, if the answer could embarrass anyone. The man walked out, waited several minutes, and then re-entered.
The Receptionist smiled smugly and asked, 'Yes??'
'There's something wrong with my ear,' he stated.
The Receptionist nodded approvingly and smiled, knowing he had taken her advice.. 'And what is wrong with your ear, Sir?'
'I can't piss out of it,' he replied.
The waiting room erupted in laughter...
Mess with seniors, and you're going to lose....(yep, sure are)

I've come close to that, very close.
I had a phone call from the Doctors surgery yesterday. I was a bit apprehensive as I'd had a blood test at the Hospital on Wednesday so I thought something might have cropped up. It was a lady offering me an appointment to come in for the administration of the Shingles vaccine. I asked " are you the Doctor? " to which she replied "no " I then asked why there was no checking of Medical records at the Practice prior to offering a vaccine that might be unsuitable and requested that she discuss it with the Doctors and hung up.
I was quite angry because I'd previously been offered the Shingles vaccine on two occasions, both by text message. I ignored the first, and after the second I went in to the Surgery and explained to the receptionist that had my records been checked they would see that I was Immune compromised and the Shingles vaccine could have adverse effects. You would hope that had I not been aware of this ( I'd checked with my Consultant after the first text message ) that if, out of ignorance I'd attended the Shingles vaccine clinic, there would have been cross checks and I wouldn't be given the vaccine. I'm not convinced however, as I know the various jabs are usually administered by Nurses. The Practice also has a financial incentive to vaccinate as many people as they can as they are paid per patient.
I'm still a bit miffed about it, I've got an appointment with my Consultant on Wednesday for the latest " Scores on the Doors " I'll mention it to her and see what her reaction is.
Sorry for the rant, I feel a bit better now

Sorry - may end up as a rant but I thought you lot might understand
Grandson was 5 yesterday - had an extended family tea today in a local pub
great place as it has a large outdoor area with a playground a diddy football pitch
kids eat early - so table booked for 5
4 kids present - 10 months old brother, 4 year old cousin, the 5 year old birthday boy and his 9 year old sister
kids starters appeared after 6 - way after ordering - 9 year old was winging like mad and 'pops' had had to 'have a word' which is unusual
kids mains arrived shortly after which they mostly wanted to play
so when - way after 7 - the adults mains arrived 2 fathers had to be outside supervising so I had to eat fast and go out to supervise while Dads went to eat their now cold mixed grills
kids also go to bed early and have had to very active days - and are now tired and grumpy
and 'someone' decides everyone has to 'pay for what they had'
so - using one bill - we had to work out the total of what we had
amid a load of grumpy tired kids who needed to get home
ours (me and my wife) happened to have the cheapest mains and all the starters we pretty much the same price
and we had 2 cokes between us - which were cheaper than I expected
so I ended up paying only £36 for both of us
the other blokes (because) added their own up and paid
but we still ended up £18 short - more than either of our totals
someone was being dodgy or was rubbish at maths - and none of us are bad at maths given our jobs
Yea Gods why do people do that - we would have paid the least and would have been happy to split the bill - but no - pay for what you had
and to top it all someone suggested that I took the bill home and checked it
I DID AND WE DAMN WELL PAID OVER AS I EXPECTED
but someone will still think I was the one who underpaid bacuse
a) I paid least per person
b) when it became clear I was the first to offer to make up the difference but my wife's son was faced with 3 screaming kids and a stressed parter so just put it on his card
I damn well bet I know who 'got it wrong'
and it damn well wasn;t anyone who was out in the playground supervising kids!!!!
sorry - end rant
sorry - edit - restart rant
and the damn food was rubbish as well
end rant
