    monday 10th

    mae all...start of a new week ..so hopefully everyone is a wee bit more positive this week..me included!!mbh ..was out yesterday and it did me the world of good..just to get my head straight ish..just like everyone else does ..tend to let things build up.. until suddenly that one brick becomes a wall!!Im great at giving advice ..not so great at taking it!! well thats it ...Downton Abbey has come to an end....Xmas special next!!oooh its all getting exciting!!
    so on we go with the show then.....

    tea and cawfee on the stove...not after next week..nae stove for 2 weeks..oh by the way...Xmas is officially on the way now....saw the Coca cola lorry advert for the first time yesterday!!

    morning ppqp...hows you today then?big brew for you too then ..has it stopped snowing yet?do you have to go out at all ...think I would be considering hibernation if it gets any deeper!!take it easy and if you have to go out ..be careful....

    hiya Sam...well mate..all I can say is ..the rain you get certainly make things grow over there!!look how quickly those hoop frames have grown up!!wow looks really smart ..apart from the obvious...I would never be out of there if it was mine..thanx for the pics....

    hiya SF...glad things for you are on the mend....also glad you didnt give in to the ole booze..yes appreciate it is a public forum,and that we dont want to put all our issues up here for various reasons,but wouldnt it be nice if we could ..Im still a great believer in a problem shared is a problem halved....but the other thing is..writing it doesnt give you the same expressionism ??as talking the issue thru face to face with someone

    mornin Lav...hows you today then ..glad bba ..stayed in order yesterday..where has he got this one from?..not really too much of a career in that one!!not a great demand for people going down the street with the ole bum and todger hanging out!!:happy2:you seem to have done pretty good at this CSA..bbt for you modom?

    Hiya SL...how are you today then?ok ?..glad you enjoyed your weekend out at the apple farms..as for shouting at that surgeon...wee piece of advice..if you ever need surgery or an op...choose very very carefully......!!! all not bad here....

    hiya tt..how are you ?dont know if you are still there..or have already started gallivanting about..but have a good time..yep I know its work related but you are getting out ..

    yes waas impressed to see the Queen at the cenotaph yesterday..despite all the threats and intelligence that was available....

    righty ho folks offski..I go..sanding wood down today final sand then undercoat..big shout to those not here n have a good day everyone....


    asked my wife to describe me in 5 words.

    She said I'm mature, I'm moral, I'm pure, I'm polite and I'm perfect.

    Then she added that I also had a fundamental lack of understanding about apostrophes and spaces.

    I went to see the film Interstellar.

    It's nothing to do with a man that likes lager.

    There's a story in today's paper about a woman in Florida who survived 45 minutes with no heart function.

    That's nothing. There are politicians who go through their entire lives with no brain function.

    Two lesbians are on a game show together and the host asks them about themselves:

    "So what do you two do?"
    "We work at a supermarket, one of us sells fruit and veg, and the other sells meat?"
    "I see. So, which one of you is the butcher?"

    They look at each other, think for a second and then one of them replies,
    "We're about the same really"

    Three vowels and four consonants are always in fashion.

    Recently I have been conducting a social experiment where I live as a hobo for a month.

    Remember though, I'm a professional - you shouldn't try it at home.

    I'm not saying my wife's fat, but when the scary bits come on Doctor Who the sofa hides behind her.

    Monday: Had a quarterpounder with cheese.
    Tuesday: Had a Brown Derby.
    Wednesday: Had a Bender and chips.
    Thursday: Had a Knickerbockerglory.
    Friday: Had a spicy beanbuger.
    Saturday: Had salad and onion rings.
    Sunday: Had chicken pizza.

    Diary of a Wimpy kid.

    My Chinese neighbours just had a baby and they asked me who it looked like more, the mum or the dad.

    I have been sitting here for 3 hours now without answering, I'm pretty sure this is a trick question.

    I've got a fear of people cleansing their teeth in enclosed spaces.

    Flosstraphobia.

    Hi folks. Quick check in. Not really gallivanting and not traveling anywhere at the moment but lots of things going on (I just want to sound mysterious like some folk here). Glad you didn't let the booze monster seduce you SF.
    Remembrance Day is tomorrow although we don't celebrate it as much as in the other Commonwealth places - as we have Anzac Day.

      Morning all!
      reckon I need to order some more freakin plastic....oh well, as my Grandpop used to say "experience is the best teacher, it is the most thorough". That being said, I did learn a lot. I have a spot where I want to do a smaller one on tracks so you can move it from one locale to another. Another beauutiful day out here. Got to enjoy them hilst there here. Old man winter seems to be hunkering down in the north extremes. He's got to be heading our way soon. I've put in a request to hold off till I get my plastic back up.

      Mick, glad you're back in form. How goes the kitchen project?

      TT, lady of mystery, enjoy your multiple activities!

      Lav, morning to you. Another pretty amazing day here on the eastern side of the USofA. Yep, got lots of bared butt chickens running around. Still got some fall color in the trees up your way?

      SF, so glad you chose to be good to yourself. We all have our moments. Some moments can turn to days, weeks, and years. That's what I have to tell myself, anyway.

      SL, we picked off our one and only apple tree last week. Didn't get too many, I don't spray anything and so we have fireblight running rampant. Boy are they tasty.

      PQ, I read about the weather coming your way, if it is not there already. Stay warm!!

      Det, how's the swording going. Been sounding pretty busy with that. I bet that's a heck of a workout.

      well, up and at 'em.

      have a good one everyone!

        Hey Mr Mick! You are sounding chipper this morning...

        Lav asked me to attend to her posting for a bit....she has had a family emergency and must attend to them closely. I hope you all will join me in wishing her extra strength this week....she is one of the strongest people I know but some extra prayers are in order for her and her family. Just letting you know she will be a bit scarce....I will keep you posted as she checks in with me, or finds a little time to get a hug from us all here. Love you, Lav....B

              MAE ALL...

              Mick...thanks for the kickoff and the brew. Glad you were able to continue you mystery tours yesterday. Nope, don't need to go anywhere today, planned my day off perfectly.

              TT...you take it easy with your plate full. Remember some me time. Had to check out Anzac Day so you've got a ways to go. Is it a holiday?

              Sam...yup, I'm in the thick of it now but the snow is going to come to an end. Just frigid temps to deal with. Looks like you've got a couple of days before it hits the eastern USA around Thursday. Get the rest of the plastic on before that.

              Birdie...thanks for letting us know about Lav. Tell her our thoughts and prayers are with her.

              Pauly...they do grow up don't they. Maybe it's time for that child gate to come out again.

              Mick...first time read your post to Pauly I thought you said you've had easier fights with "hammers" and I was going to question that till I read it the right wary.

              Off to fill up the coffee pot again. Have a Marvelous AF Monday all and all to come.....:smile:PPQP

                  Oh my - hope all is ok with Lav and she is able to use some of her words of wisdom to get through her situation...
                  Mick - maybe I should have been wiser, but I am hoping that with the changes I have made I will not end up on the liver transplant list - and then I can avoid the jerk.
                  Monday here - no school, so running the girls around (both have volunteering gigs today - but at other ends of the town of course) and trying to get my full days work in. They are off tomorrow, but i will be in office, so they will be up to their own mischief - hopefully sleeping in too

                    Think i'll do the majority of my posts here,it's easier for me to stay focused on a smaller group and also keep the focus on being a.f,i think i've tried to juggle everywhere and it's too much
                    I have too much shit to do today and tomorrow to drink:sohappy:

                          Greetings Abbers,

                          I just wanted to say thanks for the support & the private messages - I feel the love & appreciate all of you.

                          Sadly, last night my BIL decided to take his own life, in his garage. We are (were) neighbors.
                          He had lived with profound depression since his 18 year old son died in an AL related accident back in 2003. And yes, the choice he made to end his suffering was fueled by a day of hard drinking with a 'friend'.
                          He leaves a wife, a daughter & two very young grandchildren. This is the choice he made for himself. The rest of us are left to cope. Yet another example of how AL kills & kills again :sad:
                          It was very sad to watch YB have to go deal with the police & medic units & deal with the county coroner. That was his younger brother after all.

                          Wishing everyone a safe & cozy night! Be kind to yourselves & loved ones!

                          Lav
