Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Forgotten Town by The Christians is on now. There were some great Liverpoo bands in the 80s.

Anyway. What was it like administering the first ever COVID test with your tongue Ang?
I worked in the Land Registry with somebody who was the sister of one of The Christians. You're right - some really good 80s bands came out of Liverpool in that era.
I was very drunk but as far as I can recall it was a very pleasant experience.
 
This morning’s sort out of my friends‘ clutter proved to be an emotional experience. Sifting through the contents of her school briefcase ‘George’, tucked away in old exercise books we found some notes which we had passed between us during lessons. We obviously spent most lessons arranging to go to the coffee shop in town after school and football matches at the weekend! On a more poignant note we found a photo of her Mum which was probably taken for her 21st. birthday. Her Mum passed away at 48 when my friend was only 12. She had thought the photo was lost and was so pleased to have found it. We also found a letter she received from her late husband, sent when she and I had gone on holiday when we were 17. So laughter and tears aplenty.

So happy for you both…..
 
I take vitamin D in winter also, and I was reading an article the other day that says pale skin people need 15 mins of exposure to sunlight to get the necessary Vit D which isn’t a lot really is it. I also take C for boosting my immunity.

For some reason, I started taking Vit D months before Covid broke. I then read that it was recommended during Covid. Anyway while I caught Covid it was reasonably mild and got through it. I’m thinking of taking them again this year……
 

Morning all, looks like some of us are awake early this morning. Well between the reds and the party conference I can barely watch tv this week without my stress levels going through the roof. So I am off to do something nice this morning as I am going to choose my Christmas tree at a local Christmas tree nursery. We don’t pick it up til December before anyone thinks I’m a Christmas obsessed person and it just feels good to wander round the field until you see the one.
Hope everyone is well and have a great day 💙

Halloween and Christmas seem to have merged into one (in retail terms) the last few years. Christmas lights and light up pumpkins side by side in Tesco this week.

Just like the sunshine it is good to walk in with the trees normally called a forest but I am sure a nursery will do .

Same here about watching TV this week.
 
A goog night's sleep after a jenga session with family ,we got my GD to eat something she can't buy from a fast food shop yesterday !!! It was one thing I noticed when I came to Finland that the children eat anything put in front of them .
I hope all had as good a kip as we did and have a great day ,we are off on our normal shopping day sadly the girls are coming and that will mean every shop that has clothes in will need to be visited and I suspect that could be the tip of the iceberg .Wish us luck .
Have a great day all ,I hope @Terrarian is doing better today ,I do love to hear him complaining about Daisy and poo as we all know he is feeling better .
 
Morning all, back to the decorating for me this morning. Wallpapering the feature wall is on the agenda but I am on standby as moral support for daughter and grandkid no.4. who has blood test at the hospital this morning. SIL is off from work at the moment and has offered to go along but Jess is yet to make up her mind which of us she would like to go along. She has been promised a trip to Costa in the hospital atrium as reward for being good, there is a shop which sells those foil balloons and I suspect she may be weighing up whether me or her Dad will be the softer touch!
Have a good day all.💙
 
Morning, I'm not too bad today blue thanks. Been out with Daisy in the rain. Really need to do some housework but I cba lol bloody dog hairs do my head in. Even using the shedding brush daily it gets everywhere.

Not much going on other than that, shopping day tomorrow. I really need to go visit people as well but it's hard when you feel crappy to motivate myself.

Have a good day guys.
