Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Not a fully fledged one. My mate was crazy about them so I sort of went along with it. Donny Osmond was my boy back in the day.
You were normally in one camp or the other. I had a bit of a crush on Marie I have to admit. But I also had crushes on Dana and the blonde one from the New Seekers. Then Suzie Quotro came along and blew them all away?

Loved Suzi. Got detention for doing a whole Devil Gate Drive routine using my hockey stick as a guitar. The nuns were not impressed!
 

Good morning, friends.

Another snowy night and another day off since all schools have been closed for the day due to the snow and road conditions. Yesterday some of the snow melted on the roads but then the temperature dropped to -6 C so whatever melted has frozen again and some in form of black ice and driving over it can be very dangerous. So no gym again for me this morning, just when I was getting into my routine the weather ruins it. I’m going to do my workout here at home but it is not quite the same as I don’t have all the weight equipment but it is better than just being lazy again. I already had the weekend for that and after a couple of days I’m itching to do something. Later today im to help my daughter complete some school assignments so I’ll be busy with her for a while.

I still haven’t heard anything about the job and given the college has been closed because of the snow, it is going to be days if not weeks before I get invited for an interview. Moreover, we are expecting to have another snow storm on Friday so it seems January it’s not going to be a very productive month.

As I mentioned yesterday, I’m very happy to have seen Benitez go, even his goodbye statement was about him not being the one at fault ? But now after reading all the rumours of whom could potentially replace him, I’m fearful the Club is not going to get it right again but I hope I’m wrong. I really hope it is not Mourinho, he will be another toxic appointment and one I wouldn’t welcome.

Edit: oh my the number of polls and threads that have been posted regarding the new manager appointment is also getting out of control lol

Not Martinez although I did like him at the time. Belgium have won bog all despite the players they have and being ranked 1 for ages. I'd like Rooney. What he is doing at Derby, who are in a far worse mess than Everton, is astonishing and up until about a week ago was barely mentioned. There's something about Lampard that makes me dislike him intensely. I don't really know what. Didn't think he set the world on fire at Chelsea. The disappointed Evertonian inside me is expecting another underwhelming appointment like Koeman or Benitez. Step forward Nuno Espirito Sanchez. Curve ball - I wouldn't mind the Danish guy from Brentford. I'm so over southern Europeans. Hasn't worked! ??
Re Frank Lampard, he looks as though he should be modelling jumpers on knitting patterns.?
 
Morning everyone, how you all doing. hope your well. Headaches are kicking my ass a bit. Good news Benitez has gone, let's move forward.
Terrain, I hope your headache improves throughout the day. Have you ever tried acupressure to see if it helps you relieve some of your pain? There is lots of articles and YouTube videos to learn about them but here is a chart of the pressure points that help with headaches.

Had a fairly quiet day today alcohol wise. Just the 3 pints in total. Tomorrow and Wednesday are the heavy drinking days though so not sure what sort of state I'll be for catching up on the forum.
Have fun with Cal’s mates, Fred. Just make sure to keep yourself hydrated, that means drinking something else besides the alcohol, so you won’t be suffering too much with a hangover tomorrow.

I used to get acupuncture a lot off my old Dr but since he retired nobody else does it and I can't afford to go private.

I've just got a lot of damage caused by the discs wearing away and it is really hard to find positions to sit in that don't exacerbate it. My headaches all come from the same place, it's not like a generic headache if you know what I mean, it's caused by damage to my spine and nerves. It sucks.
 
Hey there are a few Mascoteers up early today so morning to everyone.

@fandjango thanks buddy for your assistance o guitar valuation , the animals will love you.

@Barnfred 55 sounds like you are doing well mate . Good stuff.

Another gorgeous day here. Cold of course but very dry. So off to stock up on supplies for mum and then believe it or not I'm going to cut the grass.

@Sassy Colombian hope you aren't snowed in and soon get good news about the job.

Have a lovely day everyone.
Jazzy, you are such a productive retiree. I’m sure the grass is looking lovely by now :)
