Must be tough mate but try to think of the little things that give you pleasure like your lovely Daisy.
Beautiful here today mate and on the Vets advice just took the little fella for a short walk.
Had to carry him across the main road but he loved getting his sniffs!
He's tired now and having a kip.

I'm also back from my walk. Also tired and also going for a kip.

Sassy, we just had Nora (our dog not my missus) spayed we used a pet onesie, so much better than a cone, you just undo the back when the go outside for a whizz, and they can’t get at the stitches

Just trying to visualise your wife in a onesie.

She's Scottish so it would have to be a tartan one,

I wish I had one of those. I may go and look one at the pet store later this afternoon. The vet suggested to use an old one from my daughter’s but it was too big for my Fresca and she rolled right out, so back to the satellite we went ?

It must have been a good one, I thought you were going for a kip? What’s keeping you up?

What could this mean, Blue? And do you have enough for your needs?

Slumped on a chair at the moment. Just trying to motivate myself to go upstairs and change into my comfy gear.

Why don’t you just take your kip on the chair your are already slumped over?

It relates back to the Chernobyl nuclear melt down as the cloud came over Finland and the government advised taking iodine tablets to combat the effect . I am so old that a few tablets won't make a difference .

I usually do.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

I usually do.

Night, night then. Xxx

Wow so even though the nuclear disaster happened that long you all are still encourage to use iodine tablets. I can only imagine how toxic it must be for the people that actually still reside near that area. And now with the Russia attack there could be another ecological disaster. So even if you are too old for the tablets to make a difference, I still hope you find them again soon.

Morning guys. beautiful morning down here in Cornwall. My underwear collection will be relieved to know that my new washing machine will be delivered between 12 and 2pm. So from a practical point of view, it gives me ample time for a nice walk this afternoon if the weather holds out (which isn't a given down here).

Having slept on the matter, I retract my comments from yesterday regarding thread content. I believe people should be able to post on any subject they desire provided they aren't being offensive to anybody. It's up to other posters whether they wish to join in the conversation or not. I think one of the premises of this thread is that people are able to unload or unburden themselves of issues or problems and find support from the good people in here. It therefore seems silly to me if the same people feel unable to comment on probably one of the most worrying events to affect us in my living memory. So please completely erase my comments from yesterday from your mind.

Just off for a shower then I'm going to pop down to the local shop for a pasty and some posh sausages. Hope you all have a great day everyone.

Grateful for your description of a posh sausage Barney. I’m guessing proper butcher bought and not supermarket for starters.

Hello folks. Wooo hoo, it's Friday, I've just finished work, Liverpool trip tomorrow then another week to work before the Bilbao trip. @Sassy Colombian your kitty doesn't look sad, she looks absolutely furious with the cone of shame around her head. @larbert toffee glad you have tested negative and can go out, hope your wife is feeling better. @jazzy nice to hear Blue has been for a little walk out as well. Is he still visiting Granny for cuddles? @Barnfred 55 enjoy your kip - there's something lovely about an afternoon snooze. Mr F is currently snoring on the couch having finished work at 12.30 and had the hard task of going to the betting shop and finding his own way home. @Terrarian hope your headache has improved and @Methuselah hope all your hospital appointments go well.

The news is still very worrying and very sad. I've just been reading the story about the Ukranian border guards on Snake Island who told the Russian warship that demanded their surrender to go F*** itself. They were all killed. I also read the message from Everton's Mikolenko. Poor boy, he's 22, his parents are still in Ukraine. He must be worried sick.

I'm going to the gym in a few minutes. This has not been a good week. I was doing so well until I met my friends for lunch on Wednesday. There was cake, very rich, yummy delicious cheesecake. It all went downhill from there. I'm back on it today though but I know the upcoming weekend won't be good either so I'll just have to write this week off and move on.


Anyway off to don the Lycra, legwarmers and headband and pretend I'm Olivia Newton John! ? ? ? ? I wanna get physical. physical ?
