  1. I've got one. I take pills at 8pm and measure the systolic, diastolic & pulse at 10pm. Sometimes I forget to take the readings, but I have about 2,600 readings written in a note pad. I recently stopped taking the pills for 5 days. The readings went from about 115/65 pulse 65 to 155/85 pulse 70. I'm back on the pills now.
  2. Two people I know have died of cancer - one very recently. I wonder if they had known the months of "zero quality of life" awaiting them, whether they would have - or could have - ended the agony earlier.
  3. Of course they don't. They also didn't want to be bombed by the Kiev government in 2014.
  4. Don't ascribe to me feelings that I do not have. I read what is going on from more sources than you, and I report on what I read. As for your "FYI": 22% of Ukrainians declared Russian as their native language but 36% said that they speak Russian at home.
  5. Thanks for the info! Not so bad after all: Not my real birth date:
  6. Take it back to where you bought it.
  7. I second this, I know many farmers that take HUGE pride in the welfare of their animals - this makes not only moral sense but financial sense. Happy, well content & stress free animals produce better So this: "Babies still wet from birth were tossed into flimsy outdoor plastic huts" - is possibly not exactly true?? ???? https://animalequality.org/blog/2022/03/08/our-global-mission-to-expose-dairys-hidden-cruelty/
  8. Exactly what I was going to post.
  9. But don't cows like to be milked? And then we get butter, too. Win-win situation?
  10. Job done. Decided to suffocate the little ******s: So I did: And that plastic bag is now inside a big dustbin liner in the shed out back. I'll leave it for a week or two. I'll check the new post box daily and give it a spray with Chaindrite.
  11. I just put a small jug 1/2 full of distilled white vinegar in the box. I covered half the top of the jug with strips of sellotape so if my electric bill comes tomorrow, it hopefully won't get wet.
  12. "My" wasps have quite a narrow single yellow/green band around their abdomen, near the end of the abdomen. Not sure if the colour is important - could be caused by the blue post box reflecting its light onto the wasp.
  13. I was actually thinking of writing a warning in Thai, something like: "Beware! Bees inside!" and sticking it on the post box. But then I thought maybe I'd be sued by a stung postman for not getting rid of them sooner ???? . So are they bees or wasps? This better photo should clear that up:
  14. The full story is, my landlord opened up the box to show me a lot of water laying in the bottom. He put his hand inside and got stung. Then lots of bees/wasps came out and started buzzing around us. He wanted to show me the water laying in the bottom because he had earlier removed a bill that was soaking wet, and gave it to me. He wasn't stung that time. But because 6 to 10 of these bugs started buzzing around us, I'm a little apprehensive of setting them off again by spraying them. I was hoping there was some dry powder or chemical that I could put in there, run away and go back when the deed was done.
  15. Here's a picture of the inside of my post box: The brown blob at the back is a bees nest (or wasps nest). I've circled three of the bugs: My landlord has already been stung once after putting his hand inside. I don't want anyone else to get stung! So the question is: How to get rid of them?
  16. Sacked Ukraine Commissioner admits to LYING over Russian atrocities to get more weapons 9 June, 2022 https://unitynewsnetwork.co.uk/sacked-ukraine-commissioner-admits-to-lying-over-russian-atrocities-to-get-more-weapons/
  17. Not? Google: iEarlGrey youtube "Some Choice Words for @Aiden Aslin"
  18. I just checked my cheque book - a 25 quid cheque sent to my brother in England for "postage" in November 2012.
  19. Please come to Makro and watch the dullards lovely people attempting to pay using their phones.
  20. The reality: 1. Fumble in your pocket or handbag for your phone. 2. Switch it on. 3. Swipe until you find the banking app. 4. Tap it and wait for it to open. 5. Find the buttons to get to "Scan". 6. Tap "Scan" and wait for app to run. 7. Point phone at QR code and wait for response. 8. Try again because it didn't work. 9. Enter the amount if required. 10. Enter your security number. 11. Enter your correct security number. 12. Wait for a beep. 13. Close app and put phone back in your pocket/handbag. 14. Take bill from cashier.
  21. I used to hear the thumping bass from this track in the late 60's booming through the wall of Dino's coffee bar in Beachlands, Hayling Island, while I collected money from the tourists parking their cars on the beach for 2/6d (4/- on Sundays).
