faraday Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) It seems as if we are being 'homogenised', & being steered slowly into becoming 'good citizens'. Anyway, back on topic...???? The temperature has been disgustingly hot during the last couple of days, although it's 26°C at 05:50.( that's in the morning y'know) ???? I spoke with my sister in blighty on Tuesday, in her living room she's had a very fancy ( & expensive ????) gas fire installed. It was turned on as the 'weathers a bit chilly'. ????

Well..there is something to be said about ceasing to beat one's head against a a brick wall-the cessation of pain is said to be quite pleasant. I regret posting Mons.Voulez Vous to a tour of duty with the St Bernards ("Devil Dogs") not realizing that his tour of duty at the Front was likely to be unduly prolonged.. Has anyone read (or reading) any good books lately?A friend gave me Hilary Mantel's 'Wolf Hall'-an excellent read so far..you took a step out of line or misjudged the situation in Tudor days and you certainly got more than a headache... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he in the Covid/Vaccination threads creating havoc? It beggars belief. Something riles you on TV, just leave the thread and move to another.

I'm really sorry to appear so thick (stop laughing!) Are Twitter so thin skinned/sensitive that a global company can't accept a joke about the jab linked to a mobile network? It's not even directed at Twitter. Is this some kind of woke I keep hearing about? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Years since I was last in the UK so never heard of Smarty. Are they a Rowntree's diversification but with a Y ? Good you have had the Jab, as you know Thailand hopes 60% of the country will have had all theirs to coincide with Elon Musk landing on Mars. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My nonagenarian old man, has all his life been a very keen freshwater angler; retired from fishing last year. He used to keep his maggots in a tin in the fridge; it keeps them fresh longer from turning in to casters. One day when he wasn't home, someone knocked the tin which was on the fridge top shelf, the tin tumbled down, and there were maggots all over the fridge and over the floor - muggins here got the job of getting them all back in the tin as my mum was terrified of them. He was never again allowed to keep his maggots in the fridge. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it is UHT, but getting Chokchai in NBL is difficult, as often Makro no hab. Which milk do you use? ???? Worried about the word 'chink' Mr Sofa, gotta be so careful these days.
