  • Flamin' Nora! Not only able to multi quote, but that is powerful multi-tasking.
    I bow to the master :rolleyes: :p
    You need to add the more important bit to that quote. I used to be able to. Can't do it any more.

    Got my tiles laid though - the guillotine turned out to be the solution. As long as no-one notices that I've cut one of the tiles in the wrong direction...

    Which pillock thought it would be a good idea to put the directional arrows under the backing paper.

    iv had a dodgy couple of days as i had a car accident on thursday tea time, i wasnt really hurt as i wasnt going fast enough, but someone pulled out of a side junction straight into my passenger side and im realising now that its really jolted me and i have a few extra aches and pains. The police that attended to drag my useless car off the road asked me 'do you have any pain anywhere' :cool: should i have listed it??? :rotfl: at the time i didnt think i had any pains i dont usually have but the next day i could hardly move as all my muscles were so much stiffer than usual and i have a pain in my right shoulder i think where the seat belt stopped me? They took my lovely golf away and i had a rental car delivered yesterday :( its a brand new 2 litre injection peugeot 308!! i only needed something to tootle to the shops and to work which is 5 minutes away
    Ouch. My prescription is a warm room, a good book, a decent bar of chocolate and lots of rest 'til things settle down again.

    I hope you're feeling better soon.

    Well Done :T

    That would be a bloke then :rolleyes:

    Probably.

    Thanks. Still got to get the edging strips cut and laid, but that can wait 'til T/S gets home.

    Hi Blondie, welcome to the thread. Come on in, pull up a seat and feel free to join in.
    What she said. Twice. :D
    Now you're here, you'll never leave. And any life you thought you had will disappear as all you'll find yourself doing will be checking in on here for the latest goss...and to keep a tally count of how many times I can mention my wedding of course :p

    S/e seems to have expertly answered your query, Blondie, so I don't need to think about it... phewf! ;)

    Ta Pcl & Cwta:)

    Magenta, wondered where you'd been hiding, hope you're ok.

    Yellowrock: http://www.helpforibs.com/ and read about bee pollen on http://www.shirleys-wellness-cafe.com/bee.htm - it's supposed to be ace for you and replenishes all the nutrients etc that you've been missing. My brother and sister now swear by it. It can be a little expenny, but they get it in royal jelly/honey - something like that(!) - and spread it on toast/rice cakes for brekkie.

    I notice in a recent post, pain under the rib area was mentioned- again I am a subscriber to that!! I always go and get checked out by gp when I get a new pain/symptom, as this forum as taught me - never presume it is your fms. However, the majority of the time it is:(
    Twas me :wave: I've had it xrayed a couple of times but they never find anything.The left sided/pain under the ribs is really inconvenient - sometimes I can't sit up or bend. Grr.
    I would love to learn to know or something to do whilst I watch TV. I do like cross-stitch, but find it wearing on the neck with all the leaning over and squinting :rolleyes:
    I bought an uplight that also had an adjustable reading lamp which is ace for when I'm doing cross stitch. But I know what you mean -squinting at the plan thing gets a little wearing.
    By the way - someone has been stealing my spoons. I can find nary a teaspoon in the house and had to add suger and stir my tea with the end of a fork. I'll probably find I've put them somewhere bizarre. Or does a dishwasher eat spoons the way a washing machine eats socks?
    I think it's amusing that your losing your metaphorical and literal spoons :p And that you've lost your spoons, I've lost my forks and OH's lost his knives! Between us we might have a full set eh? :rolleyes: I sure have plenty of teaspoons though... which not being a brew person (I know, shock horror:cool:) I never use! (Apart from to savour the flavour of Ben&Jerry's, obviously :D)
    I've suddenly realised I've bought my first pair of semi-smart pull-on trousers??!! :eek:

    What has happened to my life? :confused:
    Dude, it's all over now. :rolleyes:
    I, however, look like either a chav or a child, with my comfy soft trackies and fleeces/hoodies :o
    Oi! I resemble that remark! :p
    Aksherly, I tend to run out of steam/flake out about 9.00 pm so I'm usually in bed by about 9.30.
    So nerny-nerny-ner-ner Cwta :p :rotfl:
    You could take up knitting - some of the simpler patterns can be done without too much attention being paid. Oh for the days when I used to be able to read, knit and watch TV all at the same time.
    Behave yourself s/e. Knitting so does require my attention. And thimbles. I can't deal with stabbing my finger or pushing the end of the knitting needle around with the end of my finger tip.

    hello everyone :wave: i see no one missed me then :confused: well i missed you lot ;):o
    i see a troll wandered in as i went out? :rolleyes:
    Of course we missed you! Don't be winking - you know it's true. In fact, I've been pondering to myself while you were away...didn't you mention an embarassing question you wanted to ask?
    And the less said about him the better.
    Hope you're recovering well from your wedding and it's not too much of a ball ache. And I'm glad you got a courtesy/hire car. I've not managed that and it's causing some major hassle. :(

    oh and before i go... did someone mention a wedding?? is someone getting married? it was such a slight mention im not sure if i got it wrong?

    ;) BZ fab photos thank you, the little flower you made are excellent, they must have been very fiddly.
    Har har. I'm sure you all think you're very funny :rolleyes:
    :D
    Ta very much. They were indeed very fiddly. Required round nosed pliers and lots of patience!

    I was Okish about it until I realised I was now halfway to the age I'm not going to be OK about. NO s/e and BZ, not 90, OK? :rolleyes:

    Yes I forgot to ask about that... on my mahoosive post(!) Glad you got it sorted... and don't worry -unless someone like me comes round, no one'll ever notice. I'm just one of those annoying super observant people that picks up on the little things though. :D

    Trouble is, I lived with someone who could spot a fault from a 1000yrds. Couldn't hold a paint brush mind, but could spot a fault... I got a bit sensitive about it after a while.

    Well, I might be like that, but it doesn't mean I mention it :rolleyes: I'm definitely not nasty about it. And even though I might notice it, doesn't mean I'll even do anything about it - not these days. I've got bigger worries to expend energy on!

    Hope I didn't touch a nerve...:o
