  • Len,
    I think you need to do the opposite of taking life more seriously.

    I am not going to say a great deal more but the foock does 'chickens coming home to roost' mean?

    "reap what you sow" is what I think Len is meaning.

    But how many people do post their true situation in life on Facebook, especially if you are using your real name :eek:

    HOW TO AVOID THE COCONUT ONES IN THE SWEETIE TINS:-


    what we do is

    1. open ALL the tins
    2. Take out ALL the coconut ones
    3. put them in a bag and give them to a friend of ours who loves coconut ones :D

    Then all we have left is LOTS of NICE choccies :D :rotfl: :D

    How exciting. The lass who's 18th I helped to cater for on Sunday has just bought me a lovely bouquet of flowers.
    A star and flowers! All of a sudden my day is improving.:j

    Arghhhhh no, disaster...I have run out of dishwasher tablets :(
    Oh well, pound shops here I come.

    You can use washing powder - I do frequently when I run out - works just as well and leaves no smell.

    How lovely Bookie-I love getting flowers.

    I have always wished I could have a great big bunch delivered to me at work-but then, I am a hopeless romantic.

    *sigh*


    You ok Len?
