    he has suggested some concerts that iv said NO to tho....deep purple ?? i am half expecting this scene of geriatric men shuffling out on stage ..... i think id rather remember how they WERE !

    Steady on! A lot of us 60+ year olds don't 'shuffle' anywhere! :p

    This geriatric has just reinstated the field water supply, stacked a load of logs and done a full shop in town, 20 miles away.;) Came home with a headache though! :(

    My 'puter is acting normally, CTC. Slow, but gets there.

    Rummer, how fascinating! Do you use your degree now? I'd really value your input on what we do and how we can do better still!

    I loved my degree and my OH has recently been working in the same kind of field although he is more microbe orientated. Not working in science now but I am happy to help if I can :)

    My dissertation was on the management of equine parasites and involved a lot of poop!

    Oh does anyone here grow spring greens? My beasts love them and I was thinking of growing them next year.

    .


    Mine involved horse poop too, but for a different reason :) There is a certain sort of degree that involves rifling past the poop, the sperm,the saliva in the shared student fridge when you get your milk out because the lab was closed when you were collecting poop/sperm at 4 am and your housemates the same.

    Its only people like us who could say this sort of thing but I would LOVE to have your input on all things poop and worms. :)
