    WHY does Sir William's quote keep dropping off.....? :confused:

    Not sure how to take that ? :confused::D

    Falling off - I understand, dropping off :confused:

    Am actually having a couple of beers tonight, only two, mind. Had the headache from hell all day after messing around in the sun all morning. Paracetamol didn't want to shift it but the couple of beers have. Been a bit of a stressful day for Mrs Bhb, which obviously rubbed off on me.

    She has just filled out the form for Disability Living Allowance for our little one (8) (Aspergers / autism type thinghy). I think for her its just admiting there is something wrong, and feels like we are using him to gain some cash, whilst I, probably selfishly, am thinking well I've paid my taxes, and if its there for people like us why shouldn't we have it :confused: . Especially bearing in mind that we have been unable to have a couple of hours to ourselves or go out for a meal together in the last 8 years.

    Anyway, Mrs BHB is a bit upset, and has stressed me out a bit so she has a bottle of red and I have 2 bottles of Fursty Ferret ....... :rotfl::rotfl: .... Just love the name of that beer.:D

    So sorry guys - poor start to the new month :o

    Hope everyone else is doing better
