    I'm back with a BUMP - busy day today - meeting friends at Car Boot, shopping, paying bills, library, walk dogs - then home for a little rest
    I'm off to cook tea again and will be back later to chat

    ByeBye for now :beer:

    Lovely bump that spoon.

    Numpty maybe the piggies could scramble over your back and shoulders to give their own version of massage/acupunture. Though if you have been sleeping on the sofa again then thats probably why you are stiff/sore. Swimming is good for such things -perhaps you can go swimming in wol's stream?

    I think my brain is on standby or at least slow motion today.

    Glad you like the bump, Tixy, I thought it was a great one:)

    My brain has been on standby all week - unfortunately I realised at 4.30 that I had something urgent which had to be done by 6 - that woke it up with a start :eek::eek::eek:

    Just off to have something to eat now, back later

    BUMP from bottom of page 1

    Had a lovely tea - chicken (from freezer - reduced sticker at Tesco), carrots, green beans, roast squash, and a spinach & cheddar cheese topping - Yum Yum - it was nice :T

    Been clicking those clicks - will take a bit of time to build up to them fully I think :cool:

    But every penny counts - one - two - three .................. five thousand, five thousand and one .....................:rotfl:

    Hello peeps

    Sorry I havent been doing any bumping duties today but I spent the morning at the doctors..managed to get an emergency 5 minute appt this morning which turned into a 15 minute one as they had to go through all my old paper notes to find which antibiotic that I have had before without any ill effects in the hope that I don't get a reaction this time. It seems that I have a bacterial lung infection which is why I was incredibly poorly last night:eek: Thankfully, I don't need to see the medical student nor the video camera on Monday:j

    On a good note I had 2 x £2 coins in change in the supermarket so now I have £78 in my coffee jar and I am due a cheque for £5 from consumer intelligence for doing nothing but participate in a survey about car insurance - I found these consumer intelligence people on twitter and they send out mystery shopping trips too where they claim to pay you £50..I'd like more of them please.

    Hope everyone has had a fab day and will have a fabby weekend.

    Tixy - you made me laugh and induced a coughing fit at your description of the piggies own massage techniques

    Horace - hope those antibiotics work and you feel better soon - on your recommendation I had joined that mystery shopping site and I got that £5 message too - not bad for doing noffin' ain't it?? ;)

    Nargle - you OK pet? went past Gagens butchers today - nearly called in to get you one of their steak pies but hubbie would have eaten it before we got home :rotfl::rotfl:

    Tixy - I just can't get those massaging piggies out of my head :T :j :T

    Just doing a little thread reading - there are some great inspiring stories on here and soooooo much information it's hard to take it all in !! I think my brain needs a bit more RAM :p

    Hi all
    Horace - bacterial lung infection:eek:, hope the antibiotics start working soon
    Emily - good to see you again, hope you're OK?
    Nargle - sounds as though you've been busy at work, hope you feel better after a night's rest
    3Dogs - tea sounds yummy. I keep thinking about the daily clicks, but never quite getting there.... maybe I shall make a very late new year's resolution....

    'Night all
