I am so innocent, I had never even heard the euphemism until now. Did you take your pets on the walk? Is it similar to dogging?

It was more anti-dogging... I was being lead up an increasingly muddy footpath into the wilderness, when what sounded ( to me) like a very savage dog at a cottage we'd have had to walk past.

I am a right wuss and thought the dog sounded as if he'd do ANYTHING to get out and savage us, so I turned tail and hot-footed it back to the main road.

Definitely no dogging going on.

MIght you not have had it when you were too young to remember?

I don't think CK was ever young - when you see the list of what he's achieved so far there wasn't time to be young .... it's 3 lifetime's achievements and he's only about your age!

...cornflakes ...

Cornflakes? Who has time for those.... between my last posting session (2 hours ago?) and now I've written a completely new piece from scratch and upgraded two sets of photos on two past articles

No time for cornflakes in the world of "where the heck does money come from and how can I get more?"

I've not done that much, however something to remember here Pastures, is that I grew up in an environment with a large underground economy; my parents had to run a bit 'on the side', and I've followed on from that.

Work backside off = occasionally get there. That's what I've done

I'm not an OBE, or MBE or anything posh :eek:

Are you sure? Might you not have had it when you were too young to remember?

My mother says she's definitely sure. I don't know why, but anything like that + Ciclosporin (back to Methotrexate next month) = ouch!

I have just finished shopping for DH's birthday. All done without stepping outside the front door, I love the net. Best I get dressed now and go out to do the real shopping. Bah.

CK I keep meaning to ask you how long you have to go to Malmo for, whether it is for the semis, the jury finals, everything, or just the main event.

I thanked that, but I haven't a clue what it means.

Nor me. I think Pastures fibbed when she said she hadn't got a job and is really a cryptographer for MI5. Either that or she's just put in an order for Kung Pao Chicken.

Dr appt went well. So well I confirmed I was happy for the brain drain now. . And booked in a smear test. Re the spinal tap, they did suggest I might prefer a shunt to be put in then removed but it all seems highly unnecessary to me. ATM everything feels pretty good.

They are thinking about rubella vacc, I am robust ATM, and calling me back this afternoon. Dh has to speak to them himself. They said not a single other person has asked and they haven't thought about it.

Edit...on a roll I also made a hairdresser's appoint. The hairdresser is a friend of a friend. I hope they don't do an appalling job or it will all be socially awkward. I usually shy away from such situations, but its really local. They want to blow it straight afterwards. Il said yes, because I do it so very rarely it will be funny, but dh will not be happy, he hates imply hair straighted, or even dried to a wave.
