  • ITSME.. yes it the razor blade throat...blocked nose, feels like I want to rip the front of my face off:rotfl: I have come home from work now..so watching morning tv:eek::D

    BD... that is a good idea, have a drive around, and put thing into perspective...


    Rhiwie... You are def right, we should realise we have got it good compared to people that went through the great war 100 years ago, ( and also WWII).

    quick pop in...:D

    thanks rhiwi.. i tried some BIN's last night on items id relisted and sold 2 :j:j by this morning :D

    so i think thats what im going to do in future and see what happens :D

    hot day here today :)

    new cob has turned out to be a houdini...:cool: workmen kept telling me he was in the wrong field and id fetch him out... checked the fence [a hedge ,with wire BOTH sides of a ditch ??]and puzzled ...then i spotted him from friends terrace balcony.. he was sqeezing between bushes at the end of fence, walking the ditch up to the ONE bit that has lost a strand of wire, ducked under it and up through the hedge t'other side..:eek:

    im amazed he worked out the logistics cos we couldnt when we walked it looking...:rotfl::rotfl:

    all the gateways are looking great :D hardcore, the special matting then a top soil. the corral will be great for schooling ruby as it wont mud up now. [got drainage pipes like the underground !] theyve done a brilliant job.
    i will add that apparently the floor in the big field shelter is having these heat retaining balls mixed in the new cement floor as "underfloor insulation".....:eek: whatever next !!
    i was laughing saying i will be wrapped in 2 coats, wellies and hat mid winter to feed em and they will be swanning around in there laughing at me ....:rotfl::rotfl:

    ooops ... not such a "quick one" :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    :mad: today has been a day of running around and trying to fix the mistakes of others. What I really want now is a big slab of cake, glass of wine and a bubble bath. Sadly all three are out so I will need to be content with bad TV :(

    :rotfl: alfie, Animals certainly keep us humans on our toes. It's all sounding wonderful on this side of your life, anyway. Just the cottage muppets to sort out.

    My cough is ....... bronchitis :( I shall rattle for the next week until going back to the doc.
    Hopefully the rattly chest will gradually be replaced by the rattle of pills digesting. :D
    10 pills per day is a lot for someone who tries not to take medication unless absolutely necessary. I just know I'm going to get them all to c*ck. Why is it that when you're a bit poorly & brain even vaguer than normal that you get "Now these are one twice a day at 12 hour intervals. These 2 are both one a day - take one morning & the other at night. These are 2 three times a day with meals but try not to take them after 3pm if you want to sleep. (Who the hell has 3 meals before 3pm??!:rotfl:)

    Check, but usually with meals can also mean 'with a glass of milk''. Bronchitis is horrid, specially now the weather is turning. . Take care. Time to crank the heat up its me.

    Oh no! Time for spending days on the couch/in bed all wrapped up with tasty things to eat and drink and plenty to keep you quietly entertained.

    Thanks LIR.
    Yes I'm sure they don't mean 3 full blown meals but we tend to eat a largish breakfast, a main meal about 4pm & a snack around 8pm.
    I think I'm going to have my 3 course breakfast (bready bits, fruity bits & yoghurt) spread through to 3pm for the next week. Going to be rather peckish for the first half of the day & then blown for the second :rotfl:

    :A Much as that sounds tempting it doesn't tend to work out quite like that. Life somehow gets in the way ;)

    Itsme honest. STOP.

    if you don't then the risk is a nasty like a fatigue thing (like a post viral thing ) could get ya, and while I know bronchitis isn't viral its depleting in the same way you need to be stronger long term, rather than just taking say, three weeks off, building up and babying yourself.
