I can't remember whether I have forgotten how to multi-quote or if I never knew!
So now you've forgotton if you've forgotton. Forget-ception!Z you are not old and stupid - you are however always readily available with witty quote.
Err...umm...Error: 6754897698 - Witty Quote Underflow...However I did fall through a door when I was about 10 - that wasn't safety glass.
Did you do it a second time? Noooo...That was the good ole 1970's - what an era. I was falling through doors, John Noakes was climbing up Nelson's Collumn armed only with a ladder leaning the wrong way! :eek:
Wusses...
And I remember Fred Dibnah, with his safety flat cap to protect his head, and his protective Woodbine to keep dust out of his lungs.Have had had words with the lodger.
She is not happy.
Hey ho.
Life is too short to put up with this crap.
She is a guest. She seems to have fallen into the role of "Spoilt brat and Mother". As you say, life is too short for that.Sun_Addict wrote: »Butti I remember one of my mum's foster children doing a backward roll straight through our glass door in the 1970s. Oh the days before health and safety

Most dry here but very windy
Agree about Waitrose although I've had some really good stuff from the reduced shelf :money:0 -
And if you join myWaitrose, you'll find that they have revolving lists of what's available at a 20% discount, which can make the odd item the cheapest around. Not worth doing it for things that have ranges (like Alpro) but if you see their Essentials range, thats clear enough. I got 500g of marmite for not-very-much :rotfl:2023: the year I get to buy a car0
