    Evening All Just spend the day with DD in her neck of the woods! Went to 2 different shopping centres and my feet ache now. Everywhere was packed ended up getting our free coffees from Waities and sat outside with a sandwich instead of a nice sit down lunch somewhere.

    Still we were lured to W's for a reason. John West No drain tuna £5 each or 2 for £6 plus they are on "my picks" works out at 6 tins for £4.

    Hope you are managing to lurk Northerngeezer as want to say:hello :and wish you well.

    Bubbs poor you when DS had problems with his shoulder the hospital physio gave him accupuncture as well as physio it certainly helped. He was in so much pain that he said he would try anything - he poo pooed it at first but he soon changed his mind when it started to make a difference. :D

    Off to bed now Nite Nite x

    M list - I think it's now done (somehow, if I just do one item, then another one, then another one, eventually it gets done) apart from perhaps literally a handful of items that I might be bothered to look at later and except for the food storers that I still need to go through (I don't think anything will be going onto the list there as the new ones are higher prices).

    I'll sort out the formatting later tomorrow (currently lines of spaces between some of the items as they've been added) but, for now, that's it, you're up-to-date!

    Well that'll start savvy off now:o



    :rotfl::rotfl:

    It already did (...have you not caught up?:D). I won't be adding more replies to it as issues of broadcasting consents etc. (I don't think we could necessarily tell even if we kept watching as we wouldn't know whether the situations were being dealt with consistently or not) are so complicated I could literally write a whole book on the topic!

    I do not know whether it is an issue of consent - but, even if consents are given or withheld, they aren't necessarily always followed - there can be miscommunication - and, whilst this case wasn't an issue over the identification of the woman in question, even if you pixellate people sometimes that doesn't protect the broadcaster from later upheld complaint! (People can be identified by voices etc.) I would have thought broadcasters would impose terms on participants rather than participants having control over the broadcaster and I don't know whether anyone would even have thought about issues of their being potentially nude arising. Solution, it seems to me, is not to strip off in the first place! (But that's a bit tongue-in-cheek from me as I know in private bedrooms in BB settings, people are bound to have to undress in those places at some point or other.)

    I know I don't watch BB much. It seems to be becoming so racy however, that maybe I ought to:D:rotfl::rotfl::eek::rotfl:.

    I like a bit of nudity, sex, swearing, drug use (is there any of that?:think:), non-real life violence - preferably all five of them at once! - on my TV please.:D

    Yorkshire is the most wonderful place in the world... all Yorkshire folk are very proud and welcoming x

    "Yorkshire folk have many of the qualities of the landscape in which they dwell. They are often harsh, gnarled, prickly; tenacious of their rights and only roughly picturesque. But they have many characteristics that are admirable and distinctly English: they have a dogged perseverance, great strength of will, sound judgement, ready wit. And above all they have a heart that is very tender."

    Are you complaining that the ladies bits were pixelated, or that the mens bits were not?

    My naughty bits are permanently pixelated:(:o:)
    That usually solves any argument (unless you like join-the-dots:T)
