    Sorry to hear you're not well CK. I hope whatever the problem is, is being looked into and that you're not putting off seeing the doctor as many men do. I trust Mrs CK won't mind if I send you a virtual (hug).

    Thanks Ivy, I've been feeling fine on/off and not fine on/off, largely dependent on how much sleep I've had.

    I'm feeling a bit rough today (despite about 9 hours sleep), as are others I've spoken to. Knowing there's immense pressure to get a series of paperwork done for a new project isn't helping with that and is probably what's stopped me throwing the towel and going home already.

    Need to click 'send' on an email to my MP that was written on Friday, however that's another story for another thread. It will make me feel a bit better though :D

    I am popping out again to get more food in a minute though :)

    Just remember that paperwork and jobs are pretty useless if you don't have your health. You have got to think about your stress levels. It doesn't matter how much money you have. You cannot pay for your health. Stress related illnesses are not picky they can happen to anyone.

    Looking for slightly strange family members who might be dead. Can I suggest that you look in a cupboard first?

    Been there, done that, not putting my health on the line again :)

    Time-important stuff is being given the priority, and anything else can wait.

    Oh, we have some new space :D

    Sorry for not being around the last few months, life in general has been a bit hectic generally, and as I've just had to say to a client on the phone, 'Sorry, I don't feel well this morning, I'll call you back shortly'. Sadly it's been happening a lot recently :(
    Sorry to hear that, CK. :(

    This could be "your thing" .... there's probably already a universal book holder out there .... adjustable, gravity defying, page turning on a stand... but if there's not, invent it :)
    I think it's called a 'slave'. :rotfl:

    If you have any specifics, the next place to try might be under the patio.
    Still striving to be mortgage free before I get to a point I can't enjoy it.

    Or, if in the East End of London, you may wish to check under the cellar floor.

    Boot of the car?



    Chest freezer?



    Cellar?



    Ice house?
    :D



    Someone else's tomb in one's private crypt.
    :D



    :think: I wonder how long it would take a flock of hens to demolish a body, given their propensity for flesh?

    There are microfilm copies of old newspapers in libraries in Herts. Not indexed though, so you would need to know where and when to ferret. I'll be happy to look for you next time I'm over that way.
    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.
