ANOTHER FRIDAY

Started by: mollie m (8759) 

My stars they do come round quickly, don’t they? At least once a week, if not more!

I wonder where Tonker is on the planet. Here, theer or someweer else? I can’t keep up with him.

Tom’s been off on one of his cycling jaunts with his pals today, so hope he’ll have a tale to tell tonight.

Peter, did you manage to get that pear tree stump out of the ground yet?

Anyone done anything this week? Anything at all.

The only exciting thing I’ve done this week is send away a Jehova’s Witness with a flea in his ear for pestering an atheist. He said he’d pray for redemption for me. LOL!

Mollie yeah, I done a ride today and, I was't at 'match fitness' So I struggled a bit and, on getting Wom, I needed a kip ,tout sweet, So I just crashed on the couch and hopefully will feel better tomoz,
meanwhile I've poured a brace of Arthurs down my neck to hopefully get some lower bowel movements going to clear out the lingering germs that are affecting my body to move as well as it did,
How was your day ?

There y'are. I thought I was going to spend the evening talking to meself - nowt new there!

Aye, there's nowt like a good clearing out so I hope the "brace" (whatever that is) does the job. What have you had to eat today?

My day was pretty good. My colleague has been working on a big job we're contracting for so the flow from the other work I normally get from him has been very slow, but I had three tenders to prep up so it kept me out of mischief for a change.

Mollie, a ' brace of pheasants' is a game keepers term for a good meal for a game shooter to take home and from that, us drinkers use that term as a
' Brace of Arthurs' as 2 pints of Guinness' Arthur Guinness being the inventor of Guinness
anyroadup, Its good to know you're still a active and dependable member of staff in the office,

Oh I knew what a brace of pheasants were, but I didn't know what Arthur's were.

You're obviously still not A1 if you pooped out on the couch after your ride home. How far did you get today?

Peter. well done. That wasn't an easy job for a man of your age. I'd be surprised if you didn't have a few aches and pains in your muscles after that, so glad you had the sense to rest up for a day.

Mollie I hope Tom did not poo(p) on the couch after drinking his Guinness I try to take my time with any jobs now a days had bad knees since my pit days but only had problems with my back for a couple of years-Sciatica and get striking pains in my lower back which stop me doing anything.I used to like a good soak in the bath but when we moved I had the bath took out and a shower cubicle installed for Yvonne.She could not by this time lift her legs over the side of the bath to sit on a board to have a shower or get into a bath

Mon - Fri...painting Lads house inside top to bottom and glossing...and touching up the rendering at the front where people like to pause near a school and rest their dirty shoes on the wall.
