Random Irritations

Mrs Colch. Laying on the sofa, curled up and complaining of a splitting headache. Yet when I ask her if she's taken anything for it she says no. Despite the fact we've got prescription pain killers in the house that her doctor gave her for when she gets migraines. Stupid woman (<---- that's not me being sexist, her taste in men proves that to be true).
 
What make of bike ?

What is this 'bike' you speak of?

Car tyre (again) collected more punctures in the last couple of years than I have over the last couple of decades


p.s my bike is propped up against the wall gathering rust & other then a few early forays it has been there since I bought it about 4 years ago :oops:
 
A bit more than a minor, random irritation.

Daughter #2 getting blurred vision a couple of weeks ago. After a couple of days she saw the optician, who brought in his colleague, who then brought in a 3rd optician. Operation today at 9:30am on a tear at the back of the eye. Its a condition that, although relatively rare, is usually found in those over 60, not 32.

The operation and repair is obviously a concern but the Consultant is troubled by what has caused it in someone so young.

A poor attempt at humour by me 😣
 
Re-heating a bowl of apple crumble and covering it in double thick cream, only to realise, when I've just taken an eagerly anticipated mouthful, that it's morphed into apple flavoured lava crumble.
Jeeeez, it was hot!!
Crumble and lasagne are both served at nuclear temperatures, it's the law. Burning your mouth on both of those goes with the territory. The alternative is to have these lovely foods in front of you for 5-10 minutes, watching not touching, whilst they cool down. Never going to happen 😁
 
The Daily Telegraph web site has had a revamp. It looks terrible. How am I going to get my daily fix of right wing drivel when the format is done by a 4 year old.
 
Loft extension got a start date (well week) last week of sept , was suppose to be this month but delays happen

Only a slight irritation though not a massive one. Just never been good at waiting
 
Fake news. UK media trying to paint a picture that the supporters of my team (AIK) tried to storm the family section at Celtic yesterday. Absolute rubbish.
 
ARRRRRRGGHHHH!!!!!!

Woke up this morning with the worst back pain I've had for years. The pain is in the lower back on the righthand side and extends to around the right hip. I can put my finger right on the facet joint that creating the problem, press in and the pain stops. The pain is that bad I feel sick.

Currently laid flat out on a quilt on the floor waiting for the next lot of painkillers to kick in... golf? No chance!

Can relate.
Have you tried getting someone to stretch your hamstrings for you i.e. you lay flat, they raise the leg then lean strongly into the back of your leg with their shoulder whilst you keep your other leg flat, then switch over, might work, that's what the chiros do for backs............else plonk and pills and wake up cured tomorrow.;) Good luck.

Not got anyone here I'd trust to do that, although I am doing the exercises the physio gave me a wee while back.

Flat on my back with knees raised and feet flat on the ground, keeping my shoulders on the ground I can move my knees to the right till they almost reach the ground. Moving to the left they move about an inch from the vertical.
 
Sellers in China on Ebay pretending they're from Leeds. Why can Ebay not sort that false location registering out? Makes filtering down to what you actually want to assess to buy very tedious.
 
Yep, that's what we do. Surprisingly very nice, mainly due to the heat.

However, all sorted now, another 12 bottles of red are snuggled up with the 15 bottles of white.
Don't panic, there is plenty of room for the beer.

Ditto, 2 fridges, one specifically for wine and beer. Just picked 24 cans of Amstel Gold from Iceland for €6.50

My favourite red Spanish wine is Marquis de Casceras, [ excuse the spelling ], goes nicely with a Don Julian No1 cigar.
 
People. Not all of them but probably most of them...

Lovely to get home to a couple of delirious pups...I may become a stay-at-home crazy dog lady!
