As the that old song says "From Hull, and Halifax and Hell, may the Lord deliver me." I've lived in two of the three, - I wonder where I'm going next.:reddevil:

That would be fine if the mother's a vegan!

That didn't quite occur to me. It's funny, in the states, they use road kill as fertilizer; I wonder how many vegans are getting a bit of extra protein in their spinach from 2 week old deer....

We do have an old Uncle and an old Auntie to sort. (The old Auntie is 89, but claims she is 82 for reasons we cannot fathom. (We know because her DOB is on the medication we pick up for her). With the old Uncle it's just a case of going to the hospital with him every now and then. The Old Auntie requires taking shopping, appointments, prescriptions, odd jobs, bins etc etc. So we would but...:frown2:

You're right, I sometimes wonder how I used to get a whole house cleaned in one day; oddly enough, in those days, we had no vhs, dvds or computers.
Well, I think I would be a much better adopted relative, I remember my age and would sit in the corner at dinner and tell dirty jokes:reddevil:

My Illinois assignment is finished !!!
The project manager sent me home with a bottle of Wild Turkey 101.
After two days driving, I am back in the saddle getting re acquainted with my dog.
Oh yeah; and my wife, son and cat too.

Gg

Well, those girls look like they could make a fair breakfast; but I think I'd go elsewhere for cuddling.

I love hotels; particularly when the angels come down when I'm out and make my bed and vacuum my floor...well, now that I've realized I don't have to do it for them

On investigation I discovered his Pedigree Chum had been replaced by the particularly cheap, Mongrels Delight. The next shock came when my Mr Kipling cakes were substituted by Jammy Dodgers. The last straw was when I went to my hidey hole, which no one knows about, to have a dram, only to discover my Glenmorangie was gone and in its place a cheap and nasty blend. Well a man can just take so much and I went to confront her only to find her heading for the front door. Where are you going I enquired ? " Och Jocky I am going to the bingo. As a result of my thrift I can now go seven nights a week instead of five. " That woman is going to be the death of me. :(

I'm crying for your plight over here, poor Jocky. I'd come over to comfort you; but my tears seems to have put an ocean between us:bawling::bawling::bawling:

Aye, but just make sure you don't leave your credit card in it.

If you really cared a small obstacle like the Atlantic Ocean should be no barrier. " Frailty, thy name be woman." :)

Try as we might, we vegetarians can't succeed. There are measures set by the food regulators in each country as to how many insect parts are permissible in rice etc. Perhaps we get plenty of protein that way. :lol:

I can slip from the TV to a DVD to the computer in three easy movements. There's just so much to do these days.

I also like hotels - for the same reasons - and I have lived in a few when we were travelling. Superb. It's finally nice to go home and cook in your own time though.

No worries with me. If it isn't over its limit, the available balance will be about $2-98.

It's part of an ongoing thesis of mine: Avoiding Credit Card Fraud; keep your card at its limit!

I don't know, I've begun to notice that since men have been trying to become sensitive for their women folk; they have also increased the irrational behavior.

Maybe jocky should get some sheep too; or an old jalopy. My dad spent hours tuning up his old cars. I remeber when he ruined 2 tires on the new family car driving through junk yards to find a piece on his old 51 ford.

You're right Jocky, how could I be so cold when my friend is in need...I'll steal an airboat and be right over.

I'm not terribly fond of meat; but I try to do my part to keep the food chain balanced...:willy_nilly:
