  1. Aah benj, sorry but you made me laugh again. Thankfully it was the remote that woke you? Your words keep making me smile.( I hope that was your intention)? You reminded me of an incident that happened to me a couple of nights ago, similar, but different? I also woke about 4am for my usual stroll to the powder room. I had a a sensation on a part of my anatomy that felt odd and abit scarey. Any way after further investigation, I realised my skin wasn't falling off but the plastic bag that I keep my earphones in was firmly stuck to my right Buttock. Phew, thankfully the ea

  3. A few months ago I was walking in West Bridgford when a man approached and said “Did you used to live in Clifton ?’ I didn’t recognise him at all - seemed to be a complete stranger. He explained that in the 1960s his father ran a greengrocers shop on Clifton near where we lived, and sometimes he helped (as a boy) in his father’s shop. He would’ve occasionally seen me in the shop when I was young enough to be dragged along by my mother, but that hasn’t happened for quite a long time. After a bit of mental arithmetic, I concluded he hadn’t seen me for at least 50 years (and even b

  4. Maybe it's a retail thing . You got used to seeing people . We have been retired for nearly 9 years and yet when I drive through our town , I can recognise people from behind , maybe just the way they walk ! .....won't know their name but just know who they are . Conversely , a lot of our old regulars now don't recognise us , as we are out of the familiar surrounding that they were used to seeing us in i.e. the shop . Others do though and just the other day we were having a coffee in a newish pub and a lovely girl , well lady , well now actually a grandmother , recogni

  9. Pleased all is well with you Ian. I haven’t looked through the threads you’re referring to but your advice on getting checked is vital for all men. My husband had PC a few years ago and chose the hormone treatment and radiotherapy route, as did other Nottstalgians. All good still, it must be 6 or 7 years ago since he suffered all that and he’s absolutely fine. As for Chulla ..... a lovely lovely very clever man who is sadly missed on this site. He was a great friend to many.
