Same here Nonna a comfortable bed is essential for me as well, I would never dream of staying over night in a motor home, touring maybe but in a car and hotels at night, around the Med is favourite though.

Yesterday my son and his wife decided to take their new motor home for a run and the wife and myself were to go with them, in we climbed on, accompanied with their baby donkey, sorry dog, its a big 6 berth van. Off we set it was 10.30 to Scarborough 15 minutes up the M1 it is changed to Cleethorpes, now I can remember the name from my childhood I think we went on train, but that is about it. No fun seat belted in the back but other wise an uneventful journey on arrival where do you park such a large van but we were lucky we parked on the sea front and straight onto the beach. Loo

That is the benefit from being raised in Bestwood we all look and feel as if we are only 35 or it could be said we have never grown up.

My wife is the same if she doesnt like something it is never on the shopping list . So when I take her shopping I put items in the trolley, on arriving home they go in the cupboard not to be used until I take them out and ask for them to be used.

Well Brew you are the winner I thought I was the best at using the NHS sevices but it seems you surpass me , do me a favour and behave yourself. We need your contributions on Nottstalgia so please be careful and look after yourself.

You are lucky Beekay, I just dont have the time to let you know the sorrow of my existence, my hobbies housework and ironing.

My son was promoted and transferred to Birmingham, he was pleased but the only downside to the move was that his 2 toddlers would grow up with that accent.

Plantfit I have only received one letter so far, the wife usually receives hers a week or so later.

Its finally arrived, they never forgot about me, £250, someone who lives with me has told me what she will be spending it on. Ah well easy come easy goes, it looks like I will be joining you Beekay selling matches and shoe laces.

Why outside Specsavers Beekay? are you hinting that only people with poor eye sight would take pity on me.

Beekay I have not received mine yet, it looks like I will be joining you selling bootlaces and matches, by the way where is Lewes and are there any good hostels and shop doorways for me to sleep in.

I am the same age as Schwarzenegger, so many thanks Cliff Ton for the complement, I am fairly young member of Nottstalgia. A few weeks ago I really felt my age, they say you are getting old when policemen look young, but I saw a Hospital Consultant and he appeared to be a young lad. I told him that and the nurse couldnt stop laughing.

I also have a Omron, I brought it after a series of readings by my GP he suggested it as most peoples readings are higher when taken in a medical environment. I was having to take 2 readings in the morning and another 2 in the evening for one week every month for quite a while , my BP varied that much, after altering the medications many times I have just been told to take the readings for one week each 3 month period. I have never experienced any pain in the arm when taking these tests . I have a friend who had a heart attack 25 years ago and takes blood pressure tabs and also statins

Great news that you are out of hospital DJ , Take things easy dont going doing too much too soon.

Hope you are improving fast and ready to play footie on Southglade fields soon, we will let you play as you have the ball, keep smiling Col.

I have tried all ways but Canon do not have a driver for my printer to enable it to be used by Windows 11 it only goes up to 10, I am still exploring other ways to try and make it work. I am a tight s*d and do not want to buy a new printer.

NEW TECH REVENGE New tech strikes back after the destruction of my old laptop I was told to buy a Samsung 360 laptop with windows 11, all went well until I tried to print a document, after many failed attempts and research Canon donot do a driver for windows 11 for my printer, it is old., New tech your the winner I give up. Just to add to my woes on this Friday the 13th I go into QMC to have a stone removed from my salivary gland , I believe the wife has asked them to sew up half of my mouth. Life can only get better I hope.

Recently there was a topic on faulty tech items in it I said I turned it off removed the plug swore at it, gave it time to consider its future then switch it back on. Well new tech has an evil mind of its own, my laptop decided to have its revenge on me. The battery ran down even being plugged in , after a new charger which made no difference it was taken to the laptop doctor who gave a sickening estimate , seeing the age of mine I had to buy an new one. The new one arrived and a phone call to grandson and he set it up for me, he was right back it up regularly, I never lost anything. Now

Years ago my consultant told me there was an operation to cut the nerve which would stop the pain in my lower back and leg , but there was a possibility that it could damage other nerves in that area which there could be the possibility of me ending in a wheelchair. I decided not to have it and carried on using my walking stick and pain killers, I have over the years cut down on the tablets ,it restricts what I can do but so does age. Waking up in the morning is the most important thing .

We have told all the people who we send cards to that we are not going to send any more.. We will be donating the money to the Air Ambulance in the future.

I solved the problem when I arrived home, I ordered a new one online and a nice man in a van delivered it next day. The old one went to Karcher heaven .

I cannot remember the last time I went shopping in Nottingham I used to take the wife quite often. I enjoyed these trips as I never went into the shops unless I could sit down with a coffee, the rest of the time I stood outside people watching. Anything I want for myself I purchase online. As for Nottingham changing several months ago my Karcher pressure washer failed instead of as before just buying a new one I found there was a repair centre on Daleside Road, so off I set. I knew the area quite well so I thought. I found new major roads, bridges and little areas with major stores in

I received my invitation for my flu and covid jabs today on my return for doctors having the flu jab. Covid jab is already booked for the 13th, I keep hearing of more and more people suffering with covid so its full precautions from now on,

I will not admit to doing the same thing, but after leaving Tescos I hurriedly phoned my son and grandson who worked on my motor for an hour. then after refilling with diesel it worked again ok. I mean how could anyone do that.

Mary I left long before I was old enough to drink, I can only names of a few places from that era.
