loppylugs 8,424 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 I came in late on your fall Col. I'm glad it was no worse. I've had a couple since my stroke. Both times in my garden. I landed squarely on my butt. More embarrassing than painful, though I suspect one may have contributed to the hernia I had. Anyway take care of yourself and I guess we all need to watch it as the years add up. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MargieH 7,594 Posted December 18, 2021 Report Share Posted December 18, 2021 Just been to see Santa in his sleigh going round the village with his elves collecting for the local Scout group. It was beautiful seeing all the excited children jumping up and down and waving as he slowly passed them. There were Christmas songs playing and the whole event made me a bit tearful (as usual) thinking of Christmases past with our own small children following him round the streets in Leicester. Love it! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mary1947 2,071 Posted December 20, 2021 Report Share Posted December 20, 2021 MargieH loved your post about ""Santa"" my mind started working just remembering about my boys when they were small. My eldest son was about 3/4 years old and we had brought him a toy with bells on, Well we filled the boys pillow cases with their Christmas toys, and waited, and waited,and waited till we thought they had gone to sleep. Master and i went very slowly up the stairs not wanting to make a noise, when the bells on the toy jingled, mum, mum my eldest boy shouted, I can hear Santa comming i can hear the bells on his sleigh. You never forget stories like this. MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,268 Posted December 20, 2021 Report Share Posted December 20, 2021 I fished our syndicate water today and caught nowt. Enjoyed being there though. A committee member of the syndicate caught more than he expected. He cast his fly out, put his rod down and attended a call of nature in a nearby bush. He retuned, only to see his rod being towed at high speed out into the 40' deep lake. . three of us using the boats searched for it in vain. That pee cost him £700 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Willow wilson 891 Posted December 21, 2021 Report Share Posted December 21, 2021 Man acquires top end reel; check. Cats run off with fly fishing line; check. Club Committee member scent-marks shrubbery; check. Unknown piscatorial creature nicks expensive tackle; check. There's more to this fishin' thing than you'd think. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Brew 5,378 Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Right time to relax. Prezzies all bought, wrapped (as usual by explosivesRus), and under the tree. Sneaky pick up and shake of mine. Had a sniff and a guess at the weight before being banished to my room. Hurry up Santa! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PeverilPeril 3,268 Posted December 23, 2021 Report Share Posted December 23, 2021 Just returned from a short stay in Stoke cardiology dept. No procedures done this time - just more pills and can't drive for a month. Our trip to Somerset for Christmas with the family postponed for a while. I'm lucky - two of the guys in my ward will still be there on Christmas day. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
