    Of course it is sir, far too easy for a man of your knowledge :default_biggrin:

    Sure is Mrs Nog, beaten by the better half though I am afraid :default_biggrin:

    Sorry to hear you are in Huddersfield Mrs Nog. And it gets even worse you have had an operation. I hope it was nothing serious, and you recover well.

    Need an attentive male to nurse you for anything? 

    Not major surgery,  JF.  I had a 'young person's' cataract removed and now have 20/20 vision in my left eye. Back at work tomorrow, but thought that we would make a day of it. Hoppy beers a go-go, for Mr N......but if you feel like offering your assistance to a poor distressed female, for God's sake keep it to yourself.  If Grace finds out, we're both dead......xx

    Can I add my two penneth here as well? We have heard some strange stories from boatyard owners about people (not dogs or any other pets) leaving the boat's in an absolutely TERRIBLE state, so much so that the boat had to be "deep cleaned".... It's not the fault of the pet, not all of the time! Xx

    A bit like Mablethorpe.... I've been there twice, and there are amusement arcades that that take old pennies. Not sure what you would call the machines tho? They're the ones that have metal balls that roll round? 

    The next time I went there was a Morris Dancing Festival

    Can I put my take on things? I'm very new to this forum thing, having never been on one...not even a Shoe or a Nail Polish one...in my life. However, I've listened to NN and now joined,  so I'm a virtual newbie and have found that this, if someone asked me, is a really good place to start...and be...just for the experience

    Just my thoughts...Dxx

    Or the necessity to constantly shop for things they don't need

    Let me and Grace take you on a shopping trip, JF, you'd love it. Just think how many shoe shops there are, how many department stores, clothes shops? And that's just for starters!

    What Song You 'wish' Was No.1 When You Were Born

    My mum came from a fairly big family.  She was the eldest of nine siblings and was the first to get married.  She wanted to carry on working, so up to school age my nana looked after me, so I had what I thought at the time were big brothers and sisters. It was great! My nana introduced me to George Formby, Old Mother Riley and my absolute favourites, Fred and Ginger and the music of Cole Porter, Irving Berlin and George Gershwin. IMHO, you cannot top some of the songs those guys wrote and even now, listening to them on the radio it takes me back to that time....

    I suffered from Anorexia when I reached my mid teens, in the 70s. It was horrible, thinking back on it, as for some stupid reason looking in the mirror always made me feel overweight, at 7 stone, 5 foot 8 tall. It stayed with me through the 80s and some of the 90s, until my parents looked after me during the day whilst I was recovering from a really bad road accident (I was knocked down by a van while crossing the road). The weight started to pile on as my mum and dad had such "healthy" diets that I was being fed full English breakfasts and all sorts of other stuff (she also worked in a Chinese Takeaway and learned from them how to cook all their "English" Chinese meals). I gained at least 3 stone, then met Mr N and over time gained quite a few more. It was nearly at the point where I was wearing a tent to go to work.

    Then, as you guys all know, I broke my ankle (Feb 2016) and had 3 months off work, with Mr N booling me round in a wheelchair as well as helping with exercise (the yellow, green, blue and red bands from physiotherapy) and lost 2 stone. 

    When I eventually went back to work, no-one recognised me.

    My problem was, being office based, snacking! Crisps, biscuits, chocolate..all very nice, but not healthy. 

    Now,  we walk or get the bus and walk. I'm now just over 12 stone, but happy with my body (and so is Mr N)

    I've looked at that too, Lord G, and it's enabled. Howard has told me to stop moaning and use something else.

    I will definitely get to the bottom of this tho, a bit like a Terrier with a rag - I won't let this go...
