We got all our Sharks in Government buildings Gummy, they only appear when they're looking for votes, and they actually come right up to your door.
Thank you Sweetie for the dancer and your kind wishes, you are very thoughtful.
We all had a terrific day yesterday, some great dancers there, one old lady was in her 80’s and she horn-piped like a 20 year old, a great sense of humour she had as well, she told us a few jokes you wouldn’t hear in an army barracks, God bless her. Some great singers too, one 15 year old girl in particular, she sang "The Mountains of Mourne" like an angel, as Samuel Goldwyn once said "Can she sing! she's practically a Florence Nightingale"
I think I had one over the eight and I’m paying for it today, getting too old for this kind of thing now, but then I think of my dear old dad who was 94 when he died, he always said you’re never too old for a pint of Guinness me oul son.

I did try earlier and the site crashed so I lost the lot.
Yes I know, maybe I am losing the plot.

Hello Dave H, I hope you are well.It really is a miserable day here today, grey skies, bitter cold winds, dangerous icy roads, and the missus snoring away on the sofa having her afternoon nap.
Norman Wisdom was on the TV in a film singing a song I never heard before and never want to hear again, I like Norman but when he sings he seems to have had an elocution booster injection, for an ordinary fella every single word is perfect, I believe he wrote all his own songs too, but a few lines in this one went
“If you say you’ll be mine
I’ll take in the sign
And pull down the blind”
It sort of begs the question of what he was showing in the window doesn’t it?
Don’t mind me I’m just bored stiff.
Have you noticed on these Isles over the past ten years that Spring is later and later arriving? At the other end of the calendar the Winters are not as bad as they used to be, maybe in a few years they will have to adjust the arrival times of the seasons accordingly or folks will be saying “That was a really harsh Spring we had, can’t wait till next Winter” We'll be all mixed up, wonder how the poor plants feel, the climate is not changing, just the man made dates of the seasons arrival times.
Spitty hasn’t been around for a while, I suspect he’s laid up with that flu thing he was on about, get well soon old bean and I hope everything is alright at Spittingtdale Manor.
If a group of soldiers are called a Platoon, are a group of Spitfire pilots called a Spittoon? Just askin'
