Awake and up all night

Ours was whitewashed at the bottom of the yard. I didn't like the spiders and I learnt to hold on on the coldest nights.

Morning Uki  

Yes, we had an outside loo and no indoor bathroom up until I was 7   xx

A tin bath every Friday and a china po' under the bed. I bloody loved it all, not to mention no CH - bliss xxx

Good morning Gunner, and a very warm welcome from me, too.

A cracking post from yourself and a smashing reply from Uki, so hop on board to the madhouse where, as you've already discovered, night owls lurk to while away the twilight hours. There's also a load of traffic during the day with plenty of fun for one and all!

Well I'll start by saying I'm really sorry to hear of your diagnosis and can only wish you the very best for your upcoming treatment, but I guess you're going to hear a lot of that from others and reading between your lines I reckon you'll prefer some of the other - the humour we like to inject into a crap situation and survive another day.

Playing top trumps here, you've surpassed my OH in terms of pinnacles - he got a stage 4 and T4a, but I'm awarding you a solid 10 for personality alone. Those doctors of yours will be thanking their lucky stars when they cop a load of that as you're going to make their job a whole lot easier.

I think Brian, our community champion and all-round good guy and in-house comedian, will guide you towards the prostate group too, but stay with us as well and join in the fun.

Sending you hugs by express delivery xxx

Morning all 

Roving reporter here again. We're off to a very posh campsite called Concierge Camping near Chichester for a friend's 80th birthday do tomorrow.

We had an outside loo when I was at home, we did have an inside one too though. 

Welcome Gunner66 best wishes for your treatment. You've found a nice group here and we chat about all kindsa things.

You lot were very busy chatting overnight, it's taken ages to catch up!

Morning Helen  

Aye, some busy typing going on but I still didn't sleep for ages after, and wished Gunner would have posted as I was still awake at 3pm. Lunacy.

When I read your post and saw Concierge, my mind raced ahead and I thought you were going to announce you were off to France! Whoa, Chichester. Phew.

Enjoy and power up the MH! Hugs for you and Alan xxx

I think you ought to start enjoying yourself a bit more.

Ey, those were the days. A trip to the movies, a 5 course dinner and an oliday in Skegness. All for under a farthing.

 we were still using pebbles back then, Ukes.

I snorted out loud at your post to Helen - as they used to say, you are a one. A one-off more like!

Enjoy today hon and lap up that sea. Not literally as it tastes foul xxx

I'm not going back to those toilets.
