Awake and up all night

I spoke too soon about my powers and it just blobbed again.

Back in now.

Well we went in the bookies and used one of those machines - OH brought up the runners and the first name I saw, which I've forgotten now but it started with V, leaped out and I asked him to put it on for a tenner. Then he pressed the wrong button and I could tell he was getting disgruntled with the machine. I was getting disgruntled with him and marched out in high dudgeon.

He'd backed another nag and later, when watching the race, V romped home with 7.5 lengths ahead of the chasing pack.

I sat in stunned silence for a few seconds, then quickly sulked before going through the 'I told you' routine. I was back to normal a couple of hours later as Leeds beat Forest and he'd backed us.

Mind, OH's bet raised just under 15 quid instead of the £100 mine would have.  

Oooh so what's the most you've taken the bookies for?

My picks aren't based on form and the going and stuff but on ... well stuff to do with their names 

Cheers

With the horses I go by names too, OH on form, but I suppose we've broken about even as we don't put too much on.

We've been more unlucky with football, missing out on thousands by just one team screwing it up. The most OH's won was just over £500 but that was about 20 years ago.

We're unlikely to get the new pad I'm craving any time soon with those performances xxx

Helllllo ... your bathroom aids post has only just appeared!! Flipping s!

Ooh I like solutions to stuff, especially simple ones that make you go 'Of course!' or 'Why didn't I think of that!'

I love natty storage solutions so love ideas on house boats and extra small homes, like storage in the steps.

Hey when my ankle and elbow were duff I would have loved some aids.

In the past, fibromyalgia fatigue and pain have made getting back out of the bath very possibly not happening.

Cheers

Blood and sand! Do your posts keep dropping off the page cos that's what's happening here. So, back in the room.

Ooh yes, I'm a gadget fan too but always research first, read reviews etc before committing. The new stuff should be here Tuesday and I'm eager to get them up running.- I'll give you a full report when the time comes, plus details if you're interested in any of them for your achy bits.

Well hon, it's playing silly devils again so the time's ripe to retire.

Night hon, and have a great Sunday. Hugs xxx

So this dream pad. I am assuming it's modern or comes with staff that handle reaching ceilings? ooh  maybe it has  adjustable height ones. Err would that mean the above floor rise and fell or just space in between. Getting silly 

Cheers

Not quite but getting there, re the pad

Night sweetie xxx

Good idea. 5 am followed by 4 am is not recommended and club bingo day has rolled around again. I know! The excitement of my high octane existence is palpable!

Hope you sleep well, nyt

Morning all

Good luck with the new aids Gill H 

Nothing much planned today, will probably go for a walk later.

Morning Helen  

Thanks love, I'm sure the aids will be helpful as it's fraught with difficulty and a bit dangerous with the bathroom situation atm. OH's not a big lump but really heavy when trying to manoeuvre him by myself 

Unsure what the weather's got in store today, but enjoy the potential walk xxx
