Awake and up all night

Talking about Nora Batty it made me contemplate.that Yorkshire women of a certain age should not be messed with. I remember in the mid 80s coming over to see my folks in Doncaster. I was walking through the Arrndale centre. From a distance I saw a diminutive old lady beating her way through the goth and emo teenagers. I realised it was my.5 foot nought nanna. She came right up to me, looked at my face and without pause said "Are those your own teeth ?", then scuttled off into the crowds. Comedy genius, but those Last of the Summer Wine ladies were based on actual characters and ring so true.

A great memory Ukes and your nanna would have been right up my street!

We've got more than our fair share of Yorkshire battle axes - there's one in my mirror every day

Well after a promising grey start the sun's come out, so you've probably got the same hon.

Sending you both hugs  xxx

Yes the sun is making an appearance. I've got so many stories about the wonderful battleaxes in my family m

Hello to all you good people on the page hope all is going well as it can be my thoughts are with you all well i found something out in the last couple of weeks which suppressed me a lot as most of you may no i have been a bus driver for 26 years and now i had to retire on ill health which was a very hard to at this time so iv been losing a bit of weight so because of being a bus driver i was having no set meals for 26 years which i did not think about so now i now why my juile said why are we only having 1 meal a day because that's being a bus driver so now i have to have scans to see if there is any damage in my body because the way i eat for so long 

When you've got time between helping your lass get on the property ladder, you'll have to tell us some xxx

Afternoon Steve  

One meal a day isn't sufficient for an adult hon, so no wonder you've been losing weight. Hopefully the scans won't reveal anything sinister and you'll be given advice for a healthy and nutritional diet.

Hoping yourself and your big family are all doing ok, and sending you all the very best for when you have the scans hon.

Hugs and love whizzing over to Pontypool xxx
