For those with a warped sense of humour WARNING- no punches pulled here

Good afternoon all,

Just a quickie before I pock up my grandson from school.  His mum is away for a few days so he's staying at ours for a little holiday.  I forgot how time consuming having a little one at school is, phew i'm bloody knackered especially as inbetween I have about three phone calls from mum, with dad problems.

Tried to catch up on blogs but they won't load up on my page and I can only access things from the community page, so lucky LM had just popped in, thanks. 

Well Hils, i'll be joining you at hossie tomorrow.  Mines for my two year CT Scan, so fingers crossed would be aprreciated everyone :)  Better remember to hurry home this time as the loo is needed.  If you remember my tale of taking my daughter to breakfast the first time and exploded literlally in the cafe, oops.

Hope your hips behaving Les, and LM's and Hils poos are being good between them haha

Take care all

Well all that fuss about finding warped when I found it in WH Smiths. I could not resist the October copy of Scientific American when it had "warped" in large letters on the front cover. I think I know how to insert pictures so perhaps I can share it later.

Firstly nannyb, I'm glad you are better after your rant, the room seems quite a good place to frequent. Pity it hasn't got a door to close when you leave. I wonder what happened to it.

Now Hils, ooggling LM is Ok, but to give others the idea is not on! Some of us on this site could be very embarrassed if our identity got out beyond the confines of our little group. But I forgive you and I'm not sending you a naughty bed. (Having one dead hero complaining about having to sleep on the floor is bad enough; two I would have to book myself a faraway holiday.) The reason I forgive you is that you have come to your senses and abandoned the idea of travelling to hospital by public service omnibus (or as it is officially known in transport circles "public service passenger transport device", (I think they have in mind that one day they might have a "beam me up Scottie" apparatus.)

LM, I'm glad your extra strong whalebone reinforced invincibles have arrived. If ever I get a sweaty arse playing bowls I shall be in touch. It is now 14.40 and I hope that at last you have finished your talk for the parents tonight, because if not you will be finishing it on the naughty bed and I might even insist you take the naughty bed to school and deliver your talk from it.

WOW! A trip to Sweden and a chance to be eaten by a lynx, a bear or a wolf, or if you're lucky all three. What parent could resist that! Wish I could come, but they don't make school uniform in my size any more.

Best wishes for the talk LM, and I hope you have a successful trip and bring most of the kids back.

Good luck with the transfusion Hilary

And best welsh cwtches to everyone, including Ems in her boudoir,

First of all.....Good luck to Jan, as Macland is not behaving tonight and I'm having terrible trouble doing anything.

The above link is to a song by Nerina Pallot from her album "Year of the Wolf" I've put a couple of lines as my status. Really wanted to see if i could put a link for her track " I Think" but even You tube haven't got it...might be something to do with the chorus:

So don't bag on me. Don't give me your shit, don't give me your shit

We've all got problems. We're living with it, we're living with it.

Just keeping going-man, that is a trick, that is a trick

And i think, I think, I think too much!

PLEASE, I popped into The Room, made one comment and said to email updates thinking it would be on the thread I'd commented on, and now my inbox is going CRAZEEEEEEEE. I can stop updates, but everytime someone starts a new thread I get all the updates for those, and its taking all my time just finding the updates for Warped and blogs that I really want to keep up with! Over 40 emails today.......and I'm away for a couple of days so........ Any ideas? Odin obviously in the same pickle as me.......

Quickest way to get on Warped is go to My Account, then My activity, and you can click on the last time you went on Warped, or someone's blog.

We now have 20 followers.....and are coming up to posting 1000. Oh! Forgot to congratulate Tim on the crap he caught.......oops! another dyslexic moment with the keyboard :-)

LM do those invincibles hold in those bits that should not be there? It was the Fat Club today and I'd put on half a pound....SHIT! Got to see the health trainer in 4 weeks and have to have lost another 3 and half pounds.

Good luck to all that need it, and this week's exercise is lolling.........

A very very quick quickie 'cos my appt is at 3.15pm so going out in a min.  Just wanted to see if any fingers were crossed.  Thankyou so much Louise, it somehow feels good to have support here.  No matter how much I try to convince myself it's a routine scan, the butterflies start.  Also worried about dad at min.  Rang his specialist nurse this morning and she has referred him to a macmillan nurse now.  So hoping that will be a positive step.  He's getting more and more depressed in front of my eyes and theres nothing I can do.  Sorry for the moaning when it is supporsed to be warped.

Oh and Louise, I have the same problem with The Door.  I too commented on one thread and now have endless emails to clear and no matter what I do there are more every day aaaargh.  Help you lot, what can we do??

Call in later for a catch up.  Hope everyones ok.  Hope Hils tranfsusion has gone smoothly and LM pants are behaving.

Take care

Hi all, Hilary has told me to download google chrome, hope I dont have to polish it every day, so this box may have something in it....Testing 123, lift off in LM balloon, as we are going down the Lewis route, think the mad gardener could be our motto as we prune the roses ...will it be there or will it not <3

OK......what have you done with it......I posted this morning and its flipping well gone!!!!!!!!!!!!

ODIN.....ODIN.....did you lock me out!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Does anyone else think this macland site is playing up.  I can't get on blogs unless it's off the community page and everything is slllowwww again.  And i've another load of emails from The Door which I keep trying to say no to.   AAArgh, I don't mind pooping in there to (that's funny i've just typed poop instead of pop haha gonna leave that).  Anyway popping in to comment when I want but the stream of emails is maddening.

Anyway, CT Scan done and out of the way.  Silver linings again, my bag is coming in useful, 'cos as i'm typing to you lot it is filling up nicely with goo (just thoughtl you might wangt to know that), and I don't have to spend the time running to the loo.

LM, I didn't hoover today, AGAIN, but you'll be glad to know I did shower.  The stair guard is keeping Ripley from upstairs so it's working a treat.  No more dog hair stairs and no more ripped sheets andl hairy beds, hyurray.  She looks at it in disgust though and runs away.  I think she's scared of it.

Are you back safe and sound Hils, hope it went ok.  Can you teach me how to put links from google andl hyou tube onto here please, I can't do it and thin k it's very clever.

Take care all,

Love Jan xxx

Jan.....I thought it was my laptop being slow and difficult, maybe not then.....we bought a carpet that was hairy, dont notice if I miss hoovering for a day :) glad your scan went ok...goo too, did make me chuckle x

Louise.......dont be too upset about the wieght, your doing really well x

damn...who else!!

Hils ...hope you got there ok and are now back home safe and sound x

nope.... its gone...cant remember

(((((((((((((((XX))))))))))))))))

Thanks all those who said about my fishing, it was nice to have a carp day, rather than a crap day, oh you funny lot!!!!

Think Jan and Auntie are having IT problems, or is it just an age thing, snigger!

Was that a second hand carpet you bought Auntie, I assume that it must have been if it was hairy, blond or brunette? When I moved into my current abode I removed a huge ball of blonde hair that was covering the carpets. Jan would have loved it as I was hoovering for bloody hours!

LM thanks for the offer of the spare pants but  I'll pass if you don't mind, though they may come in handy for holding in a beer belly. ( I Lie I am an athelete).

Louise, how did you manage to put on weight, was it cakes again? It seems to me the best way to lose weight is go dancing, all those celebs on Strictly lose shed loads. Ooops, I've just admitted to watching da, da, da, daaa, da, da, daaaa.....

Let's hope Hils is doing OK, and getting the boost that new blood gives you.

I'm not going to upset Odin, us blokes have got to stick together!

Evening all,

What is it with you lot and Thursdays? Are the pubs shut or the hoover god demands a day of rest or something???? I have to go to school on a Thursday and stay for a meeting and by the time I get home I am almost spoonless and so so much to catch up on and I have no idea what anyone said at all now... but here goes.

jan, hope the scan was ok.. You can relax now cos its done so you can't do anything more now to change it. When do you get the results? And glad to hear you didn't hoover. Next step is don't shower. I will make a slob of you yet, I will!!!

Stinker, oh bugger its gone already. Damn. You said something and I had something to say back to you...

Hiyah mumsy and Tim. Tim are you telling me you don't get a sweaty arse? and that's all they are good for I can tell you cos I wore them today and spent most of the day lying down. I have been sneaking a few heavier bags etc around thinking its ok and of course it isn't. It did make me laugh today though cos at the end of the day, I only got as far as the top of the stairs outside the staffroom and was talking to my colleague about something we had to write. I ended up lying down on the chairs that people use to wait to see the head or whoever and she sat on one next to me and wrote notes of what we were saying while I surrepticioulsy pushed my sausages back in... it was the end of the day so everyone was coming up the stairs to go to the staffroom and we looked like a psychiatrist and their couch. How many comments did I get of have you sorted her out yet?? I also got some headltilts of are you ok? We then started guessing whether the next person would be a joker or a tilter... I got 100% ha ha! I can spot a tilter a mile off ...

Oh I remembered. Jan and Stinker. Go to an email you get from the Room. At the bottom of the email is a thing that says stop emailing me about this subject. Click on that link and it mutes the discussion which means you won't get emails anymore. It only works for that thread so you have to click on all the ones you don't want, or you go to the room and click on a discussion. To the right of it is a box and it says stop emailing me updates about this or something to that effect. Click on that and you won't get any.

Simple.  Speaking of which, how are you Tim? Hahahhaaaaaaa sorry. couldn't resist it.

Hilary Nosferatu, how was the transfusion? Cool?

Odin, found your boots yet?

Ok, sausages are out again... gotta go and lie down and poke, or someone send me the hungry dog... was it crutons? I'd happily give em away tonight cos I've had enough of them. Sorry if I didn't get to you....

Off for birthday morning coffee/lunch tomorrow with the friend who invented the term GC. Fun shall be had.
