Welcome to Warped.
I wanted to come back in time and explain something as it doesn't make sense otherwise...(though not much of this thread makes sense anyway) I set up this thread as explained below with a lovely dear lady called Sunny Leith. We had a lot of chat on here and the silliness got me and her and lots of others through some hard times. Sunny left the site when there was some criticism of warped and she deleted all her posts when she left. That is why it doesn't make sense to start with as all her posts are missing and it is a bit of a one sided conversation.... Enjoy it all the same...
Hi there,
This is a follow on from the 'dumb things people say' recent thread that is moving here with a health warning!
If you are feeling sensitive please don't read this thread as you may feel offended.... and we need a place to say what we need to say without worrying about offending people so you have been warned!!!!
This is for those of us who cope by being irreverent and silly and able to laugh at all the bad stuff. If you want to get the idea, read the last few pages of dumb things people say, I might see if I can cut and paste a few over to get us going....
In the meantime,
Sunny, you had me laughing my head off this morning with that image of you sitting there in your underwear, chocolate mouth etc!! I think it would have been hilarious if you had answered the door and invited them in.... they certainly would have needed oxygen by the time they got back down the speed they would have run away....!
Magel, how do they find us?? I live up a very steep hill in a very remote area and they made it up the hill to us too..... mind you, they were so out of breath they couldn't speak... almost felt sorry for them!
Can't remember what else we were on about as I can't see the last post anymore but lets continue here with the laughs and anyone new, feel free to join in.
Looking forward to hearing from you

have done a christmas shop till you drop, 3 grand kids with birthdays as well, but have got skirt top and shoes all for me, naughty nanny, oh well amazon here I come, not that I have much money left...Hope all are having a good weekend, bear hugs to you all xx
YAY for shopping. I was too tired to go to bleedin' Tesco. Grr. So much for blood transfusions. Also I meant to get something nice for dinner, while I still have tastebuds, and now it'll have to be soup or cheese on toast or eggs of some description. All perfectly valid food choices, but hardly exciting!
The above isn't very warped, so: POOBAGS!

jan rings drunk, stinker drunk, chrisie bear shopping hils can see Ok notes taken.
Jan, your drunk post made me laugh cos it was that 'I love you' thing that you get from drunk Scots mostly... Sorry you are a bit down about your dad. Have a hug from me.
Rings: you need to be devious. I am devious like you wouldn't believe... (well you have to be to work with teenagers and get what you want)
The really devious thing would be to rope your hubby in on it and get him to say to her that he wants to get you a ring for Christmas as a secret surprise and he needs to know your ring size on her fingers... He gets your rings to put on her fingers till he finds one that fits and takes her out to get you a ring. You then have a ring that fits her finger that you can take with you to get her ring with and hubby then has to get you a ring too... easy! And you get a free ring ha ha!
Stinker, glad to hear you are living it up at the food festival.... but what are fat club going to say? Do you want me to come for you next week... I could don a wig and pretend to be you.... might get slimmer of the week he he.
Chrisie, so lovely to have paddington here posting again. hoorah for sorting out your computer! AND hoorah for spending money on nice things... I might do the same cos of my downsizing I have money in the bank this month ha hhaaaa. I am eyeing up gadgets- new laptop, or i pad or i phone or...? hmmm dunno.
Oh and P heard on the radio today that you have to have 13 hugs a day to be happy so he's working through them (get in!! cos I didn't used to get hugs from him BC) He says we are at 12 I say 6... I will win.
Ok, Hilary, what were you on about up there... ah yes, exciting food. i can make your dinner exciting:
Firstly you put the soup in a pan. Then you juggle eggs over the pan. Crack an egg into a frying pan while sticking a fork in the toaster. If you are not fried, juggle the cats over the frying pan while the egg is cooking. If you are still bored, tip the soup over the toast and put the egg on top. Eat whist tightrope walking across the grand canyon. There. exciting soup and eggs on toast and you didn't even need the cheese. The cheese can be used to tempt cats out of wardrobes etc and intot he kitchen to be juggled with. I, of course cannot juggle cats cos of the sausages...
Oh, oh oh... speaking of which, ems was a bit down and I said I would come and rescue her from crappy dad day and she said yay lets so I did!!!! I drove to her village which actually is only just half an hour away (and don't google distances any of you cos I will get a speeding ticket) and we had coffee. She had cake, I had a sausage roll. And then my sausages popped out to look at the sausage (actually they popped out from me laughing too much at silly photos we were taking) and I had to do a sausage roll in the booth (I love the word boooth) to pop them back in again. I expect ems will blog about it so won't say too much except it was fun and I wish others lived closer too so we could meet up too.
Blimey she can walk fast for a girl on chemo!!
Pissflaps.
Tim, I expect you will be fishing tomorrow, in which case light tines to you.
Odin, have you found your boots yet? did your daughter put them in your washing machine?
have to include the boys eh?
13 hugs to everyone

I thought I would follow Jan's lead and hit the bottle. Though I'm on the refined red wine tonight, no slurring from me though!
I had the envious task of pegging out a fishing match, that meant walking the river for the best part of 3 hours, not sure how far I walked but I was knacked at the end! Tomorrow I fish the match and hope I get some luck.
I had a weird dream last night, I thought I weighed less than a thousandth of a gram. When I woke up I thought omg..... boom boom!
Louise, I thought you might like to know that I am currently 6lbs heavier than I have ever been in my life. I'm not excersizing much, so eating and drinking what I like is putting it on, but I think if I have my op in the new year I may end up shedding some lbs, so I'm saying I'm building myself up!
Sorry you couldn't get to Tesco Hils, hope the transfusion will start to kick in soon and give you some spoons. I'd offer you some of my blood if it were possible, after all "Every little helps!"

LM you are sooooooooo clever suggesting that Jan getting a ring as well as her daughter. I don't know how my SIL managed to get daughter's ring size, but it had to be accurate as she has a wooden one, which she now wears on a chain round her neck as she has pregnancy fingers. He proposed to her in the Italian mountains near where his sister lives.
Wish I could say that post treatment I had put 6lbs on....7k and was rising (and I am only 5' tall so not much space to put it.....and I didn't lose one pound when ill.) I'm exercising (walking at least 5miles a week) Its just lovely to be able to appreciate tasting lovely things again. It will be a headtilt at Fat Club, but I know what i need to do and I'm not stressing about it.
Hope the fishing went ok today Tim. 3 hours pegging out...you obviously drew the short straw.
LM and Ems, that must have been a funfilled afternoon :-)
If you have to have 13 hugs a day for happiness that means that you need to hug P 13 times too.....26 hugs a day....You will have even less time for Macland LM. Hope you don't get nasty kiddie germs, and rest when you need to. Tell the lazy sods to bugger off when they start trying to get you to do their job.
Good to see that Chrisie is now able to join us in the land of Warped :-)
Youngest son rings this afternoon. Always leaves me happy. He was saying that he is going to a 21st dressed as Fireman Sam. He's not bothered about going really, but says the barmaid always gives him what he wants.....BEER! I got told off when I said that girls aren't only there to serve beer .....MOTHER!!!!!!!! I like to embarrass him.
Have a good week everyone. Bleurgh to nausea and feeling like crap and a kick up the arse for Mr C!

Hi all, had so much to say then phone rings, brain now empty, but a big huge thanks to Hilary for sorting me out, and little my tell the baby boy he will learn more if he listend to the Archers, Does a daughter in law look after the mother in law from hell if these senior moments get worse and I forget where the loo is,
Other son not P is going to call Derriford again tomorrow, did offer to pop in and see surgeon as he was rather nice and as the nhs share the naval surgeons can say it did old eyes good to see a dishy guy in uniform, as the saying goes there is something about a sailor, oh well back to the worn out sweedish toy boy..... xxx Take care all
Grrr, i've just typed a big post and knocked a key and the lots disappeared. Right here goes again, but the shortened version now ggrrr again!
Thanks Hils, LM and Louise for ideas on Vickis ring size. LM, what a devishly brilliant idea, but can't imagine me goin through with it somehow hehe. I managed to get the job done with a similar idea to Louise. She loves my nans ring and i've promised it to her one day. So I offered to get it resized for her and she could have it rather than it being in the box. She's very excited and i'm going to ask Robin if he's like to have it as an heirloom or buy one of his own. He can choose and I really don't mind which one.
Hope LM and Ems had a good afternoon out, bet you had a ball.
Hils, i'd have gone to Tesco for you if i lived nearby. You could have as many goodies as you wanted.
Tim, hope you have a good fishing day. Bright lines. You deserve a good session after all that prep.
Chrissie, glad you're internet is up and running ok, clever Hils. My brother in laws are in the navy, and yes they sure do look smart.
Louise, pounds on pounds off, as long as you feel content and happy with yourself, it doesn't matter. All that walking shows you are fit. When I used to go to karate there were members of all shapes and sizes yet they were all very fit. I think weight and fitness are two seperate things.
It's funny, but I thought I was the only one that looked so healthy and ate more than before with the cancer and it was a standing joke in our house that I put on a stone after surgery. So cheers and i'm going off now for a wine and a piece of brioge mmmmm
Take care all
Love and hugs
Jan xx
PS Thanks for your best wishes and hugs for my dad, it's much appreciated xxx
Thanks everyone for the good luck wishes again!
Well for once ll the hard graft was worth it, I only went and bloody won the match!!!! £120 to boot! I feel so good, and bought my team mates all a drink to celebrate.
I just hope my good luck continues tomorrow when I go for my CT scan, the first one since my op back in January.
Jan, let me know what the button is you press cos I want to avoid that one, lol!
Tight Lines, very tight!!!!!!
