Hello All

I just thought it might be a good idea to have a new thread as Christmas and New Year are catching us up very quickly.

I appreciate that as we get nearer the time people will be busy with family time etc so I thought we could use this thread to discuss Christmas and the New year. Your plans for the festive period and hopes and aspirations for 2024.

There is one thing we all have in common and bonds us together Prostate Cancer - either as the person diagnosed/wife/partner/carer or family member and for some of us 2023 has been a tough old time. It's been a very good year though on the forum I think - everyone has pulled together and been very thoughtful, welcoming to new Community members and amazing at providing help, information and support to each other.- that's what we do.

On a personal note I would like to thank everyone who has helped me during the year - especially since I have had the "Community Champions" hat on - it's very much appreciated and long may it continue, thank you again!!. There will of course be the usual support throughout the festive season from the Community.

So on that note stay safe and have the best Christmas possible and a great 2024.

Best wishes - Brian and Mrs Millibob (Lorraine).

  • One of my pet hates is people walking around the supermarket in just their swimwear. Looking at a load of lard walking around really puts me off my weekly shop.

  •  That vision of tubs of lard walking about is enough to put me off my custard creams & reminds me why I must keep fit & not put weight on Cookie

  • My son plays water polo for one of the Manchester teams - he's 6' 3" and thin as a rake but well built if you get my drift. His team had a float in the Manchester Pride parade this year and there he was on the back of a truck wearing only a pair of budgie smugglers and a swimming cap (all in the team colours and in the best possible taste!!).

    It could only be my family!!!

  • Shar, here's a thought for you.  What if they weren't wearing any PJ's?

  • Exactly!!!

    Could be worse, it could be a nudist colony.

  • Ulls, Brian,  can't remember the last time Newcastle won!

  • Steve. That reminds me of a time we stumbled across a nudist beach in Santorini. You know what they say - those who could don't, those that shouldn't do. A very large German lady was having difficulty getting out of the water - the problem was what do you grab hold of to help her out as she was well oiled up? Need a stiff drink now to get the image out of my mind.

  • Away to Liverpool tonight. I might just watch that - it could get a little tasty.

    Come on the toon!!

  • Hello everyone, learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow, take care, Eddie

  • I can remember watching a TV programme about a naturist holiday place and it showed them in the supermarket totally starkers hanging over the freezer choosing their frozen veg. It still makes my eyes water
