Thank you! (: (all I can manage!)
Yes, but which 1s? There’s loads of em.
My last ferret - lived to 14yrs. William. He became a real old gent… we thought he would go on for ever. Lots of ferrets came and went in that time. Bodger,Badger, Jack, Tansy,Buddy,Snowy and Uncle Tom Cobley and all.
l learnt the first 4 lines … years ago. So was thrilled when l saw the complete poem in print.
Hahaha she’s a button addict … just got to press one more … It’s ok, Oliver has the remedy and will wean ourTracey off the typing … x
Emojies apart, what the invasion will need, once we’re settled in a convenient pub/distillery, is Art. The Great Golden Age of MS Art.
We’ll have an Arts Festival. It’ll be bigger than Llangollen, Glastonbury and the Oktoberfest put together.
There’ll be live demonstrations of ferret rustling, sock darning and a Guess the weight of the Butterfly thingy.
And that’s just for starters. As soon as the rest of you get your creative juices pumping who knows what we’ll come up with.
What’s a charlie horse?
underwater basket weaving.
thank you.
My first emojithingy.
Apparently there’s an emoji movie coming out…unbelievable. I’m afraid I’m an old Luddite and can never fully understand the more random ones, smiley faces I can manage
Oh thank you Spacejacket, something I often think about to be honest, worry myself too much Mr Dc says! Be distraught if anything happens to him, think the vet thinks I’m a bit OTT as well, never thought I’d be ruled by a blooming ferret!! xx
Llangollen has an Art exhibition!!! I only ever get to the Bull (1st pub) I am willing to take all the emoji torture, wait till mine are back you lot, just wait (no emoji Trace)
Fez would kill for a rustle, not quite the same a stuffed unicorn.
Ooh, Charlie Horse = spasm. Who knew? Why did we need to? Isn’t spasm a good enough word? Or is it something that Americans need to make their own? And why would anyone want to make, or watch, an emoji film? I won’t be watching it. I can barely bring myself to watch a film film. And I refuse to call them movies.
Curmudgeonly? Ooh I hope so, it’s been my lifelong dream. I’ve aspired to it, but never thought I could reach that longed for accolade.

The Americans have probably pinched my emojis for their stupid film. The Curmudgeon could also be the name for the boat, or The Disturbed, or The Curmudgeonly Disturbed, not sure about The HMS Spasm though. x
It’s a horse that belongs to Charlie, obviously.
Well, I’m back. Actually, we came back on Friday night. (It’s taken me this long to read the backlog.) We weren’t supposed to be back until Sunday night but Hubby saw how weak and unsteady I was on Friday and insisted that we cut the holiday short. It turns out that it was a good thing that we did. I had difficulty moving around the house on Saturday! It means that we’re going to have to change what we do on holiday. An active day has to be followed by at least one “lazy” day. Two consecutive active days are OK if it’s just a weekend away. Then I can have lazy days during the week. When we’re on holiday I’ll have to pace myself more than I have been doing. It’s not something I want to do. I’ve always regarded holidays as a time to go somewhere new and/or see or do new things. I’ve never liked spending time doing nothing on holiday. Now it seems I have to. Hubby has told me not to do anything active for a week to make sure I recover fully.
Today’s brain fog: I was pouring myself a cup of tea. I had the open milk bottle standing ready. I reached for the kettle and just managed to stop myself pouring milk into it. (Hubby poured milk into the teapot while we were on holiday. I have MS. He has senior moments.)
Maybe MS is for More Senior moments
sue, if you’re talking to kids you’re allowed to say moooovies, but otherwise flims are filums
Pin the tail on the Charlie horse ?
Face painting (emojis only)
Drinking competition (shrewd suspicion who will win)
Bumper chairs
Spin round the walking stick (drinking games)
Just a few ideas for our exhibition x
Flutterby, I do hope the drinking competition involves alcohol & not water, cos otherwise I’m not playing. (they are back), for now, it’s like the twilight zone, flickers of appearance, then gone… der na ner na, der na ner na…
