Brain Fog

My body is a skip.

It has all sorts of things ending up in it.

I would love to come for a kebab Carole, it’s been way too many years since I’ve indulged in such a thing.

My body is a temple too. It’s a bit of a knackered temple, gets given too many treats, gin, wine, chocolate, strong coffee. I would love to still be a smoker. I always adored smoking. Nothing quite like it. But I gave up over 6 years ago (I still have a sneaking suspicion that removing the nicotine from my system was a contributory factor to my awful relapse that gifted me with the wheelchair!).

TDC is holding up, I’ve exchanged a couple of emails. Her MiL is very ill, but Tracey’s been sitting with her and talking loads. MiL sounds like an amazing woman. She will be back (in Black). And is ready for a session at the Foggy Arms just as soon as it can be managed. She’s doing a sterling job of looking after her family.

At least your sons are both music lovers. It doesn’t matter what variety of music. It’s all tunes. Clearly they’ve been brung up proper.

I suspect your body is a junk yard. Full of defunct crap that went wrong years ago.

Sue,

You sound like my doctor describing my body.

i’ve just taken my funky OAP friend out because she is upset with her sister dying and her cat getting run over the same day.

i say she’s funky because she has coloured her hair green.

i had a rhubarb and ginger gin, it was exquisite.

i’ll be on a mission to get some this week.

it was baking hot outside the pub and now i need a dark shady room!

Rhubarb and ginger gin hmmmm might have to give that one a go!

Baking hot indeed. It was, until the mother of all storms broke right over us. We’ve had thunder, lightening, torrential rain and now have a moat and a small leak into our porch - through the letterbox!!

§ue

aw sue. i hope your cat doesn’t get splashed with rain through the letter box. i just googled rhubarb and ginger gin and sainsbury’s have it. it’s by Whitley Neill. i went to sainsbury’s a couple of days ago for galliano to make harvey wallbangers with. when i got home jack was just finishing a litre of fresh orange. today most of the ingredients i’d got for the meal i’d planned had been scoffed by the OJ thief. all i had were some chicken fillets and a jar of peanut butter so i did chicken satay. it was yuck!!! the planned meal was a salad of piel decapo melon, rocket, basil and mozarella with salami. i’m going to go to bet fred and put a tenner on the melon having been eaten by you know who. the peach, basil and mozarella with multi coloured cherry tomatoes was lovely. i feel like giving up and letting them all go to the chippy. i’m exhausted now. gin time i think. gunpowder irish gin! cheers!

Boys are pigs.

Gin time definitely. I’m sticking to Gordon’s.

Cheers. (Cat just a bit damp!)

Us boys are most definitely pigs, when I shared a house with 2 other “pigs” we used to eat the shopping on the way home so our “friends” (also pigs) did not snaffle all the good stuff.

Carole,

sounds like you do some fascinating salads, it also sounds like Jack needs to help out with the shopping.

Mick

thank you mick

i love a good salad, the bit of fruit livens it up no end.

yea, jack needs a boot up the bum.

he has had my dyson fan in his room, to stop his decks from over heating!

i’m having it back tonight.

love to you all, good night.

Too late, we’re eating fennel risotto (thank you Mick) the ‘sort of invitation’ is appreciated though.

§ue

sssue when you wrote fennel, i read it as ferret! what will Tracey DC say? never eat ferret rissotto!

ferret risotto is wrong on several levels, plus the fact that Tracey would probably fight to the death to protect the fezmeister. I reckon an angry or threatened TDC is likely to be as safe as nitro glycerin strapped to a road drill, therefore I think I will stick with fennel.

M

Nitroglycerin strapped to a road drill sounds like a Keith Floyd programme.

TDC knows I would never, ever eat a ferret. Not unless Armageddon had hit, all the supermarkets had been raided by armed gangs of raiders (Survivers style if anyone remembers that!) and I happened across a cage of ferrets.

Then maybe ferret slowly stewed would be OK. Then again, if necessary, I’d probably eat my cat.

§ue

… or one of you.

§

that would be a bloody funny race…

Mick

the idea of ferret rissotto appears to have taken off.

Tracey DC - i would never dream of eating a ferret, i’m mostly vegetarian.

much safer grandma

ferrets have sharp teeth!
