Oh no!
Wossamatter Mosquiteur? Not trivial enough for ya?Here you go:
It is sunny here and I had weetabix for breakfast. It may rain later.
Is that OK?
Are you still in Phase 1A along with that Chunky bloke? There's Phase 3 but its got some nasty earthing problems so I wouldn't touch it with yours.

The mods pincer movement was the end of English Tony as I recall and nearly the end of me, and it was only tunnelling out to TT that saved the day.
GB lives on though
Yes, a sad day all round what with English going down tooGB lives on though
I recall the discussion concerning the Ruskies' Tramp Stamps was his swansong
Poor bugger.

Oh Dicky you're so down with the youngsters!!! I wish I was as gangster and with it!! 
I have indeed got more bites on my arm, I'm starting to feel like a mobile blood bank!!!
Has the South Coast become some sort of Primordial Swamp, ravaged by insects and with little sign of evolution?I have indeed got more bites on my arm, I'm starting to feel like a mobile blood bank!!!
Thought so
Also, more Leggy McLegster saga...
Balls.
Post op follow up today with the consultant. The good news is, I’ve got really strong bones, which apparently took quite a bit of breaking (with an actual hammer and chisel, albeit some spanky surgical ones).
The bad news is that one of the new pins in my leg has got bent, probably while they were hammering away at my bones. Instead of my hip bit and “floaty bit” being aligned, there is a misalignment of just under 30°.
The good news from that bit is that is why I am still in a lot of pain, because of the misalignment. The other good news is that it’s a five minute fix, the only downside being that I’ll have to have it under general anaesthetic next week. They’ll whizz out the bent pin, “realign” the bone ends (imagine pushing down on the spine of a book that is face down...) then whack in a new, straight pin.
All it means is I should have started with the lengthening process today, now it’ll be another ten days after Tuesday. The consultant was very apologetic but I was just relieved that it’s not going to be this painful for the next three months. I’ve got some updated pain relief meds for over the weekend, and if anything, I’m more confident the consultant will sort me out.
It’s one of those things, a minor fixable setback and I know next week my pain will be massively reduced, so I’m feeling a lot better than I was at 6am this morning.

Yeah, alright it's an improvement!!!
Glad to hear there's a solution to your on going Leggy McLegster pain, mind you I reckon a bottle of Absinthe, a pair of mole grips, a protractor, some stainless bar and a big hammer and we could have done the replacement pin op, but hey, if you really must go down the whole, over rated hospital thing..............

I've just had to swim across the canal, and that water is a bit... err... murky, to say the least. Bleuurchh!
Anyway, I made it. Excuse me whilst I towel myself down. No peeking, I don't want anyone getting jealous!
Why didnt you just walk across instead of breaking the crust and swimming?G

And I reckon you will need more than a towel to get that off, I reckon something more like a pressure washer

These were being given away in Belgium.
Inflatable sausage shape things,2 in a packet.
Easy inflate in one breath.
WTF do I do with them now ?
You bang them together (along the “long” edge) to make a noise. Er... that’s it.Inflatable sausage shape things,2 in a packet.

Yep, I know I shouldn't have broken the crust, but I'm getting a bit large these days even for the surface tension of that canal.
TBH, I'm lucky I haven't yet broken through the Earth's crust.
Is the jet washer handy, Bomma?

I see the not posting is going well Peri!!
I reckon you could be right GOG440, glenrobbo is probably going to need a good scrub with a brillo pad to get that stuff off!!!
I know you can still get Brillo pads, but can you still get Vim/Ajax scouring powder in those paper canisters?I see the not posting is going well Peri!!
