I've had the TT Alliteration Group on. They wonder if "Fatboy's Momentous Milestone" could be amended to "Fatboy's Fabulous Flagstone" ?

I have to say yours makes more sense but such considerations have never stopped them in the past.

Today I will mostly be using a dremel and the odd measure of Ricard 51 for lubrication.

Rusted Screws!

Well I’ve arrived on the physio phun bus with just enough time for hot pug on bread and some coffee.

I’m tempted to have “afternoon beers” later on. Dissuade me...

You should absolutely, definitely, with out a doubt, unquestionably, decidedly, most assuredly look at the decision making process with an open minded, out of the box, bluesky thinking, abstract approach to the positive and negative health and emotional wellbeing, having alcoholic beverages in the afternoon may, or may not present to your current, and indeed future, state of financial, physical, emotional and mental health!!!! yesnono

Much to his dad and mum's dismay
Bobbers ate himself one day
He didn't stop to say his grace
He just sat down and ate his face
"We can't have this!" his dad declared
"If that lad's ate he should be shared"
But even as he spoke they saw
Bobbers eating more and more:

First his legs and then his thighs,
His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes
"Stop him someone!" Mother cried
"Those eyeballs would be better fried!"

But all too late for they were gone,
And he had started on his dong...
"Oh foolish child!" the father mourned
"You could have deep-fried that with prawns,
Some parsley and some tartar sauce..."
But B was on his second course;
His liver and his lights and lung,
His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue...

"To think I raised him from the cot
And now he's gone and scoffed the lot!"
His mother cried "What shall we do?
What's left won't even make a stew..."

And as she wept her son was seen
To eat his head his heart his spleen
And there he lay, a boy no more
Just a stomach on the floor...
None the less since it was his
They ate it - and that's what Bobbers is. lick

Love that glenrobbo, thanks!!!

It's all going horribly wrong here at wemakeplanebits.com, a machine I was supposed to run on Saturday morning, has just been taken out of use due to a quite spectacular component failure!!!

The old "dissuade me" gag.

Don't worry, we'll be here, Dibble, beers in hand.

ION, I think I need to make an appointment with my optician - you know when your eyes scan something too quickly and you see words that aren't there...? I was looking down the list of threads in the TV forum earlier and am convinced I saw one that said 'Jackie Stewart to return as Picard'...

Not quite, a large bracket holding the cable drum for the upper turret has decided it no longer wishes to remain in one piece, or attached to the machine!!

pm (see what I did there? Eh? Eh? Geddit? Oh, never mind. I don’t know why I bother).

Anyway. ION...

Sliced, hot pig and chicken by product on barm cake - done.
Minced, hot pig and red condiment on barm cake - done.
Black coffee with too much sugar - done.
“Warm up” on the physio gym exercise bike - done.
“Unassisted” walking between the parallel bars - done.

The last one wasn’t pretty, at all. The physios aren't particularly thrilled with my technique, but pleased I can at least manage a few steps without crutches. It felt much more “secure” walking between the parallel bars, which made the walking feel a lot more natural.

I’m now home and thinking of having a pre-day drinking snooze. Oh, did I mention I was thinking of heading out to the bar for a “couple” of beers this afternoon?





And while I remember, I’m going to be at the police residential rehab centre in Harrogate for the last week of February and the first week of March, so if any Trivialites are around at the time, I’d be delighted to meet up for a pint or a coffee.

No, no, we saw, don't worry, Dicky has made a note!! And yes we were aware of your need for an afternoon beverage, did you not see my attempt to make you take stock of the situation???

I'm thinking about an afternoon beer myself but I must walk my mini hound first.

Talking of hounds we now have confirmed sighting's of a wolves in our area and one has been seen very close to our village. Also a couple of photo's in a local paper.

So it's caution with letting Mavis off the lead for the time being.

She has been very barky in the garden at night in recent weeks.
