Dormant

A more appropiate place, so a follow on from a ' feedback ' section from the forum.

I read an amusing line from Julie about it being a womans perogative in having the last word on a subject...........So, very, very true.

My problems today is the great Gary Monk leaving Leeds and my concern that this Rip Van Winkel might footy team will stay in its deep sleep.

My other problem is that its a nice day and i have to wait inside for my passport delivery.... 9.00am to 1300pm

My other problem is hypocrisy from a angry man taking out his frustrtion out on me, when im sure theres a perdectly working mirror hanging somewhere on there wall.

Please, oh please delivery will happen soon..........

So where are you off to Paul that requires a new passport ...... S/e Asia ? :)) It may be safer if your theory's are founded and to flip it slightly , then why are our Casinos so filled with so many people from that neck of the wood's ?

As a Fish and Chip shop owner and a former frequenter of such establishments , the only people that had more " Chip's " in their hand's in a week than I did were the Chinese ! :))

It's now 13.42 so hopefully you have passport in hand and freedom to leave home :))

Enjoy your day !

Not heading any where Alan, but I had intended to get a sneaky week a month or so back and then realised my passport had run out so headed for Sheffield del sol instead.

Am heading for a barbecue with friends and passport arrived at 12.59.

But, will flip it right back at you, our casinos are inhabited with people from that neck of the woods as they've lost there values and have got entangled in our perceived values....Im sure the terracotta warriors didn't have chips in there hands as I witnessed a few years back....

Offski and out

I've been sat next to a river since 8.30, drinking coffee, reading a paper, watching ma&pa canc geese look out for there young and reading a paper.

Then I read that it was 37 years ago today that Ian Bowyer lifted the European cup for Cloughie ( a hero ) And then bang, a over whelming urge to have a gamble on the footie as I see the sign...

I won't, but shoot!!f from a state of chilling, the thoughts flooded.

Netflix it is then

An ego alert and summary on my ' war on MY addiction '

I've had two experiences this weekend, dealing with wanna be politicians. My first was with the bank yesterday as they suddenly couldn't do a transfer, with which they had been able to do many times before. My question whether this was consistant, was a yes/ no answer, yet got a politician responce. The 2nd was pretty similar but via this forum by a frustrated politician.

I have a yellow streak running down my back. Thats a lie, i just thought i would say that to stave of any bs.

I'm probably one of the best one armed bricklayers in this country. Haven't seen any more, so, i'm guessing, but i faced adversity and this man won. Infact my prosphetic use is pretty impressive, even though i say it myself, but i'm sure any one who has come into my orbit will testify. Ego fact

Despite having the delibitating social anxiety on the lower end of a sliding scale, i've worked on some of the biggest jobs in London, with an impressive CV. I use toprefer talking to bricks. An ego fact.

My many addictions stemmed from an acorn from my fundamental years, with which i've either faced or facing. A vulnrabilty fact.

And guess what, i'm a good chap with a sense of humour to boot.....As i laughed at adversity and grabbed at the rewards it hands out...

I had to switch to south paw after losing my right hand... A lie, but i'm sure i could if i put my mind to it.

Reason for the above ? As i define coward to a key board warrior...........

It's an impressive CV volcano.

I can vouch for all of the above.

If you need a reference just let me know.

Rather than feel sorry for yourself - which would be understandably easy to do under such circumstances - you have responded amazingly well to losing an arm. Made the best of a difficult situation and that's how (and why) you came out a winner.

You lost an arm and replaced it with so much more than a prosthetic.

Acceptance and determination volcano (#1112)...

I'll remind you.

Julie, that was a nice post and meant a lot and also nice to wake up to. I rarely pick up my trowel, and when i do its only for me or friends, so i will gladly give the crown to the chap you saw. Sheffield Del Sol is the posh all inclusive part of Costa Del Sheffield and even has my bro as the michelin chef, and you will see plenty of top reviews in all travel guides. Being out voted by 2-1 isn't a bad thing, especially by the hunter and gatherer and the protege. Hello back.

My favourite Glint, its so admirable that you give, yet dont leave any where to recieve support. I never feel sorry for myself with regards to my arm, i did 20 years or so ago. And anyone who knows me or have met wouldn't even notice, unless i was dancing my windmill dance or giving a 1 fingered salute as i need to manually put it back in position. That loss was to me was a great voyage of re(dis)covery.

Now the following isn't a dig at anyone, but it has been my learnings this past year or so and the subsequent meetings i've been doing or the chap iv'e been chatting too. Gamcare ammuses me with how they view there rules and the stance on profanity and offensive words. Telling some one to f**k off, agreed could be classed as offensive, but as an addict that would probably upset but we wouldnt carry it for long. But, then on a flip side, a senstive addict would probably let being referred to nastiness, coward or bully is a hell of a lot more offensive to the addict as they tend to have carried other similar sh...it for a age ( possibly even narcisstic language ), coupled with shame and guilt... Emotions they dont own, yet emotions that have gone deep and acts as a needless burden to carry.

So, yes i can be mischevious, i can be angry, i can be naughty but i dont pertain to be Ghandi, i try my best and try and deal with facts, albeit, possibly my facts as i see it, untill someone can drive me elsewhere with a better articulation in how i see things.........

I might not have a gold house or a diamond car to offer like the King of Sweden, but I more than make up for it with Swedish proverbs.

And I'm not afraid to post them!

Ahem...

"When the well is dry, we know what it's worth."

That's a good one.

With a specially selected video to emphasize the proverb for you volcano.

Elegant finishing at its finest.

No coincidence it all went downhill pretty fast for Leeds after this Swedish superstar left.

I have been to the costa del Sheffield...on two reasons...I was dating a lady that lived there that was from Wales, the relationship didn't work out, but I liked Sheffield and may return there this Summer on a mini holliebob....I also went there to interview for a Masters course, that I didn't get picked for. The World head of sexology (and he was a phallic shaped idiot to boot) inteviewed me. Took the preverbial out of my Irishness and called us all alcoholic's. Now whether we are or not is a) open to much debate b) neither here nor there in relation to s*x and relationship therapy, so I didn't take the connection a c) I maybe belive we are fond of a drink (or more), so couldn't debate with much conviction...Sorry I digress..the costa del Sheffield....lovely spot...

Paul, I'm honoured that my name should make the line up but please tell me you know another Kelly & that's not me killing your band 😉

I can sing, sure, sadly the only place it can legally be heard is out back in the alley with the other cats & even then, it's not welcome!

If it helps, chuck me over a broken mic, I can air sing with the best of them until you find a replacement 🙂

You do indeed make up for it Glint.

And thankyou for emphasizing and clarifying the superb preoverb.

Baked Potatoe = Later Julie,

Very lathargic last week and the weekend, now I think I understand why, with my sneezing and aching all over start to the day.

I missed my meeting on Saturday, a little mental exhaustion I think going on, as has been quite a bizzzare past few weeks. Some good, some not so good!!

Caught up with old company Friday evening, best bud there and old director I like part of the crowd, the rest I didn't know. Was a little bit of networking but things change and still a little reeling from a project experience a couple of years ago. None the less, I learned from that experience, and that's to only deal with facts and then to know when to walk.

Now on way back to Royston Vasey, monetary it's hitting my pocket as hotel fees I pick up, but treating like a holiday job until I'm ready to go back to the smoke to work, but to a job of my choice..
