Twenty odd poeople aged between 60 and 80 !
Between them they keep a village bus operating twice a week ....taking around two people to town on each occasion...for roughly a two hour visit !
Quite how they can spend four hours here for there agm is beyond me...but...good on them I say....there happy doing it....and I'm happy to priovide a warm cosy place for them to do so...
Not my most profitable event...probs in region of twenty quid ....good job I don't aim to draw an hourly rate lol
Hey ho. ...that's how tis
As for deanosss remark ....I'm sure his nuts on the bar would be unpopular with food hygiene. ..
But I'll make a note of it in my safe food folder ! just to cover myself
S****y day here today.....pouring !
So....lazy day for me....I'll potter about doing what I fancy doing...and not a lot else !
b****r !
That was a fare old outage 🙂
Hope you didn't miss me to much over the weekend....
If you'd bite the bullet and keep up with the times....you could have been with us young duffers on the other channel !
Anyhow....got to fly..'re stock needed so off to do some ankle bashing at Morrison's ! Or I'll never be ready to open for lunch.....
Hi Alan, good to see you back supporting new members like you did for me when I came here over a year ago.
Will always be indebted to you and a few other special people still on here 🙂
Take it easy...
Alan, thank you for making me smile..I won't elaborate on why, but you just made me smile on a slow Monday.

Another Sick, Barbaric attack on Innocent people by a "COWARD !
My thought's go out to all those that have lost and the people of Manchester .
RIP x
Shocking. Absolute s**m. Stay strong Alan and thanks for your continued support.
Dear Diary :)).
It's been a while and once again I look back on aweek where I've had far too much time on my hand's to which my outburst's at times on the forum this week bere testament to :((
I promise myself that I'm not going to get involved with thing's on here and just stick to "Sensible stuff " whatever that is in our mixed up gambling world ? but when the " Gauntlet's" thrown down , then there I am wading in all gun's blazing , particularly upset with the whole " Manchester atrocity's " this week as are most decent human being's but just one or two silly comment's on here really got my goat but such is life , I meet them in 3d so why not here ? .
Recovery from my op's going really well and starting to walk without Crutches a little which is great , still have another 2 months off before going back to work which sound's great but is something I'm finding really strange , although I'm finding job's to get on with which is helping to relieve the bordom .
I have a good weekend to look forward to as my daughters holding a BBQ tommorow where all the family will be gathering , My son's coming back up from Bournmouth and as I've not seen him since February it will be a nice catch up , he's also bringing his first serious girlfriend up to meet the family ( poor girl ) , so I'm looking forward to meeting her especially ( note to self , take some embarrasing photo's of my son along ) .
The foster kid's are all doing well and were still moving toward the 2 youngest being adopted by a lovely couple during the summer , It's going to be strange for them and us alike although for different reason's but it's all about a new chapter begining for all concerned but still lot's of meetings and paperwork to be done before then .
Making plan's with my partner to give up my job and work with her more on the fostering , it's something I'm looking forward to so weve set out a 2 yr plan to allow for me to decide what I want to do with my business , either let it out or sell up completely ? , there's a case for both arguments but it wont happen overnight hence the 2 yr timescale .
Feeling a little tired today to be honest , I woke last night thinking my luck had changed as sexually I've been on " Bread and Water " for six weeks since my op :(( , Only to find it was my little Patterdale terrier doing all the Kissing and panting because the " Thunder " terrifies her as she's got older , so I had to take her downstairs and sleep on the couch with her with the TV on ? (Thing's we do for our pets eh ) ???.
Anyway , still gamble free and still dealing with life :)) xx
There was me thinking you were about to go into an Ali g film moment with the pooch , talking of chips I know a guy who knows a guy and he said they don't have battered chips down your end yet? Alan it's a gold mine waiting to happen imagine all the sailors lining up for battered chips? Enjoy you're barbecue and I'll catch up later , I'll leave you with some words I learned from the Greek alphabet delta, echo,alpha,November, Oscar lol
Thank's Alfie :)) , as old as I am it didn't take me as long as it usually does to work thing's out , I'ts funny though I used to have an old Brickie mate who would mention the old " Battered Chips " thing but he just seemed to Bug.ger off one day , ( Wonder what ever happened to him ) ? .
Kilo , India , sierra , sierra , echo , sierra , I think that's the Phonetic alphabet though or it was when I did my VHF course but hey it's all greek to me :))
See I had this debate with my wife and she says photonic and I know it as Greek, maybe your friend didn't b****r off but was moderated again for using a single banned word which took away his freedom of speech so he decided to up sticks ?
Yeah , I'd stick with your missus if I were you Mr Fox , she seems like the clever one in the relationship but I'm guessing you probably knew that ? :)) I'm sure the Greek one's along the lines of Alpha , Beta , Gamma that sort of thing ? I could Google it but I can't be aksed :)) .
Never been moderated myself before so I don't really know how that feels , I'll have to ask my mate the Brickie when I speak to him again , It must have been a really rude word though , all sound's like pooh to me . :(( .
Now all I have to do is get through this Captcha again , that was his doing too !
Lol..
No worries...the days don't really mean so much any more. ..
It's my way of life now...thanks to you chums on here for setting me on the right route !
I've just not had time to be active in here much lately....
Pubs buzzing and pushing me to my max...but im happy with that...just have to allow more time to get jobs done...my age...you understand ! and halfterm means lots of nanny duties...requested and offered ! but ...I wouldn't have it any other way.....
So all in all....life's bubling along just fine....hiccups ...Will come and go...but I'll deal with them...
Myself...no help needed from those selfish slots...
Right....I've got to go...world war3 developing in the garden....
3 and 5 year olds can flip in no time !
