"..Is the court really expected to believe my learned friend, @Bubbsie that your client is INNOCENT..?

I admire your temerity in expecting this court to believe your client could not have done such a dastardly thing.
perhaps i can persuade you otherwise.

If it please the Court M'lud..

i'd like to enter the statement made By constable @DJC as evidence
Exhibit B if i may.
to whit her Notebook,

where on the date in question, Constable DJC, did write and if i might Quote.for the
benefit of the Jury, M'lud
.

Haha he still has a half chewed pine cone in his mouth!

No more questions, m'Lud.

Your witness.....

Good morning folks, hope everyone is well, am struggling on the McDonalds diet out here in Trump Vegas, strip joints and casinos were never my cup of tea, however we had a little drive out to the Grand Canyon yesterday, only 4 inches on the map to explore the south rim, it was like a very brown Peak District without sheep .
A tad warm for a strawberry blonde though,

Onwards to Yosemite today.

Regarding breadgate, I generally go for the Tesco protein loaf. it toasts well and it goes well with a mature cheddar, but my point is that it may be, and a lot are, half the carbs per slice of “normal bread” but they are half the size and twice the price, are we as diabetics being led up the garden path a bit by lo carb or hi- protein advertising.

@ianpspurs , nice to see you back.
i had similar posts form ages back but nothing from this thread then like buses a few come along together.

For this one i just hit any likes.hugs from here in my notifications...then read
then head over to new posts,..then read
THEN
hit Home page...and read

Not everything shows up under every listing, so I've got used to tracking
across to pick as much up as possible.

and for those post i do remember but can't find even then
i go back to my profile and return to the post thread that way

Notifications is a flawed system at moment, sadly.



And whoever it was with Canestan ()

I can match that.... almost.

Lauren uses a mouth spray for her b12.

I was getting cramps and bought a magnesium spray to help cure it..(worked too )
a few morning later, i get up all sleepy, laurens been up a while
seems she had leg cramps too, but complained that the magnesium, wasn't all that, so stopped taking it.

Really works for me..what didn't you like about it..i know the spray leaves a white 'dusting' on your legs...

"SPRAY ?...For your SKIN"....:***:



seems she didn't like the TASTE....

What am i going to DO with her...

Gorgeous family picture to treasure for the ages and noticeable difference in you from your avatar - very positive. Photo shows a vibrant, fit, trim, young fella. It does sound as if sliced loaf type LC bread is rather pricey for a sub-optimal product. Luckily, I have found an LC bread mix which I like which although it seems pricey, costs the same as the sourdough Julie buys specially for her fodmap diet so she is fine with that. Quite hard to fill the gap toast, sandwiches or wraps leaves so I sympathise.

Hey young Trick what a lovely happy photo. You are all clearly having a whale of a time. Hope you can find something other than MacDonalds to eat (never liked it even when I wasnt a D). Take care, have fun and stay safe.

Had a quick look but seems you have to buy 6 packs...is that correct?

Only just spotted this PM...then I read the post below

No more questions, m'Lud.

Your witness.....

Dennis is far too young to bear any criminal liability for this offence...since he has not attained the minimum age of culpability in law which is ten years of age...unless of course you wish to apply 'The doctrine of innocent agency' which of course would mean he was coerced he is/was a victim of circumstances beyond his control therefore plainly not guilty!

Thanks so much PM... I cannot tell you how incredibly helpful this community has been in helping me not just cope with it but to make this significant progress

Originally posted by @ianpspurs :
This community may have been helpful but you put in the hard yards. Nonetheless, incredibly thoughtful of you to offer thanks for help and support. You should be proud of being such a thoroughly decent person.

I heartily concur with both of the above.

What a great photo! Y'all look so happy.

Please stay hydrated. They say the dry heat out there will sneak up on you, unlike the high-humidity heat here in the Southeast.

 

[Viv19]

I forgot to post. It was 6.6 this morning after a shocking 7.9 last night. I know what it was. I couldn’t resist the left over mix of fresh strawberries, blueberries and raspberries last night. I obviously ate too many- while persuading myself that they were healthy! Self delusional.

 

[Fndwheelie]

Sorry I been awol for a few days, seems I need a holiday to get over my holiday! 6.9 this morning, was lower when I woke up at 5am but went back to sleep.

 

[DJC3]

Say nothing Dennis...make no admissions...that pine cone was obviously planted on him...if you need a brief get back to me.

This made me laugh as much as Dennis had!
I’ve seen other people mention the Explore Cuisine pasta, I think I’ll look it out, thanks for the photo - it will stick in my mind better.

Thanks. I needed that. May I print it out to post on my fridge door please? I need to be reminded of it.

Ah yes, but what is that in doggie years? I would plead what I used to hear on a TV commercial years ago -- innocent of all but just "pretty larceny."

Of course glad it helped x
