Thanks Ian they so necessary to stop lung infections at our age.
Thanks Ian they so necessary to stop lung infections at our age.Morning all from a bright-n-breezy L.A. where world cup cricket final day meets 10 person family lunch on the Eve of an 11th birthday for #1 grandson. Cast list ranges in age from 2 to almost 94. Thanks be to God that I'm here for that and we are blessed to share his grace and mercy. Pork shoulder all round - no crackling for 2 and almost 94 year olds please. @jjraak hug for the injuries and prayers for healing. @lindisfel I hope the antibiotics are working without transit issues. @dunelm thank you so much for sharing the art. Those finishing touches always elevate things so much. No blinis or bolderbols means no jackanapes just nibbles. Enjoy your day - Virat is in early so I need to concentrate.
I hope they have worked. Have a song - if only but ideal for the 4 grandchildren here today. Shalom Derek.Thanks Ian they so necessary to stop lung infections at our age.
Sorry, just reminded me of when I had to hold down my son so I could cut his hair, he was about 14 at the time, it was hilarious! I'm a qualified hairdresser but nope he wasn't having any of it! Managed to take a dusting off to make him look presentable! He has inherited the curls so it allowed to any mistakes! He now has a full beard but will not let me go near it as its taken him a long time to achieve the zz top look!Afternoon all.
Blood sugar this morning were 6.1
Now suffering from shock after having my beard trimmed this morning also. dragged under extremely close supervision by Mrs J around the local supermarket, therefore me, me’s and myself will be licking my wounds and having a massive sulk all afternoon.
@jjraak here’s to a swift recovery.
Groan, moan and whinge.
I don't think the car could ever have travelled very far from it's previous owner's home as it had done so few miles.did that car have a hymn book in the glove compartment, left by the little old lady who only used it to go to church?Not much use hereabouts but automatics are great for hill starts. Round here the sleeping policemen are hills
It is my claim of multi tasking.Abigail is of the view the fine on Everton was unfair when they let Manchester United off .
She is amazing she can watch darts, football and snooker at the same time.Our family in York seem to occupy their lives with sport. The three of them play table tennis at a local club.
Once a car is 'on wheels' assigned drivers drive them. However during overtime doing minor repair or rectification, we used to drive them to where they needed to be. And I can subscribe to that. Every car is different even the one behind, behind the one behind it or in front. Hundreds of 'em every day.I doubt it's a real skill, but I'm always a little surprised, if I drive someone elses car how that seems to be such a common thought .
Maybe I was lucky, I had the benefit of my first job working for a car rental company, where a good part of the work was jumping in and moving a wide variety of motors to and from the spray shops for repairs, etc
Tight little turnings, as we had to manoeuvre the cars in & around the workshop, did wonders for obs & pedal skills
And later on I once had a little 2nd job, driving corporate clients cars to & from heathrow
Loved the opportunity to drive so many cars I would never buy, but also saddened, that the love affair I had with cars was truly over, once the mystique of so many brands either failed to live up to expectations or simply blended into a bland mix of exotica, where it was hard to tell what make of car I was in.
The exception being when I went full clarkson, and jumped in any jaaagg.
Not a car I'd faff around with ordinarily, but given 'money no object' one of the few I'd seriously consider & one that stood out for me as 'Different'.
Neil's first haircut was done by his Dad when he was about 2 years old. It went well but his second haircut was done by a hairdresser when he was a bit over 3. He hated the experience! It was a time when youngsters were getting punk hairstyles and he came out looking as though it had been cut with a knife and fork and swearing never to get his hair cut again. He actually had lovely dark, shiny, curly locks so I didn't push it too hard when every time I suggested it, he would absolutely refuse (even when small he could be very stubborn). The next haircut he had was when he was 15 and his cousin, a hairdresser, persuaded him that he would look better with short hair. Actually, he didn't - he just looked gaunt. Second time was when he was in his 40's and he cut it himself, which he still does, every so often when he figures it's long enough to be a nuisance. At the moment he has a shortish pony-tail-cum-bun. Alistair, on the other hand, always wears his hair short and sometime almost shaved. Chalk and cheese, chalk and cheese.Sorry, just reminded me of when I had to hold down my son so I could cut his hair, he was about 14 at the time, it was hilarious!

2 or 3 houses around here have Christmas lights all over them, as well. Maybe their days/nights need to be brightened up, or maybe they're just showing their neighbours how to do it. Who knows? As long as it makes them happy... and doesn't impinge on me, or anyone else, of course.6.3 this sun...! Hang on!
Mrs L has announced it's not. So be it!
Flood warnings should be announced on the peninsula. it is and I'm trying to find another word for the horrible weather outside. It is.........persistent p.......down! Waders are out to get to the shops.
Ordered all manner of things to get bedroom sorted. Mrs L seems to think that it is in need of the lads to come back and finish the work.
Ah, well, salad to cook and sport to watch.
Have your best whatever day you want it to be.
Best wishes to you all as always.
Christmas decorations are putting themselves up even this early around here. Chugging diculous. Humbug!
No two kids are the same and that's so true. My eldest son had inherited curls from me. When he was about 2yrs I decided to let his hair grow. He was so blonde and his hair was beautiful when he started school. Daughter has long, naturally red/auburn curly hair and dark eye colouring. GP actually asked if the father was the father as both me and ex hubby had dark brown hair! I explained how much red/ginger there is in brown hair so its Russian roulette what the colour will be in the end! I was blonde as a child so was my son, both of us are dark haired now, naturally. That's why I love anything to do with hair, I find it fascinating!Neil's first haircut was done by his Dad when he was about 2 years old.

Wonderful painting @gennepherFbg 6.8
The Fennel tea suggested by @Lainie71 yesterday is working. I can move around now, but the trapped wind is still there, and not so fierce...but it is still making me tired. I have a lot going on at the moment and so that is probably not helping.
I have been looking at the Fodmap way of eating as suggested by Derek @lindisfel
My first reaction was, I don't to blinking want to work out something else new...I did do some research before I fell asleep last night. I must have taken a lot in and remembered it, because I woke up this morning, my brain said we could do this instead of that, and wouldn't you fancy having a little of that because it fits in with the Fodmap way of eating and you fancy having a little of that...and so on....
Okay Brain, you win, I will incorporate it, and I'll take more readings to keep an eye on it.

Creative...a painting I never finished in Procreate, and I created a double exposure with the trees outside my front window which has raindrops on it....and that is what you get!
I am ready for an afternoon nap...problem is, when I open my eyes again, it will be dark...
Have your best day...
A cuppa first...

You're quite right - hair texture and colour is fascinating. My grandfather had dark, gingery coloured hair (also a very hirsute man - as kinds we used to love stroking the "fur" on his arms). My father was dark and had almost no body hair, my mother was even darker but both my brother and myself were platinum blond for the first few years of our lives. My (also hirsute) brother developed dark brown hair by the time he was 14 and I developed brown-into-auburn hair by the same age. Gradually mine became darker and you could only see auburn in bright light. Now I'm steely grey with white borders while my brother is pure white (what he has of hair on his head).No two kids are the same and that's so true. My eldest son had inherited curls from me.

Thank you @Krystyna23040Wonderful painting @gennepher
Hope pain continues to ease @jjraakMorning team D.
(T2 conference league)
Hugs for many with issues, high fives to those with great fbgs.
Someone got shouted at last week....
It appears a silly little spill (a dark & wet morning) from the Ebike on the way to work, left a few bruised ribs, along with a fetching bash to the cheeks/jawline (bluey/yellow, just so autumnal).
No one really noticed, until I stupidly disturbed the ribs by carrying an overly heavy rucksack over one shoulder a week later (bad side) rather than both as rucksack maker intended .
Cue lack of sympathy, as I collapsed like a cheap deckchair, under the withering interrogation that ensued, once it became apparent one of us couldn't lay down (or sit or stand) without a grimace at the pain as the ribs creaked & groaned under pressure.
Did the shouting help me, nope
But it did relieve a little pressure valve for Lauren, so there is that ...lol
It was concerning the other day, and had me considering a trip to A&E, as I over thought things, as the pain spread from just side/back to the front part of ribs too.
But it does seems to be easing, so maybe a few more days rest before I'm needed back at work, might just be all it needs.
God bless & best wishes all.
Mr K would agree with you about the jaguar. He loves his F Pace.I doubt it's a real skill, but I'm always a little surprised, if I drive someone elses car how that seems to be such a common thought .

I have been reading/investigating more into this FODMAP way of eating.
It does explain stuff that I didn't understand why it was so, and stuff I've read so far makes sense to and for me.
Fennel Tea is still helping...
Absolutely pouring with rain here....where does all this water come from?
It's windy as well.
