Time for me to hit the sack
But in the morning I'll be back

My grandfather did but not my father. Like me my father still had hair right up I til the day he died. Mines thinner on top but quite a way from bald there.

Nice memories for you to keep, Raven.

My Dad used to swim a lot too.  His work place was by the local pool,  and I remember he used to go to the pool very early, and do a few lengths before he went in to work. 
I haven't got any pictures of him swimming though,  so you're lucky.

Just talking to Raven about our Dad's and swimming,  and I suddenly had a memory of Dad sitting on the beach on holiday each year.   
He was bald,  and when the sun was hot he used to sit on the beach in his deckchair and black woollen swimming trunks  with a knotted handkerchief on his head, bless him. 
Wish I'd got a picture.

Does anyone else remember men wearing knotted hanky's on their head?

(Bet Klondike still does).   

Lik wot I said - I talks proper

bury them n their own rubbish!

me too

We are allowing this, simply because we can do nothing until we can elect a different government.
I assume that will now have to wait for over three years until 2029.
I'm hoping that it might be possible to bring in an early election somehow, because if we have to wait that long I am quite sure that Labour will have been able to do untold damage to the country.

Chicken Chow Mein for tea
That'll do nicely for me
With spare ribs to follow
And then I can wallow
On the sofa, my dogs and me.

This has been wished on us by politicians who are afraid to burn it, and since China stopped accepting our recycling to burn it, places to take it legitimately have become harder to find.

Reports are saying these men are being charged with money laundering too.
