So I beat the AI then with a fix. That was just an afterthought too.

Active in the last 10 minutes means having had sort of interaction with the forum either posting something or clicking one of the links. As I said I never log out and most of the time my if wont be there. 

Thanks for getting in touch Ruthio.  Our intermediary is equally as appreciative 🙄

Decorator round tomorrow to start repainting the kitchen.  Hopefully only a couple of days work.  The we can finish everything off on Monday/Tuesday

I know that.  And the tragedy is that his inability to think ahead has destroyed a 9 year old and his family, as well as his own and probably his family.

I know of a nice, middle class family near me with the father a TV producer with a famous FiL, the mother was lovely but died of cancer, and the daughter an aspiring actor.  The son, who played with my son, ended up murdering someone brutally on a drug related issue.  He's in prison for "life" and his family have been castigated through association.

So sad.  No winners.  Everyone's a loser.

Nice to have a bit of company ey, Michael.
Hope you have an enjoyable time.  

Lil decided to give Bill a stroke
Unfortunately he thought it a joke
He told her to keep still
Else he'd stop and give her the bill
'Cos Bill was an honest bloke.



So Lil swung her legs off the bed
Then glared at him and said
'I  might as well go
If you're being a holy Joe
And gave him a slap round the head!



While sat in his dentist's chair
Brian hoped he would get good care

Quote from: muddy on Yesterday at 05:38:50 PMDavid Attenborough. ( after the man from the lottery )

I feel quite previleged to have lived at the same time as David Attenborough ( who will turn 100 next year )

What an amazing man .

I have always liked and respected that man Muddy,  but lately I have been turning his programmes off.
The reason for this is,  there seems to be an abundance of nothing but blood thirsty kills taking up too much of the programmes now.  

 Yes, I know that's how wild animals live,  but when nearly the whole programme is taken up with nothing but animals ripping each other apart,   I have to turn off.   
And something that really irritates me even more,  is the way the kills are made more exciting by that awful excited orchestra which gets louder and louder as the terrified creature's demise approaches.   Why does an orchestra suddenly have to burst in??

I am interested in all aspects of animals lives,  not just someone filming terrified animals in their final minutes.

Quote from: Dextrous63 on Yesterday at 12:50:30 PMImagination JB.  The 15 year old decided not to think things through and the likely consequences of his actions.  He'll always be recognised as being a killer, and possibly have nightmares/flashbacks for the rest of his life.  Any chance of a "normal" life is gone.

It was his own choice, Dex.
