There are bags of nuts that carry the warning 'This product may contain nuts'. 🙄

My carer has just been. My goodness, they work long hours, 7am until 9pm
with, if they are lucky, with no holdups, perhaps 1½ hr lunch break. They 
are worth their weight in gold.

Yet I think there are more road deaths.  I always felt safer in a jumbo than in a smaller
plane.

As with any heatwave we are continually told to 'Drink plenty of water'
'Avoid the busy roads'.. Told to us every Bank Holiday.
*Storm Warning* Avoid the sea front...
After a big freeze.. WARNING.. Slippery underfoot..
Why do we need reminders about things we should already know?

I can understand a warning saying 'Thieves operate in this store'
That is a quick reminder to carry your bag in a safe position..

Flying in to land at one time, we did a swift maneuver to avoid a plane that was crossing the runway..
That was scary.. We hade to circle the airport for ages..
 Looking back .. I think we take chances in all travel..

Who often went out in a frock

As Flo sat there with her cup of tea
Pondering her life with her old man, Lee
She wondered what her life might have been
But they'd been young, and he'd been keen
What had she married bingo caller Barry
