Thanks Kevin. Always drink a ton of water (Kidney stone prevention

), so more would be impossible, lol.

Bill. We are on the same boat. You for kidney stone, me for ureter stone even more with Furosemide every other day. Fair enough..

Is hoping that I can plough through my workload and submit stuff today.

 

[TypeR]

I'm hoping to beat someone at top ten at ten.

 

[Baroness von Shush]

LOL! We'll see.

I'm in need of magic technology hands today because everything I access won't let me in!

I also think I'm quite funny today.

 

[Carl Lawrence]

I hope you soon get better Bill, I hate getting colds as well.

Anyway I am off to my charity shop shortly as usual. Also Mum and Dad are going to a shop in Hastings, where they refurbish old cookers etc, in the hope of buying one to-day. As our present one is slowly wearing out! I will update you later.

 

[TypeR]

I won at top ten at ten.

 

[A Guy]

Fill me in, top ten at ten is? Only thing comes to mind here is a radio type show. A Guy

 

[TypeR]

Yes, you are correct. It's a weekday show over here in the North of England, and essentially you have to guess the year of the songs that are playing.

They play ten songs from the same year and today it was 1988.

 

[A Guy]

Ahhh, we have a station here that does a 10 at 10, but they tell you the year before they start.

Thanks

[TypeR]

Well that's half the fun gone, I think guessing the year is the best part.

 

[A Guy]

It's just about music here, no fun allowed, lol. A Guy

Do you remember a TV show called "Name That Tune"? I use to enjoy watching it, but usually failed miserably at it.

 

[Baroness von Shush]

I lost at top ten at ten although I won the other day.

As for Name that Tune , yes we had an English version hosted by Lionel Blair at the time.

I have a very good productivity level today and after speaking with a certain somebody I'm now a very happy camper.

If we're talking about old game shows, nothing beats this:-

i was the North Shropshire pop quiz champion three years running in the 80's

We used to have some good shows on telly years ago, not like the rubbish on now.

Update: We did buy a new cooker to-day and we are having it delivered/installed next Friday afternoon, whilst I'm at the charity shop, but Mum and Dad are here next Friday afternoon so that doesn't matter.

Also apparently Countryliner owned Inland Revenue (TAX) £800'000. There was something fishy about that company. Also we think Stagecoach has completely taken over our route as they have been after it for a long time and they are the main operator in Hastings anyway.

Also Countryliner can trace it roots back to 1911 in Surrey and was part of Green Line. When Green Line fell apart in 1990's, a part of the old company became Countryliner and they only ran coaches at first, but ran buses as well from about the year 2001. They had services in Sussex, Kent, Surrey and a bit of Hampshire.

I agree with you Joan tv has seriously gone downhill.

Today me and Han are having a duvet day, (a lazy day) Han is currently sprawled upside down on the chair and has made a mini den with her duvet.

Sounds like fun, enjoy the day. Saturday is always a lazy day for me if John wants to eat he does it himself I just feed myself.

Mind you I have got the washing on the go but I'll still spend most of the time either on the computer or knitting.

It's a bit nippy here but the suns out, for a change, although we did have a shower not long ago then a glorious double rainbow.

Smudge is being lazy as well she's draped in front of me on my desk with the fur of her back just hanging over the front above my keyboard.
