We've had it for years over here. Now you don't even think about it.
Keep some in the car for the "Big shop" or if you're stuck. What the Hell
splash out the 5p on a bag ! )
"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
How does this 5p bag work ?? do the stores have to tally up all the 5ps they have taken and send the govt a cheque ,so then the govt can go and make a machine to clear up all the bags ,floating down the Thames ,or do the govt just take the extra tax ,and but £500 a roll wallpaper with it for the primeministers office 8-)
A question to Americans: US hospitals seem to be obsessed with wheelchairs. When I watch TV and movies I notice that patients are always in wheelchairs when they leave hospitals, even if they were there for a broken finger or something equally irrelevant to wheelchairs. Is this only in movies?
On our last Transatlantic Crossing there was a white - haired Lady, that walked perfectly ok at Hamburg Airport. When arriving in NYC, she left the plane first in a wheelchair.
We saw her later in the ship - every night on the dancefloor - dancing like a champ.
Lesson learnt: If you want to cut the line at the immigration - call for a wheelchair

I know a priest who looks and talks like I imagine priests did 100-200 years ago. He loves literature, so he goes to a relevant location every year to study a famous author. One year he went to St Petersburg to study Dostojevsky. While there he bought the outfit a a Russsian orthodox priest as a souvenir
When he was about to og to the airport for the return flight, he remembered the long lines and the very slow security check. He decided to og as a Russian priest and do the sign of the cross if anyone talked to him in Russian. It worked! He got through security in no time )
I came up with this ,this morning ( From a phrase by Matt S ) and in no way is it a rip off, of
Lake Wobegon or Garrison Keillor.
Dalton’s Tenure.
Hi folks, sit down and rest a while as I tell you a little about the town I grew up in, a little piece of heaven called Dalton’s Tenure…………..
Named after an old snake-oil salesman. Who’s “ Medicine” cured many eye disorders, but in truth just left you a little misty eyed.
Not as exciting as a one horse town, we had to get a pony in high heels to sashay up Main Street at the weekends.
I can still remember running from Mommas Farm up Moneypenny’s dirt track, to see. Old man Connery sitting on his old rocking chair, spitting out tobacco and cussing at anyone who passed by. Pastor Brosnan, in those very stylish Italian suits, as he said “Just because you’re doing the Lord’s work, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look good”, then run off to comfort the beautiful widow, with the DB5.
Across the street is Moore’s Ice cream store. It’s amazing how technology moves on, in those days we only had three flavours , these days it’s more like five !
Mr Moore was always laughing and telling jokes, slipping in the odd bit of sexual innuendo, “ Roger by name, Roger by nature” he once told me. Thinking about it, it was a little inappropriate to tell an eight year old.
Young Lazenby was the local bad boy, He had a cellar where he’d take all his young ladies, for an afternoon’s debauchery, holding hands and even touching their calves !
Until that terrible day when local MILF and man-eater Miss Galore took him down to her cellar ! No one ever really found out what she did to him down there, but when asked. His face would drain of all colour and he’d mutter “This never happened in the other cellar !”
A few years later a stranger arrived in town, who split the community, those who though he might turn out to be a good kid, but others who hated him from the start. He didn’t help things by cussing all the time, The local paper interviewed him for over two hours and when they printed the story it consisted of, “ Hi I’m Daniel, ….. Bye now “ , apparently it was all F this, and F that, F the other. He didn’t like it even saying he’d rather slit his wrists than do another.
Although he did take a lot of stick from some people, a group set themselves up in the tree house on Tanner’s farm, and actually trained canaries Morse code, each bird learning one letter, then they’d be sent to perch on the web of telegraph wires outside Craig’s house, chirping out nasty messages.
He once told me he was getting loads of abusive tweets off the web.
Sill he stayed, to become just another citizen of Dalton’s Tenure, when the women are beautiful, the men are confused and the children are all above average.

No, it happens every time a person is released from the hospital. I believe it's a liability thing---they are responsible for your welfare while you're in the building, and so if you should fall and hit your head in the hallway after receiving treatment for whatever malady you were admitted for, they would be liable for the new injury.

That's what I suspected .... Well, it looks silly )
Now the sun is gone here. Not for the day, but for the winter. The combination of the mountains and the northern location makes sure this place will not be in the sun until the early spring. Just to rub our noses in it, the other side of the fjord is not in the sun shade, so we get to see the houses there lit up by the sun for some time now
Not worth the money. It'll be lights out for the winter on the other side soon. This might sound strange to Californians or other tanned people, but on the other side of the coin, we get lots of rain!

Funny I remember learning during the Scottish referendum, that Scotland
and Norway were linked in an alliance, way back in the Mel Gibson old days.
I'm guessing because of the similar weather ? )

I knew that would rattle your cage but I was watching it on TV last night and turned it off !! Just had to get it off my chest.

You'll have to invest in that big mirror system, you mentioned long ago.
