No quitten we're whelan on to chitchat 11

Be careful with the oil boiler and clothing. Overalls set ours on fire in placement many years ago. Lucky we were around when it went on fire...life lesson learnt

Must be something wrong with my nose, I can't smell a thing !

I'd get depressed togging on and off in a garage or shed. We've a boiler room with its own door in especially for the job.

Our house is our home.

70 mph gusts promised here, the neighbours old hayshed will probably take off I'd say. Hopefully it doesn't come this direction

It's mainly when I go visiting after a shower I smell the boots at the door, generally the working clothes you're wearing at work stink anyway and mask the smell when you go into your house. You wouldn't want to smell the interior of my jeep during lambing when we had all the sheep.

Not many now have dirty working boots and work clothes in the house nowadays

Just watching Late LATE Show about kidney transplants reminded me of a local that got her mothers kidney when she was a child, she's in her fifties now and her kidney packed in and her daughter then gave her a kidney.

Ray darcy interviewed her and she told him that her daughter only had the kidney borrowed as she gave it to her daughter in the first place when she was being made in the womb

Listening to Jordan Petersons book at the moment, 12 rules for life. Rule number two care for yourself as youd care for someone in youre care. How many times have most of us not finished out an antibiotic programme or similar? Well the said reality is despite the hardship of dialysis and poor quality of life pre transplant for recipients, the most common cause for failed transplants is not taking the immunity blockers as prescribed after the transplant i know two fellas aroubd the 30 mark at present soon to start dialysis due to neglect of their diabetes long road ahead for them.

No problem, I always say there was some child spared when I didn't have them.

My wife was very disappointed and then she had a hysterectomy in her thirties which didn't go well and dealt the final no, I thought I was going to lose her at one stage.

I lost my only brother and my parents shortly after in my twenties,

Since that I've learnt there's just some things you have no control over

Sounds like more than a sprain , did you get an xray

11 days is much time. How bad a sprain, they can take months to recover fully. Plenty ice will help.

New stuff isn't worth it imo

If you have to put it in put in half length sheets of it.

Unless you really need it I wouldn't bother

some of these houses are too clean to live in. A lady was telling me that I should be doing an hours hovering a day, everyday on the same floors ffs.

That certainly does not describe this house, but the kids still have Asthma.

I organised a cleaner for my parents, it's a girl my mam used to teach in school years ago. Their house is normally very clean anyway but the cleaner does all the **** jobs and doesnt mind. A bit of company for my mam too. Helps that they know her

Just back from a few days in Portugal, weather was lovely, would seriously depress you coming back here to this weather.
