Any chance of some tea and sandwiches?

Thanks, dear..

*nice sofa*

I'd eat anything, haven't had the energy to go shopping, have never been this sick before, every time I think my cold is clearing up..
BANG! Full power mode cold returns with avengence..

I am currently swigging Metatone (a tonic) not to be confused with Methadone (replacement for heroin) from the bottle three times a day, it seems to be helping slightly..

Ramette · 06-03-2011 8:20pm

**serves foxinasox a bowl of steaming hot chicken soup**

Cheap Thrills! · 06-03-2011 8:37pm

Aw! Poor FoxInSox !

I can hardly see you there behind that huge bowl of soup, bumper sized hot toddy and mountain of cheese and ham sangers!!!

Get well soon

foxinsox · 06-03-2011 8:40pm

^ cheers thanks folks

I really wish one of the young wans would invent "virtual food" or whatever they would call it..

Now that would be a newfangled invention that would be useful

Browsing through the cooking section, choose a dish and Bazam it appears on your table with a suitable wine with it..

Had that earlier in the year.Cleared up eventually.

What you need is a huge bowl of bread and butter puddin with cinnamon and extra raisins.

chucken1 · 06-03-2011 9:12pm

This should cure what ails you Foxinsox.

To cure a cold, boil together hazel-buds, dandelion, chickweed, wood sorrel and oatmeal, and drink the mixture morning and evening

And if anyone needs help with a toothache....

Toothaches can be avoided by never shaving on Sunday. In the case of an existing toothache, rubbing the tooth of a dead horse over the jaw lessens the pain....apparently :eek::D

BBDBB · 06-03-2011 9:14pm

To cure a cold

Ingredients

A bottle of whiskey
A hat
A four poster bed

Method

Go to bed and place the hat on the left hand post of the bed
Drink the whiskey until the hat moves to the right hand post of its own accord

At this point you are no longer suffering from a cold

Not all of us have a horse outside.

Ramette · 06-03-2011 9:40pm

you made me drop a stitch with the laughing... sigh.. now i have to undo the last twenty rows of knitting...
**shuffles to kitchen to boil kettle**
tea anyone?

chucken1 · 06-03-2011 9:44pm

None for me Ramette thanks. Himself is taking me out for an hour. Bless him

. Be nice to sit in the snug with a 7up.

OldGoat · 07-03-2011 9:28am

Just been browsing the oul jukebox thread and I have to say that it depresses me a bit.
Now admittadly there are some crackingly good bits of music there but my music apprication didn't start and end last centuary. Am I not allowed to enjoy current music too?
Anyone looking into the forum sees us as stagnated and locked into the past. I hope that this trend is a shortlived one and that we show ourselves to still ve intouch with current trends and styleings (even though most of it is just noise thesedays and no one writes nice singalongs anymore

)

Has anyone told Dr.Bollocko that we stole his classic rock record collection?

looksee · 07-03-2011 11:47am

Oldgoat, of course you can enjoy new music but you can do that anywhere on boards and with a much more informed response than you will get here. It would be much more difficult to sentimentalise about The Seekers on another forum!

OldGoat · 07-03-2011 12:04pm

Ahh but the beauty of this forum is that we get to critise new music with our aged hindsight.
We can listen (once is enough) to the new release by Noah and the Whale and instantly consign it to the wastebin of 'Crappy Popmusic' while the youff rant about it being cool and hip or whatever the current vernacular is. We can play the 'Back in our day' card which trumps all arguments.

Cicero · 07-03-2011 7:52pm

Evening all...:)

Anyone fancy a bit of finger food?

Ramette · 07-03-2011 8:10pm

ah you see now that is waaay too fancy and modern for this forum, we only want chips and cocktail sausages/scampi in a basket

sure my digestion isnt what it used to be, all that fancy spice and sauce would give me awful heartburn!

though i was thinking of cooking bacon and greasy cabbage and spuds for dinner... any takers?

BBDBB · 07-03-2011 8:17pm

Ive just polished off the beef stew and dumplings so give me half an hour to rest, I'll go dig out the tracksuit bottoms with the elastic waist and I'll be right with ya

evening all:)

All ye oul wans and oul fellas out there! Wakey wakey, rise and shine!
