    Ah yeah de flea the little thing for its own benefit. I know all about the Cat Flea. Had to flea bomb the house once after a kitten. Not pleasant. Hence I'm a flea expert now.:D


    Those flea bombs make your head itch by themselves.

    Perse, I feel for ya. I hope the lovely drugs help you! I have my consultation in the morning for my impacted wisdom tooth removal next Monday morning... I had that flagyl when it was infected, made me feel sick! I'm hoping for some difene too! Mmmmmmmm diiifeeennnne :P:pac:

    The best of luck with it Dave. I do hope it's a straightforward procedure for you.

    One thing I am lucky with is having a strong stomach for drugs. Took 5 of the feckers the minute I got them. All washed down with this lad. I'm so hardy I don't even need water!

    :pac:

    Another long day here, I am exhausted. I finally have a dressing gown though so I'm only delighted with myself :D

    I'm sorry to hear about your cousin Jupiter, I think what Grem said is a good idea, go and visit and be supportive in a while when it's safer to fly.

    Ah Perse I'll take all of your teeth out for free, problem solved :D

    TTWS what an adorable little hedgehog Harry is! My ex took one in a few weeks ago and brought it to the vet as it was wheezing but the poor thing had severe respiratory problems and had to be put down.

    On the couch basking in the glory of a big fluffy dressing gown and fluffy socks, now where did I put my puzzle book :p

    That's why I mentioned it...as way said above..not harmful to humans..but they can leave the hedgehog.and end up on you at times.


    When I was a young fella I was a big fan of MacGyver and loved watching it every week. My parents told me every week I'd lie on my belly on the carpet in front of the telly waiting excitedly for it to start and I had this kind of nervous anticipation habit where I'd start scratching like one side of my face, then the other, then my head etc. I have no memory of this habit but they said they used to be in stitches on the couch behind me because they knew what was coming every time :D

    Perse, I had a filling hit a nerve, it's absolutely fugging horrendous. Then I had to get emergency root canal to fix it.
    Thinking about it now makes me shudder.
    I gave whole nights awake climbing the wall with that pain.
    I hope you are coming out the other side of it now.

    To thine own self be true

    Stay out of the house for at least 3 to 4 hours. My memory was Mrs G and Ms G sitting in the car while I set them off upstairs and downstairs, before I jumped in and drove away.:D Once back home it was some hoover job.:eek: All this after a poxy Vet supposedly treated the poor thing for fleas.

    Actually Mam, with all the schools closed and the so called social distancing, the oul head lice thing really shouldn't be an issue this year. For what its worth forget about the shampoo, dry comb everyday to break the cycle and then tea tree solution to keep them at bay.

    MacGuyver was cool, the new series is a fcuking abomination in the sight of our Lord and must be purged from this mortal plane.

    Had a really lovely evening, my sister came by with her kids on her way to Tipp, and when the kids were playing together I had this weird moment when I realised "we're old now". I still think of my big sister as the annoying one who used to make fart noises and beat me up (she was oddly strong for her size), now we make conversation about the kids' schooling. Life comes at you hard.


  • Posts: 0 [Deleted User]


    All my siblings would sit down to watch it together. Mcguyver and the A Team and later Gladiators. They were the shows that stopped the fighting for a while and brought us together! :D

    Aren't you going to stop her? You can't just be dumping kids like that!

    I hope she doesn’t get stopped by the Border patrol in Tipp ;)

    The Fall Guy too, another great intro tune too from back in the day when I wanted to be Wonder Woman when I grew up.

    I seem to have grown out a bit too much for the costume though. :D

    Touched by an Angel, the original emotional manipulation show. I'd be crying before the opening credits even finished.

    Was that the one with the reverend/pastor father?

    Anyone remember the name of the one with Corkie, the son with Down syndrome? The theme was Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da? Were they the same show?

    Ya the do gooder family, christ on a bike, each episode had a "message" must have been annoying to remember all those lines, as they would go on and on and on.

    I have that and difene and flagyl. Lovely drugs.

    Don't know what flagyl is but I think I had difene for a broken rib. Brilliant stuff


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 191 ✭✭This time with style


    Plus one for the Walton's. That was a great sentimental show.

    Didn't your man who played the dad in 7th heaven turn out to be a paedophile ?? Well the actor that played him?

    I have a heap of difene here but it's too hard on my stomach, makes me loopy as well.

    You're right Mam. I was confusing it with another show.

    Home side, horizontal on the couch. Just chilling. Still feeling sad about my cousin but looking forward to getting away tomorrow.

    After discussing it with my OH, I am increasingly thinking of not flying over to Birmingham for his funeral. It might not be worth risking it at this stage.

    Here’s a piece of trivia that I learned from a FB group for gay men over 40 that I’m a member of : the actor and actress who played Grandpa and Grandma Walton were both gay and in long-term relationships with their same-sex partners.

    Who’d a thunk it??

    Sorry to hear this, Jupiter. It's better to leave it til later though when you can hug your other cousin and have a proper catch up and reminisce.
