It seems we're not getting any changes on AB 'til after xmas so I've set up a grotto for us. Sorry it's a bit like a scene from Great Expectations but I've sprayed a few cobwebs silver & blown the dust off me doileys so please come in & sit down.
What do all the biddies/grumps want to find in their wrinkly stockings this year then? Do you like all this festivity or will you be the grumpy gran/grandpa from hell this year?
Please feel free to take a present out of the bran tub as you leave by the way. Contents may be unidentifiable....oops sorry...be varied.

Hi Biddies and Old Farts

Just had a good laugh at all the threads!! My doc has just been to see me. He is so delicious that I feel 100% cured just looking at him!! However, he says I'm being impatient and I have to expect pain for a long time yet. And I have osteoporosis!! Every time I see a doctor they diagnose something else. My next visit might well go something like:

This old lady walks into the Doctor's office and says,
"Doctor, please help me. I have a terrible problem with
farting. It's not really a social problem, because you can't smell it or hear it, but I must have farted 20 times since talking to you." The Doctor nods his head and says, "Take this bottle of pills and use them all. When they are all gone in about 2 weeks, come back to see me." The old lady comes back 2 weeks later and is angry. She says "What was in those pills? I fart just as much. You still can't hear them, but now they smell horrible!" The Doctor again nods his head and says, "Great, that takes care of your sinus
problem, now let's work on your hearing."

Now off to my bed for my afternoon nap.

[woofgang]

vinny i call that downright mean...but you are safe, roosters don't lay eggs

[Robinia]

lol gessoo - & we've been blaming Vinny

sorry to hear it's going to be a long job - you're not missing any nice weather tho'... it's awful here, so cold & dark.

I know what you mean about ailments....I'm working my way round the local hospital, as one dept finishes another one starts. One lovely consultant who I've seen for 21 years is retiring this year....I feel as though he is leaving me, abandoned with all the 30 somethings.

[netibiza]

gessoo - I'm surprised at you. FP would never have told a risque joke like that!!

Music Quiz - who's the singer and the song and yes I do know.

"The girl who loves a soldier, is either sad or gay(what??)

Cos first of all he's with her and then he's far away.

You've got to do your duty to answer to the call

and that is why I'm calling the loudest of them all"

this egg prize to the winner and don't tell me a chicken laid it.

Leon Cortez

WHAT!!!!!!! I think we have to go back to the 1950's for the singer and the song.

[woofgang]

earlier than that

I was thinking of "Lay Down Your Arms" by Anne Shelton 1956 - I was singing the verse and not the chorus. so you can have this as a prize.
