Any Dubonnet drinkers?

[woofgang]

I have been a Dubonnet fan since i could legally drink nearly 40 years ago. I bought a bottle recently and it definitely tastes and smell different and not for the better. So...it it me or have they changed it?

woofgang, I once had an enormous abscess on my cheek - it was the size of a large half-orange - and I still have a 2 inch scar. I was on antibiotics for 9 months as every time I went off them another little array of pimples/abscesses would spring up. I have no idea what that was all about, possibly because I was unnecessarily sinful in a previous life.

But the awful truth is I get infections, particularly in face, teeth, gums, the works; but also little pimples all over. You'd think I didn't wash or something. It's mostly just been a nuisance but over the last few years my teeth have had a terrible time.

well... seems as though Eastern England is not the place to be sick in a hurry

Morning all
Bright and sunny .Just having my tea and toast before we go to the market .
That all sounds most uncomfortable Jno .Yes our ambulance service is coming in for a lot of criticism lately .Perhaps the new Ukip councillors can sort it out :)
Hope all other Biddies are Ok .Pip pip for now .

jno, I knew somebody at work who had the same problem. She was a nurse and had to give up nursing because of the constant infections, mostly on her arms and legs though, not her face. It did finally go and she went back to nursing although I don't know how it was treated. Tis a bit grey here today.

Good evening...here I is, feeble stik that I am. Hell fire, what a rotten thing this is. I can breathe ok, just a bit snotty and nasal, and I have the occasional coughing bout but it's the awful fatigue that's got to me and feeling queasy & having no appetite isn't helping. All I want to do is....well, nowt really. Managed a quick totter to the local shops first thing, it was a case of having to go, but that was me done in. Sod it. Oh and I think I've coughed myself a vitreous detachment again, my eye's gone all blurry and full of floaters. Double sod it.

I've had a quick scan through your posts, I'll reread them tomorrow. Pleased it went well for Mr S at the hospital shaney....
Sorry you're still suffering jno. It won't mean much to you but a character in eastenders called Alice suddenly appears to be wearing teeth which don't fit her, maybe she'll sell them to you.
And did I spot Lottie lurking back there?

It dropped cold again today but at last the cherry blossom is opening.

[netibiza]

Hello Robi glad you called by, you poor thing, you are suffering, I hope your sister is nearby to help you, get well soon ole buddy!

Just ate a tom and salad creme baguette and Mr N had a ploughman's lunch, just didn't want to cook. Hija due home any minute and she'll want food!!!

[netibiza]

Oh lawdy, hija just phoned, and I couldn't find how to answer the call on new pone, ridiculous, red icon and Green icon and a White icon, had no idea! She called the landline and was furious cos there is no dinner, now I feel mean!

[woofgang]

hello Robi, sorry that you are still under the weather, i know what its is like, just horrible. We went out shopping today, at least that was the plan, there was no shade anywhere to park so we just drove around and came home again and raided the freezer.

[netibiza]

Good morning all, seems like a nice day.

I am not needed as a blood donor, which I am quite pleased about, it seems they have enough.

Hope Robi is feeling better today. And you woofy and jno.

Shaney seems to plod along regardless, and as for jude, well she is still gallivanting isn't she?

[netibiza]

Thank heavens for YouTube, have just managed to cátchup with Scott and Bailey as I missed it last week, I search all my downloading sites but nothing that worked. Don't like Suranne but she does have a lovely voice.

[shaneystar2]

Nice to see you Robinia , sorry you still don't feel too good .Take it easy .
Perhaps you need a tonic of some sort .Metatone is good .I remember it bucked me up after I had bronchitis many moons ago .
Hope all other Biddies are feeling Ok .
