I have always liked this thread, so here I am resurrecting it!

Today I have mainly been eating, drinking and sleeping, then eating....

Such decadence! Lunchtime drinks at the Yacht club, watching the gaffer (DGD explained what it meant) racing and the sun glinting on the water, then home for a bite, then a snooze...what a life. How lovely today was.

Didn't someone make a lot of money by buying a lot of bananas from a supermarket a few years back; something to do with a money back offer that he'd spotted? Any good at making banana bread [cake?]feetle?

celebgran Wed 22-May-13 20:39:35

Ha ha 50 bananas hope you enjoy them feetle! Maybe a banana party?

noodles Wed 22-May-13 21:03:06

numberplease I hope your sciatica clears up really quickly. (I'm also suffering at the moment)

numberplease Wed 22-May-13 21:56:51

Thank you Noodles, not nice, is it?

noodles Wed 22-May-13 22:02:12

Hi numberplease, no, it's not and I'm really fed up with it. moan, moan, moan

annsixty Wed 22-May-13 22:28:14

To both of you suffering this I can only send my sympathy. I felt when I had it it was the worst pain I had endured, I could hardly move, but on a positive note that was many years ago and I have never had it since.

numberplease Wed 22-May-13 22:28:59

Every time I move, it`s "Ooh, Ouch, Ohhhhh!!!" I think the family are getting a bit fed up with me now, but if I`m suffering, so can they! Don`t really mean that, just want a bit of help and sympathy, that`s all!

dustyangel Wed 22-May-13 22:37:13

numberplease and noodles you have my sympathies. Hope you both both have a good night and feel a bit better tomorrow.

feetlebaum bananas make good face packs grin mash one up apply to your face and relax for 10/15 min, you can use the skins to polish your shoes.

number had to read your post out loud to DH twice before he cottoned on, by which time I was cackling with laughter grin

Marelli Wed 22-May-13 22:51:02

number grin! Poor noodles and you having sciatica sad. DH's (rather large) friend was suffering from it and suddenly felt the need to lie down on our hall floor. When he tried to get up again, he held on to the radiator, pulling it away from the wall shock So keep away from radiators!

noodles Wed 22-May-13 23:07:40

annsixtyGlad you're not suffering with sciatica now. Did it just go away?

Tegan Wed 22-May-13 23:09:30

Is it just me but whenever I mention something I seem to get adverts flashing across the screen for things related to it. Feel as if someone's watching me shock.

gracesmum Wed 22-May-13 23:11:26

They are!! When I once quoted "50 Sheds of Grey" I kept getting ads for garden sheds. TG I hadn't quoted from the actual book grin

Tegan Wed 22-May-13 23:19:21

I just mentioned moths [as'y'do] and 'they' want to sell me some mothballs. Hmmm; could have a bit of fun with this, methinks wink...

Tegan Wed 22-May-13 23:20:49

Here goes; haemorrhoids....

annodomini Wed 22-May-13 23:41:30

On another site, I somehow kept getting adverts for stoma products and no, I do not have a colostomy or an ileostomy.

You can change a setting to stop that. Unless you are enjoying sseing how far you can push the system, that is.

Galen Thu 23-May-13 08:43:34

I keep getting one for erection companies! What could I have said to cause that one?hmm

annsixty Thu 23-May-13 08:47:59

noodles My sciatica was a trapped sciatic nerve and it lasted several weeks -sorry- but it gradually went away and as I said it has never come back so all good wishes for a similar outcome

Mamie Thu 23-May-13 08:49:21

Packing for half-term in UK. Hmm, what do I need for next week in SE England? I absolutely refuse to go back to socks or tights....

whenim64 Thu 23-May-13 09:12:48

You and me both Galen. Suppose it's the price to pay for feminism! grin

Ariadne Thu 23-May-13 09:16:24

Mamie yesterday, here in Devon, I was in T shirt and jeans. Today I am wrapped up warm, socks and jumper on. Bring everything!! smile

Mamie Thu 23-May-13 09:25:42

Travelling as foot passenger Ariadne, so can't fit everything in. Will bring essentials and borrow the rest from DD! It will also be a good excuse to go and find the latest lovely offerings in M and S hmm

Nelliemoser Thu 23-May-13 12:16:01

Frantically baby proofing my house before the invasion of my DGS on Saturday. I am not used to mobile, chew everything 8 month olds in my home. Blissfull! smile
