Yes.
You can often find a stool in the bathroom. X

Callistemon Tue 11-Aug-20 23:47:15

You could try sitting on the loo (lid down) and put your foot on a low stool.

Hope it helps Lisagran wink

Lisagran Tue 11-Aug-20 22:07:43

Gosh, that’s a lot of information, Bathsheba - thank you. That’s quite a plan you have worked out there.

I can't get my right foot up on my left knee any more, so I do my left foot onto my right knee first and then wrestle with my right foot up on a chair. Hth

I always do them on my bed, so I can stretch out my legs. Have trouble actually reaching my toes sometimes, and end up quite puffed out at times. (Note to self: must lose all this belly fat so I can cut my toenails more easily).

I always carefully collect the clippings, of course, wouldn't want to come across one of them during the night wink

I hope you go into the bathroom Bathsheba

Forgive the pun......or do you do them in the comfort of your sitting room?

Bathsheba Tue 11-Aug-20 21:54:35

Oh definitely my left one - I shall shake it all about when I've finished, before I start my right foot.

Will you do your left foot first, Bathsheba, or your right?

Bathsheba Tue 11-Aug-20 21:47:18

Haha, I've only just opened this thread - OMG I cannot believe the petty irritations FH has managed to stir up! I for one think this whole thread is hilarious, so marvellously, ironically mundane.

Right, I'm just off to cut my toenails, hope I don't miss anything riveting in the meantime.

As an apropos to nothing in particular, my lovely next door neighbours passed their garden hosepipe over the garden fence this evening so that I could water my garden from their water supply. They know I'm on a water metre. Nice, kind neighbours.

Oops sorry! In this parallel universe it can be unclear who is being (justifiably) ironic and who is taking things literally.
At least it was considerably funnier than the one about the Beckhams killing Harper Seven
MawB, you are very vitriolic towards me. I wasn't joking about them killing her, I was saying that some nutter in the media would probably accuse them of it if they didn't post photos of her. X

Silly Maw whatever made me think you were joking ?
Perhaps because you said you were?
Not “vitriolic” at all, but like many others, losing patience if not the will to live.*

I was joking about how ridiculous the media is, not about a child being killed by her parents. X

Lisagran Tue 11-Aug-20 21:39:01

That is fascinating annsixty. What colour Henry was it?

annsixty Tue 11-Aug-20 21:37:02

One of my neighbours who I am convinced has OCD, he actually is a lovely man, has been out today and vacuumed his whole drive with a Henry.
I did stand at my window and watch as I was so fascinated.

Lisagran Tue 11-Aug-20 21:30:47

It’s been very very hot today

No need to keep saying sorry to me.

Could I borrow your grill pan MissA ? I know you enjoy a slice right about now in the evening.

lemongrove Tue 11-Aug-20 20:37:09

The boxes to show who you are answering ( quote facility) are good as long as they are not constantly used just to say thank you to a poster who has liked your posts.Hugs and kisses to complete strangers are a mystery.?
I think I may make a slice of toast....any advice as to how I butter it? Anyone?

MissAdventure Tue 11-Aug-20 20:32:31

It was a joke, maw

MawB Tue 11-Aug-20 20:21:30

And if this is living life in the fast lane - my gob is well and truly smacked.
My goldfish could have shown these fast laners a thing or two!

MawB Tue 11-Aug-20 20:19:20

Why? MissAdvenure?

Because it is unnecessary, frequently irrelevant, lengthens the thread without adding to it, and reveals that FH has not yet realised that she has to chip in and comment on every flipping post.
You can’t have a conversation or discussion when one person interrupts it at every turn.
I’ve given up on the spurious hugs and xxxxx kisses - just do my best to tune them out.
