On another thread, (about hijacking threads, if you want to find it) this was suggested as a potential thread title - each post to have nothing whatever to do with the previous one I though that a very good idea, but no-one seems to have taken it up and started one, so here goes. Not a conversation, no sequencing, totally non sequiturs.

Apologise she was praying to it not meditating.

It was certainly very mystical looking dead tree all jagged arms and fingers.Just thought what is that all aboutconfused

Who in there right mind thought up the carrot family. Bying the lot for Christmas,the biggest being 3 ft high,it didn't get a second look when she unwrapped it..and we were told to buy it.

The aim to reduce my sugar intake started in ernest. Last night the the four donoughts at Tesco across the road were reduced to twenty pence. Resistance was futile.

Do birds fly upside down?

Rosarie Wed 29-Sep-21 07:44:53

That applies to me as well ! I don’t understand why !

I might quite like scurtlewumps, if I knew what they were? But I'm afraid to ask as they might be creepy crawlies!
I must get a long-handled brush out and sort out those cobwebs before we are over-run by spooders!!

Mud. It's a Geordie expression.

I think September is my least favourite month - the end of summer (well this year it never really started confused) - distant memories of going back to school shock - all the cold, miserable months to come sad
Crikey I've quite depressed myself now! I'll allow myself to think about a better Ch****mas this year - I have that to look forward to :-) smile........Hopefully

Watched casualty 24/7 (think that was it) - there was a young man, not much older than our children, brought in after his second heart attack - makes you think

Why does only one of my socks develop a hole in the heel?

crazyH Sun 29-Aug-21 19:05:38

Ali08 - Clarts??

Ali08 Sun 29-Aug-21 13:13:28

Let's go back to childhood so I can put on my bright orange wellies, blue macintosh with the big plastic buttons, and go jump in the clarts!!

Ive got an upset stomach today. Must be all those Victoria plums! I will make myself some mint tea - that usually settles it.
