SA: "which is it....

Political threads make for more vigorous jousts SA, but the Myopians wearing a sunglass (NW?) are boring, much like the acolytes with boring repeated 1-2-3 line "siggies" which are more "interesting" than their bleats.

AF threads? beauty is in the eye(s) of the beholder, and sadly I can not sing, paint, play an instrument etc, because I am locked on to science, engineering, inventing/designing/ maintaining, repairing and everyday household problems, mine and friends/neighbours. I charge a bottle of red or bigger jobs rum!
I wish I was artistic.

Porridge is fine, but not interesting, just grey.

Bored, a little at the moment as I am not very mobile. 2 weeks ago I graunched my leg. A bad cut 1/2 the length of it with impact point down to tibia (front not very thick tissue). Knee up like a balloon then cellulitus. Went from oral 250mg antibiotics to daily 2g inter-muscular bottom injections.

Leg is healing now, I have read all my New Scientist, Time, and Spectator magazines, read 1/2 dozen books, watched some awful afternoon TV films and tried to explain to my Baenjis why they are not having walks, and they can not lick my leg.

Bored, I guess so, even RTRV might look good soon, in the dark!

After reading that, I think you're excused for bumping all the political theads :^O

Being a visual type, I now have not only a gory image of your leg in my head but also one of a huge hypodermic needled aimed at your buttock !! thanks for that.

I can only imagine how bored you must be by now, so I hope your leg heals fast and you can start doing your normal things. Have you looked on the computer to find past docos etc from abc/sbs ? Good chance to catch some missed shows or you could spend some time teaching your dogs some new tricks ? LOL sure they'd rather go for a walk.

If I think of anything mildly mind absorbing I'll let you know.

SA: "Being a visual type, I now have not only a gory image of your leg in my head but also one of a huge hypodermic needled aimed at your buttock !! thanks for that."
Sorry SA. After one of my injections I was telling a friend who worked in the surgery, that the hypodermic was the size of one of the Titanic's funnels, when a voice wafted out of the treatment room "go home John"

KG: "take care John my son has had that....it's a bugga...try and boost your immune system"
Thanks KG, I told the nurse that as alcohol kills bugs, and mine were internal, I would try rum therapy!

D9275: "Next you'll be watching the Bold & the Beautiful," Arghhhhh, even RTRV would be better, I think!

SR: "Have you got a sun roof in the Mini?.
Would be hard getting in and out the door."

Spot on SR, forced to use the Prado and so Bads borrowed the Mini.

TF: "....so sorry to hear about that happening...."
Thanks TF, growing old is a "bugga", but the leg is now healing and the Basenjis have lost interest in it, which must be good?!

Monman sorry to hear about your leg, hope it heals quickly.

Sorry no Rum while on Antibiotics 😄

Re: So, monman

monman12 — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 10:39:59 GMT

LR: "Sorry no Rum while on Antibiotics"

Thanks LR, but my research (and memory) show that it is OK to consume alcohol while on antibiotics, however, (from Mayo Clinic) "although alcohol doesn't reduce the effectiveness of most antibiotics, it can reduce your energy and delay how quickly you recover from illness."

Yo ho ho and a bottle of Bundy!

Re: So, monman

monman12 — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 22:47:07 GMT

As well you know TGSE I do hate to argue/disagree, but Bundy is way down on my list of palatable rums.

Currently a Barbados rum, Mount Gay, is keeping me (medicinally) happy. However, a yo ho ho by any other rum would taste as sweet!

I'm more a single malt person myself - a nip or three of Laphroaig will usually cure just about anything.:^O

See this is when you need Big Brother or Survivor to watch. :^O I hope your leg feels better soon John. 🙂

darksideofthemoon — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 21:02:46 GMT

Monman what an awful time you have had of it - especially the afternoon TV, that really, that's the pits.

Mlor's right, you need Big Brother of Survivor to watch... now either of them will take your mind off you boredom :^O

How on earth did you manage that injury? It sounds a bit extreme for a fella like you 😞

Can you please think up and good confrontational thread for us all here? We are becoming bored out of our tiny brains with the porridge 😞

Re: So, monman

2106greencat — Tue, 05 Mar 2013 22:34:30 GMT

Why is the rum always gone ?
