Darki, the meat and veges are no longer what they used to be.

Morning all

The sun is out so I am off to do the shopping.

Darki, the meat and veges are no longer what they used to be.

No they aren't are they moon.  I can also remember my grandmother cooking up my grandfather's breakfast...

several rashers of bacon done in the fry pan,

two tomatoes fried in bacon fat along with a couple of eggs and then the bacon fat soaked up in two pieces of bread that was fried to a crisp brown.

He was a fit, but not fat man - nowadays he would be gross...

Meat and all other things are certainly not what they used to be and I'm sure it is one of the reasons that obesity and heart disease are so prevelant today.

Some things were best left alone 😞

Morning all The sun is out so I am off to do the shopping.

Morning back and hope your shopping is a happy event.

I was supposed to go shopping yesterday after I'd had lunch with friends, it was at lunch I discovered I didn't have my credit card and couldn't recall where I'd used it last.

Fortunately a good friend shouted me lunch and over that time I was able to track my movements from the day before to be pretty sure the card was in a pair of slacks I'd worn, but I was glad to get home to confirm this before I cancelled the card.

Sooo shopping still has to be done sometime.  Sigh!

Good morning seniors.

Good afternoon seniors:-)

Enjoy your day everyone

morning gerries

and others

that ladder Richo....I only got up to the first rung and my knees wouldn't propel me any further!  So that was lucky.

O the joys of getting older!:|

I left my job at Bushells to go to a job at a shipping co.   It turned out my new boss had known one of my rellies and started to make advances...I was 20 and he was 50!  So I decided to ask my boss at Bushells if I could come back...At least he was only 35!  He agreed....don't know what happened to my successor? He remained a good friend for 20 years...when I got divorced I stayed with him for a bit, which was handy.

Does this mean Gil, that because he was only 35 his advances would be welcome?  :^O
