Reckon the puter has blown?
Must be bliss not having a smart phones at times tbfDid say when I was up there they are away end of the month
not so much on banks .... unless you like drifting .... which is how I generally mow that small bankLooks like a fun machine!

got up wed.s feeling like it was never going away ...
totally disconnected - unfit to drive - head and body totally out of sync. ...
and wiped out still.
Said to, the boss unless I was improved next day she'd be leaving me at home ....
went down like a lead balloon ...
Thursday was an improvement and had just about emptied the lungs of whatever the **** was living in 'em...
after 4 weeks of it I was well PO-ed with it. Said we'd see how I was Friday morning.......
another lung emptying sesh Friday and I was feeling a bit more normal, so we went and been improving daily since.
have spent several hours in their 32C pool daily, just floating about semi weightless, which has been great for the body .. (I don't swim, so as long as I have me floaty thing, I'm OK - drowned when I was three and got re-sussed, so me an' water ain't the best of friends .... have a deep seated, inherent fear of it) .... Clara, swims like a fish, as do the rest of 'em .... I am quietly trying to learn, but don't float very well, which doesn't help.
the dog like bark has buggered off, my taste is back to normal and my appetite is back...
short of getting mugged by whatever it was, again, I think I can say I'm on the mend and hopefully, relatively bolstered in the immunity stakes .....
could've done without
(a) it, in the first place
and
(b) it being so ****in' hot in the middle of it all ....
23C'll do me nicely, any time, any place, anywhere ....
32C was taking the p*ss
Now, I've got a month's worth of tish to catch up with .... grass being top of the list![]()
cheers Dave - getting there ....... thought the bar steward might've been down the end of the drive a couple of times .. if that was 'mild' I'd not want the 'Vindaloo' version!! ...... last tues./weds's disconnected head/body had me worried ..We are all glad and relieved that you are back to yer old self Gra
Looks like your infection was 'mild' on the scale of things and Mr Reaper didn't come knocking on yer door
We too love Centre Parcs and have had many great family holidays there
Like you, we do NOT, post anything while we are away. Usually do an Album on FB afterwards.
BUT the friends who have a limited attention span usually comment in the present and not the past tense
Good luck catching up with yer stuff......
TBH Alex, 's not my idea of a hol. either ..... certainly not what I'd choose ... like to be under my own steam, wandering at will, usually around Europe, but for the kids, etc., it's so well sorted ....... be even better without so many bodies milling about, but considering the volume of people at any given time, it's pretty damned good/amazingMy sister and BIL love centreparcs. Personally it's my own idea of hell on earth. I'm not even sure I'd want a cruise. Too many people for me.
Yeah. My idea of a holiday is a gite in the south of France for a week, with a pool for the missus and a secure fence so the 4 legged child can't escape.TBH Alex, 's not my idea of a hol. either ..... certainly not what I'd choose ... like to be under my own steam, wandering at will, usually around Europe, but for the kids, etc., it's so well sorted ....... be even better without so many bodies milling about, but considering the volume of people at any given time, it's pretty damned good/amazing

Stella + gout meds have the same effect on me, Gra.cheers Dave - getting there ....... thought the bar steward might've been down the end of the drive a couple of times .. if that was 'mild' I'd not want the 'Vindaloo' version!! ...... last tues./weds's disconnected head/body had me worried ............ and've had some of the weirdest/wildest dreams in a long time ..... not quite hallucinatory .. but bordering on very strange.
like thisYeah. My idea of a holiday is a gite in the south of France for a week, with a pool for the missus and a secure fence so the 4 legged child can't escape.
well that happened yesterday .. lorragrasslawn massacred and a triple pass down the side of the drive ... lorrra green shite, after over a month untouched ... Dane the rest of it, if it doesn't get pee-ed on tomorrow ....... forecast wasn't exceptional today, but dried up rapidly after a drizzly start ...... hopefully tomorrow'll be the same![]()
