In amongst all the experimentation that is going on in this thread at the moment, mr b has decided, after extensive googling, that Tawnys recommendation of Aerogard is the way to go for keeping mosquitoes off us at night . We are trying it for the first time tonight. Will let you know the results in the morning!!

Morning pundits and punters everywhere,

Moving my old piano from storage to a friends garage today. It's too big to go up the outside staircase to my palace, so thankfully a friend has room in their garage. It's rather special too.

Have a ripper out there.

What a shame you can't have your piano with you Mr G.
Feeling a bit tired and crotchety this AM.
Might have another coffee and a bit of a meditate before unleashing myself on the unsuspecting world.

Ok. Well, i was going for a jog in my 'hood a few years ago and noticed a house being renovated and a piano on the porch with a tarp over it. For some reason i thought it looked lonely, so i knocked on the door and asked if it was wanted or not. The woman who answered the door recognised me from a gig i'd played a year or so before, that she attended with her old mum for mum's birthday. I remember her mum, but apparently i was dedicating most of our set to her mum for her birthday ( i was drinking heavily back then). Well, the woman told me her mum was rapt, and had a great night. She then told me her mum had passed away since, and that the piano was her's and the family didn't use it anymore. I encouraged her to keep the piano in the family, but she said nah, we're considering selling it. So, i said i'm interested, how much etc......She said she'd discuss the sale with the family and asked me to come back in a few days. I did, and $100 later it was mine. The woman said that her mum would be happy that the piano went to me. I can never get rid of it now. What history. Also, it's one of the few Oz made piano's. It's a Beale.

Actually that's cheered me up no end.
Especially the drunken geriatric dedications:H

Lawdy nice one,what do you do for a living!!?? Teach medical students in killer heels???

Well undies i just need to vent for a bit. I am so ANXIOUS atm. Waking up close to panic every day, which exhaust me. Terrified of the future,of whether I've made the right decision to leave my marriage. Terrified of the financial un certainty. I know that it's because I've forgotten my meds for a few weeks,back on them now but it'll take a few weeks to get back up to good levels.
But it's so horrible to feel like this every day. I almost want to go back into hospital to get some stability back.
There, I've said my piece.

Nice story about the piano,g bloke.
Sorry guys.

It was so good, I've just jumped online and ordered some to be delivered. And a chai tea pot. So exciting. I'm beside myself :H

Happs darling, make your own. It's fresher, about a tenth the cost and you can put in the spices you want.
I've been making my own chai for years.
Would you like me to send you some?
