    Right onwards and upwards...Moscow have a great day everyone

    A man goes to the supermarket and notices an attractive woman waving at him.
    She says hello.
    He's rather taken aback because he can't place where he knows her from. So, he says,
    'Do you know me?' to which she replies, 'I think you're the father of one of my kids,'

    Now his mind races back to the only time he has ever been unfaithful to his wife and says, 'Are
    you the stripper from the bachelor party that I made love to on the pool table with all my buddies
    watching while your partner whipped my butt with wet celery???'

    She looks into his eyes and says calmly, 'No, I'm your son's teacher.'

    Won't be in touch for a while, I'm being investigated for stealing inflatable seaside goods...........................................go tta lilo.

    I went on Dragons Den the other night and showed them my dads old shot gun, Peter Jones said "and whats your idea" i replied "it's a simple concept Peter just put the cash in the fking bag.

    Paddy on a first aid course and the instructor asks, "What would you do,if your child swallowed the front door key ?" Paddy replied, "Climb through the window!"

    Paddy and some of his mates decided to go on a voyage to were the Titanic sank and go down to have a look at it. When they got there Paddy asked if he could go down on his own first so they all agreed. with Paddy on board they lifted the vessel into the water and down Paddy went. After some hrs,. later they brought the vessel up and lifted it back on board,the hatch was opened and Paddy got out and stood on deck just staring at them all. Whats up Paddy one shouted, what did yeh see lad, Paddy just looked at them and said. Your not goin to believe this lads but after all these years the swimming pool is still full of water

    After many years of trying to win the Lotto this bloke hits the jack pot 42Mill,. After getting his wins he does all the packing for the holiday of a life time. As hes about to leave the house he shouts to his wife, get your coat on ..his wife shouts back."Are we going on holiday love." he shouts back, "no I am Im just turning the heating off"

    Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up on that morning. I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my husband would be pleasant and say, 'Happy Birthday!', and possibly have a small present for me. As it turned out, he barely said good morning, let alone ' Happy Birthday.' I thought.... well, that's marriage for you, but the kids.... they will remember. My kids came bounding d
    own stairs to breakfasts and didn't say a word..

    So when I left for the office, I felt pretty low and somewhat despondent. As I walked into my office, my handsome Boss Rick, said, 'Good Morning, lady, and by the way Happy Birthday! ' It felt a little better that at least someone had remembered. I worked until one o'clock , when Rick knocked on my door and said, 'You know, it's such a beautiful...day outside, and it is your birthday, what do you say we go out to lunch, just you and me....' I said, 'Thanks, Rick, that's the greatest thing I've heard all day. Let's go!'

    We went to lunch. but we didn't go where we normally would go. He chose instead a quiet bistro with a private table. We had two martinis each and I enjoyed the meal tremendously. On the way back to the office, Rick said, 'You know, it's such a beautiful day... we don't need to go straight back to the office, do we?' I responded, 'I guess not. What do you have in mind?' He said, 'Let's drop by my place, it's just around the corner.'

    After arriving at his house, Rick turned to me and said, If you don't mind, I'm going to step into the bedroom for just a moment. I'll be right back.' 'Ok.' I nervously replied. He went into the bedroom and, after a couple of minutes, he came out carrying a huge birthday cake ... followed by my husband my kids, and dozens of my friends and co-workers, all singing 'Happy Birthday'. And I just sat there.... On the couch.... Naked..

    TEACHER: Donald, what is the chemical formula for water?
    DONALD: H I J K L M N O.
    TEACHER: What are you talking about?
    DONALD: Yesterday you said it's H to O.

    Marnin' Mick - nothing like a load of jokes while lazing on me bed of a Sunday morning.

    Recovered from my whisky shop bimble. Indeed what I was most tempted by was the miniatures - as if the smaller the bottle, the less drink, the less "bad" it would be. :H Got out of there pronto once we'd bought my dad's good Old Cask Malt.

    I enjoy the finer things in life though (once 'twas good wine, and more the idea of whisky than the taste) so need to find new fine things to enjoy. Need to find an artisan confectioner and local coffee shop...

        Good morning, Mick and RC!

        Great coffee this a.m.!! It's cold here, but no snow and none until tomorrow night, which may give us a white Christmas. Then nothing until Thursday, and that could change.

        Wow, RC--you managed to buy the whiskey for your Dad and resisted temptation!? That is quite impressive. I hope I'd be able to do that, but wouldn't chance it.

        Can, frost bite??? Yikes, that sounds serious. I hate cold so much and even thinking about maybe getting out the snow shoes I only used a few times a few years ago makes me shiver:H

        PPQ, good for you! This thing with the ex and BIL needs to go away. It's time for you to focus on yourself and it sounds like you are doing that!

        Thanks for all the good wishes on 30 days. Trying not to focus too much on the numbers, as I got past 180 last summer, then lost it.

        Lav, I love the pic of Piggy Swissy and grandson!! So sweet.

        Nurdl, I tried yoga and found it very challenging, but may give it a try in the new year. Definitely going to join the gym as soon as I get my license back.

        Worked (volunteered, actually) for 8 1/2 hours yesterday, and it sure was busy. Did get my tree made and dropped it by our friends', and they loved it! Also got a toy filled with catnip for thei kitty, and it as hysterical to watch him! Definitely drunk on the stuff!!

        Have nursery duty at church this a.m. and otherwise wouldn't go, as we have the Xmas Eve service tomorrow. I pray that I don't get the wailing brat I had last time:H And I will NOT change diapers, so hope the parents take care of things. Then have to go to the market to shop, and get some gidt certificates for my co-workers for tomorrow.

        Hope you all have a good AF day!

          Definitely tea! My favorite right now is a chocolate hazelnut. I bought a selection of blooming teas that are quite good and very dramatic as they bloom in hot water and release their flavor.

          Mornin' Mick! Mornin' RC! Guess you could say RC and I are in bed together, lol. I had quite a night of tossing and turning. I was very clever to take my down comforter in to be cleaned while the temperature is dropping so I was cold during the night. Still to cold to pop out for tea. Mick could you send some over?

          Today is a cooking and wrapping day. I'm making chili for Christmas. It's so nice after all the sweets. Taking a pass on yoga this morning, I think I'll do some time on my stationary bike. I'll watch an episode of Sex in the City while I work these gorgeous Barbie legs.

          Out for a wander on the threads. ~n

                    Morning Lav I used to do all the crazy baking when my boys were small. We have fun with gingerbread houses. My eldest has a sweet girlfriend who is coming to visit after Christmas. I'm going to bake a couple of g-houses and have them make a village on the kitchen table. We get quite extreme with decks, additions, patios... good times.

                      :-(. Got pulled of my hike today with a phone call from the kid. His bedroom window 'shattered' when he touched it. Said he got up, put is hand on the window and it broke.. Oh yes I asked if he touched it or hit it. Back home I went because he's got Glass in his hand and has work this morning too.

                      Can anyone explain how this happens to the inside pain of glass? Before I loose my mind?

                        My casualty was door handles, my son and his friends would be horsing around and hold each other out of rooms by holding the handles.......which would then break!

                        At one point I had six doors I couldn't close or open properly! Also when annoyed he would punch walls/doors.....used a shit load of filler over the years!

                          Hi CanToo...does this help?

                          When an inner pane in a sealed unit is the one to suffer breakage, this happens when the inner glass is warmed from the heating in the home, and the outer pane of a double glazed sealed unit is cold from a drop in outside temperatures.

                          It's too cold out there anyways. Hope he's ok...PPQ
