    I left some Quorn in the supermarket the other day. I went back and asked, "Have you seen my vegetarian mince?"

    The shop assistant replied, "No, but walk up and down and I'll give you my honest opinion".

    When my son came home from school, I showed him a bucket of water.

    "I'm sorry son. Your snowman has died"

    My flock of sheep were stolen from my farm last month.

    All the other kids on the carousel started screaming.

    My son is cold and calculating

    I've turned the heating off whilst he does his maths homework.

    As I stood at the bus stop having a smoke, I was surprised to see the bus leaving before its scheduled time.


    I could've sworn I put the f.cking handbrake on.

    puzzle

    This is a most unusual paragraph. How quickly can you find out
    what is so unusual about it? It looks so ordinary, you'd think
    nothing was wrong with it and in fact, nothing is wrong with it.
    It IS unusual, why? Study it. Think about it and you may find
    out. Try to do it without coaching. If you work at it for a bit,
    it will dawn on you. So jump to it! Try your skill at figuring it
    out! Good Luck - Don't blow your cool!


    what are the next 3 letters in the sequence ottffss......

                Morning - well I can see my house for first time this week - fog still here, but we can see!
                TGIF for sure and off for the three days - not why the calendar has writing all over it though - not sure that being off means much - just a different work!!
                New glasses in - so maybe that was cause for fog??? Will need to go see what horror I chose when eyes were dilated!
                Handyman just called with his plan - and sounds good....just little jobs today - I will own house in June all being well, and then maybe I can start on the big jobs...or have someone do them for me as I am not Pie (or Mick)!!

                PPQ - so sorry about your eye, that sounds rough and a little scary - I am not sure if you wrote, but do they know what caused it??

                  Hi SL and Pauly.....

                  It is triggered by stress. Dealing with my son over Xmas would fall in that category!!!
                  Usually it comes on gradually and I can stop it in it's tracks.
                  This time I was fine one day and boom full blown attack.
                  I am amazed I was able to get a CT scan this quick. Mind you if the retina has separated I'll need surgery to fix it.

                  Mick...it's a slow work day today so am going to back to finish reading your post and figure out the paragraph.


                  :sad: I can't get any of the puzzels!

                    Gosh,that is so scary that stress can trigger such a reaction! I hope it goes away,we don't want surgery, try and get some rest this weekend

                      Evening all
                      Sorry to read of your eye condition PQ, lets hope it gets on with the mend. Retina detachment is some serious stuff. Listen to Dr. Pauly, rest sounds like the right medicine. I went to the eye doc myself today. A month ago I was toying with the idea of lasik surgery and decided against it. Got my prescription on glasses updated and the reading portion of my bifocals were not quite right on the new glasses. Hopefully got that straightened out today.

                      Buddy of mine got a new banjo this week so we're having a banjo release party this weekend. Tunes and wisecracks will be on order tomorrow. Looking forward to both.

                      be well everyone

                        NS, the paragraph teaser still has me stumped, but will take another look. PQ, sorry about your eye, and glad you sought treatment so quickly. Pauly, maybe you get some points for just wearing workout clothes? SL, hope the glasses are a nice complement to your Carole King hair, and that your small projects turnout well.

                        I had a wonderful day at work! The kind I wish to keep in mind on the not-so-wonderful days. I was in the presence of talented string musicians and, in another group, dancers, all practicing for upcoming competitions. Lucky me, for sure!

                        Mick, I do have a kindle, and appreciate your suggestion.

                        Hi, to you too, Sam.

                          Here's my lame guess on the unusual paragraph. It uses the pronoun,"it", twelve times.

                          Next three letters to ottffss, are e,n,t

                          Off to work on the math...

                              Thanks, NS! I'll take another look.

                              Don't know how to approach math problem; you're on your own with that one.
