::) really....

I lived through the Thatcher years. She could've stabbed yer granny and still get voted in.  It was like the entire nation was being hypnotised to vote Tory no matter what.

Déjà vu, methinks.

I think I stumbled through Thatcher years  ;D

We live in "interesting times".
I hope it improves for a lot of people.

The weather really caught me off guard today.  My phone app had said it was 13c all week but today it was so hot is was setting the tile adhesive I was using in half the time.

Wasted two 20kg bags as it set in the tub in 15 minutes.

I tried unticking "Leave words uncensored" and yet "Thatcher" was still there.  ;D

And that thing is indeed expensive! Beh, we should never trust the forecast.

What surprised me today... My 3 yrs old niece asking me when and where I was going to make my birthday party. And offering her own house for the celebration.

Strangely one of the first birthdays that I "felt" different about. Not in a bad way but in a "AHA" way as Oprah would put it. You are a stunning woman with an incredible outlook I doubt very much that changing your digits to 5-0 are going to change your outlook.

Ah, thank you OC1!  :)  It was just an attempt at a funny comment. Other than a few more body aches I'm healthy and that's what is important.
Now let me find the walking stick and I can stand up from the chair.  :D

So your birthday was 2 days ago? Happy belated best wishes.

You must have a few years yet before you hit fiddy?

Well you 15 or 20 years left before you look fifty.

Bones, on the other hand: they don't stay young no matter what.

Yesterday I had a Tote Trio bet come in and I won £110 off a £1 bet.  That was bloody surprising - but in a very good way.

I vaguely remember 50.

I thought it all got a bit cloudy post 33.
