Must be nice, would trade you in a heartbeat, I get over 30°C lately and already started using air conditioners

All this time I thought you really liked to use the word ‘flipping‘, because I think I remember we used to be able to say ‘fking‘ without the word filter?

Your excessive usage MAY have ruined that for everyone :)

I confess I use that word more on here than day to day life. When I swear I normally get a double-take or "whoa! calm down, mate" response because people see me as someone that doesn''t swear or blaspheme.
Odd what hiding behind a keyboard can do to your etiquette.

I'm having my second chemo session and they've given me potassium chloride in an intravenous drip. I've looked it up on Wiki, it's a key component in the lethal injection they give to death row prisoners. :o :o

For some reason I always thought you were based in Ireland. I guess not! :lol:

Hope it goes well Derek27. Potassium chloride's also apparently a food supplement. Or even a replacement for sodium chloride. Evidently the dosage is important as is what it's mixed with I assume.

I had a day off last Saturday, cigarettes and beer. :D

I won't be having another drink or smoke until we have some half-decent weather, which won't be anytime soon. :(

Well done Tiger. It's a START. Must be terribly difficult though.

Cooked myself a chicken pasta stir-fry and sat down to watch one of my favourite series, The World's Most Evil Killers. It featured Richard Chase, known as The Vampire of Sacramento, for drinking the blood of his victims before eating them.

It put me right off my food! :lol: :lol:

No, I considered Ireland at one point though

As a Croatian with an American accent their own accent was one of the deal-breakers :lol:

Don't know why but it drives me mad

The Irish or NI brogue is a beautiful thing. Other accents are available. Probably the appeal depends more on what spills from their mouths.

I've just been offered access to my credit files by Experian for £14.99 a month. :shock:

Why would anyone want to pay that much, or anything at all when there are free sites offering comprehensive detail, or at least far more than I'm interested in?

I've just reset my Android phone and gone through the initial setup. Since when has TikTok and Pinterest been essential apps that have to be installed before you immediately remove them?? :evil: :evil:
