    The end of my World - as I know it!

    I have for years, relied upon Green Giant Antioxidant (Frozen) Vegetables with a light sauce. They come in a plastic pouch that you toss in the microwave for 5 minutes. I put them in whatever I happen to be cooking. Suddenly, they were gone from their spot in the freezer case.

    What Did You Get

    I got an Army green blouse, not real exciting. Also a kitchen towel with lots of cats, more exciting!!

    Ring any bells (us oldies)

    It's called White Coat Syndrome. One thing to do is use a blood pressure machine at home and message the doctor with your readings. And of course prior to doing that, bring the machine to a doctor's appointment so the doctor can ensure its accuracy.

    Has to be Turkey

    Turkey, as it appears on appears on a platter, has lots of white (breast) meat. To breed to that end means that turkeys cannot (ahem) do it naturally. So bring on the alternative use of the turkey baster. On another note, wild turkeys have a vocabulary of up to 35 different calls such as one...

    Michael Aldridge/Seymour

    Of course I have no idea whether he had sons or daughters, but let's just say he has an adult daughter who is married and has school-aged children. So she does what she can in terms of helping with logistics, of care for her mother but she can't permanently move home, she probably has a job and...

    Black and White Movies

    Here on the other side of the Pond, Perry Mason was filmed in black and white which lent a certain air to the show. As a test, they did exactly one episode in color which only served to demonstrate the fact that black and white was better for that genre.

    Yes, all of those factors can affect your blood pressure!!

    What would you pay

    Well, here across the Pond, it's really hard to image eating baked beans for breakfast. BUT when I was growing up, there was hot dogs, baked beans, and (yes, warm) applesauce. That was lunch, every Saturday -- for years.

    Argos has a Christmas Tree up already

    Here across the Pond, Walmart already has ALL of its Christmas stuff out. Kind of strange to see decorated Christmas trees when the leaves are only beginning to turn.

    What would you pay

    After church, we usually go to a Greek restaurant and I usually have an omelet with fried potatoes and an English muffin with orange marmalade and hot tea. Very filling.

    Aren't councils silly!

    So who is Tony Hancock and why is his address so well known?

    Aren't councils silly!

    I'm sure that the supermarket would REALLY APPRICIATE it, if when you use their conveniences, that you purchase something on the way out of the store. On another note, what if you're north of 50 years and you have NO MEANS or any idea of how to make a "contactless payment." Good thing the...

    Bit Sore

    When I had my wisdom teeth removed, the dentist dug and strained over one side of my mouth which swelled up immediately. After he finished, he made the statement, "Now I know how to do it." Later on, he did the other side quickly and neatly since he knew "how to do it."

    A few random thoughts

    This is what I think. First of all, Hobbo was not the first character to be shoehorned in. It was Smiler. He was introduced as a one-off character who was then made permanent due to the fact that his character fit in. He would pop in and out of various story lines and gradually became accepted...

    Do you miss old TV sets?

    Well, I don't miss the fact that faces were always green.
