Pologies gumbud. You posted whilst I was typing.
Big band records still take some beating for sound and the memories. Apart from the Rieu chappie we don’t seem to go in for that anymore. I guess it takes a war to make them popular as I cannot see A Justin Bieber song inspiring much apart from tattooing.
Assignment completed 
Nice to see you all as busy as bees scribbling away.
Lovey clear as crystal video Solo, yerman sunbathing is no spring chicken is he? sooner him than me up there.
I feel very refreshed and relaxed after a few beautiful days in Wexford with the missus, it’s smashing having the free travel pass, at the first sign of good weather you can hop on a train and off you go anywhere on this lovely island.
Tadpoles.
When my two teenage grandsons were younger I made up a bedtime story to tell them about a Tadpole who didn’t want to make the change to Frog, a bit of a James Dean character he was (the Tadpole), I called it “Rebel without the Paws”, and just like Dean, he wouldn’t accept de feet.
I forget the ending of it now, maybe I should have written it down, anyway the kids got a laugh out of it.
I was the complete opposite to that Tadpole, I couldn’t wait to be an adult, get my ‘wings’ and fly out of the family nest, luckily things worked out great and I’d do it all again given the chance.
What’s with all these ‘updates’ on laptops? you leave the thing alone for a few days and when you go to use it again suddenly you need half a million ‘updates’, these bloody things take hours to load up and with windows 10 you have to take them on board, no refusing, surely we don’t need to be updating things every few days, the Mac is completely different, I hate laptops and windows, methinks there is something sinister going on here, big brother stuff perhaps.
Did you kmow,Jem,that James Dean tried REALLY hard to get out of making that film,but he’d signed the agreement without reading it?
Ohhh,yes - in reality,he was a
[wait for iiiiit]
‘Rebel without a Clause’ !!!

Jem When gumbud set our investigative scribbler tasks I thanked the heavens for drones…and that that chap had some clothes on
We English oldies get a free bus pass but no free rail but as our rail service is absolutely dire in so many respects that may be not be such a bad thing.
I take great delight in hopping on a bus and seeing how far I can get, there and back in a day. Had a few mishaps but that is part of the fun.
Whilst I gave up being paid to live dangerously I am still using a fully functioning much loved defunct operating service which I was assured would damn me and all other users to hell and back so I don’t have updates. Some of us just can’t give up living on the edge. .
Nasal Hair, just got the tweezers, and have done some research, the only thing I’ve found out so far is that, to extract one from well up by the bridge of the nose, is relatively painless, but, the ones near the tip of the nose are far more painful to remove, side effects, eyes water, and rampant sneezing.
Wow am I glad gumbud gave me wind .:shock:
Quite so, I was given Nose, I didn’t Pick It.
Spitty the trouble with the tweezers is that it doesn’t give the strands a proper grip, most tweezers are flimsy things, they slip, and only take out a few hairs at a time making one endure the pain of extraction several times over, my method is far more effective. I use a good pointed pliers with an angled head, it fits snugly into the nostril and is capable of gathering whole stacks of hair in the one go, when one has succeeded in trapping as many hairs as possible gently draw the two jaws of the pliers together and tug sharply, walla! job done, simple as ripping off a plaster, a pair of pliers is your only man.;-)
Next patient please.
well I think you picked a good and safe option there solo - imagine the size of tweezers you’d need to pluck hairs out of ya xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx- no we’ll leave that for another time lapse!
