A hospital in India during WW2, treating PTSD.
Umm…no doubt I’ll be sneered at by the colonial roo-bonker who can’t play even ONE instrument…in fact,he’s the only person EVER,to play the electric triangle whilst standing in a puddle!..but iff’n y’don’t mind my saying,Miss Sweetie…it’s actually ‘Deolali’,not ‘doolally’
…and,at the risk of snotbox going off pop again-I know this because my stepfather was a Gurkha. I’ll tell you about him via PM if you’re interested,Sweets.
I am Pugsy.
Email would be better.
Fascinating stuff.
I stand corrected. X
Awww-and you wonder why my flint heat warms,whenever I see your name… #HUGE sigh# [eat shit,gumbug]
If we all met, would we have to huddle under a decaled brolly, in some Pub garden?
Today whilst some scribblers were casting endearments at one another across thousands of miles, I was trying to post a utube video in a futile effort to bring peace and harmony to all men and women, praise the Lord!
“Everything is beautiful
In its’ own way
Like a starry summer night
Or a snow covered winter’s day
Everybody’s beautiful
In their own way
Under God’s heaven
The world’s gonna find a way”
Is everything beautiful in it’s own way?
Some will remember Ray Stevens singing that song way back in 1970’s. Actually I was singing it as I tried again to post that same utube video here, Phyllis was smiling over to me as she arranged some flowers in a vase, her long auburn hair cascading down her shoulders as she placed each bloom where she deemed fit, when she’d finished she had one rose left over, “Where do you suggest I stick this”? she asked. I took it from her tiny hand and gently placed it in her hair, kissed her on the cheek and said “Beauty belong to beauty, my dear. All together now… How sweet, ahhhh. Might try me hand at romantic novels, whatcha say Gummy, watch out for Jem Cartwell.
I was still trying the square brackets, dots, slashes and what have have you and It wasn’t long before I changed my mind and altered the words to “Everything is useless in it’s own way”. Feeling frustrated and annoyed I went outside to the garden, kicking the little concrete gnome in the head on the way to the workshop.
Strangely enough, everytime we buy something new it’s always beautiful, say a car, a TV, a new smart phone etc., then one gets fed up with it or it starts to give trouble and it becomes a useless piece of junk and the but end of very abusive language.
Except of course a work of art, a painting, sculpture, good jewellery, or a well worked precious stone, yes the De Beers brothers got it right when they said a diamond is forever, beautiful forever too.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you came back as a flawless diamond, sought after and worshiped by all, and safe in the knowledge that you are the toughest thing on Earth.
I must go now, the wife has just asked me out for a few pints, her treat, see it pays to be nice.
Aww Jem you really are a romantic.
I so love your posts.
I am going to teach you how to post YouTube tomorrow.
erhmm Jem Jem me old mate me old cobber me old mucker - I can show you a site - nudge nudge - wink wink where you don’t 'ave to mess about with slashes and semi-quavers etc etc - just click on a utube button - paste in ya copied address and bobs ya uncle - even though he isn’t - no advertising mind jest sayin - I’ll email ya cos they 'ave eyes even in the PM dept see!!
why the feck they can’t do it here I don’t know - must be technological illiteracy - bit like wot Pugs has got?? - only sayin only sayin mind - no nasturcians meant!!
Well, hopefully I have sorted Youtube out for Jem.
In the token of music
well the proof etc etc come on Jem show us ya fettle - well if Phyllis isn’t lookin that is!
He will. We will help.
Thank you all for your help, I’ll be having a go later, I got one urgent repair job to finish first.
I had to go back over the fence with another coat of wood preservative earlier today.
As I sat on a small stool merrily splashing away I got to thinking how the preserving agent in the paint prevents the wood from wrinkling and withering and finally falling to pieces, then I had a brainwave.
What if one used this stuff as a beauty treatment? The principle is so simple, if you paint a coat of preserver over a surface that is subject to all weathers, heat and cold, it will protect it, so if a woman wants to keep that schoolgirl complexion all she has to do is paint a good thick coating of this red oak coloured paint on her mug every morning before she goes out, bingo!, no wrinkles ever!
There may of course be a few side effects, there always are in beauty cases, in olden times they used arsenic and lead in cosmetics, the “side effect” was an agonising early death.:shock:
I remember an aunt of mine tried the seven day beauty plan and turned into a frog, she must have been allergic to something in the cream, well she looked like a frog with the huge swollen eyes and puffed up face, but her skin, although bright green in colour, was smooth and shiny, not a wrinkle in sight. She sued them and got a lot of money, she now has her own secluded pond in the Phoenix Park.
Anyway the ladies don’t seem to mind a bit of suffering just to look beautiful do they.
Hi guys just had a note from RJ to say he won’t be coming back to scribbles - he had 6 yrs of it and that is enough. I replied and said we of course understand but still miss him greatly. He may stay on this entire site just not be on scribbles. So you may see him around. Sad for me as RJ and I go back way before scribbles as we started a sort of poetry group that didn’t last too long but it was good whilst it lasted. Cheers
Maybe it was me?
I must have spoilt it?
I wish I knew.
I was very “In Tune” with RJ, I didn’t show it, or reciprocate, except in riddles, well, that’s my job.
perhaps he didn’t get ya either? - you are the riddly diddly widdly man! - give a song spits - we’re still together!!
you’ve spoilt us all and we lurves ya don’t we guys - guys ?? guys?? - where did they all go??
