I did say somewhere it was probably just a splinter.

Technically I suppose Vlad the Impaler just gave his enemies a big splinter!!

Doubting Thomas, do you need to put your hand in his wounds to believe him?

I said 'probably'

I can produce documentary evidence for nearly everything!!

Where's my bloody card then? Huh? Huh? I know, it's in the 'nearly' pile

Or the Walter Mitty pile

Hopefully Thursday will be a better day K

I am having lunch with a good mate! Doctor in the morning, if he has any more crap news I'll just talk over him

Have to admit, thought maybe KeithP is taking the p!ss out of everyone on here, just keep feeding and feeding us all until the rope snaps, but i guess maybe there's no rope to snap?

Just out of interest Mr P, i have and am currently in consultation with Ms Moon regarding our new country of residence, its always a topic which will stir up an argument now and then and could split us up eventually, you just never know?

What went wrong with Mrs P, was it Oz, was it work, was it beer or was it just.............just................women........ .......?

Keith

P.S. Good luck tomorrow with the doc, sooner or later your luck will change, or just buy a double headed coin; no'in your luck your caller will call tails?

Deffo not Oz, we are both happy here. I am not sure if perhaps we brought issues here hoping to fix them? I don't think so but....
I think if I am being honest, we hooked up when she was 21 and I was 34. I suspect I have not changed a lot since then but she has and not in my direction.
We are not arguing or bitter with each other and still care for each other, we just have to figure out if we should still be together.
I would rather be friends apart than going through the motions together.
Make no mistake though, emigration can and will find cracks if there are any, it is not easy.
That is what frustrates me, I thought we had it knocked off!!

On a personal level, I have decided to have a career change. Just not sure what yet. I am bored knocking bits of metal together to make someone money and I found the office job high pressure and ultimately unrewarding.
I don't care about lucre, I just want to be content and feel like my job has a purpose.

Well my old mate, some would say "jammy barsteward" 13 years your younger, but, i bet you have seen it before, i have, young bird older fella, problems arise. Not saying i know your situation but pro's and con's younger women, high maintenance too many years younger, different mentality, the guy goes sideways, the woman moves onwards, so sooner or later the guy is in her rear view mirror?

But hey i am guessing not been there myself, i do not know you, but i like the older mature woman; service my sinfull wishes and they know what levers to pull!

Work, i know what you mean, stress and work not good, and when you hit 40, live to work to buy crap you do not need is very very unhealthy. Me, don't need it, don't spend hours earning shillings to buy it. Spend those hours doing something which will provide a positive memory, rather than a materialistic possession which will eventually be deemed out of date?


Down size, want for little, enjoy the extra hours in the warm climate!


Good luck mate, keep getting it down you, it does help no matter what they say!

Keith

It's a two way street on the relationship. She had the benefit of a stable supportive mature male, well versed in the arts of love!
We have given a lot to each other, maybe it is time for us to give to someone else....
I am having a glass of wine but ffs, don't tell Sallyclaire or I'll get it on Thursday!

WTF? I wish I was that slim!!
