Worra Clever Twellsy!

Great photies, Hedgers. Mr Bee very much enjoys taking pics with his mobile 'phone - I do try, and have snapped quite a few of my digits (not literally ‘snapped’).

The Fiesta has had its MOT. Our mechanic (who has saved us hundreds of pounds, over the years) is an Ashington Lad, with a very funny sense of humour. Over a cuppa, he has had us larfing like drains at his stories of medical problems and some truly awful medical interventions. Really. I shan’t share the stories (you’d have to have been here) but we are now fully informed as to the relative sizes of his gonads, amongst other stuff. He knows that I’m a retired nurse and that the only embarrassment for me is the dreadful treatment he has endured, both from the NHS and the private sector.

Oh Soo

That takes me back to February 2010 when Mr C was rushed into Orsepiddle with a serious problem in the gonads

The Nurses kept asking what size they were normally…

Liberates another Slammer

Didn’t mean to bring back memories, Carinthia xx

We now know that our mechanic has one the size ovvan sultana and the other the size of a Jaffa orange, so we could answer for him :wink:

Slammers are the way to go, methinks.

Dinner, chez bee, will be vegetable sambar, roasted kale and rice.

Don’t worry, Soo. He was delighted to be ‘Golden Balls’ on the ward - the Nurses were forming an orderly queue to inspect them …

After 2 lots of Emergency Surgery they visited from 3 wards distant, to try to work out how to dress them… :wink::mask:

Sounds good. Dinner here is likely to be non-existent, I think. We are both still stuffed having taken POM out for lunch at her local, as we do every Saturday. I had chilli beef pie (topped with sweet potato mash and vintage cheddar) followed by Eton mess cheesecake with ice cream. Or Eaton mess cheesecake if you are to believe the menu. Eton/Eaton, who cares, it was Eaten.

I have nothing to contribute to a discussion on gonads, size or otherwise. Not at the moment anyway but I’ll work on it.

We are going to have a fry-up (bacon and eggs and fried mushrooms and fried tomatoes, anyway) with bread which will be coming out of the oven in about four minutes. It’s one of those meals which sounds really easy and is in fact a complete logistical bitch using every pan in the place and causing more grease than I care to think about in the washing-up…

… but I can attest to the fact that - eggs aside, in my case - it is Bloody Gorgeous.

No-ones inner schoolchild should ever be allowed to diminish to the point that it is possible, never mind necessary, to revive it.

That’s what I think anyway, an’ I’ll set my big brother on you if you say different.
