Plaintive starvin’ tseep at the Gusly window?

TFD is busy in the kitchen and there is a wonderful smell of beef & Guinness casserole wafting this way. Yum.

And speaking of meals, I was idly reading the destructions of TFD’s joint supplement earlier. They cheerfully state that they are ‘best taken at least one hour after your last meal’. Do most people even know when they’ve eaten their last meal? And if you do know you have, are you likely to be worried about the state of your joints?

that would be Yorkshire pudding & roast potatoes, to my mind

( this will probably attract that starvin’ Sparrer again. It’ll wear its beak out with all the tappitying, pore fing)

Set an alarm for one hour after I finish eating is the only way I would ever manage that.

I suppose the idea is that it wants you to take them on a not-full stomach.

Thing is, I had visions of a condemned man in his prison cell, requesting steak & chips or summat, and then taking his joint supplement just as he was led to the gallows.

Seemed a bit, well, pointless.

On behalf of 3Wells: the doggie she’s been knitting, with it’s overcoat, which her friend completed for her, she was having some trouble with the pattern (understandable when your eyesight ain’t what it might be!)

He’s a fine dog, though not a patch, of course, on the DDD. Who’s the lucky recipient, again?

There are two ways your flying career can end:

You can take off knowing it’s going to be your last flight.
You can take off not knowing it’s going to be your last flight.

Ah. Yes. But “most recent” is difficult and people might not understand it…

I suspect they mean “last meal of the day”, i.e. they want it on an emptied stomach and active while you’re asleep.

In other words, it’s pretty-much ambiguous as it stands. Or at least, open to more than one interpretation.

He is for a girl who survived a brain cancer as a child and will be in residential care for life

She adores dogs and everything ought to be purple hence the colour of doggie’s coat and wellies

B did most of the jacket as I was having real trouble following the pattern

Knitting wee toys like that is keeping my mind working = next on the list is a hippo!

I fear that may actually be true.

Then they should SAY so. I mean, every meal is one’s last, innit. For as long as eight hours on rare and deplorable occasions.

I suppose excessive stiffness may make fitting the coffin difficult. Even then, I’d say that was a definite SEP.
