I think we should all change our profile photos to the one I have. Inserting the image here for your convenience.

Snorty has more hair on his wrist than his chest. What an oddity like a platypus with no talent or personality.

I have no idea what the origin of my arthritis is, but it’s no laughing matter. My arthritis seems to have appeared and deteriorated very quickly. I’m counting the days until my hip replacement in mid-June. I’m also seeing the ortho about my shoulder next week and will likely get a cortisone shot. This should tide me over until my referral for surgery comes through to the arthritis centre and teaching hospital downtown. In the meantime, I’ve found the Cdn. Arthritis Society to be a very helpful resource.

Also, I’ve had a bad head cold turned chest cold for the past 10 days (coughing my guts out) and have been able to get my ass up out of bed fan.

I'm still coughing 3 weeks later, pissed off and knackered but you just carry on don't you.

You could remove from your food all dairy products from cows.
Also make a sirup with black radish (raphanus niger)
make onion decoction or onion sirup. Yellow onion if your blood group is A
or garlic maceration.
If you want more precise information, don't hesitate to ask. Like Obelix I fell in herbs and plants remedies when I was little thanks to my family.
Yes I know..... onion and garlic....... and MIL won't like it But these old remedies are effective.
Bon courage

I have asthma (since I was a child) so chest colds really take it out of me and it's not unusual I end up in hospital. One reason why fan's continual play acting at being sick in bed really sticks in my craw.

The nig.. I mean black radish is great. We usually cut the top part away, scoop out the radish a bit and make a hole at the bottom. Then we have warm honey slowly running through the radish (so that the honey and radish liquid mixes) into a cup and drink it slowly.

we are expected snow on Sunday

Going from 67F (19C) to 28F (-2C)in the next 8 hours, Mother Nature is really having some fun. I just want it to be Spring and to plant things outside. Taking bets on wether Marie's peas she planted make it. Also we all know fan if she is sick, she will milk it for as long as she can, while her minions wait on her hand and foot.

Sophie Conran's rural idyll of a garden in Wiltshire

Inspired by happy childhood memories, designer Sophie Conran is gradually transforming her Wiltshire garden into a rural idyll, where elegant ornamental borders, gloriously overstuffed beds and a bountiful kitchen garden supply the handsome Georgian house with cut flowers and fresh produce

the oddity here is the amount of rain coupled by ferocious winds, I miss the gentle transitions of seasons.

We can have three seasons in one day, the mid west storms of yesterday will arrive here tonight.

Apart from fan visiting Dublin to drop a ton of cash on porcelain for Captain high pants ,will she ever do a proper respectable tour and show us her Irish roots?
After all it may be the Irish connection that is enabling her to pretend she lives full time in France.

I don’t think we know which county fan hails from.

I've always had the impression that she's less than proud of her Irish connection. She seems to consider herself English and French, so I have no idea why she'd get an Irish passport, rather than a French one, to continue living and working in France. I know she was entitled to the Irish passport, but surely, as her mother is French, she qualified for a French one. Anyways, I do hope she doesn't ever do a video tour of Ireland, or if she does, that she originates from the other end of the island.

I might try that, I eat far too much dairy and anything containing garlic is ok with me.

I’ve always been fit, played basketball till I couldn’t anymore, boxed, yoga and gym. I’ve hit my mid 60’s and I now have severe arthritis, knees are bone on bone so my pain level is high, the only exercise I can do now is swimming which is still very painful.

A lot of my arthritis is genetic but I also blame it on basketball, I was playing at a very high level and after some games I felt very beaten up. I also played comp squash which is not great for your knees when you’re nearly 6 feet tall.

Anyway I feel like I did all the right things to set me up for my later years but it hasn’t worked out that way. Knee replacements next and I still have arthritic spine , neck, feet and hands lol

Btw I’m not feeling sorry for myself because things could be worse but I will say arthritis sucks. And I really enjoyed my years playing basketball so it was not wasted.

I feel you I too am almost 6 ft tall, didn't play sports but very active in the garden, walking dogs , kayaking and swimming. Anti inflammatory drugs like meloxicam are helpful. A good chiropractor, and physical therapy help. Also a percussion gun for sore muscles. Arthritis is a witch, but I think we still need to stay active. Yoga and tai chi are my new go to. fan is not active, has a crap diet, no muscle tone and has all the time in the world to change things.... But I doubt she can see past all the crap she is drowning in.

Awwwww, our poor princess is feel a bit ropey, or did she mean to say dopey? Maybe she’ll see us by Sunday.

Here’s a thought. They travelled back from the SoF on Monday & Tuesday and arrived back Tuesday evening. Filmed being pretend sick during part of Wednesday. There were no guests this weekend and they simply buggered off again somewhere.

How did you find out that there were no paying sycophants there this weekend? Enquiring minds want to know!
