I and I am sure everyone who has been part of this forum for any length of time has no issue with you or any of your posts which are always well balanced. I agree, Avril is a good guy. What is frustrating is the fact that the posts are now deleted, so I haven't got a clue what you are all going on about. Late to the party, as usual.🤣 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's being reported that there are many protests in Russia against the invasion of Ukraine, so not all are in agreement. Your neighbour could be one of those.

Had there been a rogue post, it would have absolutely correctly been removed anyway (more likely removed because of responding to certain posters who prompted removal of replies to their own roguery though). 🥴 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thick skinned and not easily offended, I've been insulted by better. It's like water off a duck's back, so I'm interested as to what was said.

Now you mention it.Don't know any flats in the East end now with a real fire.And knowing the area like I do,not many houses with balconies,possibly the bigger ones opposite Wanstead flats.That's my Sherlock Holmes bit for the day. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed yesterday as I had a really busy day in Middlesbrough calling on my customers convenience stores. On Wednesday being 65 I was invited for a Aorta Abdominal Anuerism scan which thankfully showed no aneurism. It is currently 7°C and sunny while I sit outside Pauline's hairdresser's waiting for her to come out. Prayers 🙏 for the good people of Ukraine. Take care and stay safe everyone 😷. Graham.

Josy1953 Posted February 25, 2022 #31993 Share Posted February 25, 2022 (edited) We decided that we would go out to lunch today to celebrate that this is the first Friday for over a year that I have been home for lunch on a Friday. We went to near enough to home to walk and really enjoyed the walking and the food. I had forgotten how many "oldies" go out for lunch on Friday. Is this Stokie thing or do the rest of you find lots of older people out for lunch on Fridays ? To add to the excitement of the day I am going to have my glasses adjusted later so that they don't keep falling my face.

zap99 Posted February 25, 2022 #31994 Share Posted February 25, 2022 As you all post pictures of your lunch, I thought why not. Unfortunately I remembered a bit late. 1 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eddie99 Posted February 25, 2022 #31995 Share Posted February 25, 2022 It’s turned out quite a nice day, though still that piercing cold wind. We did lots of prep work, so are all set for next week. Considered lunching out but decided to give it a miss as we have Italian delivered on a Friday, courtesy of a Xmas present subscription and a firm called Nonna Tonda, who I may have mentioned before? If not, I recommend them. Have a look at their website for details. I do hope our mods are able to resolve matters here. Just like real life, one wrong ‘un can have a disproportionate affect on the many. Have a lovely rest of the afternoon. Here’s some of our sunshine for you to borrow 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sarah1974 Posted February 25, 2022 #31997 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Am I too late to join this party?! I have taken a break from here during the pandemic - partly because I had to continue to work and partly because I really miss the excitement and cruise posts / questions. I have not caught up on all pages - I'd be here forever!! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest ccpm Posted February 25, 2022 #31999 Share Posted February 25, 2022 This oldie would lunch out on any day and had planned to do so today but sadly the non award winning charity where I went to a meeting had of all things provided sandwiches as the agenda was very long. Hope you enjoyed your lunch out Josey I'm feeling robbed so may have to get a pan on the hob tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
