Good bye answerbank

Since Naomi will not give me the ****ing key I have decided to follow Jesus and be a Christian just like Theland. I am ashamed of my past history here so I'm going to devote the time I used to spend on ab to reading the Bible. No question really because I no longer care about what people think. I'll get all my answers from God from now on thank you.

Theland, I've said it before - and I'll say it again. You certainly know how to turn a girl's head, you old rascal!

China, I look more northern than you? Maybe. What does a northerner look like Theland?

Is it a special occasion, China?

Is anyone having problems posting today? I'm typing and having to wait ages for the words to appear.

[Theland]

China - I was more interested in whiffey than Legend, I like whiffey. But I think you are wise and I will heed the warning.

Well China, is it romance in the air? If it is, you must share, for the benefit of of those devoid of such pleasures, like me. The small talk, the racing pulse, the fluttering eyelashes, the blushes, the first kiss ................

CENSORED

Theland puts kettle on, and puts choccy biccies on his one decent plate, and waits for his guests to arrive .... and waits ..... and waits ...... and waits ...... and waits ........

[Theland]

Northerners - the look that appears to be in vogue at the moment, is plunging necklines and lots of cleavage. The bare midriff from last year is still de rigeur, so as the top of the clothes comes down, the bottom goes up.
Anybodys' guess where they will be in 12 months.
Saturday nights are the most daring, and lots of virtually naked women out pubbing and clubbing.

[China Doll]

Just two of my best friends Theland and as beautiful as they are (and the wenches really are actually), the lovely ladies in question aren't my type. But they brought me curry and lots of wine so that was nice. And no, not a special occasion, just a catch up but L felt more like dinner than a bar.

Today has been quite slow Naomi.

[Theland]

At last, somewhere around post number 503, I found the link from China, that had Mibs going weak at the knees, and gasping for a pair of rasberry milkshakes.
For you Mibs.

[China Doll]

Oh dear... Poor Naomi....

[Theland]

My weight continues to creep up. In a desperate attempt to get the reading down on the scales, I have had yet another haircut, and I am now virtually bald all over. I must have lost at least half an ounce doing this.
Now I look even more like a short fat egg!
Will anybody ever love me? Humpty Dumpty maybe?

[China Doll]

He's still in pieces Theland! Besides, lots of people love you.

You could start with cutting the sugar in the tea. Personally, at dinner, i rarely eat carbs and protein. I'll have meat/fish and salad or veggies but no pasta, tatties or rice or owt like it. If you need something else, cous, cous is a good subsitute. Plus, contrary to popular belief, I don't actually drink that much.

[China Doll]

Everytime I see the Hicks thing mentioned I think of Bill Hicks as some sort of guru for positive thought. It's an interesting idea :c)

[Theland]

Some rich philanthropist has stepped in to save Ethel Austin from the receivers. Thank God! A part of our heritage, and affordable fashion and style for the great unwashed like myself.

Just as I packed in smoking, so I am determined to stop eating for a day or two, (starts Monday), and give my belly a severe shock! That, and a few extra sessions on my bike.
I am quite disgusted with myself.
The good news, is although I have the odd bad day regarding the depression, they are few and far between, and altogether I feel more positive about things.

Strange how my life has changed over the last three months. From 12 hour night shifts, to riding a bike and getting concerned about my garden birds, (NOT the garden!), so you could call me a born again 'twitcher.'
Sod it! I like them.

[Theland]

I must look into the Hicks thing so I know what everybody is talking about. Any pointers Luna? In a nutshell?

[China Doll]

Bad idea on the not eating for a couple of days. Your stomach will digest the acid in there and this will be uncomfortable and unhealthy. Far better to just eat veggies and fruit for a couple of days an drink hot lemon water (it's vile) in the morning to give your body a detox.

[China Doll]

OK, Legend is now getting on my tits. He's so insensitive.... It's probably not very nice to deliberately upset people is it?

[China Doll]

Theland don't you dare tell me off for being unchristian, the man is a fool and I'm not apologising and he was being a bully.

Just in case you decided it was better to turn the other cheek ;0)

[Theland]

China, you are a mature and experienced debater, and I think you handled the situation extremely well.
I continued to speak to him, you will have to be the judge of the correctness or otherwise of my approach.
Insensitive he certainly is, but he is no fool and could use his talents constructively rather than upsetting people. It's a shame. I'm sure he would get more out of his exchanges if he was more civil.

I am totally ashamed of myself for my weakness. My 21 year old came in and announced, around midnight, that he was going to the Asda for something or other, and did I want a drink? Yes, i said, a wine and tonic. So, it dutifully arrived, and once I was half way down the bottle, the temptation to smoke became so overwhelming, that i raided my wifes' cigarettes, and smoked four of them whilst engaged in the excahnge with Legend.
What a damned fool I am.
I feel like punching myself.
The wine was the key to unlocking my will power, and now I can hardly describe how bad I feel. The word, "sh1t," is prominent in the forefront of my mind.
I am so weak willed it is disgusting.
This is not only bad for me, but goes against everything I believe in. Slave to sin, slave to a cigarette.
All of that cycling and chewing gum has come to nought, now I have to start over tomorrow, day one again!
How the hell can anybody kick a heroin habit when tobacco has such a hold?
This is so serious, I was so ill five weeks ago, and yet I have succumbed to temptation.
I desperately need a new regime in my life, and I'm bu99ered if I know where to start.
I feel so down. Stupid!

[China Doll]

Oh for goodness sake Theland, you slipped off the wageon and had 4 fags, anyone would have thought you'd gone back on to heroin. Give yourself a break, you slipped up and normal good behaviour will resume today. No need to go in to a self hate spiral... Christ, if I did that everytime I had pizza or pasta for dinner rather than my normal healthy (ish) diet I'd think I was akin to Hitler. Give yourself a break. You've worked out drink is a trigger to your smoking so watch what you drink, that's what we call looking for a positive in a situation, you want to try it sometimes love :c)

As to your continued discussion with the tit head. He is so full of bitterness and hate and scorn and jealousy that he's put himself well out of reach of anyone else. He's a sick man. I honestly believe that and he's currently imploding. I think any efforts on your part to help him will be wasted as he's also not a reasonable or rational person. I know you may feel your christianity compelles you to reach out but would you pet a rabid dog?

[China Doll]

Actually I've changed my mind. You were way too kind to him so now I want to kick him harder to even up the karma. He shouldn't be allowed to get away with bullying people just because he's not a happy chappy.

And he is a fool. A wise person knows when to apologise or when to take on board an opinion that may not be their own and think it over. A fool continues along the same lines even when they know they are wrong, throwing their weight around. His actioins give no evidence to him being anything other than a fool. Fools need kicking, it's good medicine right?

Ahem - Mibs - I think I might need a little lesson in tolerence. (Maybe that curry has over heated me)

[Theland]

Ah China, your words are so comforting and encouraging.
I have a cough today that wasn't there yesterday, so let that be a warning to me, and yes, each minute that passes, is another smoke free moment, and I'll chalk up today as a victory. One lost battle doesn't mean i've lost the war does it?

Oh yes he's a strange one.
He musy hurt some pretty vulnerable people, and if he only realised it, (does he I wonder?), then maybe he could at last alter his tone, if not the substance of his posts.
You need no lessons in tolerance, and my money will be on you if you have the misfortune to confront him.

Grandkids stayed last night, so up early this morning, so I'll pop back to bed for a sleep for an hour, as feeling quite zonked right now.
Oh what a busy house this is. Now sister in law just called, and wants to stay with us. I don't ask why, or where everybody will sleep, somehow, we always find a way through these things.
At one point a few years ago there were eleven of us living here, now that's down to six, with the odd night the sons' girlfriend stays and the grandkids twice a week.
Good job I'm celibate. If i wasn't, we'd have to go in the airing cupboard for a bit of slap and tickle! Now we just use it for towels!
