No chance !!! I am not risking the limited number I have left.

Gremlinertia

But it's like a mix n' match when we go!.

Ted_YNWA

have you ever tried going around the twist the "wrong way".

Great experience

Gremlinertia

Was just going around the twist as it happens, boards offline again. :mad: I gets lonely at work, don't leave me boards!.

Ted_YNWA

Cloudflare issues here too.

Gremlinertia

The number 522 is giving me a tic!

Ted_YNWA

What about other numbers?

Gremlinertia

Gremlinertia

Gremlinertia

Ted_YNWA

What sort of time do you call this to come strolling in?! :pac:

Ted_YNWA

Sorry Miss, won't happen again.

Dog ate my alarm clock

Gremlinertia

Oh i used to love being woken up by doglet, good times. Though sometimes not exactly welcome it always brought a grin

Ted_YNWA

Would love to get dog, but only small ish yard & wouldn't be fair to leave him on own during day.

Gremlinertia

Aye, i haven't had a dog since as it would be irresponsible to think i'd find one that was as lazy and homebody as her. Hopefully in a few years.

Ted_YNWA

Newfoundlands are cool, but need a mansion to house them.

Gremlinertia

I'd probably get a smallish one again. Depends on what clicks in the shelter though..

StripedBoxers

I, too, would love a dog, no chance of getting one anytime soon though. Pity.

I would love a Samoyed, but they are expensive apparently and they also need a lot of space and exercise as they are quite energetic.

Slowed down at the right time so You finished soon?

I was just hanging out the laundry there and saw the biggest insect (beetle), it was fricking huge. :eek: I've never seen anything like it in size before.

Gremlinertia

There's some sizable critters out there. i sometimes find these huge brown lads, they have kinda hook like feet so if you put it on your hand it 'hooks' on..

Just about finished now thank feck, paperwork to close off etc but all good..

The fella outside had hook like feet/legs. Oh Jesus I got a serious dose of the shivers when I saw him. Absolutely massive. I have a phobia of insects/spiders though, unfortunately for me its all part of my anxiety. If one comes near me at all I break out in a sweat. I can barely move sometimes if one comes near me. Wish I didn't have a phobia of them.

That's good, good rest when you get home

Gremlinertia

Think they are called weevils, i get the shivers from some spiders but mostly i'm ok, just aswell, grew up in an old house on a farm with old sheds.

Just Googled those there, looks like the one I saw alright. Don't even get me started on spiders. One ran across the kitchen last week, was the size of a small mouse. I couldn't move til he was dead. I can't even describe the fear/panic that goes through me when they get near me. I don't know what caused it either, always been this way since I was a kid. Its horrible.

Gremlinertia

I feel for you. I get into a panic about some things and it paralyses me sometimes it's so bad.

In other news, it's sunny, your washing will be dry and fresh smelling in no time.. Hmm, shorts for me i wonder?.

Yeah its the same for me. Given they are a hell of a lot smaller than I am I really don't have anything to panic about lol.

Yeah true, love getting the clothes dry outside. Have another load which I'll hopefully get out this afternoon for a few hours too. Its the one good thing about summer for me is getting the clothes dry on the line. Not sure why or what it is but it really satisfies me for some reason lol.

Meant to be good and warm today so I'd say shorts are a good bet

Gremlinertia

That's if i make it back out of bed while it's still bright out
