Bar's Open

#1 Post by D-Rider » Thu Aug 02, 2012 12:06 am

Three things to celebrate
  • 31st July .... got through a whole year without being assaulted again. Those bits of me that got a bit degraded at the time seem to be relatively stable and don't appear to be getting any worse at present.

    1st August .... 31st Wedding Anniversary - yes Joy's held up for another year and the doctors are pleased with how she's responded to the treatment. Hopefully she'll continue to do OK for as long as is possible.

    Third thing .... I've booked a holiday ! (we've not got round to having one for quite a few years - so that will be good)


Please drink to the good things.




on the other hand, I think my car is knackered .... need to investigate further but it doesn't look good

Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Just read the threads on the issues we're drinking to. I don't know what to say Andy. You've had it rough yet you appear to keep yourself from despairing. Very admirable, what's your secret?

Happy anniversary and a drink to you and Mrs D-Rider's health.
