    I remember being interviewed by a copper about 5 years ago regarding something I had witnessed. The room had a metal strip running horizontally around it at about the 3.5 ft level. I thought it was a place for clipping paper but when I asked the 250 pound fellow doing the interview said, "No, that is an alarm strip. If someone tried to grab me and throw me around, I'd hit it and help would rush in." So I looked at it and then at him. And then asked him how much he weighed. :biggrin: At first he looked puzzled until he saw my grin. We both had a good laugh!

      Good morning Logan. Getting about, thank you. Jaw is tender but no pain, eating soft food on the other side. Still taking antibiotics. Sutures out on Monday.
      :yay:

            Wish I didn't have to go shopping:sad:...it's the worse job in the world and I absolutely hate it. Could do online but judging by some of my Dad's stuff the use by dates can be very short. One pkt of 4 yoghurts , for example, had two days shelf life left. I did complain to Sainsbury's and they did reimburse the money, but sadly it's happens quite frequently.
            Hubs will happily do the weekly shop if for some reason I can't help with it, but generally we do all tasks together.

            ;)...share your secret @Logan please, how have you got out of it??
            Then again because I hate it so much I think I would feel guilty making hubs do it all by himself, especially on a cold wet winters day!! I think!!:heehee:

              We don't bother with valentine's cards anymore, don't need them to say how much we love each other.

                I don't drive so i used to go with him but when we had our first puppy it was a excuse not to go, i didn't really need to anyway. I just give him a list and he will go. We tried the online shopping but you never get the special offers.

                  I did get a very mushy card... not sure if I like that.. :scratch:

                  Had a horrendous morning with traffic. Had to travel on the busiest highway in Ontario then through Toronto to get to the liquidators to pick up my auction lots. Then reverse the drive and go further west to meet a client who forgot that we were meeting. I had rushed like crazy to get there on time! But she called me and I waited a bit longer and she did arrive. Then she spent a lot of time going through the samples - this place has over 50K samples of fabrics alone and then all the furniture, light fixtures, cabinet hardware etc. Trying to keep her focused was really tough. But now I am home having a cuppa and some cheese on crackers as my breakfast and lunch. Still have to unload the van with all of my goodies but will do that a little later. Need to sit and relax a few minutes :phew:

                  And yes, I don't like shopping so it is like nails on a chalkboard having to go through the tedious fabric selection part of my work :doh:

                    Glad that it's going ok, I've had to have teeth out and had to rinse my mouth with salty water. Never have to have sutures though.

                    Had to have a wisdom tooth out when i was 15. There wasn't enough room for it in my mouth. The dentist couldn't do it so i had to go to a small hospital at malvern to have it out because i had to have anaesthetic. Afterwards it felt as if my whole mouth was swollen and i couldn't eat much.

                      Yes, @Victoria I know where you're coming from. I had all four molars out at the hospital when I was young as they had impacted. The swelling was awful and then my jawline turned black and blue.

                        No I don't drive anymore, the roads are so scary and it's not just the amount of traffic either or even drunk drivers...it's now drugged and uninsured drivers that are added to the frightening mix nowadays. I stopped a good few years ago ,I only drove with our children a couple of times...couldn't handle the responsibility.

                              I also had all four of my wisdom teeth removed, I was due to have them done a couple of weeks before our wedding , I thank God that I rescheduled it for a month after....I looked like a very bruised and greedy Hamster!! I was in hospital for 3 days following the surgery and had to take a couple of weeks off work as it definitely wasn't a good look for a hair and beauty salon.. it would've scared the clients away!!!:roflol:
