Kerch ...have you got room for  cooking programmes on TV  , especially blokes cooking .  ?

As I may have mentioned 900 times  , I don't work every day so I'm cooking myself a full English one morning last week ,  I know I'll turn on the kitchen TV , theres about 200 channels  ...all cooking :innocent .   Now cooking your own grub is one thing , watching  everyone else cooking grub is pain in the aristotle.   

  So theres one bloke cooking something so I switch over ...... a woman and a bloke cooking ...  switch over , theres actually six  blokes behind a counter , one cooking , the others grinning inanely at the camera ....switch over ,  theres people cooking stuff with a couple of chefs  picking flies out of their efforts with one unknown H list celebrity in tears .      

 
Therapy recommendation: do not switch on TV, put some music on in its place -you'll feel the benefits in no time :)  
I would but I cannot afford  the socket to plug the Dansette record player into,so,I can listen and appreciate the subtle colour nuances of my 45 + year old Black sabbath LP

 
celing tile dust


About a year ago I had to go to A&E to have a fleck of ceiling tile removed from between my eyeball and eye-lid. If all the things I never considered I should be wearing safety specs for.... putting ceiling tiles back was one of them!

Corbyn! :(

My JC's a star though he does keep bringing me stuff he finds on site that "might come in useful one day" as I have the space. Well after 35 years of being mates I no longer have the space! :)

Movember - Grow your facial hair for charity.

I loved Page 3! Grew up with a healthy appreciation of the female form and it didn't turn me into Harvey Weinstein! My ideal paper would be The Times...with Page 3  for the  jubblies! :)

Encouraging beards and women to keep covered up, sorry but you don't have to be a genius to see the agenda here.
