  • Not erased.

    You know, I thought that I had long forgotten this, but no, today it came back.

    This afternoon I was feeding the seagulls, I live 30 miles from the sea, I don't know where the birds come from, but I remember reading that some seagulls never even see the sea.

    My first job was in the signal box at Brighton, just outside the station, up high, big sliding windows all around and I do remember that one of my first jobs was to keep them clean.

    I enjoyed feeding the gulls as they swooped down and grabbed the pieces of bread that I threw to them, I was young, 14 years old, not that I can use that as an excuse, but one day I discovered that I could use a bit of cotton to tie little paper propellers to the pieces of bread.

    Yes, the gulls still grabbed at the bread and flew on with little propellers trailing in their wake.

    I tried to make up for it by walking to the shop and buying a full loaf, I stood in the cold and fed it all to them.

    It didn't make me feel any better.

  • GOOD MENOPAUSAL QUESTION...

    Q: How many women with MENOPAUSE does it take to change a light bulb?

    Woman's Answer: One! ONLY ONE!!!! And do you know WHY? Because no one else in this house knows HOW to change a light bulb! They don't even know that the bulb is BURNED OUT!! They would sit in the dark for THREE DAYS before they figured it out. And, once they figured it out, they wouldn't be able to find the #&%!* light bulbs despite the fact that they've been in the SAME CABINET for the past 17 YEARS! But if they did, by some miracle of God, actually find them, 2 DAYS LATER, the chair they dragged to stand on to change the STUPID light bulb would STILL BE IN THE SAME SPOT!!!!! AND UNDERNEATH IT WOULD BE THE WRAPPER THE FREAKING LIGHT BULBS CAME IN!!! BECAUSE NO ONE EVER PICKS UP OR CARRIES OUT THE GARBAGE!!!! IT'S A WONDER WE HAVEN'T ALL SUFFOCATED FROM THE PILES OF GARBAGE THAT ARE A FOOT DEEP THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE HOUSE!! IT WOULD TAKE AN ARMY TO CLEAN THIS PLACE! AND DON'T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON WHO CHANGES THE TOILET PAPER ROLL !!

    I'm sorry. What was the question ?
