The Random Thoughts Thread

Thank you Sparkly ^^ 

Really kind of you x

It seems he had requested some weeks ago that his account be deleted. If I hear from him, I'll let you know, but I think it's highly unlikely.

I hope so we were messaging and it was really fun and funny ^^

I saw his account was deleted

I saw that - I don't know what happened, but maybe he'll return if and when he's ready

We can hope so. 

Does anyone know what happened to Def Leepard and if he's ok?

I saw his account was deleted

I miss his posts and his fun humour :) 

I really struggled with this as well lol

I asked the community manager and she said it's personal choice you can write as little or as much as you like

Or nothing at all if you prefer :) 

If we do I'm hoping it will be a really positive experience and a fresh start ^^

I don't understand, sorry

Moving to a farm sounds lovely

I'm wondering what to write in my profile

I'll send Lily over to protect you when you walk out XD she can be very aggressive when she has to be ;) 

I would rather throw away everything I have and start again, than face the dread of walking out of my post-homeless bed-sit block, with more than I can carry in one clean trip..

Moving

Could be moving house soon too a farm which would be nice because I really like farms and the country but it makes me anxious at the same time

I have been wondering whether my grandparents had to pay for treatment from a doctor when my parents were children, before the NHS. As my parents are no longer alive I googled it and concluded they did. In fact I found a very long article about health services. Having read that and how little was known I have concluded it is no wonder very little was known in my childhood about autism. I also realized how far health treatment has come.

Did it come? I ordered a new microwave but my brother had to do something with the plug fuse for me, it didn't work but returning things are so irritating and he was kind enough to fix it for me.

We were shopping for a new tumble dryer some years ago and I came across the most awesomely finished emerald green 4 slice toaster.

I already owned a really nice Russel Hobbs toaster that was gifted to me by Borland Software some years back so after admiring the colour of the thing I was about to move on when I noticed the twin dials legended "Toast Colour" and calibrated very clearly with values between 1 and six set directly above the controls as it should be in any well engineered machine.

It's about 14 years old now, and still looks as shiny and unmarked as the day it came home with me, despite having put in at least 4 years of use as the main toaster over it's life.

Why do I put myself through the hell of trying to reorganise my room? Currently it's more of a mess than it was before

I'm watching the ongoing destruction of a LOT of food production right now, keeping my ear to the ground as far as both what the tin foil hat people are saying, and also what people in the real world are doing. 

I've noticed three people talking about pulling their spuds out of the garden this week, and also eaten some of my mates LOVELY little tomatoes.

I'm thinking, perhaps I should start a "grow your own food" thread, and try and get some help in figuring out when to plant and what to plant, and also exchange a bit of "how to" information.  

Being knowledgeable & self reliant worked extremely well for me during Covid, I endured neither the virus nor the treatment.. I'm not discounting luck playing a part in that, but knowledge and self reliance seems to breed "luck". 

 Yep! 

I was sold on the soft close... 

I'm ignoring the child lock until it becomes a problem... 

Elaborate argument: Soft close..

Pegg: I’ll take six!
