Your Day (apart from gardening) - what took place?

I've always felt that golf courses were waiting rooms for cemetaries....

I've got some errands to run and I think I shall spend the rest of the day havjng a cuppa and nibbling on Christmas cake

 

Reminds me of bit I read in a golf magazine. At the height of the craze to introduce a huge flood of 'elf n' safety regulations, a young female Trading Standards inspector was visiting either Wentworth or Sunningdale (I can't remember which), to check on something in the kitchen. Whilst she was there she looked out of the window. She turned to the club secretary and said pointing to the bunkers around the eighteenth green.
"Those will have to be fenced off."

Excuse me, we're all waiting somewhere at some point, I can think of worse places to wait.
As golf is excellent exercise, it's usually a long wait, compared with some.

 

This afternoon went to see keith and did a bit of die cutting for his cards.

Came back and walked the boys, then had dinner. Walked the boys again, i had berry. Managed to trip over the kirb and bruised and grazzed my knees and hands. I was a bit worried about my right knee because i fractured it last year in april, but it's fine.

I shouldn't be let out on my own.

 

@Logan sorry to hear you hurt yourself and glad you bounced instead of crunched.

 

Yes thank you.

 

Sorry to hear about your fall.

For bruises, we swear by SBC's Arnica gel. We've used it for about twenty years whenever required.
My wife buys it from one of the shopping channels. 500mls is about twenty quid, but she waits for it to come on promotion.

 

Lordy, I haven't heard of arnica in nesrly 50 years! My old Auntie had it and would dole out these little, round, white pills if I had a bruise. Didn't seem to work for hickeys.... only turtle necks worked for those

 

Thanks, i have some arnica rub for muscle strain and bruises, that i've put on. But thanks.

 

Yes it's been around for a long time. Can buy it as pills for our dogs if they've pulled a muscle, i don't know if it works.
As @Doghouse Riley has said, buy it in a gell in big bottles from QVC shopping channel.

 

I spent yesterday finishing of our smallest bedroom ceiling that I have had to lower and plaster board, has the original ceiling had a slight belly to it, looks great now, fitted new ceiling light and pull cord for light in the loft also new loft hatch.
So it looks ok when we put it up for sale.

 

Sounds like you've been hard at it Ian...just before xmas hubby fitted steps to our loft...it was a nightmare keep dragging ladders in
