Grinch Corner

The best may well be to come @AuntyRach! Thankyou, very well put. To you too...hope 'it' all goes well!

 

Do you mean you aren't a pheasant plucker's son ?

My experience of physio is the complete opposite. It was fantastic for me when I ripped my rotator cuff after sliding down a frozen hill on my front. The girl looked about 15, [which was slightly disconcerting!] but she couldn't have been better. I could barely move my arm more than a few inches in any direction. Within a few months of religiously doing the exercises, I had as much functionality as I was ever going to get, and was able to do most things that I could do in the past. My arm's still achy at times, so some things are trickier than in the past, but I even did the exercises while out on hills, so that I could get the best result. I chipped a bit of bone off as well, but it's remained in place, so that didn't affect anything.

Hopefully no problems with the dinner here today @AuntyRach - but no pressure as it's just me and my girls, so no forced celebrations either. We wouldn't be bothered what food there was, so it'll be fine. Eric and Ernie on the telly too
Enjoy it whatever is going on - and tomorrow, maybe some normality.....

 

We don't do a lot for Christmas - don't do presents but we do have lights and decorations.
My grandchildren were down at the weekend and we took them around the estate to see all the lights. They loved them and enthused about every one. I felt very old jaded and cynical.

on another tack, the osteopath has helped a lot with my trapped (inflamed) nerve. I had to pay though but he had time to treat me as a whole person not just a neck! Too much lifting things I shouldn't in the garden!!

 

Whilst others will be burning their turkey, eating too many chocolates and forced to wear a paper hat… I’ll be in work this afternoon doing none of the above (ok I’m not against the eating chocolate part).

Merry Grinch-mas!

 

May the day pass peacefully for you @AuntyRach

 

A sad lack of "rotten turkey" posts on X this morning, in fact there's lots of people asking where the rotten turkey posts are ...

I did find a woman who was "really angry" that she'd found a caterpillar in her cauliflower, so her Christmas cauliflower cheese was ruined. Instead of just putting the harmless creature outside and washing the cauliflower, she's going to take it back to the shop and moan at them.
