LATEST MOAN FROM YOU AND ME 2017

I could and probably should have asked but normally, when you go there they approach you and see what your unloading, they all walked off to the side to watch me. Quite harsh/intimidating when your 5 ft 2 and probably the only female who's been there all day. I looked at them a few times to see if they were going to help as the way the bins (they're lorry containers) are set out you have to walk behind them, which is pretty far when your carrying a heavy load. Really ticked me off that they knew I was going to the wrong bin and said nothing until I was getting back in the car and then went off to help someone clearly more able than me. Maybe I should complain..

 

When I am out and about, and I need help, and see some "Men" about , I ask them to come over and help.

 

I weigh 9 stone and am your height and I gave up long ago on thinking hairy armed help will come along. I can now heft over 50 lbs. About 18 months ago I moved a monolith of 5/8 wallboard, the old kind. Took me part of a morning but got it done

I would never ask a man to help me with anything unless he was hired to do. Just how I've learned to cope with life's little challenges

 

Me too

 

I enjoy it too. Moaning is vastly under rated in my opinion. I'm thinking of setting up a business as a professional moaner, I think it might be very successful

 

And give prise when things are done right and helpfull

giving prise is one thing that some people don't do, so please give people prise when things are done right it's not hard and you get respected for it

 

Yes, when younger I could fling a 75 lb bag of corn on my shoulder and walk through two feet of snow to the chicken coop. but now, older, I use the redhead women card, and ask for help. So far no man has turned me down.

 

All together now, "I am woman, I am strong...".

 

I'm taking cod liver oil supplements to help with dodgy knees - they appear to work for me.

I've just trawled the net, a newspaper reported in 2013 that cod liver oil increases the risk of prostate cancer and in 2015 that same newspaper reported that cod liver oil reduces the risk of prostate cancer.

What a load of tosh

 

Maybe But it is only a newspaper report

I would be inclined to look at how those results were arrived at. I wouldn't be content with a newspaper report, I would want to see the actual research paper which arrived at that conclusion. I would want to know their methodology, the number of participants in any trial, what led to those conclusions etc., etc.

A very quick search and it seems there may be a link between high levels of omega-3 in the blood which suggests a link to those who had prostrate cancer. In that quick search I haven't been able to work out what constitutes a *high* level. Nor did the research I was reading briefly about take into account diet or supplements in those with prostrate cancer who did have high levels of omega-3 in their blood.

I would go back to the sage advice passed down the ages: a little of what you fancy does you good; nothing in excess.

Now ... do you eat bacon .... ?
