When i worked un a care home i went in to help my last little lady into bed.
I sat on her bed and she said "oh, love, i hope you've got a lovely husband to look after you wnen you get home.

"No Annie" i said "i can't find anyone to have me,"

She looked me up and down and said "Well, you have let yourself go". blush

😲
Cheeky mare!

(Is that rude or non-PC? I never know these days. It could be anti-equine.)

Aww, welcome back MissAdventure. I'm so pleased to see you posting again.

My Dad remarked once when he saw me in a pair of Hot Pants (back in the 70s when I was a teenager) "Oh that reminds me, I must plant some rhubarb!"

I wasn't impressed!!!!

Welcome back MissAdventure. I always loved reading your posts and am so glad you feel well enough to start posting again.

Slightly more seriously my Granny once looked at me all dressed up and grudgingly said to me, 'Well at least you've got one good leg.' She wouldn't tell me which one it was!!

Aveline Fri 01-May-26 18:21:10

2 legs? I dream of 2 legs!!

MissAdventure Fri 01-May-26 17:59:49

I'm waiting for someone to come in amd say "you shoild be grateful to have 2 legs".

I have one big leg and one small.
How is that?

Well, I have one shorter than the other .....

Oh yes. Fluid retention is a bugger. I retain gallons (by the looks of me!)

Yes, me too.

Welcome back MissA! It’s great to see you posting again. I thought you were back one day last week. I was delighted to see your name on a thread I was reading. Until I realised it was a a thread from years ago that had been resurrected.

But you’re here for real now 🎉 🎉

Yes, tiny little thing, i am.
I'm convinced its fluid @(my excuse and I'm sticking to it!)

Tizliz Fri 01-May-26 17:45:54

Glad you are feeling well enough to post, but if you can keep the bowel problems to a minimum 😳

Aveline Fri 01-May-26 17:43:27

Well hello there 👋. Great to see your tiny self back again (well you said you were 14 stone!)

MissAdventure Fri 01-May-26 17:40:47

I never found my watering can, grannygravy, despite advice to stand outside and act like a plant grin
