Yes I have heard how painful , a few years ago the machine broke when my wife was squashed in it .This was the last free one she said at 67 so from now on I will gladly pay but I suppose the risk has lessened or they would carry on.
That reminds me ,many years ago we played a cup tie at Southampton in the mid eighties and I went by coach with two lads who worked for the council and could get us on anyway we went down and won and on the way back we stopped at at police club in Birmingham and all got merrily legless after many times of asking the driver dragged/carried us all out and brought us back to Lower Lane police station ,as were the times then we all -police as well -climbed into our cars and drove home .

I don't think there's been a bigger change to UK culture over the last 40 years than drink driving Blue. Youngsters today would be horrified by what happened back then.
It wasn't just widespread. It was normal.
It makes you think ,firstly why and secondly how are we all still here ? Although I was once told I am a better driver when I have had a few .
We stumbled upon a TV series Bulletproof -a comedy cop series ,we are starting the third series later. Quite refreshingly different although how they can shoot 8/10 in the target and then miss almost every shot in a chase beats me.
Being married to a Finn we have some special discussions ,today's was what is the difference between soaking wet drenched and wringing wet ?

No apology needed Blue. The mammogram found a very small growth that was removed and the cancer eradicated. She lived another 7 years and died of a completely unrelated cause.
Her getting cancer completely changed our outlook on life and we crammed a hell of a lot into those 7 years that we probably wouldn't have.

Thats kinda why I have/do still find it hard to get over Nikki mate. During her final 18 months at home, we talked about all the stuff we would do once she was strong enough, cos we both understood that she would be vulnerable for the rest of her life.
To have that all lobbed in the bin in a few short hours is sommet I still get sad/angry/self pitied about. Not all the time, but its never far away. And its the hardest thing to explain to folk, unless they have experienced it as well. Ironically, me ex wife is the only person who gets it, unfortunately. (Her 2nd husband was wiped out in a motorbike crash, blimey, must be 15 years ago now).
My best mate said to me soon after she left us. "I buried my 96 year old Mum 2 months ago Roydo, I know how you feel". No mate, that aint remotely the same thing I was thinking as he said it.

I count myself fortunate that we got to do so many things in a short space of time, plus I do have the memories of course. But I too feel cheated mate. We were 2 years into our new life down here and things were going really well despite covid. She had a job she really liked and that I was able to help her with, freeing up more time to do the things we wanted to do. Not a day goes by that I don't think about what we might have been doing today if Cal were still here.
And I totally get your last sentence Mark. I was talking to my niece when I was up for her daughters funeral recently, and she said to me I understand what you're going through now Al. My first thought was, no you don't. I'm not saying her hurt is any less than mine, as I'm sure it isn't. But it is very different.

So was kicking the crap out of your kids lol and caning, yikes and bullying apprentices was acceptable. We have changed for the better in a lot of ways. If only social media wasn't a thing, it brings the worst out in people as they can't get a clip round the ear.
Just had a nice chuck and brisket burger for tea, done on the griddle pan, which I spent a lot of time on, seasoning it. I see what you meant about free range chicken tasting better as well freddo, seemed so much more tender.

Thats it, exactly. I said at the time, that the loss Niks Mum felt was different to mine. Not stronger, or deeper, but different. Same as your Niece and her daughter.
But at the root of it all, folk say stuff with a good heart and intention. So thats nice I think. Its a very personal thing, and I think its pretty cool that we can be open about this stuff. Bottled up does no one any good. I have been chronically open about it with family and friends. Probs made some of them uncomfortable, but hey.

I often have a tear or two in my eye when I'm posting about Cal. Not gong to beat myself up about it. In fact it does you good
