Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

I have always wanted an antique spinning wheel, not to use it but just look at and admire. My friend had always promised me that one day she would buy me one, which she did a few years ago and it turned out to be not quite what she thought she’d bought. It was in fact a miniature. If anyone has seen the advert where a woman buys a bargain three piece suite which turns out to be dolls house furniture they’ll get the gist. Anyway when I went round this morning there stood a full size version, an absolutely wonderful surprise, not even my birthday.

That is a very good friend you have there.

She is and I’m very lucky to have found her. We’ve been together since junior school.

Friends you have had that long are precious. The ones that you mightn’t have seen in a while but the conversation flows effortlessly whenever you meet up. You were always meant to be friends, pre-destined in every way.

The least you can do is try to use it .What a wonderful thought ! Unless she thought it was a miniature and bought you another to match !
 
Well the weekend of supreme disappointment has arrived. My daughter gets married on Saturday and I’ve already explained that I can’t attend due to looking after Kay. I also have a season ticket which I’ve only been able to use a couple of times for similar reasons and will therefore miss the game on Sunday against the RS. But as I’ve said before, it’s all about priorities. I just hope that both days go really well……

Keep your pecker up Pete , you will be in both places in spirit , alive afterwards and with the woman you love . I hope your daughter has a wonderful wedding and that your team win . Stay strong that man .
 
Good morning all on this fine day here .I hope all are well and had a great night . I am in a good place about the game ,expecting it to kick start the end of the season for them ,so just relaxed about it but hoping Moyesy can stir the lads to win our first derby at HD . I am not a defeatist just a realist but it would be lovely to win .I was a bit disappointed with Illy last time out and had the feeling his mind was somewhere else ,hopefully I am totally wrong and he stays .
Have a fantastic day all .COYB

I meant to mention the Michael Ward story ,it is the difference between chance and probability .A friend of mine explained ,the probability is almost nil but if you knew they would both be on the bridge that day ,then if you knew the time ,then if you knew which side and that they would bump into someone from Ireland the chance would be almost certain .
