Geoffrey Settle

Sound advice but having popped a codine yesterday I got something like 5 hours sleep instead if 3 to 4 - and I listened to my body today and it said lets try a power walk and blew the misses away she couldn't keep up. 4 weeks ago it was the reverse. Having said that I took to my bed for a cat nap - we were out for 20 mins before she who must be obeyed called time out due to empty tummy and cold weather.

Very true Evil Sid - or the next episode of Pirates of...... replacing Johnny Depp Bring it on

I know Bill and sound advice - but I want to try out my new toy - but first I will ask Mr G my surgeon what I can and can't do. I spoke to my brother last night on the phone and he asked me what I was going to do - stuff like the Snowdonia Zip wire, skiing etc In the background his doctor wife could be heard saying no no no. This is the only advice she has given me in the decades that I have known her.... I'm just wondering if this is a case of GP Fake News

Hi Bill I may be should have followed your advice and that of Nurse Jean aka my wife to take it easy but then you both know that I don't always follow good advice Anyway having reduced my codine intake from 8 per day to two so that I could g o for a number two - I reduced it to zero and a number two came after 6 days 🥵 and a lot of huffing and puffing. Yesterday I went for a walk through Cinnamon Brow Woodland Trust and tripped - the air was blue but a couple of paracetamol killed off the pain. Today I went for a walk along Blackbrook stream embankment and slipped my crutches saved be from hitting the deck. but I had to leave the grass and warm sunshine to crawl down Enfield Park Road pavement stopping every few yards to let the pain wash over me 😬 Well 3 codine later I'm back up feeling fine 🤔 - I wonder what the moral of this tale is ?

The former Mayors Charity Champion has come out of retirement to help me in my Green Campaign. He's having trouble understanding the strict rules of adverts and as a consequence id facing a banning order by Facebook chiefs and can't understand why? Can anyone help him?

I too have taken to jigsaws and exchange them once completed with Steve next door - we go to Sue Cartwrights Watercolour Classes - suspended at the mo but I do find that a jigsaw sharpens up the eye for colour and shapes. They were great when I was in my 14 day house isolation prior to hip operation.

Good stuff well done 😀

Yes I use Zoom for the Warrington Visually Impaired People, Warrington Nature Conservation Forum, arranging my will for will quotes tomorrow, Warrington Bipolar Support Group and before Christmas the Peel Hall Inquiry on Microsoft Teams (also in March for part two), oh and Rule 6 Party for the fight against Peel Hall Development. I just join in by clicking on the link sent out for the meeting and going into the organisers waiting room where they will accept me at the time of meeting start. Its all been straight forward you just have to remember to click on the video button. I do need to learn how to set up a meeting though. Good luck and any issues just google zoom.

It probably uses the cookies from what you have search for Left leg twinging away today but i take it that's because I've been out again walking but also a sign of healing. Not wearing compression stockings my nurse find them difficult to take on and off my legs. I think the danger of blooding clotting has passed so they shouldn't get to my lungs any more fingers crossed.

Previous comments aimed at the advertisers in this thread or am I the only one who can see them?

It's about time to at last do a Will - does anyone have any advice? I've down one zoom meet to see what you get for £47 - you add on VAT straight away for £56. But then the law company says are yes but - need a stronger on so 1. Owner in common - if the remaining spouse re-maries then potentially the kids lose out 2. Power of attorney - dementia - then kids can take over 3. Property Trust - stops government taking all the equity for care fees. £1,295 - 1 and 2 £2,245 - all 3 So lots to learn about and understand. What do you think?

They must be hard up for sales with their cheap rubbish.

Don't buy this rubbish, if you do you''l be sorry.

Thanks Bill our friend Bill told us about that - are there a few spaces at that end - rather than use the big car park - I no longer have the Mayoral car and my driver Geoff moved to France and is having a great time on the red stuff and olives. He was great and we did get into a few scrapes - even made page two of the Warrington Guardian and that was hip related. I'd been giving out awards for the Warrington Disability - he could see that I was knackered and could hardly stand up - Dave T asked for one more photo session for his brave 1 mile swimmers while Geoff went to bring the car closer to the entrance of the swimming baths. He park in one of 7 empty disabled spots and someone took a photo - I picked it up on social media and issued an apology. He still got it in the neck from the office and a yellow card, The lady who reported us was mortified and wrote me an apology - but how was she to know what the situation was. Four years later and I'd still have an issue getting in and out of the car with or without sky hooks. When Priness Anne visited the Eddy Stobbart she said how are and I was my legs are aching - she said is it a Mayoral thing? When she left she wished me luck and said I hope your legs get better - may be I should write to her and let her know. I had visions of her telling her mum about me. Did you know that the dish of Warrington is Curry? Well Gregg James used to have the Mayor from Where? series of 5 questions he would ask a Mayor and try and guess where he was from. Well question five was what is the local dish - I said I'll ask the wife and opened the kitchen door - what are we having for tea - she nearly choked when she knew she was on live radio - We're having Curry
