evening folks....
high pitch shop/house/car alarms, that's what gets me these days... they're so ear splitting...
i wouldn't mind but my hearing is deteriorating and the noise still gets to me...
maybe it's a menopausal thing eh.... but where does that leave poor ol' smudger... lol..

PM, I reckon my hearing went the same way as my hair,Away!!

I liked the music they were playing, as it was all 60s stuff
Its just that it was so LOUD!!!

BYW, PM, I even get hot flushes now as well

This getting old aint much fun Eh!
Smudger,

ooooh smudger, you're turning into a right old woman...
only joking darling...
maybe there is a male menopause, surely your hormones must take a dive around at some stage... just that we can never tell with you lot...
have a drink luv... cheers to the hot flushes.... lol..

hello everyone, weather here in scotland is yuk! rainy cloudy dark think we in for a good thunder storm? feels more like a winters day than the 1st of june. as for the men haveing hormones some do get moody once a month and some have what they call midlife crisis chatting up dolly birds acting like they where in their twentys again xd

hi all.xxxDoris..do you mean to tell me that some men do actualy act their age!i thought they all acted as if they were in their twenties all the time!!!!
mine thinks he's peter pan,i'm sure of it.

Ah! Ive got it now!!

Is a case of "the mind remaining active" and the body thats "nackered"

Oh! I forgot to tell you, It cant be "stress" coz according to that shrink I had to go and see, Im not stressed Im just Nuts"

No only joking, he reckons that my probs are due to depression, ever since my accident good news there, he said he will attend court, if asked, in my favour Eh!

Right then, who can remeber, what we all used to do before we started coming on line here
Smudger,

Well,you got me there smudger!!i really can't remember what i used to do before i found l/d,and then h2g2!!i suppose i used to watch more tv,but i don't know how,cos there's nothing on much worth watching.....and i know that hasn't changed!!!I used to go out less then as well,cos didn't have the wheelchair!!!
I think it would be a good idea to have as much medical evidence as possible when your case is heard,after all,it is your medical condition that they'll want to hear about,and how the accident has affected you .anyway,lets hope it's soon over now.
by thy the way,iv'e always been told that where there's a will there's a wayi'm sure sheryl will agree with me!!xx

Hi Smurfles, Well finding this site was a Godsend for me , I got this new PC for my birthday last year from Mk2 and her sons

Then after a wee while I went onto the net! and I found this site by accident, reading a story about the Pacific Glory (a tanker that sank off the coast of Cornwall) Ah! the whole story is on my home page, go and have a look, if youve got the time

Im not quite in the wheelchair yet, but heading that way need a stick to walk, and even then not very far

Anyway, I kept coming back to this site, and telling stories and stuff, then Shazz from got me to write a "Snippet" every week
so that keeps me interested every week.

If you do go and have a look at my page, let me know what you think
Smudger,

hi folks...
sal, more like where there's a will there's a relative... lol..
well before all this interactive wotsit i used to be more active so i was able to get out n about more, so like you both said this thing is a god send...

Hi! PM, I noticed your on line
Hows things with you???
Sal is not on line yet, as you can see i left her a message
Smudger,

good morning everyone..It's nice to be in here today,i had problems for some strange reason yesterday,and couldn't access the site!!Try as i might i can't recall how i used to spend my time before h2,and i have been unable to work for nine years almost,so it wasn't a case of been more mobile!!!!!Maybe my time was more occupied because the grandchildren were younger then,but it passes so quickly!!
I keep promising myself i'll read your page smudger,I must get round to it one day soon.

Hello everyone, hope things are fine with you all? sal yes come to think of it r acts like a schoolboy most of the time xd

Hi Folks, Glad to see this thread kept going pop into AWOL and keep that going as well (just for me, )

I like watching the old TV shows where you dont see computers or mobile phones being used How did they catch the bad guys in them days, with out all these modern methods!
Smudger,

hi smudger.i don't 'know how we managed without the things we have nowadays.My daughters friend dissappeared from home in 1988,and there was no sign of her anywhere.A body was found three years later,but the police couldn't identify it.Last year,my daughters friends mother gave a sample of dna,and it proved to be her.It has taken all the new technology in forensic medicine before she could finally be identified.
It's a sad story,but it shows how far we have come with everything ..

Ah! sad but true Sal, the progress of all this DNA stuff has just rocketed in the past few years.

I made another CD yesterday, and it got me thinking, just how far it has all come, even in my life time

I mean, I was brought up with vynil records, then LPs, then the cassette came on the market, along with the eight track, (just before it) Then came the CD

I would never had thought that I would be able to make my very own CDs in my lifetime, on a computer

Remember when computers had black screens with green text on them, and those first digital watches, where you had to press a button on the side to read the time
Smudger,

It was the same when the video's came along,as you know I.m an Elvis fan,and to have all his movies on video is great who would have thought it,i can watch him anytime,and now we have DVD's
what did i do before this maybe had early nights with hubby(you know what I mean)LOL
