A Census Chuckle

A Census Taker arrived at an elderly ladys door.

She answered all his question except she refused to tell him her age.

'But you must' he insisted.

'Did Miss Mary Hill and her sister Miss joan Hill tell you what age they are? she asked.

'Yes!' he exclaimed.

'Well I'm the same age as them' she said.

So he wrote on the form.......' As Old as the Hills'

Hey there Stephen, it is very quiet again tonight.
Missed your presence yesterday, it was even quieter than it's been today.
Loved the chuckles by the way, they made my night.

Nobody loves me

Everybody hates me

Think I'll go and eat worms

Short fat juicy ones

Long skinny winny ones

See how they wriggle and squirm

Stephen I'm here and thats a rhyme that the little ones either love or hate.

Have been to Marlborough today, what a beautiful day it was too. Had a nice walk around and as it was market day got some fresh food, 3 different cheeses and some tomatoes from the Isle of Wight. They are lovely and actually taste like tomatoes.

Off to see my Mum and Dad tomorrow as I haven't seen them for ages what with illness from lillteM and not wanting to pass anything on to them, but Mum was 83 today. Hope we can take them out will have to see how frail they are.

No news on my friends hubby, but will call her tomorrow as she probably has enough letting all his sisters and a brother know.

Take care all and hopefully Marilyn is well on her way by now

Thanks Jean, think I'll have toast with my home made jam, I'll leave the jam out in case anybody wants any.

Did you put your wellies on Shelly?

Stephen, that's why Marilyn came home............ no gin left over there.

Loved the jokes, the short fat visit to the doctors made me laugh the most.

The name 'Hannah' is the same whether it's read from the left or the right.

Hope you have a nice day with your parents today Linda.

I'm going to visit my aunt today, didn't get the chance to see her last week.

What a lovely morning here, bright and sunny.

My daffodils are putting on a great show now. Hundreds of them around the gardens. I love them. Easy to care for. LOL.

Busy day ahead again.

Keep well, keep safe, keep smiling.

Morning all
What a lot were around early
Thanks Pauline, getting hard to see Mum as she has early stages of dementia and Dad has heart problems, but he has always been a difficult man. And as I don't drive I have to rely on hubby taking me, an hour there and an hour back, so you can't just pop in. Still as I said it was Mum's birthday yesterday and Dad's is 21 st April so they aren't doing too bad.

Have a good day everyone

Will try to get back on later.

The accountants at my place of work are having an early breakfast seminar about the budget. Hopefully they'll be some bacon rolls left over for me!

It's Harry Houdini's 137th birthday today! Google said so!
Those words you talked about are called palindromes, Dermot. A useless learnt when I was 10! Racecar is a clever one.

Hi everyone

I had a lovely day at Portsmouth except my ear started up again.giving me a headache, I am due at the surgery late this afternoon so we will see if it is blocked ear that is causing all this.
The weather was lovely in Portsmouth it cost us £12,50 return and took 1 .15 minutes.
we sat on the bench overlooking the harour for an hour watching the Isle of Wight and Gosport ferries coming in. then we had a fish and chip dinner and walked alone the front another rest then onto the shopping Mall back again to the Cafe on the peak of the docks where the ships come out. and the place was crowded then I heard a ships horn and out came HMS Collington (I think that was what it was called ) people cheered and waves the sailors were all standing to attention on board
one sailor( having a coffeee )stood up and started sending signals as the ship left. I think it must have abeen a special ship. The harbour had lots of sail boats.all with coloured masts . I* was dead tired when I got home at 7 oclock. but it had been a nice day.
I have just waved my sister off. she has gone home back to Hampstead. she has her histroical society meeting to night.

Have a good day weather is nice here.

STOP! Don't read this.

Just wondered - is there any gadget to measure my semi-imbecilic mental alacrity on this bright warm afternoon - in my shorts for the first time this year, sitting out with a mug of tea, Chelsea bun, listening to the radio, having survived another 'Woman's Hour' broadcast?

Wouldn't wonder a bit if I fell into a slumber later - so, keep the noise down please.

Shhhh folks, Dermots overdone the sunshine, and is now having a nap.
Be careful you don't frighten the sun away, wearing your shorts this early in the year.
Talk about " Mad Dogs and English Men go out in the Midday Sun " , but does that apply to an Irish Man, I wonder. LOL
