chrisp65 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Just saw two gulls in a park doing the little ground tamping dance, trying to drum up worms. I'd have far more respect for gulls if they did this more often, rather than just scrounging chips and bits of pasty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubbing garlic on your feet will make your breath smell like garlic. And eating asparagus makes your piss smell like asparagus.

BOF Posted February 9, 2017 Moderator Share Posted February 9, 2017 And Berocca makes your wee illuminous. Which is mildly amusing if you're on a night out and you go to the far end of the piss trough in the pub and watch the heads lift in amazement as they see this alien wee flowing past them 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Been for a ultrasound scan today to rule out a few things before my doctor diagnosis me with IBS, I know they just say IBS for a lot of things these days. Anyway everything was perfect apart from I have mild fatty liver. As soon as he told me he said it was nothing to worry about and a bit of exercise and a slight improvement in my diet would sort it out. I had some blood tests the other day and I'm due to have a CT scan just to rule out everything but this fatty liver thing has concerned me. He kept saying there was really nothing to worry about and that even he had it but it's made me think a little. I eat a lot and my diet is not great, I also don't do much exercise apart from at work but is that exercise? And my drinking has come down a lot so I'm not concerned about that.

I think it's quite good to have these things every now and again. Your doctor's told you about something minor, which can be easily fixed but it's still a nice reminder to look after yourself a little better If I got told everything was fantastic every time I had a checkup, I'd start thinking I was invincible.

True. Knowing this it now gives me an excuse to change my diet slightly and maybe exercise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted February 9, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) As I have refused to read anything Villa connected until we win again to stop sinking into a depression and get annoyed by fellow VT'ers bickering, I have been reading the Things That Piss You off but Shouldn't and Paddy's Things that cheer you up thread's from the beginning. I am really enjoying it but I find it spooky the sheer number of posters who were huge contributors racking up masses of posts who have now just dropped off the face of the earth. I wonder how many have just got bored or been insulted so walked away but more disturbingly have died and no one really knows. Kind of sad and poignant, looking at the last posts by some there is no clue they are about to disappear.

And we have lost some great posters. Hopefully some of those people will return to post again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The family does have a burial plot at Witton cemetery, but I don't think its been used in about 50 years I have family buried in witton cemetery. The other year my grandad went for a walk up there to try and find some of them but he was unsuccessful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troon_villan Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 There's a good chance people still browse the forum without posting anything. I barely posted anything the second half of last year but I was still on most days browsing as I have been for about 7 years now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
