    In Georgia they would say “This bus don’t go to Aintree”.

    @Number Six: Oops. My comment should have read: did they fire the coach driver? Be well my friend.

    Never heard of Braintree and I’m from the UK.

    I’ve heard of Aintree. I’m not that stupid.

    Gweedo – It’s legal here !!! – Murray said, about 23 hours ago

    I guess a bike gives you experience at negotiating with other wheeled vehicles.-He is NOT at the house these days. I have not seen the lady outside when I walk by to ask about him. I had mentioned some weeks back that he was absent. They may not STOP you, but could they ‘drag you away’ ? See what I dood ? -I’m certainly “after” it ! Would also like charm, intellect and some similarity of a lifestyle to go with THAT ! -That is DAV, as you said. I support it. Years back they gave me a nudge to let… “Our national service officers are skilled at navigating the system to get you all the benefits you are entitled to”. I threw the letter away the first time figuring, who am I to be so entitled when there are people who have been grievously damaged in the course of warfare ? 4 yrs later that same letter came again and this time I called the number and was on the line with a very caring Viet Nam combat vet who gently told me what to do. How I live now is the difference between comfortable and just barely scraping by. -If the animals, I don’t have, liked you so much that they wanted to stay, they would be yours with my compliments !-I bet it gets an eyeful too ! -I thought you might. You would be surprised at what comes off your tongue once you start combing it. There is a film that one does not notice until it is worked. All I’m sain, is, give it a try.-“Dog And Butterfly” -Heart-I have to go back out and do some more weeding in the yard. The ground is very pliable from all your rain I have been getting.-A very Happy Weddingsday to you too !__________________________________________________

    Like I said, I don’t regret not learning to ride a bike. It’s not one of my priorities. I love bus rides even though the bus fares are pricey. Being an adult sucks! I’ve only been one for 2 years. I don’t want any lectures, Cappers. I know there are worse things to come. -Yes, I did see what you did! Clever. I hope Wiley returns soon.-Don’t we all? I’ve avoided relationships because I’m scared of getting hurt. Wish people would just understand and accept that I’m happy being single. I don’t tell them how they should live their lives.-What you’ve just told me about the DAV is none of my business but I’m glad your happy and managing. I’m not as open about my personal life as you are. I don’t really want to be forced to either. That’s the beauty of being online. No one can force you to open up.-Awww. Really? You would give your non-existent animals to me? We could maybe take turns with them. One week with you and one week with me. You would be the best neighbour ever.-I had as tongue cleaner at the end of my toothbrush but I never used it. I wonder if using the bristles on your toothbrush works just as well?-Thanks for your song request! -It was raining heavily last night around 8:30pm. I loved hearing the sound of it on the windows.-One more day before it’s Finally Friday! But for now, I hope your Thursday sees you well.

    You are not going to believe this, Cappers.

    My Dad found my blood donor badge!

    It was literally right next to me on the floor near my computer and I didn’t even see it!

    I knew this would happen. I get an email saying they are going to send me a replacement and then my old one turns up!

    Braintree, Massachussets was named after the one in England but its real claim to fame is as the birthplace of John Adams and John Quincy Adams. (You know, of all of the U.S. presidents, the one who would sniff the most at being presented with Andy Capp would be John Adams. Whereas Grant or Andrew Jackson might well sense a kindred spirit in him…….)

    Braintree is in Essex, not too far from Chelmsford. I was stationed at the USAF base in Weathersfield from 1957-1959 and it was just a few miles from Braintree.
