“Wassamatta with you?” Graham asked.
“Wind. Bad wind. Wind of the gut-wrenching, ouch! ouch! ouch! variety.”
“Oh. You’ve got wind, then.”
“That’s about it.”
“What shall you do about it?”
“Windeeze. And then, when I’ve cleared some of it, I shall sip a nice tissanne of peppermint.”
“Good. Get a move on, then, ‘cos we’ve got to go to B&Q.”
And that was the extent of my sympathy ration for the day. Can’t really complain, of course, because I’ve drawn very heavily on my account at the Bank of Loving Sympathy recently.
I shall get a hug and an ‘oh, you poor old thing’ sometime this evening, though, you see if I don’t.
Meantime, peppermint tea, anyone?
peppermint is one flavor I don’t care for now days. Seems it doesn’t like me.
ryc: Were you referring to the lawyer’s advice?
Anyone familiar with gravatar? Does it only work if you are ‘signed in’?
I’ll send you a hug from here, John. But you must promise not to have an unexpected windburst when I do!
I love little red and white peppermint candies. The tea is very nice too.
Can’t help ya there – Bonnie. I haven’t gotten that far yet.
Yum, thanks! I could do with a bit of wind reduction myself.
Yes, Bonnie, I thought your report of the lawyer’s advice seemed pretty good.
Gravatars only work if you are logged in on the same ID as that which you used to create the photo/picture icon. I think you were using BLB… something for your gravatar?
Now I feel cheated once again…no Metatone to be had in the States. Apparently a UK only phenomenon.
Could do with a bit of it, to be honest, having only recently exited this side of the same ‘flu you endured, John.
pfft!
You have my sincere sympathy on the knife pain windies, happens to me a lot – brown bread, rice, pasta…
Was all that the side effects of the Metatone doing some very early spring cleaning?
You’ll probably be back on track by tomorrow… And Graham humming a happy DIY worthy tune, I’m sure
Aw, poor John….and what did you eat? Musta been the Metatone.
No, not the Metatone. I’d put the blame on my elevated chocolate intake but it seems not. Graham’s just been talking with his mother and it seems there’s a widespread bug…
At least it’s a bit comforting to know that’s what’s wrong and also that in your misery there is some company. However, something I know you’d rather do without. As wouldn’t we all?
