Thanks LM - but at 42 and with 43 fast approaching, I think I just make it.


According to Collins Dictionary, this is "... usually considered to occur approximately between the ages of 40 and 60".

Yes mee too DJKQ. I haven't posted on this thread because I couldn't think of anything I wanted and then I read your post and I thought yes, spot on. I wan't things money can't buy.

Yes, philosophers make that point about just about everything...but - alas - I am no philosopher...I like the simple life and live by simple rules which come from deep within...my instincts...my intuition etc...it is those which tell me what is happy/sad, good/evil, black/white, simple/complex etc. etc. Call me a simpleton.


The only things that truly matter in life are those that money cannot buy. But I am quite certain you know that already.

Yeah but having said all that, my fabulous motorbike and more importantly riding it, makes me so very happy.

Life ain't about the destination it's about the journey.

Yeah right, but money will help prevent you having to walk the entire length.


Now, back to bed.

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
