43c, amazing!

A very pleasant sunny morning here in north London. I'm just hoping it stays this way and that I get to work and get back home again without being soaked as I was by yesterday's rain.

It seems a nice day here, hazy sun, light wind.
Just been to Clatterbridge for my 8 week check up on my new Hip joint, all is fine, next check up is March 2016.
Had brekkie while we were there, was a bit early for appointment.

Hello all

Why does little Harriet have such an inferioriity complex?

Presumably "polyamorous" is the new "promiscuous"

I've been trying to krul, but I have become hopelessly behind
Nice to see the wee Thready humming!

Has he set off for it in his Descartes?

OMG, don't I know it My sleep patterns are still out of whack due to BB LF addiction from blooming years ago!

Oh God, Christian's just entering the House on catch-up and if he's a "Rapper", I'm an award winning swimmer and I can prove it coz I've got my medal for lifesaving, where's his proof eh?
Has he told any of them that he is actually a medical student, if that is what "Biomedical Sciences" mean these days?
Jade has started to remind me of Helen.
Chloe is this year;s Charlotte I think. I see we had the same thought about Eileen and Pete Burns! Great minds and all that!

Hi Eddy.:+))))))))))))

I was very pleased, had X-Rays taken of the Hip, the scar was looked at, he wanted to see i could do certain movements, no problem,.
In fact when i went in to see the feller, he said, when did you have it done, 12 months ago, he was surprised i could walk so well.

Yep – and like television it has both Greek and Latin etymological origins.

I do love when you send me off on a tangent with your postings, now I've got to get my head around this---> Late 14c., "of Greece or its people," from Greek (n.). Earlier Gregeis (c. 1200), from Old French Gregois; also Greekish (Old English Grecisc). From 1540s as "of the Greek language;" 1550s as "of the Eastern Church." From 1888 as "of Greek-letter fraternities." In venery, "anal," by 1970. Greek fire "inflammable substance invented 7c. by Callinicus of Heliopolis and used by the Byzantines (who in the Middle Ages were known as 'Greeks')" is from c. 1400, earlier Grickisce fure (c. 1200). Greek gift is from "Æneid," II.49: "timeo Danaos et dona ferentes." ...et cetera, as usual

The strange thing is, i'm trying to teach myself how to walk again without a stick and a limp.
I've forgotten, isn't that strange?

Doesn't time fly, on my next check-up i will have had it 12 months.

Isnt polyamorous what we all used to do as teenagers? Date lots of people at once, then you might "go steady" with one of them, and then you might get engaged and then married?
These days if somebody buys you a drink you are as good as married and stuck with them forever
Mind you, in my day nobody was doing the deed with each other. Certainly not before the going steady or engaged part. (with the exception of my friend "yo-yo-knickers" who in hindsight was terribly misjudged and not a trollop, just polywhatsit )

I think wotsername, er, Jade, does the deed with everyone! It's perfectly OK, if you give it a Greco/Latin name. Where are the rolly eyed smilies when you need them?? Of course, she could just be all talk...
Surely the average young man would be put off by such behaviour? Unless he just wants to get a free legover?

Does anyone actually have one of these apps? Why are they turning down money from votes yet people think they cant afford live feed?


Is that Kieron's real voice or an Emma Willis impression?

Did you go on to the Latin. It quotes Life of Brian:

Old English latin, from Latin Latinus "belonging to Latium," the region of Italy around Rome, possibly from PIE root *stela- "to spread, extend," with a sense of "flat country" (as opposed to the mountainous district of the Sabines), or from a prehistoric non-IE language. The Latin adjective also was used of the Roman language and people.

Centurion: What's this, then? "People called Romanes they go the house?"
Brian: It ... it says, "Romans, go home."
Centurion [thrashing him like a schoolboy]: No, it doesn't. 'Go home?' This is motion towards. Isn't it, boy?
Brian: Ah ... ah, dative, sir! Ahh! No, not dative! Not the dative, sir! No! Ah! Oh, the ... accusative! Domum, sir! Ah! Oooh! Ah!
Centurion [pulling him by the ear]: Except that domum takes the ...?
Brian: The locative, sir!
[Monty Python, "Life of Brian"]

Used as a designation for "people whose languages descend from Latin" (1856), hence Latin America (1862). The Latin Quarter (French Quartier latin) of Paris, on the south (left) bank of the Seine, was the site of university buildings in the Middle Ages, hence the place where Latin was spoken. The surname Latimer, Lattimore, etc. is from Vulgar Latin latimarus, from Latin latinarius "interpreter," literally "a speaker of Latin." "What Latin was to the learned, that their tongue was to laymen; hence latino was used for any dialect, even Arabic and the language of birds ...."

I wish they had the HM’s pictures at the top of the page.

I haven’t managed to put names to the faces yet. Irish lass seems to see the world through Irish lass’s eyes, a view which few others share.

I have had to give up on it. The sound keeps blaring, whispering, and cutting out completely.

Back to the footshavings....
