I happened to visit the British Lung Foundation arm of HealthUnlocked whilst following leads, when I noticed the title 'Humour' amongst their topics? So I've just spend all the morning reading - and often commenting/replying to some of their members - but mostly I've spent the hours laughing.
Goodness knows we often have little to laugh about in life, but it's only now I've stopped reading/laughing at their posts that I realise I've hardly thought about my aches and pains for almost all the time I've been on there!
This leads me to think 'Wouldn't it be fun for us Lymphies to have a similar page....?.
Any jokes (printable), funnies and comments will be (hopefully) laughed-at by all....
I arrived at a posh Dancing school for a competition - quite a famous one to dancing people - in the North West (England). It was like a posh club with a large dance floor.
We'd go ready dressed & made up for battle on the dance floor.
On arriving, we entered a wide entrance corridor. I noticed, straight ahead, that welcome sign on a door - LADIES. Duly noted.
But then, the way into the main hall was through a door on the left and we went to the right to our table.
That time came - to check my make-up before the 'show' started.
I left the hall, going through the door, saw the loo straight opposite but the door was open - went through the small entrance and another door to a large area with a row of wash basins and mirrors along left wall and individual cubicals at the far end. 'What a lovely dressing room / loo' - I thought.
As I was checking my appearance in the mirror, I saw a man, in a ballroom suit, leave a cubicle.
He was in the wrong loos !
So I decided I would be calm and mature about this. Say nothing, pretend I hadn't noticed him and allow him to realise his mistake and leave, - gracefully.
He then approached the mirror next to mine and said ever so gently and politely - " Am I in the wrong room? "
Then - suddenly - the penny dropped.
I had this picture flash across my mind from when we arrived. The LADIES sign was on the door facing me - straight ahead
And
We had turned left through a door to main hall - so the Ladies was on the LEFT leaving the Hall !!
If was the GENTS with the front door open so I didn't see the sign -
When I first came to Australia my daughter was 8 and started a new school and was told to ‘bring a plate’ so I’d just bought a nice new tea set and gave her a spare one in case someone forgot theirs! You were supposed to fill the plate with food!! How embarrassing- poor kid never lived it down ! 😂😂😂
Have you ever tried Lymph Laughter Yoga? Was at the last Lipoedema conference and one of the workshops was Laughter Yoga and Chair Yoga. I decided to go for the later. Little did I know that the rooms were next to each other. Whilst the trainer was seriously trying to do a session for chair Yoga this eventually became futile as everyone couldn’t help but join in with the hysterical laughter from the room next door. Very infectious indeed and once you start you just can’t stop.🤣🤣🤣🤣. Laughing encourages your thorotic duct and good for lymph flow. If there was a way of doing the biggest Laughter Yoga on video link.. that could be super fun...! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 keep on laughing 👍🏽🤣🤣🤣 and don’t forget to wear a panty liner..!!! 😜
As soon as I began reading your message, panty liners sprang to mind! 😂👍 Laughter Chair Yoga sounds good to me? But can they supply chairs with straps to stop us falling off? There must be a market out there....somewhere...? 😂🤣😂🤞
It looks a real hoot! 😂 I couldn't get any sound on the first short video for some reason, but I hope others can, and if they can attend any sessions I'm sure it will be hugely beneficial to do so. Not only to benefit from the aforementioned benefits, but also for the social benefits - strangers are friends we haven't met yet? 😊🙌

I've got a Visa from blf to make a visit to you. I'm your distant cousin as I have said hello here when I joined. I also moonlight in diabetes and weightloss. I'm not bragging but I'm eligible to join quite a few more of these groups.
No wonder I can't get a doctor's appointment - you're taking them all!! That's just being greedy! 😉
You sound as if you know as much Welsh as I do? But there again, there's no Welsh blood in me whatsoever, and so far it's been traced back to the 1700's! I can count to 10, and ask to go to the toilet (otherwise Teacher wouldn't let us go!!), but that's as far as 3 years of lessons got me! 🙄
