I love this way of describing different friends. After spending time with radiators I feel energised, but some people can just be suckers. After time with them you feel completely drained.
When asked ‘how are you’ I just don’t want to explain the whole PMR thing any more. I’d rather just say ‘trying hard not to be a sucker!!
Try and have positive days, everybody
Or when asked how you feel you can always say ‘above ground, thanks’
I used to work with a Secretary who’d come into my office to tell me her tale of woe, eventually l got cute & started talking into my phone headset & have ‘conversations’ with no one when ever I saw her coming down the corridor! 😂
I will steal your reply of “above ground, thanks” if you don’t mind, wonderful, love it. 😂
Ooooooo, a baby rant!!!! I love it!!!!
Strange thing is the suckers are often the most persistent! I think it's a predatory animal instinct!!!! A freezing cold force field is the order of the day for these! Can hardly sprint away can we! The radiators are beauties & so lifting. Mustn't overdo our stuff then eh! ATB
Yes thanks for ideas.
"Above ground" that's brilliant 
I like the idea of suckers and radiators, the latter are by far the best. Not sure I can think of many suckers.
I think "Above ground" is going to get used from now on.
