I don’t feel like smiling but you joke is funny .

I had a bust up at the bank because I was mistreated by a member of staff.

My Father was a Rottweiler in his time so I became a mini me of Dad and lodged a complaint.

Now I feel flat as a Pancake .

If your dad was a Rottweiler, then you must be a terrier. And as for being as flat as a pancake, you stood up for yourself and made a complaint, well done!. If you had walked out having done nothing that's when you should feel as flat as a pancake. X

I was thinking as the mouse did not die , “it must be suspicious lies “.

I'm sorry you had a problem at the bank Roukaya, but you have done great putting in a complaint, your "Rottweiler" Dad would have been proud! We need to stand up for ourselves, well done and don't feel flat, stand tall and hold your head high, you should be proud of yourself :) xx

I hope you are well.

I have anxiety issues and having to put in a formal complaint took it out of me .

I hope you are managing in this heat .

But I have learnt in life we have to be a fighter otherwise things will never change .

I am glad you stood up for yourself, otherwise give some people an inch , and they will take a foot. I am a firm believer in the quote "We do teach people how to treat us. As woman we are raised to be more subservient. Be nice, don't raise your voice, and if you do you become the B word.

Very kind words

I would often say of Dad

You are a Hell raiser and a Trailblazer.

It's not been too bad Barry, thank you. Worst bit was one of the managers getting too close to me not wearing a mask in the office where there was no room to step back, even though she had been party to the conversation I had with the store manager about feeling nervous that people would do exactly that! I told my manager and I think she has been "told" cos she is wearing a mask and not talking to me ! ;) Haha!

Otherwise, it's been really nice to see my customers and for others to have said that they had noticed I hadn't been around for a while and they were pleased I was ok!

They all say "I bet you would rather still be in your garden!", they know me so well!

Have you been ok my city friend? :) xx

Yes, my darling, today was so hot I just went for a 20 minute walk and that was murder. I dont know why, but when it's hot in the UK it's so different to abroad, after 20 minutes I was soaked !. Sorry you didn't really need to know that lol, anyway you take care, are you off this weekend ? 🙂xx

leo60 in reply to Bazzak

It's the humidity I just can't take it either!

Yes! I am off until Tuesday! Yay!! It's my birthday on Monday (60! Eughhhhh!) Am meeting up with an old friend on Saturday whom I haven't spoken to in the flesh for probs about 3 years! Sunday the kids (minus my youngest who is in Sydney (worryingly) (can you do brackets within brackets?) have arranged something for me, I know not what, but hope it involves some shade !! Monday, I will probably apply for my bus pass ;) xx

Tarmac and concrete, whenever I have been in the tropics, an open window at night cools home down, but here too many roads and houses. Also lots of countries build their homes to account for the rising and setting sun. They have the sun rising over the bedrooms, as you get up and set over the living area, as you will be leaving soon for bed. We also wear little tight bits of clothing often in polyester type mixes. If I wear the floaty cotton I would have worn when staying with my father, get odd looks, but is much better in the heat. Do not get me started on gents who wear nylon socks with their sandals. You do the cleaning and ironing before 6 am if possible and lie on bed from 11 am until 3 pm unless you can afford air conditioning (we could not).

Dear Bazzak (and Roukaya),

Yes 'Caught In A Trap.... (with) No Way Out'.... your giving me a Suspicious Mind😊. Still, at least, we 'All Belong Together'.🤗

Talking of Music Jokes, one from a few years ago now.... The Gallagher Brothers decide to give up Music, and open a Café instead. A Customer comes in and Orders the 'Soup Of The Day'. A few minutes later this Customer, calls the Brothers over, to complain. "This Soup is AWFUL, absolutely Dreadful- the WORST that I have ever had". At which point, the Gallagher's burst into song...."Well...You Get a Roll With it an Roll with it........"😬.

One to make Roukaya smile...... A man rushes into, the Bank, Barges his way to the Front and Demands "I demand a Cheque Book, you Silly Old Cow" Immediately the Bank Manager is there "How DARE you call, a Member of My Staff 'Names', like that.... Just who the H*ll do you think you Are?" "I" replies the man "am the person who just Won £30,500,000 on the European Lottery". The Manager looks at him, before replying "and this Stupid B*tch is giving you 'Trouble'?"😁 (Not that I personally Condon 'Bad Manners' myself, you understand.)

I started, a whole 'Load Of', Sir Cliff Richard jokes- a couple of months ago. They shouldn't be too hard to Find.

Any more Music Jokes, anyone?

Thank you Barry, for a moment there you had me worried.

Have a good day, it was very hot yesterday to be walking on hard, hot pavements.

Sitting on the side of your swimming pool with your feet in lovely clear cool water would have been a better idea probably.

Have a wonderful day, best wishes, Tim.

Sad to here about your pet’s demise.

But I cannot fathom why people keep pet mice or rats or any animals: cats; dogs, etc... Everytime I’ve gone into a home where pets are the smell is revolting to say the least and have always refused to eat or drink even though it looks clean, but the lingering animal smell is too much for me. I once saw a dog dragging its behind on someone’s carpet it was on that note I never returned. I know pet lovers will disagree, but these are my feelings about animals in the home - no thanks!

Mice are lovely little furry creatures... I appreciate them eating up the crumbs and muesli I drop - but I don't like them eating my cheese.

I use a big bowl for my fruit - and keep it on top of a biscuit tin, so they (hopefully) cannot get at my bananas!

How strange and sad that the same thing happened to me.

There was a,( Blue Moon) out but I had my (Blue Suede Shoes) on my feet dancing to (From a Jack to a King). I looked over at Elvis my pet mouse and saw he was, (Caught in a Trap). I cried, (I'll never Let You Go,(Little Darlin). Lawd (Help Me Make It Through The Night). Elvis is gone and (I'm so Lonesome I Could Cry). I sucked it as best as possible and bade Elvis to, (Follow That Dream) and find a (Pocket Full of Rainbows). My last words were. "I release you to, (That Mansion in the Sky) and (The Green Green Grass of Home").👀
