Best wishes and hopefully speedy recoveries to both John and goldy.

Not sure when I'll get to another away due to work, so keep me updated on here what the score is and I can transfer some wedge to shawsy for the fund.

Lab you are so right mate, you have to live for today ive been told time after time by the doctors your fucked, but still fight on,last week at 64 I dug out a huge tree root by hand,i will never give up.

Re: irish john aka beckton john.

Don't forget to chill as well though and get your boy to help you do some of the heavy stuff.

I caught my dad cutting down a 40 foot high tree in his garden recently and the silly sod is 79 and
is currently in pieces awaiting a hip replacement.
After I finished it and took it all to the tip for him, I went back a week later and the stupid sod had done like you and dug the rest out without waiting for me to do it!!

It's a shame the snowflakes of today weren't made of the stern stuff that East Londoners were clearly made of back in the day.

Some colleagues of mine attended to this man

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-46083703

Some people are saying that he was a silly bugger for going on his roof at 102 to try and fix his aerial.
I maintain that it was exactly that attitude that made him live to 102

Hope for a full recovery for both these old boys. When anyone hears about the court case of the brave Spurs lad, please post it up, some may want to "Say Hello" at the court case, or after!!
