I gave away some sausages, spicy cumberland and jalepeno flavours. Part of my try before you buy scheme.Once they are addicted to these beauties the prices goes up.

By good deed - can animals be included  ;) ?

Two of my non-productive sows were given a supper of yogurt and sugar puffs (they're off on their final journey tomorrow to reappear as sausages !)


Cheers

I potted on 144 tomato plants that were screaming to get out of their communal pots ... didn't shout at them AND (hopefully) didn't kill them!
I also did the neighbours a favour and necked the cockrels!(Quietly).

Just over a year ago I fell one morning, flat on my back, while I was letting the ducks out. At the time I thought nothing of it but eventually developed pain in my right knee. After the Dr giving me various pain killers I was sent for an MRI scan where it was discovered I had torn my cartilege on the knee. I was asked if I had fallen or had an explanation but couldn't think of one, later on someone reminded me of the fall. Well after months of agony I had to get surgery on that knee. So, I am always now warey when I go on beside the ducks after it's been raining.

This morning when I went to let them out did I not fall again, so my good deed for the day was not to strangle the buggers!!! Not their fault, they carried on without a care in the world. No laughing now!

You're not the only daft one on here ;) ;D ;D

A year past November, being very proud of having built my own house, i was showing my cousin round and not realising it had become very frosty after she had arrived I went out to the decking to trigger the PIR so they could see it in all its glory.  Down I went and have suffered for it since when it is wet and cold.  Talk about pride coming before a fall!  It sure did in my case.  Silly old woman!   :o :o  No good deed involved except not bothering A & E with it although with hindsight I maybe should have ::)

OK you can all laugh now ;)
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age
