could have been a croc

Mornin all

I'm glad to say i've never depended on anyone as long as i'm still healthy & capable to earn a living.

What you mean by "rude healthy" rusty dear?

'in rude health' is an idiom - I looked it up and it and this is what was written:

'If someone's in rude health, they are very healthy and look it.'

I guess I'm not so rusty after all - haha!

Whwen cows act like bulls who knows what hormones they've been fed on......I found the clip udderly distasteful - shame on you!

and possibly when leaving ones local may indeed be well oiled

thanks for the explanation rusty..sorry i mean Robert.

think i've got to keep up with it then not to get rusty

so what's your secret eh?

My secret is that I am allergic to work........all jobs should have a government health warning 'work may seriously affect your health'!

It's a kinda 'catch 24' situation though - when you don't work you recover and then you're well enough to work - then you go back to work and the stress is unbelievable! I mean you do a few weeks work and then you get all ratty like Brunette, and want to run over people in your car 'cos there is no airconditioning...........now if she just stayed at home being 'cool' she'd have no reason to get irritated in the traffic, would she?

Then you go on 'holiday' and try and be happy, but how can you possibly be happy when you know in the back of your mind that it shall all end and you have to go back to work!

There is only one solution - rob a bank, get first class plastic surgery, emmigrate to a little island in the mediterranean and claim you've retired after winning the lottery.

That's my advice - take it or leave it!

Actually, I think I'm blessed with good genes - even in the Army I never had to train to pass biannual physical fitness tests. I can get quite fit in just a couple of weeks of training, that would take most people several months. There again, a lot of physical work can also cause illness, so I am a great person for doing time and motion studies to save any effort that's not purely for pleasure - and the less energy we expend the more we contribute to saving the planet - right?

I love running, well I used to......I still go up stairs three at a time and sometimes down stairs about 12 at a time without being drunk (I like to lean down a stairwell, grab the bannister about six or seven steps down and hurl myself into space; ok, so it's juvenile and being a show-off, but that's the child in me!).

I also love swimming underwater - and in a 10 metre pool, a couple of years ago, dived in and swam eleven lengths underwater just for the hell of it...........I could probably only manage three or four now without coming up for air and demanding a cigarette!

I think it's just good to be alive, but nowadays I mostly just try and slow down and fit in with other people - both physically and mentally......otherwise people get exhausted by my company.

dang - that was a long post of mine......I need a rest now!
