Except last night, when I just couldnât get to sleep for some reason. I suppose I could have been trying to get the first post for my first time everâŠ
One of the football ( soccer ) leagues I used to referee was an Over 40 League. Most of the teams were comprised of former footballers from their respective countries â England, Germany, Italy, Mexico etc. These âold timersâ could definitely show the youngster a thing or two.Sometimes, these were things that I preferred that the younger players NOT learn. I had quite a few Andy Capps, of all nationalities, on the various teams.Sunday afternoons were never dull !
Todayâs strip once again has no personality, no flavor to savor. It couldâve been any coach of any team of any sport in any time period of history. (Maybe not ancient teams who played with skulls for their balls, but then againâŠâŠ.) Chalkie j and Sandfan saved the day with their classics. (Todayâs mightâjust MIGHT, mind youâhave passed as a serviceable Sunday strip, if thereâd been a few panels of the kidâs atrocious display of ineptitude and Andyâs increasingly shocked reaction to have HIM on his team!)
I donât know, as when I found mine working better I got right back on it. It acted up again around suppertime. Much later.. starting around turnover, it got good and is that way still. -Saturday started out good and got windy by the afternoon. They kept at it though. No rain, at least. They were clearing out some more stuff yesterday and it is quiet and barren looking today. I took pics before it started and have some post auction shots too. -I know that I still havenât loaded the bathroom fix pics but I been busy at stuff. Gave the truck a vacuuming and washed the outside with a hose, soapy water and a brush. Will be cutting the grass around the garden in awhile so I have a place to put the carpet strips I use on the ground between rows. - Every year at the dental shop always brought work for that man. As a young teen, [me] he told me I have soft enamel. at about 13 He pulled a molar. I was not too happy about that, but sometime previous I had bit into a piece of âmade in South Americaâ Halloween candy, the kind youâre supposed to let melt, and chipped off a part of that tooth to where the understory became exposed. It got bad. He put in a temp filling and on my next trip got out the pliers. ->English-good teeth< is that a conundrum or a contradiction ? Happy to know you have good choppers. -If we canât go on to friends, who can we go on to ?This column would just be a blank white space, much like what Sixâs bar shots would look like if we were all âProfâ essionaland strictly bizniss.__________________________________________
I am glad your weekend started out to be nice and sunny. It is windy here right now and my hair is a mess. It hurts when I brush it because Iâm growing it very long and there are a few tangles here and there. Sighhhh.-Anyway, Sorry to hear that you have bad memories of the dentist too. You have my sympathy!! I know what you mean about the sweets you are supposed to let melt. I like them but I like âchewyâ sweets a lot better. Did he give you the injection with the anaesthetic before he took your tooth out? -I had to have 4 teeth taken out because I had too many. Afterwards, My gums were leaking the âred stuffâ and I had to put up with it. Sorry, gruesome I know. The anaesthetic was as painful as anything but my dentist managed to persuade me to have it as pulling on the tooth without it would hurt a LOT more. -Hope you get your pics uploaded very soon! Iâm sure theyâll be awesome.-I still wonder every day why You-Know-Who isnât banned yet as Iâm sure most of us do.-I hope you are well today and that your day is pleasant.
Re: Teeth..Iâm not sure just where this thing about British people having bad teeth came from. At the age of 60, I still have all of my teeth (except for one that cracked when I got beaten up in the street and fell apart when the dentist tried to fill it) . I never have to have any treatmentâŠâŠguess Iâm just lucky. .
In undilutedAC, Percy Ritson is a major Player; at-least as important than Jack the Barman, and more-frequently seen than Ruby White or The Vicar. . . . due to current missteps by who has hostage of the Comic now, His futureâs not-too-bright.
Thank you but I had teeth out 4 years ago, not recently.Your sister is in my thoughts. Itâs a painful thing to get done but in the end I found it was worth all the pain.

He can always find the nearest pub to celebrate a victory or drown his sorrow over a loss. Thatâs gotta count for something.

Hmmm, I think the comicl would have been better if the lad had hung his head in the last panel instead of grimicing (sic) at us. Just sayinâ

Well, Youâre not exactly âPlayer of the Yearâ yourself are you, Andy?
