    I'm still uplifted by her kindness. James.

    Sorry to hear that the Black Dog has bitten you again.
    I blame the black dog for all my problems.

    Good advice in here - I particularly liked "Get a Corgi", in fact I would say any dog as long as its not black. Our little white (some of the time) Bichon, Maltese/****zu is a constant source of enjoyment & great company. Sadly he hates traveling in the old Land Rovers, but he always cheers me up.

    Cheers Nigel

    Dear me, Arthur, I was worried we'd be without your unique sense of humour for a while. And for me your description of how electricity can be generated by a combination of cement floors, steel posts, and cow pee, (have I even remembered that correctly?), has never been topped by anything else on the Internet so far!
    At any given point in time, somewhere in the world someone is working on a Land-Rover.

    Stick with it Arthur, my Dad has it, and I have had signs of it for a few years now. Those days when you get up and feel so over it that you want to sell everything, inc the house, wife etc are the worst. The friends, social life and misses are the bits that are needed, especially this forum. Being able to immerse your thoughts somewhere else (assisting fixing problems on here etc) help me no end. So ironically does my big black boof head Chappy my black Lab cross!! Pick someone close to you who is happy to be told you are in that place, and learn to tell them when you feel yourself going there. My wife is mine and she knows when to leave me alone, and or to help pick me up and take me somewhere else. Shout if you need as we've all said b4. Take care!

    That's right, James, it wasn't in the house or anything.

    I can't remember . . . it was a discussion here . . . that went off topic . . . which never happens, of course . . .

    I'll try and find it if you want?

    Roosters Tail Scale = seven feathers

    As I indicated in this thread, there is a lot more out battling the blues than I ever realised. we should be putting forward a plan or things that help, to those who like to keep a low profile.

    An earth shaking event is measured with the Richter Scale, So while shutting the chooks up tonight, I was looking at our rooster strutting about. I told him "just look at you", fine feathers make fine birds, so when his tail feathers has been made into a feather duster the rooster would look very down on his luck.

    Where am I going with this? I am going to try liven up the discussion with the suggestion that the Blues have a scale to be measured by, could be fun what do you think?

    Blues events can not be measured with the Richter Scale as that is for the earth shaking events, so how about the Roosters Tail Scale for the mind blowing events, on a setting from 0 feathers to 10 feathers ?

    0 is as low as you can go and 10 is strutting about feeling pretty special, where are you at the moment?

    I am feeling a lot better so I'm about seven feathers at the present.

    Good to hear Arthur. Be happy to hear when you're up to the full 10.

    Me, I'm up to eight and a half. I did a half day at work this morning, and felt pretty wiped out this afternoon, but just glad that the light at the end of the tunnel is close
