ParticipantOr the computer generated voice, with the phone call about payment protection insurance (for credit cards, bank loans etc) I don’t have it, I never had it, I don’t qualify, I was self-employed, stop calling me damn it! It says press nine to be removed from our list, I do….Ten minutes later phone rings again, God help me go away!!!
ParticipantLol Graham, I remember a few years back, when I first bought my horse, I was transporting her from Yorkshire to Hampshire, where I lived at the time, I stopped to get fuel, something to eat, and a bathroom break! Beau, always thinks it’s time to get out when the horsebox stops and neighs until I get in, talk to her for a minute, give her a polo mint or two, some guy walks up and says, having heard her neighing, have you got a horse in there love? me, ever sarcastic, No mate, pet elephant! I mean really, stupid question much, and whenever I move her, which I have, quite often, I always get some numpty ask either is it a horse, or is it a racehorse, well yes, she was a racehorse, just not anymore :crazy:
ParticipantDid your car break down….
No you spanner, I am stood here, at the side of the road, with the bonnet/hood up, in the pouring rain because I thought the engine could do with a wash!!! :banghead:
ParticipantWhat about “nuciler” It’s bloody nuclear, its not even a difficult word!!
ParticipantOh that Graham, and when people squeak them, you know, rub their fingers along them, God that noise makes my teeth itch!!
ParticipantAnd 42 is the meaning of life….. If, the computer Deep Thought is to be believed in Douglas Adams books The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy… So it was a rhetorical answer lol
ParticipantWow I really wish I had seen this sooner, I met my partner almost 13 years ago, six months before his car crash, we fell in love, but he was married and so was I. We finally got together just over a year ago, he was very aware that his disability could effect how I felt about him, we discussed it at length, in many hours of phone calls, before we saw each other again, after a 10 year gap. For me, nothing had changed, we live 275 miles apart, and see each other only once every six weeks or so, to ease both of us into our life together. He has never wanted his partner to be a carer, but obviously there are times when the care agency people are not there, and things need to be done, and as I have always told him, I wouldn’t do anything I didn’t want to, so, the catheter bag might be full, I empty it, he is in bed with a pressure sore, and hates to have a beard, I give him a shave, he doesn’t trust anyone but me to do it anyway! When I look at this man, whom I utterly adore, I see him, not his disability, not his wheelchair, just him, the same man I fell in love with all those years ago, and while I know to ask for help when I need it, I also know there is nothing I wouldn’t do for him. All it is really is the boundaries of looking after each other are slightly different in our relationship, than in others, but that’s ok with me, it works, he loves me to my very core, just as I am, a mouthy, strong-willed, caring woman, and I love him, willful, independant, and over-protective, and stubborn as hell, and if he wasn’t all those things he would have died in the car crash….
