patsylabrador Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 I looked at the silly mum thread then posted on this one and they got muddled but I don't think I have that kind of power! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Have to say never ventured here before - what a weird thread. The reproductive tract had me worried as it looked nothing like what I draw for patients when I explain "yer bits" to them. Thank goodness you posted it was a horse at the bottom of page. Came out in hot sweat and not a menopausal one either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Would be funnier if you'd been drawing horsey bits for them! 4 and a hour hour power nap this afternoon Hard life being a student Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I was running a few minutes late to a lecture this morning. Got into the lecture theater, went up the stairs at the side to get to a seat, somehow managed to fall over and land on my back. The lecturer asked if I was ok (which I was) then helpfully reminded me I was late.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

patsylabrador Posted January 27, 2012 Author Share Posted January 27, 2012 A soldier from the Yorkshire Regiment was shot and killed today. I truly am sorry to be a bore but it pains me so much and just helps to write it down. So grateful and so sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Very understandable. On the subject of silly mothers, my YD opened the airing cupboard yesterday morning to get her games kit out and asked me if my mobile was meant to be in there. I had obviously put it down on the shelf when I had put the clothes in there on my way to bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chook n Boo Mum Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I did wonder when I'd posted on the "little facts & things" thread ....not going totally nuts then But while I'm here.......when setting a mousetrap, always make sure your fingers are away from the snappy bit ....it really hurts when it bites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 can't think of a better place to leave a mobile oh the mousetrap - I caught my fingers in one the air was blue as was my finger. And Lewis - horses bits are far more interesting than hoooman ones Dont remember the crazy thread. This is a bitsa thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsylabrador Posted January 28, 2012 Author Share Posted January 28, 2012 I was describing some people as looking a bit listless and then thought that we don't use the word list to mean lively and wondered if anyone knows its origins. I thought maybe it could have something to do with jousting. Just one of those things your mind goes over on a Saturday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Interesting pondering, Patsylabrador. List was once a noun meaning inclination or craving, but has fallen out of use. Shall we reinstate this archaic word, I'm sure Omleteers could soon have it trending, remember you heard it here first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickencam Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 Listless could be a nautical term, because a boat wouldn't list if there was no wind it would just sit there, having said that where does the word list for lean come from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 I always wonder the same about the word "ruthless". You can't be "ruth" so how can you be "ruthless" . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted January 28, 2012 Share Posted January 28, 2012 You know this really is a weird thread - just people blathering on like me about nothing and ignoring what the people before have written in the main. i only found it as I was looking for my "silly mum" thread and the mods obviously thought "another one for the waffle thread" and thats it. Sad really just wanted to let you know I am totally daft and menopausal and slightly tipsy after 2 glasses of wine (i dont drink much so when I do I get tipsy quick). I am the big 50 on Friday - half a century I have been on the planet and the early days I dont remember - its scary - you exist but dont remember it. Off to watch "take me out" with YS who's been ill - wish someone would take me out - wanders off glass of red in hand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
