Hey guys .. is this all you guys down here ...? I would put loads of question marks but they get translated into 'confused' and I'm not confused just seriously boozed! I've been on the cider and the wine, one after the other, together ,, aagh , who knows. Had a lovely lunch with some friends who are debating (sob) moving back from here to Tenerife. Or as we call it here as a kind of joke ... TeneriFAY. We always call it Tenereef but friends who have lived there always called it TenereefAY. Why? Shall I pour you all a large glass? Cheers!

Hello CainA :) Cider and wine, I like the sound of that :) I know what you mean about the question marks, I've only just got used to not using them as questionmarks!!!!

Another one of your 'expressions' then :) - one of these days we will have to compare notes!!! I have a great one from when I lived in Tenerife and met this chap on our first night there who couldn't find work and was going home - can't put it on here because it needs asterisks in parts!!

I could do with a glass but only like Foster's with Cheese & Onion McCoy crisps :) Never found anything else I like!! :( I can manage slugs in cappos though - just got one here with me - must be my fourth today!!

Well, I'm off to bed to listen to the radio at 10.00 - can't miss Nick Abott!! :)

Nite CainA. :)

Night, GFG. Sleep well. I'm getting a bit of a headache. no surprise there. I shall have to check and see if we can get (a) Fosters or b) McCoy crisps here and I'm already pretty sure the answer will be 'no'. Looking forward to the asterisk saying ... perhaps you can send it by pm? Woops, almost put lots of question marks there. Any chance Tropical and Doritos will do the trick?

A bott in our house is not what you might expect ... we are just too lazy to add 'le' ... coming from the sarf, the word should be 'bockul' in any case. Just 'bock' is clear enough and could someone please pass another one? Thanks.

Not too fond of Cider but along with Red may be worth aHeadache.
I suggest the Crisps will be next to the Pan in Mercado, just past the Leche. Fresco.

I may have a couple of Carlings later.
I have an unopened bottle of Ouzo here if Anyone fancies some..?

Don't worry about the McCoy's - Tropical & Doritos will do nicely and we won't mind sharing the pool either!! ;)

After eating 8 Krispy Kremes and a curry last night, I'm trying to cut back on the calories, so the Foster's will have to go on hold for a while!! :)

Honest! When Max has coughed up (yuk), and you've restocked, put a bottle or a box or whatever in the fridge for an hour or two before serving. Nice. But only in a warm climate, warbs and MM, don't you go trying this in Wales.

Best thing to do, Warbs, is to find a large glass and fill it with your favourite tipple and then you won't care quite so much. I quite often find my masterpieces go to waste as well ... and those are the ones I've posted!

Topping up, topping up! Open a new bottle/box, Warbs! Poor you, MM, how on earth did you do that. Kicking something in a rage? Or, like a friend, just falling over going into the Bank. (We did tease him about that one as he is the kind who has moths in his wallet).

It was the name I used to get called on here some years ago. And one of my closest friends sons have always called me that, as it was what Sheila called me. When we tried to tell them years later I was called Maxine, they were having none of it, so Patsy has stuck! ;)

This chilled Red is lovely whatever the Season. Trouble is We need bigger Bottles......
..
We went to a Barbie some weeks ago and had a lovely Champagne, which I am not very fond of..
Saw it later on in Tesco. Its called MM and priced at 24.99. Expensive taste perhaps..?
.
Talking of Toes Monkey, When I was small We had a Earthenware Hot Water Bottle.
One Evening My Dad went to slaP Me as I was holding it. I dropped it and ran and it Landed on His Toe.
Luckily I kept goingUntil Outside before He could murder Me.

What made Him seeth was Everyone was Laughing. I stayed out of reach for well over an hour that Day...

I think I might be better being June Whitfield (can't remember the name of her character), dotty yet with a degree of sense unlike Eddy. And Eddy's dress sense and addiction to modern technology are just not me at all. But, if you're buying the bolly, I'll be almost whoever you like .... well, online and on a forum and not at all in the real world ....

And since I'm being Granny, I think I might retire for the night now and I trust Saffy will lock up the Dungeon nice and safe and no mad parties, Patsy dear, OK?

No energy for parties tonight, Cainaries, was at another one last night and I'm working tomorrow, so an early night for this granny too... ;)

Talking of granny's OH is a very handsome I must add, grandfather of 7 now, she arrived about 3am this morning 6.1 lbs looking lovely from the text we received (they're not local) so put some more vino in the fridge time for celebrations.

Shame about Amy W. tho

A few years ago I had to go on a business trip to Hawaii (I know, really horrid it was!). The islands are volcanic like the Canaries but clearly one of the VIP's American wives hadn't done any homework at all (even though we were, technically, still in the States). She called up my boss and asked 'What is all the black ****?' and he tried to explain about volcanic rock but she decided he was just lying and flew straight back to Texas.

So it's not just us!

And, of course, you know about the American tourist who asked why the Queen had Windsor Castle built on the flight path to Heathrow .. of course you did! Old as the hills (or, indeed, the castle).

I was on a Vaporreto on Grand Canal in Venice talking to Americans from California and the ladyfriend asked when did they build the Lake ??
They then got of at San Marco leaving a large rucksack under the bench full of electronic and camera equipment - luckily I noticed and chased them up to return it , though it could have been anything !!
Totally naive outside their own environment!

I don't like this on the Amy Winehouse thread as don't want to upset anyone. But can anyone down here in the Dungeon explain to me why people have left Malibu, Coke, Rum and cigarettes at the shrine outside her house? Do they think she is crossing the River Styx? I'm very sad that anyone should die in those circumstances, famous, brilliant yet alone ... it's the behaviour of the fans that puzzles me, nothing to do with her at all.

Yes, I know allergies can suddenly come out of the blue, but it looks as if dehydration is definitely the cause for the change in my skin... Just need to find a better way of keeping hydrated, my current way of dealing with it clearly isn't working. :(

Using Aloe vera daily, but must confess to never trying the drink... Woke up minus my headache this morning, thank goodness, 4 days was quite enough...

Unfortunately though, got some very sad news earlier this afternoon and cried so much, the headache is back.... but now I'm not thinking about myself, only the the death of this lovely woman... I feel numb.

Really sorry to hear this, Maxine. Crying can give you a really horrible headache. No use telling you not to cry though.

Will check with the neighbours about a party, Warbey. We share a driveway (this is shorthand for the real situation) and have all been doing major roadworks on this and a 'baile' and 'fiesta' have been promised on completion of the obras. So, TF members all invited (panic if you were to show up, of course). I'll let you know the date.

Yes I have Cainaries, since Thursday afternoon. I only went to see the doc about the constant headaches I'd been getting, next thing I know, I was attached to a drip and in a hospital bed! :( I've had every type of scan going, and pumped full of drugs (and not the sort that make you want to party ;)). So, after 5 days of only being allowed water or camomile tea, a nice cup of PG's will go down a treat... Milk and sugar please (been told to up my sugar intake!) :D

Large cuppa beside your bed. We occasionally drink tea out of thick pint mugs (especially after a heavy night) but since you are a polite, delicate flower, I've given you the bone china.

Am about to go shopping, Maxine, anything you need? Just a suggestion, have you tried osteopathy? Cranial osteopathy might be just what you need to ease the headaches. I'm not much into 'alternative' anything but I do find this helps. (You hadn't put yourself on a caffeine-free diet had you? That can cause awful headaches).

A chiropractor is my next port of call.... I remember having bad headaches after a bad car crash about 11 years ago, and a friend suggested a chiropractor, which worked wonders. Worth a try, it may be that it's my neck that's the problem... Anything is worth a try, if it stops the bloody headaches!! :wall:

My diet hasn't changed much in years, nor has my tea consumption... And I only drink coffee if accompanied by a large brandy :D

Personally would still recommend cranial osteopathy as a first step since it is far more gentle than a chiropractor if you're feeling a bit fragile. Large brandies don't help with existing headaches and tend to cause new ones. Years of experience have led me to this conclusion. Hope you start to feel better soon.

OOOh what's that then, Warbey? Not the cava that finished off Cairo's laptop, I hope?

Am already on the vino (it's 8 o'clock after all), otherwise I would love a cup of Oxo. If you were to offer it at about elevenses time, that would be great. It is a source of great amusement to OH that my family always time things by meals.

Large brandies don't help with existing headaches and tend to cause new ones. Years of experience have led me to this conclusion. Hope you start to feel better soon.

OOOh what's that then, Warbey? Not the cava that finished off Cairo's laptop, I hope?

Am already on the vino (it's 8 o'clock after all), otherwise I would love a cup of Oxo. If you were to offer it at about elevenses time, that would be great. It is a source of great amusement to OH that my family always time things by meals.

Thats how We time things too, to a large extent.
Teatime can be tricky though as its between half four and nine depending on location.
Oahu was about 7 ish though.

am or pm? Or as my cousin's ex-husband used to call them ack-emma or pip-emma (might be a military term, dunno)

Teatime doesn't run into wine-time in this house .. not quite.

Max I been getting migraine type headaches every 4 weeks for past 2-3 years, which last for 3-4 days. Not bad enough to put me to bed but feel weary by day 4.
A friend suggested taking Magnesium, which I take every other day and not had a bad head for nearly 7 weeks.
Also would try a chiropractioner or oesteo as neck pain can cause headaches.
Hope you sort it soon, nothing worse! Well maybe toothache comes close! lol

I've never suffered from migraine, or any type of headaches apart from the occasional one, and also never had toothache on my life... Strange though that a lot of people seem to be complaining of headaches at the moment. Weather maybe ???

Will see what the chiropractor says... it's my only hope at the moment! :(

Sorry its still wi8th You Max

We went to Rhyl and LLandudno Yesterday, taking Our 9 year old grandson with us.
Weather wasnt cold but rain and mist most of Day.
Quite a few in both places, although I didnt see Monkey....

Plenty around Llandudno Pier, most in wet weather gear. Couldnt help thinking about Tenerife Sun.!

Had a nice Evening Meal with Grandson getting a Free Ice Cream to follow.
So, Yes, it CAN happen in the U.K. too........

Great to hear your check up went well. :)

I've been suffering bouts of waking up with very bad headaches for a few year's now, even had an op on my nose to try and help - no good at all. I'm going through a bout of them at the moment. They start around 4.00 in the morning and it's impossible to stay in bed too long. :( I'll get some Magnesium as SusieF has suggested - will trying anything if it may help. Hope you get them sorted Max - I know how you feel!! :(

I only got half way round. It was rather hot work. Having missed your cappa I fell in the pool for a bit then had a cup of tea. Followed fairly shortly by some cool white wine followed by more of the same. Got admin to do in the morning so may be some other kind soul can finish off the winders.

I´m going to ask an obvious question Max! have you had your eyes tested? Do you think a break from the pc might help a bit? 3 weeks is way too long to have the same headache! Sorry to hear you still not good!:(

Think it's more likely to be my neck than my eyes... It got badly knocked in a car crash some years ago. Eyes seem fine, but will have them checked too, just in case!

I know people praise the Osteo´s and Chiroprators over here but I have been seeing an excellent qualified Physio who was recommended to my by my Orpthopedic Doctor here, she seems to find the exact spots where I have problems without me telling her anything. She is German but speaks English, you might find it worth trying her for your neck problem, she charges 25€. Wish you better!:goodluck:

Just back from the shops and a pointless argument in the Correos. Too hot for coffee and I've forgotten to buy the iced coffee I promised myself. Might opt for a beer.

Max, your headaches sound absolutely horrible. I think after three weeks I'd try absolutely anything, acupuncture, whatever. Certainly worth trying Suej's physio I would think. Have you been to the chiropractor yet? Did this headache simply just arrive unannounced and without permission?

Ok Ok ladies have we ever thought there's too much coffee and too much wine drinking going on ??? hmmmm

Goforgold was having a coffee with a slug (see post 484) Where was hubby ?

Cainaries on the beer at 13.32 ??

I think we need a strong excercise regime here -

BTW sorry I've been missing been off and hit the vat of wine in the dungeon so SueJ can you please re stock hun?


where's oneleg ? Been chasing him the last couple weeks, thought I'd have caught up by now :cheeky:

Max on a serious note hun hope you get rid of the headaches.....OH been bad the last 2 weeks but round the back of his head/neck

MaxineC
16-08-2011, 23:34
Cheers ladies... I'll be fine. I must admit waking up everyday with a thumping headache is wearing me down, but on a positive side we know it's not anything serious... So, we'll just keep going through the process of eliminating things.

Now somebody pass me a brandy... I bloody deserve it, and it ain't going to make me feel any worse!! ;)

Sleep well.

Is there any chance someone could clear a bit of a space in the freezer for some ice-cream? Ta.

I heard an awful statistic yesterday. British and Irish women drink eleven times (ELEVEN TIMES) more alcohol than other European women. Not sure if this extends to Russia but ... eleven times more. That's quite a lot, isn't it? Cheers, yes, another one would be great.
