The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

Happy Saturday. Up, coffee, fed cats, one vomity noise which isn't investigated - yet - and we get sun and it warms up a bit today. Still no offers on the job front. Didn't hear back from the one I got a bit excited about - yet. It ain't dead until it's dead. TDK is over there, eyeballing me.
Are you not liking where you're at?
 
Good morning all. Hope you are all sleeping soundly. Early Sundays in rural France is when the world is at its quietest. Most businesses closed yesterday lunchtime and many will not re-open until Tuesday morning. Right now there is not a single sound to be heard or a light to be seen for 20 miles. Bliss!
 
Good Morning! I had such a hard time sleeping last night. I think my longest span was 4 to 7 this morning. I had insomnia. I hadn't had that in a long while. And my last cup of jo was early. I have a little over an hour drive today, so this should be fun with lack of sleep and back. I'll be the only one sleeping in the waiting room today lol.

Happy Saturday! It's a great day to be wonderful!!
This is for you, Wat:

You poor thing! I hope it was a worthwhile trip. 🫂🫂
 
Nah... because I let them sip water as it passed and would coach swallow swallow swallow..... then 8 would suck it all back out and give them a big hug and wash their face. Older folks took it like a champ
I did that with my conscious patients. With the intubated ones, I used a laryngoscope and Magill forceps to keep the tube from following the ETT.
 
Oh it’s lovely I am missed thank you! It’s why I love you all so much.

To be honest inhale been having a break. The emotion and everything with my new grandchild and daughter left me feeling washed out. I had all the Remembrance stuff to come back to. I also had both covid and flu jags on Monday and dentist Tuesday. I decided not to go on the hill again until yesterday but rest. I also had two weeks paperwork to sort.

So here I am..I went on the hill yesterday…the dogs were a little wayward after the break but it happens. Today.

I haven’t bothered catching up I just don’t have time. Good to be back!

We're glad you're back, G! 😘🥰💞
 
Deep fried Mars bars????? Tell me more!
They are a culinary delicacy, originating in the 1990s in Scottish fish and chip shops. They are held up as a symbol of the perceived poor diet of the Scots by others (mostly the English)

It is just as it sounds, the chilled chocolate bar is dipped in batter and deep-fried until golden. I must confess to never having eaten one, so I cannot comment on the end result.
 
I wish you all a serene Sunday. Here are a few more 'bons mots' to, hopefully, raise a smile. Once again, I am indebted to the fabulous Canadian comedian, Stewart Francis.

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

My dad has a weird hobby; he collects empty bottles… which sounds so much better than “alcoholic.”

I manufactured clown shoes… no small feat.

I have a girlfriend! I’ve been going out with my girlfriend for… sex!

I saw a documentary on how ships are kept together. Riveting!

I went to a Karaoke Bar last night that didn’t play any 70s music. At first I was afraid, oh I was petrified.
 
But it's good practice... 🤫

Have any of you tried glide typing? I'm trying to get used to it as the auto suggest results are A LOT better. It's a lot faster, but really takes some getting used to.

Basically you put your finger on the first letter of the word then slide it to successive letters without picking your finger up. You draw squiggles on the keyboard, and it interprets those as button pushes.

Thanks! I'll try it!

Sounds like what we call "fair food" here. I think it's a law that all foods served or sold at any fairs must be deep fried! 😅😅😅
