Peggy's Mundane Thread

Just off Start Point, sun streaming through the clouds over Start Bay.

In all seriousness Peggy, I wonder if you should report this couple to the police, they are obviously up to something.

It's been pointed out to me that they might be off to take a grandchild (or more than one) to school, before getting the shopping in on the way home.

I much preferred Jock's explanation, but there you go.

Mrs PP and I were in town (one of my few visits), and being helpful sorts asked if a partially sighted gentleman with a white stick if he wanted help crossing the road at Coburg Street. He said that he did and was very grateful.

Mrs PP then asked where he wanted to go, to which he replied 'Specsavers'.

I waited until he was out of earshot before the sniggering began.

Does that make me a bad person?

He might have been going to Specsavers for a hearing test.

Or collecting a pair of spectacles for his wife, cruel to laugh at the afflicted.

Or if he was short-sighted he might have been James Brent?

This morning while taking small people (2) to school, I encountered the Chair of the Argyle Fans' Trust taking a small person (1) to school.

Once at school, I joined in with 'stay and play'. Last time, there was Lego. This time, there wasn't.

Before all that, we'd discovered that the five year old's coat fits the big teddy. Bit disappointing, really, that the most exciting thing of the day should have happened so early.

have they got a sandpit ?

The Plym Peregrine's hatched their first chick (eyase) yesterday late afternoon.

so that's ok then

I have to say the mundanity on this site is much more interesting than the mundanity on another site.

Now I'm confused.

pigeons ate my purple sprouting broccoli. traps at the ready

That's mundinaety at it's most awsome.

Been to rhyme time with the little un. 50 toddlers with their mums and dads singing nursery rhymes and causing mayhem.

Didn't realise row row row your boat had so many verses. You learn something new every day.

ive always found it weird that i get moaned at in the library if my phone rings,
yet 20 screaming kids can go on about their bus' wheels going round and bloody round.
GRUMP OVER

Libraries aint what they used to be.

A mobile went off at my mum's funeral service yesterday. Funerals aint what they used to be.

Could be very upsetting if like me your ringtone is Highway to Hell.

No, it was a bell ringing. I was afraid it would wake her up.

Good to see you're keeping a sense of humour Kencht.

It was a good send-off. We had tears. We had hugs. We had laughter. My mum would have been pleased.

I have a new phone and I need a teenager to teach me how to use it.

If it's O2 don't bother, it has crashed again!

Grass cutting, love it!

Sorry to hear of your loss Knecht, chin up and all that.

Don't assume that they'll know, Hippo! I've recently been doing something (I could tell you what, but then I'd have to kill you ...) where young people have to switch their phones off and leave them with us for a while. Most days, we end up with several of them having to take the batteries out because they don't know how to switch them off.

Huge muthafuckas they are, too. The phones, I mean.

I see that if you're in the know and a cool Argyle fan that Pickle is Branston

Meanwhile in other sandwich related mundanity I made myself a roast pork and sundried tomato sandwich earlier and tried to carve Kaz's homemade bread into something that resembled slices of bread, but ended up looking like my profile. Very thin with a big bulge in the middle (fat stomach not a huge cock)

ham & mustard in the end, washed down with Symonds cider.
