The Barbican production, with Robert Lindsay and Felicity Kendall. It was fabulous. Set on an ocean liner, when cruising transatlantic was a very special thing. Very funny. Great sets. Stunning musical production. Well worth catching up for a couple of hours of your time on a dank January evening I certainly did it was great and I saw it in the theatre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its now set in the late 60s I think. Having lived during that period in a very rural village of just 300 souls my recollection is that no-one had more than 3 kids.Yet the programme still features families where they produce multiple children. Am I missing something? They mentioned the pill in one scene did this just pass the East end by? Just bewildered - are they continuing through the sort of storylines the show was built on when set in the 1950s? As I say puzzled. Plus I found it boring for the first time ever.

Rare Eddie99 Posted December 27, 2021 #29232 Share Posted December 27, 2021 I’m afraid we never have tittynopes. If it’s small enough to warrant that label it’ll just get eaten first off, not kept for another occasion! Bit of serious stuff now. I’ve read two different pieces from medics who ought to know what they’re talking about, saying omicron multiplies so quickly it can be galloping around in your throat and moving elsewhere thro the body before virus is discernible in the nose. Sooooo, tickle your tonsils with the swab before putting it up your nose; never mind what the instructions say. Sorry folks - back to retching, but it’s in a good cause 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a builder, he brings stuff home all the time but never gets time to sort things out properly. It’s like a builders merchant here, 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ardennais Posted December 28, 2021 #29246 Share Posted December 28, 2021 On a serious note, my husband is ok on the whole, but he had to come downstairs during the night as he was coughing badly in bed. He managed to sleep for a few hours in the armchair so lying down is more of a problem. I’m so glad that he got the flu vaccine for the first time this year. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Eddie99 Posted December 28, 2021 #29247 Share Posted December 28, 2021 @Adawn47 - a treat for you tonight. BBC4 8pm. It’s JVT giving the first of the Royal Institution Christmas Lectures 2021 - on virus, titled The Invisible Enemy https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0012tzd Probably something we could all benefit from watching? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-vaccine when I had covid19 in November 2020 It took me several weeks to properly recover and I think your husband has tried to do things to soon thinking he was better after being vaccinated. I am sorry to hear he has a really bad cough still. Take care. Graham. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
