Money is not everything.
« on: Feb 09, 2019, 09:09:24 PM »

I had a house in St Albans which somebody pointed out is now up for sale for £1,500,000 and said I would have been in a better financial state had I stayed there.
That may be true but what price can you put on having your 2 daughters nearby and helping them to buy their houses.
Of course I have got Andy and Peter but I share a few other dogs with the rest of the wider family.
As far as we are concerned we only look after our dogs on behalf of the wider family and they belong to everybody.

**** ****.
Everything will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, its not the end.

Blood is thicker than water, and the donkey laden with gold still eats grass.

With you apparent need to tell all here every aspect of your life it is a shame that so many of your posts are repetitive. This latest one is a breath of fresh air and I am sure will hold many here enthralled.


Can I suggest a few follow on topics that may be equally riveting...


My shoe size
My underpants style preference
What time I usually go to bed
What time I usually get up
Whether or not I take sugar in tea or coffee
How much my water bill is
My current energy provider
Plus any others that may come to mind to replace the regular repeats.

Money is not everything, BUT it sure helps when you don't have a lot.  ;D

I remember Phil posting something along these lines.
 Money isn't everything.. until the Ballifs call.
Everything will be alright in the end, and if it’s not alright, its not the end.

My Dad always used to say

"Money won't bring you happiness, but when you have it, you can choose what sort of misery you want"

A similar sort of saying was prevalent in our family

Thank you for the days, the days you gave me.
The older I get, the better I was!

See Brian just as I predicted your change of subject matter, marginal as it was, has lead to far more interest than your running club thread - I can only presume that Scrumpy has found no legs of lamb on special. Given the interest here perhaps you should give one of my suggested subjects a try out. Your choice of underpant styling perhaps?

13s perhaps? Unless he's moved up to adult sizes of course.
