Rescue mission!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 15 Mar 19

Superman to the rescue! Well, ok, not Superman just Teddy! A couple of days ago we were at our daughter's house, not just for a visit but to keep an eye on our youngest grandchild (and a very lively terrier pup named Misty),...

A good nights' sleep!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 10 Mar 19

Isn't it great when we have a really good nights' sleep! We wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day ahead - raring to go and nothing will stop us! On the other hand a bad nights' sleep can make us tired, grumpy, lazy and...

It's all noise and bluster!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 9 Mar 19

There is a saying: An empty vessel makes the most noise meaning that someone who likes to hear the sound of their own voice usually says nothing worth hearing. Do you know anyone like that - I know I do!

I've had enough!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 8 Mar 19

Enough is enough! What are we to do when former friends turn nasty?. Once upon a time we had good relations with them but now they turn nasty and don't have a good word to say about us - despite all the help and support we gave...

Families can be horrible things

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 6 Mar 19

There is a well known saying: You can choose your friends but you can't choose your family. Families can, at times, be some of the most unpleasant things in this world. Arguments and hostilities within families can go on...

My lost parcel suddenly appeared!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 5 Mar 19

Just before Christmas I sent my eldest son a gift through the post. Unfortunately, he didn't get it - it had mysteriously disappeared somewhere in the postal system. Despite complaining to the relevant department the parcel wasn't...

What was your first pet?

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 3 Mar 19

My first pet as a child was a mouse but my family have also had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, gerbils, tropical fish, budgies, parrots and probably others I've forgotten about! We haven't had all of these at the same time...

What's been your scariest experience?

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 1 Mar 19

Apart from a couple of near misses when driving my car or walking near traffic I think my scariest experience must be when something tried to choke me in my bed one night. I felt hands around my throat but could do nothing about...

Where's my hammer!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 28 Feb 19

OK, I wouldn't actually use a hammer on my new printer but believe me I have certainly considered it over the past couple of days! Why? Because the damned thing refused to connect to my laptop! Yes, I know, that probably says...

Having a bad day? Here's one way to cope - my home-made stress relieving kit! Simply print it out, cut it to size and stick firmly to any hard surface. I'm not suggesting you actually should follow the instructions but I suppose...

Bad people

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

I've just read a post from one of my Facebook friends about a group who are posting online messages encouraging people to take their own lives. They are even giving tips on the best way to do it! What's wrong with some people that...

I've been doing it all wrong!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

And probably most of you have too! I have always opened a banana from the stem end where it is attached to the tree but, idly looking through YouTube, I came across a video of a much better way to open a banana. Apparently, this...

Facebook doesn't help in situations like this

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

It's so sad when friends have a serious falling out. Friends of ours have had just such a serious happening with other friends of theirs (whom we do not know). The situation has become quite heated and Facebook has become the...

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

Do you sometimes find yourself drawing meaningless doodles? Many people do when they are trying to think or concentrate on something. Apparently, it's a way for your brain to put the problem on the back-burner for a while and...

Do you like colouring books for adults?

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

My wife and daughter both like them but I've never seen the point. The patterns are very complex and I don't have either the patience or the time to complete one. If I had that much time to spare I'd rather spend it on...

Yes, 'Man Flu' does exist!

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 17 Feb 19

I can hear all you good ladies out there sighing and commenting about 'Wimpy Guys' but according to no less an authority than Harvard Medical School there are sound biological reasons why 'Man Flu' may actually be a real...

Bad habits

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 15 Feb 19

Ask anyone to name a bad habit and most people would say 'Smoking'. Yep, definitely a bad habit but there are many other habits which could be described as bad: eating with your mouth open, interrupting a conversation, correcting...

Were your schooldays a waste of time?

Teddy @ThreeTeddies (2038) • United Kingdom 15 Feb 19

My schooldays were pretty much a waste of time but then I didn't do myself any favours and didn't try very hard. I left under a cloud in the middle of the school year with no qualifications (I'll tell you about it sometime)....
