My father has black eyes, a cut on his forehead, cuts on his check and a swollen nose.
My brother is responsible for these injuries.
No he didn't beat him up, he brought him a wee fancy whisky back from America and my father drank it last night and was blootered.
84 years old and fell flat on his face.
🙄
Oh no! I'm sure he enjoyed it and doesn't even remember falling. 😁
Luckily he didn't do more damage to himself x
I don't think he remembered until he looked in the mirror Mags and then things started to come back!!
Lol, just glad he wasn't too badly hurt.
I've been cleaning his wounds, Mags.
Here he is...
Oh bless him V. He won't forget this in a hurry.

Oh bless him, I hope your mum wasn't too hard on him.
He was lucky he didn't break anything, the bruises will soon heal. x

I think you should get him Ribena next time or... don't leave him to drink whiskey alone!

Yesterday in the pound shop an Eastern European was walking around filling his bag up then walked out. He knew people saw him, even the shop assistant, but wasn't fazed and nothing done.
If that was me or anyone else we would be arrested.

Calling someone a racist on forums doesn't really have any effect now.
It's been used as an insult to shut people up since I started on forums in 2007, it's meaningless.
I cited two actual events that happened to me personally, I could cite a few more, I also have family that work in dentistry and friends and family that work in the NHS, they have very similar stories of what they also see.
Denying these things happen is the equivalent of going through life with closed eyes.

Farmers in tractors have irritated me today!
They're all over the place bringing in the last of the crops.
Harvest time!
On narrow roads with huge trailers machines ploughs animals in transport all going too fast wrong side of the road on bends.
I had to go a few places this morning last stop St Asaph Cathedral.
Cathedral was very busy with kids doing harvest festival stuff from many different schools different ages.
Just arrived home now still in one piece and having a late breakfast!

I agree so I've been on my back since then trying to relax and medicate my pains away... with little success.

Awww, that's good, hopefully when he is fully healed, he will think the enjoyment of drinking that Scotch was worth the after effects.

Jack has got a point...some of those Welsh country roads are a nightmare when you get stuck behind a bloody great tractor, there are few places to overtake....very frustrating.

Same in Kent, crawling along with multiple cars tagging behind. It's so annoying.

Today has been more about them coming at me to fast on blind bends nearly forcing me off the road!
She was raging Syl because yesterday was their day for going food shopping and there he is looking like he's gone ten rounds with Tyson Fury!!
I don't think he remembered until he looked in the mirror Mags and then things started to come back!!
