Annette Kerton Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 Dear Mr B, or may I call you 'Monty', without the risk of sounding too familiar. My problem is relaxation, I am just so uptight all the time. My job does not help, I work very late hours at the club and the dancing is physically very demanding. My doctor gave me a thorough examination the other day when I said I had a bit of a discharge, of course it wasn't until he had me laying down and the plastic gloves on, that I was able to tell him it was in my ear! My mother always said that the best GP's are the ones who are good at diagnosis. The music is very loud and I am sure my eardrum has been damaged. Anyway he said that my diurnal (is that how you spell it?) rythmn is upset, but I replied that not having a regular bofriend at the moment, I don't use contraception. Neither am I a catholic! My solicitor told me a joke once that it is black people who have the rythmn, but the Catholics that need it! But I think it might be something to do with me not getting to sleep. I don't want to take sleeping pills and i think drinking a few glasses of wine before going to bed is a bad habit to get into. At least now that I have found this forum I can spend my waking hours doing something productive,like checking out the recalls for my Picasso, which incidentally I call 'Percy'. Percy Picasso.... isn't it a shame the artist wasn't called that, much nicer than boring old Pablo? Thank you Monty, I really am in your hands as to resolving my amnesia, or is it insomnia, I get so forgetful....must because I am so tried. Lots of love X Annette X Quote
johnmoran Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 Just "twigged" the alias - very good! - it takes me longer these days but I get there in the end! (but I don't like to talk about it!). John :D :D :D :D :D :D Quote
johnmoran Posted February 26, 2003 Posted February 26, 2003 I think this restlessness is all in the mind - the only thing you can do is "pull yourself together!" John :D :D :D :D :D Quote

Annette Kerton Posted February 28, 2003 Author Posted February 28, 2003 Dear Mister B No one is making fun of you! This is doing nothing for my self esteem. Quote
MisterB Posted February 28, 2003 Posted February 28, 2003 This is doing nothing for my self esteem. Ms/Mr Kerton/Hornblower or whatever you are calling yourself today. Websters Dictionary defines self-esteem as follows: n 1: a feeling of pride in yourself [syn: {self-pride}] 2: the quality of being worthy of esteem or respect: "it was beneath his dignity to cheat"; "showed his true dignity when under pressure" [syn: {dignity}, {self-respect}, {self-regard}] Referring to definition 2, and I quote; "..beneath his diginity to cheat" (where convention states that 'his' also can refer to 'her' or 'hers'), I fail to see how you have any self-esteem! You, sir (or madam) are clearly a deceiver, dissembler, hypocrite & sophist; a snake in the grass, cockatrice, wolf in sheep's clothing & perjurer; a false witness, menteur a triple etage, bunko steerer & carpetbagger; a capper, faker, fraud, & four flusher; a horse coper, imposter, pretender & soi-disant; a humbug, adventurer, Cagliostro & ass in lion's skin; a fraudster, charlatan, mountebank & saltimbanco; an empiric, quacksalver, medicaster & knave. Quite simply, a bad egg! Self-esteem? Pah!! Quote
Phil Leytio-Hornblower Posted March 3, 2003 Posted March 3, 2003 Ooooh you do go on love. Don't use one word when a hundred will do. Quote
Parsley Posted March 7, 2003 Posted March 7, 2003 Perhaps even Ben Doon or Phil McCaverty... or their cousins, Patrick Fitzgerald and Gerald Fitzpatrick... Quote
