I'd love to know what the full text said

It was a text to Mr C, so will still have it on my phone, let me go and look.

Cinds

I can't find it.  To be honest I'm shocked I deleted it, I usually only delete the OK type texts.

 

But it was when I had the stomach flu that was ging around and I text him to say 'I was going to be late in to work as I was puking and had horrendous dish otters'

 

Since then, any stomach upsets that flush out southwards are called dish otters. I have even down loaded a picture of a dish otter to text to him.

Who said it wasn't?

 

But the word dreamt is correct in the context of 'I dreamt about you last night' (obviously that's just an example, if I had dreamt about you last night I would have said "OH MY GOD I had a terrible nightmare last night)

Oh god that brings back a sad but funny memory from last year when Mr Cinds father passed away.  We had gone round to his house to start that awful process, anyway as we were walking around we noticed all of the clocks seemed to have stopped at a certain time, which was the time his father had passed away.  

 

After a brief moment of being a little freaked out, we realised the clocks hadn't actually stopped, but it was in fact THAT time of day.

I think you'll find that microwaves have always been around, however THE MICROWAVE OVEN may well have evolved as above.

 Hmmm....so how long am I going to live?

I was born right-handed, but have been left-handed since I was nine!
