Feel Better:Complain About Anything

@Joannie - yes, this thread is addictive. Mostly for the reason that we seem to have attracted some intelligent and interesting posters who either have lived or still do live interesting lives.

A lot of cudos must go to @NoBoDe who is the (young) Grand Daddy of this thread and keeps it going - he is always present to post interesting or entertaining things, the content is rarely controversial; he is also remarkably modest and self-effacing - at least on this thread () - and has learnt that less is o.k., too and still appreciated.

Re keeping 'my bib out or in' - maybe that's just me with a misunderstood colloquialism (I am quite ashamed, but will keep it for laughs)

well - it is Australian, after all -
"To involve oneself in an intrusive or nosy manner into something that is not one's business or responsibility. Primarily heard in Australia."

Astra:I have only had one jab, next one is due on Tuesday 31/8 - I did talk to my doctor about having it earlier, but he suggested not do this.

I actually think 'they' don't know all that much about it, but we know even less, so here we are trusting our medics.

I have had a look at that website you suggested - and I am signing on! Thanks This morning heard on ABC that stock market is doing well, and particularly some metal stocks are doing well, above all lithium and anything to do with battery production.Maybe I'll buy some Liontown shares after all, even though I won't get the huge benefits everyone on this thread has reaped. Good on you on purchasing for $.44!!
Take care, too, JoJo

Ah so Bib is Strayan. I am still learning some of the slang which is quite hilarious!
Yes @NoBoDe s thread is great. He posts such interesting things.
I have already learned such fascinating information, this evening eg about wallpaper and celluloid.

Celluloid interests me, because I have collected many antique bits and bobs. Many I knew were made from bakelite and small objects from celluloid.

Yes we are a nice group here. We all have such different experiences, a bit like a box of liquorice allsorts and can learn interesting things from each other. Very civilised and non confrontational

I had an appt at lunchtime today with a new "medical man".
He was assigned to me by my wonderful male nurse as he was an older man who has a better understanding of mature peoples needs.
He was real old school, such a gentleman it was a zoom meeting.
When it reached the end, I told him that if he was in the room that I would have given him a big hug, which made him smile.
I explained about the wonderful help which I was so lucky to receive from women on a forum. He was very interested and thought that after 38 years of going round in circles and not really getting very far, that this was just what I needed.
A little like the old days. When you had problems, you could chat to a dear friend or neighbour instead of going for "professional help"

Yes, although the stock market was up today, nearly all of my stocks dropped drastically because they are mainly in the minerals industry and it was a bad day for these.
But I managed to buy some LKE for 50c. Funnily enough when the market is down, my shares tend to go up.
I am glad that you signed up for swingtradebot, I have not signed up or anything I just use the free part, so it would be interesting to hear your experience of this.
I checked and my average for LTR is 46.5c but yes that is good. I hope you do well with yours if you buy them.

Take care my friend.
