While I can now slightly pick up my phone, my right arms is still numb from the elbow to finger tips after 2 days with the most noticeable weakness in my wrist. My hand kind of just hangs there. I doubt it was a stroke. Either way I was turned away from the hospital because I didn't want to pay 12,000 pesos for them to look at me. Likely a pinched nerve or something. Nearly impossible to type or eat. This post has taken 5 minutes already.

@FitnessDr_ I remember reading this around 2004 in a book by Larry Clapp. I washed my husband's towels every day but stopped bothering for myself when he died.

@DrSeanOMara I said this recently about plyo box jumping. I want to be able to jump without warming up to show that I can do something immediately. I'm told I'm wrong.

@klaravontrapp @DESI0RE Very relaxing and beneficial in many ways. My teacher also has crystal bowl sound healing events which have helped me. Everyone in the class is very supportive of each other too.

I’m a proud Boomer. Grew up on a council estate. We had a bath once a week - Sunday night. No central heating, no car, no washing machine, no freezer, no colour TV or landline until I was about 10. If my parents needed to make a call prior to 1972, they’d use the phone box down the road. I never once felt deprived but I’d often feel cold in the winter.

I'm often called a boomer, it's meant as a slight and usually comes from younger males who think we had it easy. They're posting from their double glazed homes with the heating on Fridges, multiple TVs, gym memberships, and they love playing on their X Box keeping their working hours under 21 per week so they can claim benefit The reality of being a boomer. We had parents who served in a war and suffered a further 10 years of food rationing so breast milk was scarce due to malnutrition. Being born in a cold damp house heated by a coal fire, your dad's army coat was used as surplus bedding. Vegetables were seasonal as were childhood diseases. We fought them all off Measles, Mumps, chicken pox and even scarlet fever. The countryside was a world away, and you only saw grass if someone in The street had a car and took you there as a weekend treat. We didn't need a computer to occupy our Sunny Delight hyper active minds, the journey, looking out of the window was the treat. We walked everywhere, We usually had just one fat kid in school not a full class of them with their allergies and syndromes. We had one special outfit known as our ' Best Clothes' and these were looked after like the robes of an ordained dignitary. Hygiene wasn't even a thing, there were no bathrooms, the toilet was at the bottom of the yard heated by a paraffin lamp to stop the pipes freezing. The only hot water was the kitchen sink with a water heater known as a geyser . Used frugally to keep costs down. Teachers smoked in schools, everyone smelled of nicotine. Windows weren't opened till May as heat was precious. Often the bills outweighed the income and were juggled for payment . No automatic washing machines or dryers, mangles were in the back yard to squeeze out the excess water after a dolly tub wash . You might have to research these items. If you wanted to learn you had to read books, there was no Google short cut . Communication was someone five doors down who might have a phone you could use as long as you took a threepenny bit to pay for it. The operator would put you through!. You didn't follow your dreams, you didn't dream, you just took a job to bring money into the house and tip up to your parents to help with the bills. No spa days no film star beauty treatments no weekends away or hen nights abroad, two weeks in Blackpool once a year if you were lucky. This went on till you could afford to start your own dreary journey of a life as a working class Brit in the very early 60s. This is the same generation now helping fund kids and grandkids education or house purchases because you've blown it on take aways, tattoos, designer clothes, stag nights that last longer than family holidays, and other such self absorbed bollox. Boomers have usually contributed at least 50 years of a 42 hour week so they can have time to themselves before some health issues steals what's left of their lives. So if choose to use social media mind your own business and get up your own end!

@anon_opin I also think Gastropubs should run supper clubs to include single people who wouldn't normally go in alone. Their trade is in decline we are told and I think there is a group of people who would make use of their facilities but don't do so at the moment.

Cafes and coffee shops should open in the evenings. Not everyone wants to drink alcohol or have a big meal at night and sometimes a coffee and cake would make a nice date.

@benquivenit I got on a bus near Cobh with a vague idea of where my aunt lived.I was talking to my husband about where I thought it was and a passenger overheard me. He asked her name, said he knew her and when we reached their house he pointed to it and I got off. Sure enough, there she was.

For a very brief time in human history, a few lucky generations of children during the second half of the 20th century were allowed to actually be children.

@LeandadeLisle I had a friend who was a picture framer and one day a client came in to ask if her item was ready as she had left it with him 3 weeks prior. He said "Sorry but no. You didn't say you wanted it urgently".

One widely used oil has built a healthy reputation, but new questions are being raised about its long-term impact. What guides your choices when it comes to oils and supplements?
