BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE

There are occasions when you feel that you’re hitting your head against a brick wall. Every time you attempt something it all goes wrong.

The secret is either to find another way to reach your destination …….. or carry some dynamite . I think I’ll just turn left and see where it goes ……

    I favour the dynamite approach

    c’est la vie the big boulder in the path …. yes there is always dynamite or rocking gently in a corner lol

    daddyp replied:

    The ‘rocking gently in a corner’ sounds like a good option ……… ROCK ON TOMMY!

    the other option is to work S.M.A.R.T er… if I could remember the initials ??

    oh yes
    Specific
    Measurable
    Agreed
    Realistic
    Timely

    that is not the answer btw .. rocking quietly in a corner works so much better ;-)

    I just knew you’d get upset with one of those bricks you were talking about but there was no need to throw it into the middle of the road! Now he is all broken up.

    Oh, on another subject, Lou Gottlieb was the lead singer of the Limelighters.

    Thanks Archie – you’re a brick – a glass of madeira?

    Oooooerrrr – no ta, ducky, I’m not like that at all.

    daddyp replied:

    I quite like madeira …… in a manly way of course …. tis a bit pricey though …..

    I’ve always thought those red & white plastic barriers are easier to set up.

    daddyp replied:

    Yes, but if you’re drunk driving, they just don’t stop you as effectively ……..

    Do you think there’s a memo on a ‘Highway Department’ desk somewhere, that says, “order stronger cliff netting” ?

    daddyp replied:

    Oooooo – I’ve only just noticed you’ve got an avatar ….. is that snow?

    gitwizard replied:

    Vintage 2000, a very good year for it (actually in the Tatra mountains, every year’s a good year for it).

    daddyp replied:

    Polish or Slovakian side? Not that I’ve heard of them of course but I have discovered the power of ‘google’.

    gitwizard replied:

    People usually guess it’s Zakopane,Poland, think the third tree on the left is the give-away.

    fracas replied:

    gitwizard’s url is daddypapersurfer.com

    Does this mean you have finally accepted your other personalities, or do you have a houseguest… and why wasn’t I told about this? Will I have to retrieve twice as many papers from the floor now?

    I may need new shoes for this…

    … or even a second shoe

    daddyp replied:

    Gitwizard is being tantalizing – the IP is in Holland. If anyone can discover more young Fraccy – you’re the gal for the job [this tape will self destruct in 5 seconds] .5.4.3.2.1…… [or not]

    gitwizard replied:

    They seek him here etc.
    The last time I looked, my IP was in Barnsley, it’s a mystery……..just sayin’.

    daddyp replied:

    That’s a shame – somewhere in Holland sounds more exotic …… in a way ….. tulips are less romantic than Scarlet Pimpernels though ….

    fracas replied:

    I see… gitwizard is artificially planting the daddypapersurfer url into the ‘website’ field box when posting comments.

    Hmm. Since we can’t see the IP addy’s (those are only in your control panel) that would lead me to believe gitwizard is messing with you, dear old git.

    Perhaps this is a case for Bond… Jane Bond

    daddyp replied:

    People always mess with me – I quite like it Ms Bond ………

    Wise decision!

    daddyp replied:

    I thought so Stinky – I don’t want to cause a kerfuffle ……..

  8. Posted March 5, 2009 at 2:07 pm | Permalink

    Great advice….I’m going left as well!

    daddyp replied:

    How very sensible ……. for a bra ………

    I like the idea of turning myself. Just think of the new things that could appear…

    gitwizard replied:

    Tried leaving comment on your excellently designed blog, along lines of: farm, organic, wwoof.
    But your blog provider wasn’t taking it, so I came back here,(much more user-friendly).Welcome, Celeste.

    daddyp replied:

    I reckon there could be a dragon down there Celeste or a gingerbread house!!!!!! – let’s go …….

    Celeste replied:

    Gingerbread house sounds good if I can have a glass of milk too.

    gitwizard replied:

    hello again Celeste,
    Steve from UK, here , do you take wwoof volounteers on your farm ?

    daddyp replied:

    I’m sure we’ll be able to find some milk ……. and CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!

    Celeste replied:
