  1. Why are the three letters "T", "M" and "I" running around in my head at the moment...?
  2. My mention of birdseye maple about an hour ago made me think of the following monologue by Stanley Holloway (Of Albert and the Lion fame)...
  3. Looks yummy.
  4. I only get a sound when someone either reacts to one of my posts, or quotes me in a comment. Unless, I have accidently left the CoTT tab open in my browser. Then I do get a sound, plus an annoying little pop-up window in the bottom left of my screen. Probably something to do with my Notification Settings, but they don't annoy me too much, so I can't be othered finding out.
  5. Low flying ones?
  6. What Gary said.
  7. *Scratches head*
  8. I'm assuming lumber is what we would call timber over this side of the pond... Hence my earlier comment:
  9. $700 seems a lot to have to pay. But, if it's a mature tree, maple timber should be worth something. But paying someone else to cut it certainly sounds like a better idea than you standing on a chair trying to cut the branches... I right-click on View all notifications and open them in a new tab. Then I open each one separately in its own tab. I sometimes find I have to to refresh after posting a reply to a comment, otherwise I cannot post a new reply, or like any existing comments. Hey, Albert! So Glad to hear that drinking water helped to reduce the severity of the night cramps. ❤️ And a big hi to the rest of yous all, as well!!
  10. It's gone half past midnight here, gang... Gonna get some much needed beauty sleep. G'night all!
  11. I hope the toilet's not that high that you need to stand on a chair to pee, Gary....
  12. Xan's another wee charmer, isn't he? Just like you, Albert.
  13. This whole conversation makes me think of the opening six words of Mother's Little Helper by the Rolling stones...
  14. Maybe have a chat with her again? Particularly if the cramps have only just started, or if they are getting worse.
  15. We had around 21°C today. It's promised 25 tomorrow, but then should drop back to around 20 later in the week.
  16. Understood. Have you talked with the quack doctor about possible exercises? Maybe the gym? Indeed, I trust you have spoken to him about the night cramps?
  17. Gary's talking sense, @Albert1434 I know it may be difficult, particularly with the heat, to walk for long, but exercise really does help, and walking is one of the best forms of exercise. You could try swimming. That may be easier in the warm weather. But swimming usually exercises the arms more than the legs...
  18. *waves at @Page Scrawler*
  19. Maybe take a shower before retiring? And with the water as cool as you can stand it. Or a long soak in the bath might help. But certainly make sure you're taking in plenty of fluids, as Gary said. Not too much alcohol now, that causes dehydration. And dehydration can be one of the triggers for cramps...
  20. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear that, Albert Do you think it might be the hot weather that's causing the cramps?
  21. But I wasn't at all bored reading it, Gary...
  22. Hey, Albert! I hope you are feeling better today.
