we used to have a chicken that would sit on golf ball type lamps,

it must have thought they were eggs!

highly comical once the lamp had been on for a while, especially the 100watt

Reminds me of the time my 99 year old angelic granny asked me to change her light bulb. Whilst I was balancing on a chair, struggling to fit the new bulb she said "If it had hair around it you would have no bother getting it in" As you can image, I almost fell off the chair in shock!

bulbs grow camp,

i once worked in a house locally and had a 16 year old apprentice with me .

 

the elderly lady conveyed to us the reason she had lost her teeth!

 

her reason was that her departed husband LOVED having a part of his body sucked ,

 

and sucked firmley

hence the loss of the teeth ,

the picture of disgust on his face was brill!!!!

do old people do that??????????????

 

made me laugh
