I'm actually astonished to hear this, seeing how it seems that every Brit, from the day they're born, ends up playing a lot of 'football' throughout their lives! That sounds like a lot of activity to me . . .

Well evidently the census tells us what is news Naut. I expect it refers to the old folk who go shopping in the morning and take a nap after lunch. Thirty years ago they would have all have hung up their clogs by now. They also go to funerals. I suspect they are  also including those on benefits, they can lie in bed all day after signing on. Why it is a hive of activity around here when the post man delivers the circulars.

A very fitting response there by Ms. Donnelly.

I am a bit scared this winter that I am sitting too much. Rewriting a book and browsing around blogit has turned me into a snow ball. I really anm not getting any real exercise.

That does not include our CCT! It seems CCT should visit Ms. Donnelly she appears a bit bored. You can't be bored and hang out with CCT.

If everyone's staying in bed, that just leaves CCT to plant the seeds,

harvest the flowers, make the jam and water the cat.
