Hw would have loved that clothes were not very warm in the old days some old guy was knocked down by a car. I remember his wife telling me that the doctor said it was the three overcoats that he was wearing saved him from a bad injury.

Oh, I love this story - it's a visit to a whole 'nother time and place.
I would love to send Uncle Arthur a nice crocheted hat and scarf to help keep the chill away.

Old tales from old men told to me when I was a boy Bro. Yes cute about the flowers I expect if we were bees we would be diving into any old honey pot.

Re: Taps
No a Mum they do make an insecticide from similar species so perhaps that's why.
I think I would go for the silk sheets if I had a choice Taps.

It's a hard life for some people in this world...Others have silk sheets, duvets and butlers waiting on them. Doesn't seem fair, but it is fun to read your stories.

Almost sounds like you lived with Charles Dickens and all Bro, with workhouses and all. I never knew that about the bees knowing what flowers not to touch.

Sounds like Uncle Arthur had it a bit rough for a while. And when you're cold, there's no such thing as a 'quick' tiddle . . .
