I will have an ear worm in my head now about Radox causing urinary tract infections. Brilliant. Thank you.

This is hilarious 🤣 I loved the bit about Radox and 💩 pipes and ‘old stools’ 😂 As for a Guinea fowl called Fiona Watson - LMAO 🤣

i think Fiona Watson is a lovely name for a Guinea Fowl. or perhaps a chicken. i will pass it along to my daughter, who has chickens.

and during trying times, humor is self-care! thank you for sharing your laughs (between you and Tom Cox (The Villager), i get at least one a day.)

and please continue to take tender care of your heart.

"Well hello Fiona Watson, what nice plumage you have!" She can be one of Lady Gaga's new backup dancers. 😜

I really want you to sell that stool for big bucks now! Fiona Watson is indeed a beautiful Guinea fowl 😄 I’ve had this stuck in my head for approximately the last 7 hours (you’re welcome) https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iR2tIyj8_y8

It is a catchy tune and it will make a change from the Beatles for a while!

My friend told me the story when she was a child and her dad was driving, lost in the city centre. He had the idea to follow a bus and said Susan what does it say on that bus, and she replied BOVRIL! and she got smacked😥

Love the guinea fowl. Fortunately I'm not a Beatles fan or that would lodge pretty quickly. My most frequent ear worm, usually arriving while I'm in the shower, and I have absolutely no idea why it haunts me, is 'Onward Christian Soldiers.' Sabine Baring-Gould has a lot to answer for.
