Look after yourselves.

The nights are getting darker and the weather is getting colder and shittier. It can sometimes be a difficult time for people who feel lonely, or miss relatives and friends who have passed away. There's been a lot of tragedy lately, the country is going to shit under the Tories and the Brexit shit is driving people into division. Lot of homeless people, lot of people struggling. Not a good time for the old mental health either.

But in times like this it's important you all try and see the positives. Don't rely too much on drink and drugs (moderation eh?) and make an effort to see friends and speak to your loved ones. Don't let the fuckers in power grind you down. Don't dwell on negative thoughts (they pass, they always pass, even if you at the time think they won't. They will). It'll soon be Spring and you'll 'reet.

Do something every day you enjoy. Even if that's just listening to your favourite music or sharing silly jokes or watching something interesting or learning to play the flute or 'summat. And try and do something nice for someone else.

Soz if I sound like 'one of those guys'. But not a proper soz.

Look after yourselves! X


(Random funny image to comply with the 'comedy' aspect of the forum. Although we're laughing with the goose, not at it etc..)

Thank you.  I think it's especially worth repeating to try to do something nice for someone else, this is good advice.  Self care is important but treating other people well is a part of this, and that often gets overlooked when we're struggling with our various bits and pieces.

Don't just look after. Look before.

I applaud your sentiments Kryton but I'm afraid I'm definitely laughing AT that goose.

For anybody that gets pissed off at this time of year, listening to Marleys songs like Rebel Music and 'ting should be mandatory.

Lovely post.  You too  Kryters.

Lovely sentiments to warm the cockles of my ailing heart and a goose with the utmost of decorum.  What more could anyone possibly ask for in life?  Nothing, that's what.  Pure perfection.

Only for another week, when the days start getting longer again. Moderately fun fact: today was the year's earliest sunset.  I'm not brainy enough to explain why the year's earliest sunset occurs 8 days before the solstice so I'll leave you with a joke.

I approve of this message, and the funny goose dressed like the queen.
(90% of this approval is dependent on the goose queen)

She's a goosey, Queen

Took the thread's advice, had a bacon sandwich for tea and off to bed early.

Fair play, Kryton - and that goose is the icing on the cake!

You too, Kryton. All the rubbish in the news is definitely enough to get anyone down. Let's do some good stuff.

Trying to ingest this thread just waking up at 6am whilst on yhe shitter, preparing for another boring day at a job I despise.

It helped a little bit.

The lovely goose looks like the reincarnation of Sir Barbara Cartland.

You're a good lad, Kryton. This is what's to be expected of someone from the North-West.

Thank you for your kindly words to us all.

I'm not learning to play the flute. Sorry but a line has to be drawn somewhere.

Small Man Big Horse

That's a lovely post Kryton, especially given how bleak General Bullshit has been of late, and I hope all is okay with your good self too.

Get off the internet and stay away from the news. It's making you think everything's turning to shit when it isn't really.

Love this forum but fuck me it's not much fun at the moment. If you're not in a good place, then I doubt hanging around in here a lot is going to help much.

That goose is wearing a dress hahaa.
