Random musings and general banter.

She has problems with iron. Needs supplements as causes her low mood and other health issues. Posts this on Youtube

I am anaemic but can’t take iron supplements for it, as it encourages more red blood cells making me more anaemic. I have to take iron through my diet alone.

Iron supplements=constipation!

It is incredibly hard to tie his age down. As has been said before, he has no direct social media footprint whatsoever. You can't trust Wikipedia to be definitely accurate on age, either. The Ronald McDonald video from Nottingham was from 1986. He looks beyond his earlier 20s in that - possibly later ones. But a red frizzy wig and clown face makeup applied makes it difficult to be sure. If I had to guess, I would put him somewhere where between 60 and 90. Man is a total enigma - along with other totals. Clearly - he prefers it that way.

He moves the age to suit himself. It's done purely to sell tat.

Clearly believes people will relate to all his ailments if he appears older.
He has claimed to be over 70, at other times over 60, lately said he's a pensioner, maintained he'd been on television for 50 years.

Mid-60s seems the most likely

Why does Pedro wear an apron on the cooking shows? Remember the blue one he had with a giant P on the front?

Well,far be it from me,but that ‘P’ could stand for many things ( some of which are unmentionable) but here’s a few:
Patronizing
Pathetic
Pigheaded
Prat
Petulant
Perplexing
Perfidious ( my fave)
puzzling
Peculiar

And probably I guess the main reason is cos it smells of Pee..who knows?

He doesn't look that young, for all the supplements he says he is taking. He dresses like man at C&A, and looks ridiculous in skinny jeans. My husband is 70, but looks at least ten years younger than Pedro. When he gets his hair cut, he pays full price, because the hairdresser says he doesn't qualify for pensioners rates, and he won't put her right! Vanity!

Trevor of the Arseholes asking Mike about the Goddess’s health!

He should be more concerned with his own mental health with all the watches and other crud that he buys

Batteries

I’m so glad to see the new stock - batteries, crap vacuums and dehumidifier pots from Poundland

They received a text from Jessica from Greendale and Mike clocked it

 

[galesgal57]

Greendale! Mike picked straight up on the Postman Pat connection..

Greendale! Mike picked straight up on the Postman Pat connection..

That was me.

 

[Jazzydrury]

If Mike got the Greendale, why didn’t Peter get Trumpton

 

[Scraping the barrel]

That was me.

No it wasn’t. It was Postman Pat (I live in fantasy land same as Mason of the Mikes)

Better than nothing I suppose

Me neither, never tried it. I can't stand being near smokers.

I don't condone smoking, but it's odd. Whilst my father was alive, I lived with it all day: as it were. Took not a blind bit of notice of the smell. Yet, working in and or visiting a no smoking area, although 'to me' it didn't smell any different, when someone walked in who smoked, by goodness could you smell it. You been for a smoke: or as I call them, cancer sticks. Yes. Thought so. Weird: it hits ya.

 

[Duke of Cheese]

Caroline Luck. Clearly theirs never runs out. The ASA couldn’t give a fu..luck in general.

What is that vile shyte on his demonstrating board. Stilettos for tarts with doll-sized feet? Apparently each one costs a fortune of money- as opposed to a fortune of turds.. I’ve seen more plausible hoopla stalls. Never have I seen so much crap outside a sewage works. Why are they mentioning a perfume manufacturer that presumably has absolutely nothing to do with the items they are selling? Gentlemen …Fat bloke with his flies undone, subconsciously trumping in front of the television… Public Conveniences….It’s a VERY IMPORTANT DAY COMING UP? Trumps again…
