Stiff upper lip and all that Sue, this too shall pass, maybe not soon enough, but it will eventually! As for Steve starting an argument in an empty room, my family have been saying that about me for many years now, and although I hate to admit it, it's probably true! I collect Leah Stein brooches, and my son even bought me the one named 'Quarrelsome Cat'! I wish I knew what Kelley means by 'Crying Uncle', I assume it's an Americanism, but I have no idea what it's all about! X
Thanks Joyce, That's another one sorted! I know a lot of the food name differences; Coriander/Cilantro, Courgette/Zucchini, Aubergine/Eggplant,Candy Floss/Cotton Candy, Smoked Salmon/Lox, Porridge/Oatmeal, Chips/Fries etc, but Crying Uncle had me Befuddled/Confused! x

Some days just have to be endured. Sending positive thoughts for a better day tomorrow. Hope the thumb is settling and not too painful. Hugs x

I feel your pain. Hope things are a bit better soon. We will still be here.
You sound to be having a tough time - hope soon that things improve all round.
I'd be crying Uncle real loud, just in case
Poor Beano! Hope he feels better soon. Hope you have a better day tomorrow.

I too was perplexed by crying uncle.
“Crying uncle”. Just means “ I give up!”. Didn’t know it was peculiar to us Yanks

When it rains it pours. I hope Beano feels better soon. Here's to better days for you and everyone. 2020 SUCKS!
I googled "crying uncle" after my comment (should have done it before my comment!). I have never heard that saying before.
I suppose the British equivalent is "Oh, for crying out loud!"
Look after yourself, Hester, you know where your friends are (when you can get a decent internet connection)
