The trouble is that those who don't know where this rubbish comes from are likely to believe it.

Carp indeed, food the masses that also down load the facebook app which tells you how and when you will die! (apparently gullibility is not on the list)

There is definitely a pattern to the time of year suicides occur and around the new year there is a peak so I would not completly dismiss this.

Blue Monday by Fats Domino

Blue Monday how I hate Blue Monday
Got to work like a slave all day
Here come Tuesday, oh hard Tuesday
I'm so tired got no time to play
Here come Wednesday, I'm beat to my socks
My gal calls, got to tell her that I'm out
'Cause Thursday is a hard workin' day
And Friday I get my pay
Saturday mornin', oh Saturday mornin'
All my tiredness has gone away
Got my money and my honey
And I'm out on the stand to play


Sunday mornin' I'm feelin' bad
But it's worth it for the time that I had
But I've got to get my rest
'Cause Monday is a mess

My wife got locked in a toilet at a golf club yesterday :Slap: :o :giggle:
Took about 10 mins to get her out - the pro with a big screw driver
I thought it was hilarious :lol:

She didn't................................... :wink:

"Blue Monday" - By New Order

How does it feel
To treat me like you do
When you've laid laid your hands upon me
And told me who you are

I thought I was mistaken
I thought I heard your words
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how do I feel

Those who came before me
Lived through their vocations
From the past until completion
They will turn away no more

And I still find it so hard
To say what I need to say
But I'm quite sure that you'll tell me
Just how I should feel today

I see a ship in the harbor
I can and shall obey
But if it wasn't for your misfortunes
I'd be a heavenly person today

And I thought I was mistaken
And I thought I heard you speak
Tell me how do I feel
Tell me now how should I feel

Now I stand here waiting

I thought I told you to leave me
While I walked down to the beach
Tell me how does it feel
When your heart grows cold

Your too late I'm afraid - I retired in April 2024 :sun:
