Sometimes I feel like I'm getting too old to instruct anyone on anything, but why should that stop me?

TPBM is suffering from a cold and can't remember whether to starve it or feed it. (Perhaps I should try drowning it.)

Nope. Perfect 'elf at the moment.

TPBM knows it's starve a cold and feed a fever.

Very true, but try to tell the boffins that keep on changing their minds about anything medical /health wise.

TPBM believes in plain good old fashioned common sense.

Most definitely, but it's in short supply and application of it is often in violation of some idiot's Ooman Rights.

TPBM remembers what was the best thing before sliced bread came along.

Not quite, but my mother used to refer to a hot water bottle as "the next best thing." Never understood what she meant when I was a littlie.

TPBM hates having cold feet put on any part of their body.

True - especially on one part of me anatomy.

TPBM can't wait for Summer!

It was 86F/30C here yesterday, I think it's already arrived. the dogs were not impressed, all melted on the floor trying to keep cool.

TPBM doens't like hot weather.

Don't mind the heat, but hate high humidity Presently 24 here, sunny, perfect Autumn weather.

TPBM dislikes extreme weather of any sort.

Hate cold wx in all forms whether extreme or not. Don't mind extreme hot as long as the humidity is quite low.

TPBM likes online demand videos e.g. Netflix etc.

No, because we have no telly and slooow Internet.

Busy downloading films to watch when we get back to Bots using the tavernas wifi

TPBM likes walking in the mountains when all the spring flowers are in full bloom

Sounds tiring!

TPBM deep down would rather hoon around on a Harley in the mountains.

Nope, prefer the peace and quiet even if the birds are a bit on the loud side.

TPBM likes a change of scenery every now and then. Especially if good food, wine and company is involved.

So true. Am able to enjoy those three in most surroundings, even a big city.

TPBM believes that the three best things in life are a glass of wine before and a dip in the hot springs after.

Champagne, dear boy! Before and after. And in my case, a hot tub.
..and the best thing before sliced bread was...linoleum, according to my maternal grandmother. Anyone who has scrubbed a stone kitchen floor in January will agree.
TPBM believes in "Everything in moderation, including moderation."

True.

TPBM believes some excess indulgence is deserved now and then.

Not just deserved, it's a physical an psychological necessity.

TPBM believes that nothing exceeds like excess.

Yes! Indeed.....I frequently demonstrate this...perhaps a litle too often.....can't explain a burn on the left hand or a sore thumb that felt broken 6 weeks ago, and still hasn't healed properly (thought it was a bad sprain but it is still giving me bother)

So that is excess not exceeding...but often it does...

TPBM appreciates the sound of Birdcall in the morning...except sometimes the lil feckers start a little too early!

Nah. Hate the twittering noisy buggers. I cop hundreds of 'em back home yelling and squawking at me when I go for a morning run at dawn.

TPBM likes to be awaken by the smell of yummy scrambled with bacon coming from the kitch.

....from the NEW Kitch!

Nah...that doesn't happen...I cook it! LOL

TPBM also loves smoked herrings on toast for Breakfast

Never smoked herrings [cough...hack] let alone put any on toast!

TPBM believes wimmin are much better at cooking up a yummy hot brekky than blokes.
