Morning all

Its really dull here at the moment, but i'm putting the washing out anyway as I haven't washed for days now and my basket is full!

Want to track down some JML door screen that my daughter saw in asda £9.99, but they've sold out now. I'm thinking Wilkinsons next. I like to have the patio doors open when its nice but can't stand it when the flies come in..so I'm on a mission now. I couldn't get anything like this when Gels was here as she would have freeked out and never gone out again (the wuss that was my dobie dog bless her).

So, have a good day everybody.

Lynn,
Thankyou. Never know if its ok just to hop on,but you guys seem to have a blast on here.Psychiatric evaluation needed in some cases I suspect,but then again in that respect I'll probably fit right in!!

Morning Lynne glad the pain seems to of eased today.
I hope it continues to get better for you.

Morning Moyra I shall keep fingers crossed the rain holds off for you so the washing dries
I hope Steve isn't bringing the eels home for you too cook.
Morning Gill good luck with tracking down the fly screen. if they are the ones I am thinking of I have seen them in garden centres too.

It most certainly is ok to just hop on and off if you have the time we are always pleased to see you. if you are busy and canot manage one day that's fine we look forward to seeing you when you do have time.
you have to be a bit mad to survive here.

Norma I get it now thanks. I hope it isn't too draining.

Ok where did the weekend go ? Saturday in a foreign county in the wind, showers in Lancashire & Sunday trying to recover & having to drive through the rain & floods to collect all the printing etc for our show in 3 weeks time-need a rest from the weekend I think LOL

Quite overcast here today and there is a chance of rain.
Enjoyed my day off yesterday, but today have to catch up with all the stuff I ignored whilst I got stuck into the sort out I ended up doing. Lit the fire last night because I had found so much rubbish stuff that it had to be burnt, and I thought oh well its cooler than it has been so chucked some wood on as well.
Eileen we often have a laugh and a silly session when we get together after the 'watershed' and alcohol deffo wasn't involved on my part
Am hunting high and low for my hay fever tablets this morning, no idea what I've done with them I've still got some Benedryl that I bought the other week whilst I was waiting for the doctor's prescription to be ready, so I better have one of them, that's the worst of tidying up and having a clear out, you can never find anything after.
I think the river is going to be too high for us to go on today and the weather isn't looking as though its that good, its saying sunny intervals, although where the sun is at this precise moment I don't know.
Pat all that heat sounds lovely to me, if you cut it in half and sent half over here it would still be nice and warm over there and we'd be warm as well
Oh Malka you will need a brain transplant after all that as soon as you show a sign of life, its the same every month, you would think by now that a beam of light would have entered her head wouldn't you. No wonder you want to go back to bed, a late night having a larf with us lot, and then waking up to all that. You're probably back in bed as we speak
TM, glad you're legs not as painful this morning, I said once the weather passed over it would ease off, and you have numbed it out of existence as well, once the red hot poker feeling has gone it will gradually disappear over the next few days as we have high pressure from Azores due here - according the weather forecaster bloke anyway.
Norma have you got work as well along with all the normal drudge type of stuff, can you pop my sheets into the rotary ironer for me please whilst you're there.
Hope you manage with all you have to do this week Bev, I do hope your boss gets you some help, have you asked him to lift the burden that has been dropped on you. Wonder exactly how many greys were out walking yesterday, will be interesting to see when all the numbers are in.
Thanks so much for my birthday greeting this morning Lynn, I also got an email with everybody's name on, too many to remember but thanks to everyone who did put their name on because I need the lift in spirits.

Wee dog is trained to "see them off!" and does so ferociously and one of the cats killed one once.. hateful birds and I am deterring them from nesting here, successfully.

Morning

Happy birthday June.

Malka - thanks for the steam mop reminders.

We had a nice family party yesterday but I ate too much and for some reason, feel even hungrier than usual today. Not good for my grand plan to lose half a stone!

Back to normal today - whatever that is!

I hope everyone is happy and healthy. The weather is a bit dull but could be worse!

Where I lived in Cornwall, the y forbade us to feed gulls as they did not want them crapping on their cars,, REALLY! I wrote this piece re seagulls having to wear luminous yellow disposable nappies AT ALL TIMES!

We get free allowance power here. They used to count units but now we simply get E35 each time, I think 2 months.
I am saving mine for the winter of course as we can do that; it carries forward

It is just basic arithmetic but my poor neighbour has not a clue how to do it. And I cannot go to bed early, can I, 'cos I have to stay up for Da Booga's 11pm meds and as that is only 9pm your time and this fred gets everso hinterestin' an' funny at that time, I do not wanna miss it.

So I say OK, another ten minutes and I will go to bed. Then another ten minutes. Sort of like my daughter always said "I just want to finish this page/chapter and then I will go to bed". Come to think of it, when I was that age and into knitting, it was "just another row and I will go to bed".

See?

Linda - I can never forget the reminders 'cos I have them on ReminderFox and it pops up the evening before to remind me, then again first thing in the morning! If I am not ready I hit Snooze for x minutes and it does not stop popping up until I have done them and then can hit Delete.
