I was watching a short documentary on Rita Moreno .. from the movie West Side Story and she is still going strong kicking up her heels and dancing. She is amazing and so agile for one born 1931...

Unlike Gins she wouldn't have slept in forever after a night out ..

I love the music from the show. Even Hamish McBeth - the police series had a few episodes where they were all rehearsing etc for their local show..

Glad you enjoyed it Sylvs... much better than dusting ;-)

Good morning everyone, hope that you are all well and having a great weekend!

Monday night here, tomorrow is Melbourne Cup Day, which is always good to watch.

Nice to be on holidays if only for a week. Spent the whole of today outside in the garden. We have had so much rain and sunshine, everything has grown madley and it all needed a big prune.

Anyone hope everyone is good :-)

Hi Grace, good to hear you sounding so 'chipper'. Obviously you are feeling much better.



My meeting? Am really very cross to be honest.


The new chairperson sends out the agenda and then doesn't turn up! So, the various reps from different departments within the Health Service and Social Services plus three parents, sit around and do what we can but no decisions can be taken. Such a waste of time and money.........no wonder this country's finances are in a mess if this is anything to go by Grrrrrrrrrrr

They must have believed me then!



I did say you were an asset to the site.




It was one of my off days!




:P




No Dea, no apologies were received - we sat there like numpties until one of the Social workers took charge assisted by the person from the NAS. Unfortunately though, no decisions could be made to move things on!! Image the money wasted if this sort of thing is common!!
