Morning sleepy heads or wherever you are.

just done my exercises , need a coffee and then a shower. and then I need to attack a pile of ironing.
suns out at the moment but it's chilly I had to put the heating up a bit before I could get motivated.

Thanks for the pics Frank your garden is lovely, the tree's with all the blossoms are beautiful and you must have some lovely relaxing walks along the canal

coffee time. 9.41

Morning Mandy
you just got in before me.

Morning All,

Nice today blue sky and big white fluffy clouds in a cluster hanging on the breeze to dry!

Well I wrote to GR about my problem and they say it is me! or my browser. So no joy in that quarter. My first page number is still longer than the rest which means I cannot copy and paste things onto peoples threads. It happened on Sunday. That has put paid to my helping others and I am very upset.

Morning all,

Fresher morning here also Mel, Thats bad news from GR as you help so many people.

Ann the concrete posts come with grooves in the sides, the panels just slide in. Then if the panel gets damaged you can just replace it. !!!!

Fiona, be careful youy will meet your self coming back, you are a busy little bee.
Mandy will be sussing out all the bargains on the market, earliy bird and all that.

Morning All
Sleepyhead is the right word for me today lol

Mel I hope you manage to sort out your trouble.It seems weird that you somehow disconnect from the internet.

David that is great news for you and Ellen.I hope it is all plain sailing from now on.
Doorbell has just rung.BBL

My other half has has just told me that he upgraded my browser to IE 9 on Sunday and that as usual GR just ignores the fact that they have'nt upgraded themselves.

Apparently the whole world is wrong and GR is right!!!!

Ros wen't to get Lewis this morning, (they meet halfway) I made a sausage sandwich and a bacon sandwich for Harvey, for his breakfast. and had Lewis's Bacon sarnie ready for him when he arrived here.

We have had cloud all morning, and it's turning cooler. Looks like we might get a drop of the wet stuff.

Going up to Rutland on thursday for the afternoon and dinner.
Conrad and Jan, are taking on a new area selling properties in Thailand So have a lot to learn. about the products and area.

Ros's Saturday shopping friend has knitted another 15 chicks, so will have to get another basket for the new hatchlings !!!! It looks like there will be SIXTY chicks and TWENTY bunnies. on top of that they have made a lot of net bags, and have put eggs in those too.!!! Lewis is going to help sell them on Friday. and Saturday. Looks like I will be left on my Todd.

David, pleased that the house sake is going to plan. Which house have you decided to go for ????

Doing a Sheep#### pie tonight with cabbage and carrots. nice and easy.

Well so much for me getting the bench stained , came back from the market ,thought i'd have a coffee then get started ,what happened DIL came with the little ones !!! ( i love seeing them really ,but it was just as i wanted to get on )

They have only just gone and now i'am not in the mind for staining , had to get them some lunch (good job i had a spare loaf in the freezer as i haven't done a good shop yet ) then they wanted to play outside on the ride on toys !!!
Have just cleared up and had another hoover through, although i had already done that first thing !! but the little ones drop bits when they sit up the table .

Oh well i'd better get my ironing done ,then sort some veg out for tea ,got the other half of the pie tonight .

Mel, what a shame about the copy and paste , you loved helping people out too, is there no way it can be sorted ?

Jane , that's where your bunnies have gone , Franks got them !!!lol all that lot i think you'll need two more baskets !!

Well here I am again and still no joy with GR.

I have been out in the garden taking up the chickens eletric fence while OH mowed all round it and then we put it all back again.

Came in and found this message on pc.

Dear Mel

Thank you for your email,

I am afraid IE 9 is not compatible with the site, this is why you may be having these problems. If you have the option to revert back to IE8 then this should work fine.

Sorry I cannot be of much help.


Kind Regards,

OH upgraded my pc on Sunday to Internet Explorer 9 and thats the problem because GR have not upgraded the site for this explorer!!!! You would really think they would keep the site up to date as they are always willing to take our money but don't provide the latest things!!

Hi Shirl nice to hear from you and hope you are keeping well.

Whats the weather like there now please?

17.37

So Lewis is with you Frank.He 'll keep you on your toes lol
Golly I have felt most peculiar today.Funny tummy ,puffy eyes and achy thumbs.I have been flopped on the settee most of the afternoon.I just watched an old Who do you think you are?,that I hadn't seen before.It was Natasha Kaplinski.A very moving story of her family.

Chris is home early for a change.Hannah is staying over in London so no picking her up from the station.I have 2 nice rump steaks for Dinner with potato wedges and asparagus,baby corn and peas.Not sure how much I will eat though.

Mel have you got your pooter problem sorted ?
Mandy I think now you have mentioned it I need to get staining some things

James just rang to say he will home on Saturday,and any chance of putting some money in his account for petrol lol.I will need to get him room ready,and get Hannah to remove all her shoes that she seems have dumped in there.

There is a lot of pollen flying around in the wind,and they seem to be spraying the fields opposite.

Glad you got the pics, Shirl do you mean the half naked man sitting in the chair in the garden, he no Tarzan, he's just my OH lol

Fiona Thanks for the lovely photographs.
Jane Hope you are feeling better and enjoyed your dinner.

Took the docs and the cheque this morning.
Matter of waiting now hoping prospective buyer doesn't drop out and that our offer on the semi bungalow is accepted.

Ellen's faulty tooth despite dentist's attention last Thurdsday its causing her pain.It's broken and she keeps catching her toungue or her lip on it..

Got an appt booked for Friday morning to have it extracted while under sedation.
She doesn't deserve it.
