Morning All,

Linda you had a lot of stuffing to do yesterday with that food !! LOL
just as well you went for that long walk with the dog ........

I eat too much yesterday ......because I couldn't get to sleep for ages and could feel too full up , mind you at the time you don't complain to yourself do you ..?

Its raining cats & dogs here ....awful weather, I have to do some washing so its in the dryer today job. I can hear the wind whistling down the Chimney's.

Hope you are all well today. feel sorry for Maddie & Pat at work in this weather .

Shelly boys will be boys......get him to make some omelets my grandson does when he's hungry. mind you they look like its been blown up in the pan , but he eats it .

marilyn what you meen get him to make an omelet

done even think that one nows how to make a cup of tea

blimy my fence is blowing like mad and it is to windy to go out there and fix it
and dont for get we get exta win from the tower block

AAAaaaagggghhhh, I've just spent ages typing a long post and it disappeared.

Sssshhh**

Right, I'll start again, but not typing the whole thing out again.

Stephen, I think you'll look very fetching with an eye patch and wooden leg, you could change your board name to Stephen Silver.

Maddie, if you ever try that Bum Butter on your face........... let me know if it works.

Marilyn, your meal sounded fabulous........ but I didn't like the sound of Shelly's toast.

Pat, I'm pleased you Googled Body Butter, I'd hate to think you put it on your bread.

Now we know why there was a short supply of WD40........ Mo's been drinking it.

Linda, you could have just pushed the extra party food down the cyber hatch, we would have finished it off for you. Poor Shelly had to make do with burnt toast with no butter on.

Rita, hope Mike gets home today.

It's blowing a gale here, wonder if I dare put the washing on the line, it might blow away.



Edit: By the way............. I think you're all mad on this thread, I was laughing out loud reading all your posts. Gave me a good start to a Monday morning.

This one is for Shelly and her grave stones

found in the church year list of 1770's

burials". A Vagrant " " A Poor Women from Ireland " " A Stranger "

" The Cobblers wife from Kilburn "

I have found these in my researching Willesden for St Marys Church.I wonder how many more there are like this.?

Another funny thing was searching the 1545 Sanctus bells of St Marys they were arguing what the inscription was inside the bells it was in Latin.. they use to meet in a pub for the meetings so they could have a drink the pub was named The five Bells when they added another bell to St Marys in the Tower they renamed the Pub "The Six Bells "
I thought this was so funny.
just shows you what you can find if you have the time.

I finished all my washing it is all dry and out away now. I looked in on thread and will noe get my dinner ready. be back later.

Rita

Rita

Just heard Mike is coming out of hospital this afternoon he is waiting for his medications to be sorted out.

I have a tooth ache and I have not had one for years.

Rita

Good news about Mike, Rita, bad news about your toothache.
I blame Marilyn for your toothache, she's the one that started that trend of.
The same as Shelly started us all with that cold/flu virus. LOL

I wonder if Jean is composing her piece for the writers thread. I did read that she was thinking of joining it.

Evening All. Full George Dixon mode.

See the Census jobs above. I dunno, imagine if you were asked into someones house, and were never heard of again. Big dodgy I reckon.

Hope everyone is well and warm.

Lor, it was blowy today. I walk along a main road to get to work, it is a great wide expanse, with four lanes of traffic. It was two steps forward, and one step back. I dont know why I bothered to comb me barnet at all this morning. I looked as if I had been pulled through a hedge backwards. lol

Wont be back on again tonight, I have some sewing to do. If I dont make an effort, it will never be done. Just call me Susie, sewing shirts for sailors.

Good evening and Good Night all.

I've got a date with four Nuns in a Convent this evening.

Now, I bet that's got you wondering - or, maybe not!

Oh me gord,Stephen, if we who have broomsticks applied for the job,we would be able to cover the whole country in one night,especially if we are accompanied by Fluffy Paws+Co as our body guards.

Maddie, it was bad enough years ago, when I had a job of delivering leaflets, let alone doing census forms.
We never knew who we were going to meet at the doors, and the big dogs we encountered, well to say we would do a runner is putting it mildly.
Many a time we would put the leaflet through the door, only to have it snatched from the other side by a dog.
Nite nite Susie sewing shirts for sailors, speak to you tomorrow.

Mo some of the people were saying they had aleady had their census
forms, I think if I recall Linda is one.?
I searched the net and found nothing saying they had been deleivered or maybe posted to people as I understood they were not being sent out till March , it appears you will be able to do the forms on line.
So I dont have any idea what is going on.? I think the advertising might be collecting the forms. but not sure.


we have a magazine come every quarter to our flats from A nchor and they told us before Christmas to apply for a part time of full time job if we wanted too.

I wish they would tell us what is happening. you would think they would give this a top of the list information stamp

Rita

there use to be a wine called Four Nuns ? I seem to recall.

is that what you are referring too Dermot.

Rita

NUNS......have a laugh at this.

I used to do some repairs for our local Convent to help keep their costs down.

Leaving Church one Sunday a voice calls over to me somewhat loudly.

'Stephen, I'll see you over in my bedroom in about ten minutes'

A hushed crowd looked at me then at SISTER Pauline, a young Nun on a visit to our area
.
The sink in her bedroom was choked.

Boy was my face red !

Sister Pauline slipped quietly away.

My daughter still laughs about it even after a good number of years.
