Great minds think alike Pat, I am also having Chicken Curry.

Hi Everyone.

Cath ....Well your not going to believe this .....but I'm also having bubble and squeak ..LOL
I had so many roast potatoes & veg over from yesterday that I wouldn't ever throw away knowing bubble & squeak would be yummy !! So I have got a really cheap dinner tonight with slices of Cornbeef :-D

Agatha, Whats wrong with your breathing ?

Funny but since Amy Whinehouse death I seem to like all her songs ....I never ever took much notice of her before as the look of her put me off !! , but I can honestly say I have been listening to her records that Pete has put on my Ipod player.and I'm sad now that she has died...

Just got back from Shopping and bought a new top !! I didn't really need it but it was saying BUY ME PLEASE :-P

Afternoon everyone or whoever is there.

Spent the day at Portsmouth and Southsea, good day.

George :-)

I do that George I go for the day by train from Woking Station down to Portsmouth or Southsea, it is a nice day out and does not take me long to get there., I sit near the Victory eating fish and chips from the fish shop at the back of where I usually sit.talking about fish and chips while I was on holiday on the I O W there was a fish shop which had me in stitches it was name " The Cod Father "


Rita

Hello Rita,

Yep, it was a nice relaxing day, just what I needed.

I was near Woking last week, went to see an old friend who lives just outside guildford, well he picked me up in his car.....lol. seeing as I don't drive.

George.

Hi George

I live in Goldsworth Park Woking. I go to The Royal Surrey Hospital every three months near Guildford.

I have a senior train pass cost went up this year so it saves me some money. and I can get to lots of places from Woking Station. I miss Waterloo as you use to be able to get the Eurostar there. and could go though to France.even for one day.didnt take long.

Rita

Evening folks,
Marilyn the bubble and squeak was lovely :-D Hope you enjoyed yours too. Ours was from a huge pile of yesterdays roast leftovers as well.
Rita I haven't had any luck with my research interests as yet but I'm always hopeful, lol. Eternal optimist me :-D :-D :-D By the way, I came across an Absolom Lee while looking for one of my Saunders lot, have you found yours yet? The one I found was on a Romany site.
Had lots of messy fun with the little uns and the chalk this afternoon but my hair is stiff with dust :-S
Must be sure to double check my alarm tonight as I don't want to be late again tomorrow.
Dermot do you know anything about Westmeath? Have found some ancestors in Athlone.

Going up the tree for a while, back later,

Cath xx

Linda ...How are you today ? any more dizzy spells ?

Agatha,,,,,Rita will be pleased if you have found her Absolom, oh my god she might get too excited , break it to her gently ..LOL

We have loads of tree's in our back garden, I keep finding birds ripped to pieces and the chicks laying about dead, I wish I could stop the cats getting in
I didn't find Absolom, Cath did

Agatha.....I need new glasses ..LOL

I have just picked up an chicks egg on my patio not sure who it belongs to, it looks rather big for a small bird ...hmm .

Still lovely and warm here ...

Hi GRMarilyn,

Yep, did have company in Portsmouth, and lovely she was too....lol
Actually my old legs arnt too cleaver, I think I could probably do with a zimmer frame sometimes....lol

I think Stephen is ironing the pleats on his kilt, and I don't know anything about Dermot..lol.

George :-D :-D :-D ;-)

I don't want to get Ritas hopes up. :-( Its just that while searching for some Saunders / Pikes I came across the name Absolom Lee and remembered Rita looking for one.

Hello, hello.

It has taken me practically all day to get on to here. Somefink was up. :-P

Amy Winehouse lived about 5 minutes away from me, in a very swish Square. I must admit I cried when I heard she had died. Such a tragic waste of a young life. I have not been down to the Square to look at the flowers, there are too many people down there waiting to get onto camera. I may wander down there when it quietens down.

I have always liked her songs, she had a yearning in her voice, I have her albums and have always enjoyed them. I particularly like Love Is A Losing Game.

See boring for England again, talking about music.

Hope everyone is well and happy.

See ya.

Maddie I too loved her voice. It had a real soulful quality which I liked.
Another tragic loss.

Good evening all.
Tomorrow is another day for Jeniwrens treatment, so lets all get behind her again.
ooooooooooooooooooooooo <3 for our Jeniwren ooooooooooooooooooooo
I will be thinking of you love. xxx

Cath It is young Absalom Lee I am looking for his father had the same name. both were born in Southeigh Devon Grandfather Absalom 1827 and Absolam the son 1871, No we are not a romany family mostly Farmers and service men

Think of you for tomorrow Jean good luck. love Rita ooooooooooooooooo

Thank you for letting me know Cath.

Rita

I forgot to mention we have a man moved into our block of four flats he is in his early 60. he is 6ft .5 inches tall and such a kind gentleman he told me this afternon he will be away for three weeks he is going to Romania I said thats a strange place to go for three weeks. ?it appears he teaches Christianity out there so I suppose he must be a missionary ?and works out there helping the people, he goes every year,

makes a change to hear something like that.

Rita

Evening All I

Just in time to say 'Goodnight' !

Rita

I have known a few folk who give their time to work abroad voluntariliy. The do loads of good stuff.
My son went to Romania a few years ago to help build a Holiday Camp for deprived children. He was on Summer leave and I got him roped in with a group I was helping out. He throughly enjoyed it.

Night All !

Evening everyone and goodnight.
Been watching Appointment With Death.
This week my chicken curry was extra hot :-0 I could have done with it be a bit milder! I had a very small bottle of wine and a glass of water with my curry.
Going to bed now.
<3 for Jean tomorrow.
Night x
