General Chat

Rita,
I gave my Vampire books to the church fete. Some books I just lend to friends and say don't worry about giving them back. Some books I keep myself. It all depends.
If it's the second Elizabethan era I'd be a Serving wrench ;-)
Going shopping now!

I give my books away some to the old people in the flat above some I put into the Laundry Room so people can take them and read them. ohers I take to Cancer Charity shop..

Linda sorry you not well I expect you feel down now you have retired you must have got so use to the children..enjoy your retirement while you can Love you never know what is around the next corner.

Love Rita

I keep all my books, I have them piled everywhere, I cannot bare to be parted from them, I'm reading DIARY OF A WIMPY VAMPIRE at the moment, its very interesting, a bit comical.
I will have to get a book shelf when we move.

Afternoon folks,
Linda good to hear from you, sorry you're still not too well. ((((hugs)))).
I hope all goes well for your daughter at the scan.
I have spent the best part of today organising my youngest daughters 21st birthday surprise meal. All going to plan at the moment :-D I can't believe she will be 21 already, where did the years go. We all tend to spoil her as when she was only a week old she was extremely ill and we feel privileged that she pulled through. She was very lucky to survive. <3 <3
Must get on with tonights meal (Fajitas) or the tribe will be home and no grub on the table :-(

Cath I hope the surprise dinner goes off well 21 years old I was married at 20 and the next year when I was 21 the firm I worked for gave me a party my husband worked there as well at that time .
I still have two books I was given by friends. with happy 21st written on them.
when i was having my daughter they gave me a Baby shower that was in 1952 it was an American Company Remington Rands.

Agatha
I was like that when I lived in Norfolk I had twice as many rooms and all bigger than I have here so I had built in book cases from floor to ceiling all full of books that I wanted to keep the others as I said went to the market stall. where I swapped them for new books

I have been to the surgery I saw the nurse from the hospital such a nice person. I had test done on my legs and feet and blood pressure done on my feet and toes then n on my legs and then my normal blood test she said it was lower than usual so she was pleased. I have cream for my rash on my legs and I am going to try thin elascated stockings, I have to go back in September what a busy month that will be I have the Cancer clinic for scan results to see if it is still dormant also wafain blood test and the Dentist that is after I come back from the wedding. Oh happy days .

Went to Swindon today, good day.
First to a shopping area with a large asda, got a couple of shirts, then to the old railway termenal or shunting yard where there is now an outlet....had lunch there, then into Swindon town.
All in all a good day with lots of laughs along the way.

Hi George nice to know you had a good day did you go with Foggy ?
I bet you did have a lot of laughs. I am like that when I go out with my sister, when I go to Hampstead near the Heath where she lives we go into town and we laugh all the way there and back. we always find something amusing.

I am of to watch a little bit of TV then will sit and read some more of my book.

I think we might have rain again later on. and my son is sitting at a lake near Sandhurst fishing with some friends he went yesterday and stayed over night.

Rita

Good evening DameShelly and Rita,

Rita, yes George and I went with a couple of friends, and we did have a really good day thanks,

My sister lives in Hampstead Garden suburb I stay with her a lot during the year as we are both widowed we travel a lot around London once we crossed all the bridges in London we tour now like holidays makers go to all the art gallerys and museums. take trips on the boats long the Thames.

Good evening one and all. It looks like everyone has had a busy day today.
George and Foggy seem to have been travelling a lot, this past week. I am very envious of them both.

Linda, it's so nice to hear from you. It was getting to the point of us sending out the search parties for you.
I hope you start to feel a lot better very soon. Has the doctor given you any new medication to try.

Cath I hope the surprise 21 party goes off well. Are you holding it tonight?

Marilyn, have you got the extra trunks for us, for our holiday on the QE2. You know you can't go without us, not this time. Theres been so many times you have left us all behind, and you did pwomise us when you went to America the last time, that you would take us with you. Shelly, Pauline, Linda,Maddie, Rita amd myself are a witnesses to what you said. lol

Come on folks, lets nag her till she agrees to take us.

na mo well just ramsack her house when she has gone mite be more fun lol

Hi all,

Shelly don't forget my brother lives in my house while I'm away....and he's a retired fireman & still fit !! and is at the ready for any ransacking going on...LOL you wouldn't get past the front gate with him around :-P

Mo....unless you like trains you wouldn't like the train journey across America after.....very tiring ;-)

Shelly what's wrong with your Ancestry ?

Foggy..... I lived in London for 30yrs, I was posh as I lived at one time in the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea LOL :-D
Much posher than Maddie.. :-P

I have just done a pile of ironing....well overdue. I'm happy now that its done.

Linda ...glad to see your Post ...always welcome

:-D

But Shelly, Marilyn leaves her brother in control of the house. Look what happened last time we tried to gate crash, he supplied us with tents to camp out in the field behind the barn.
And that bull charging at us was no fun, I just can't run as fast as you anymore.
Sue picked you Maddie and myself up on the way, and made us late because of the traffic. Poor Linda and Pauline had to hitch hike all the way.
Rita was lucky she had a nice coach trip down.lol

Marilyn, I lurve trains, especially the one that your going on. Sylvia in Canada has told me all about it, and it sounds great.
