Quick good morning to our Jean and all of you, sorry I haven't been around much lately, a bit low and stuff going on here too which makes me stressed.

I watched the Brucie prog and thought it was quite interesting, he wasn't so posey as he was on the other programme about him, he was very natural with his new found family, I thought.
Certainly was a shock for them to find out their family weren't legit! lol

Glad your scan was ok Marilyn and hope you can get to the bottom of the mystery note.

Love to all, take care,

Lizxxx

Hi Marilyn
Thanks for telling us of your good news. I am so glad all is OK.

Now we only need to send healing thoughts for Jean and our little group will be getting on OK.

Yvonne and Rita on holiday having a great time no doubt.

Sue still missing here but seen on Facebook.

Elizabeth and Liz haven't added for a couple of days hope they are OK

Shelly busy with trees as usual.

Mo knitted too fast and has finished. I finished the first one yesterday, need to dig out buttons for it now. But been cutting back shrubs today other than when my friend came for tea and a chat. About to start a new cardigan this evening, in that pretty patel random wool.

Enjoy a calm evening everyone. Still hot and muggy here in the SE

Thank goodness your scan was o.k Marilyn. Now we have to pray for Jean.
Jean just remember we are all thinking of you all the way, and out the other side.
My grandaughter came to see us last night. And she had a brilliant time.
I had to laugh, they went on a midnight cruise,that started at eight thirty,and finished by eleven thirty. How can they call that a midnight cruise lol!!!

Hi All,

Sigh of relief.........Scan OK.

Oh my god I was sweating buckets before I went in to see consultant.
Then he said have you come for your check up ??? because you were only here 6 weeks ago !

No I said I'm here for results of my scan, then he left me again for 5 mins and came back after looking it up with the good news ..
What the right & left don't know about each other !!

Anyway that's that done and dusted ..LOL

Thanks for all concerned see we all need each other ... don't we ?

Now going for dinner ...

Afternoon all,
Marilyn I do hope your scan results are good, fingers crossed for you.

Mo, I hope your Grandaughters holiday wasn't spoiled by them having to wait to get home, and hope she had a great time. Hope things go well for your OH tomorrow. I start my treatment on Thursday, not looking forward to that.

Take care everyone.

I hope the scan results are good Marilyn, fingers crossed for you.
What a shame there was not much success, on the Forsyth Saga. As you say, maybe now someone will come forward,after the screening last night.

Linda this tickly cough is a nuisance at times. I wake myself up thinking there is a stranger in the room,who's having a coughing bout, only to realise it's myself.
I hope you managed to get your compost for your plants.

Jean I have not got anything planned for today. My OH, has got to go for a Colonoscopy tommorrow,so today is the day he has to take the clearing out medicine.
Poor soul is not looking forward to it, even though he has been through it before.
Is it tommorrow or thursday you start your treatment.

Morning Jean & Linda.....others when they wake !

Going back to Brucie yes it was about 5 weeks before that program as I only see my dad once a week and he told me at the time he had had it a few days prior to my visit

But what they didn't talk about was his nearest family, his siblings and I think that's what I wanted to hear all about them and more about his mother & father John. just to get a connection. also the person must have bought Brucie birth cert as it had the actual date on it as well as the year., and Elizabeth's.

Mind you they could have found it somewhere in a mag or something!!

Anyway no big party for you all I was going to ask Brucie to cough up some dosh for us all ..LOL

Pete's out cleaning the car ... still .thinks he'd better sell it to get the Roll Royce ...!!!!......from the estate there wont be one now ..LOL

Going for me bath I got my sisters DIL coming for coffee soon ....


But even so its still weird. maybe now the program has been aired ,that person might knock on the door again ...LOL

Shelly that Elizabeth had no surname just Elizabeth Alexandra Mary

Good morning Jean
You are up far too early !!! But thanks for the tea, I needed that.

Dry but overcast this morning, wonder what gardening I can achieve today. I pruned one shrub yesterday, which led on to some bamboo we are trying to get rid of. Yoo invasive.

Hope to get to the garden centre this afternoon when hubby gets back. I need compost to grow wallflowers pansies and sweeetwilliams for the spring. We also need some tomorite for the tomatoes as we have run out.

Have a good day everyone

You're right about the inside info Shelly, the note had to come from someone who knew about the programme long before the general public knew.

Aww Marilyn, that was a disappointment for you, you'll always be wondering now - unless Shelly comes up with something. I bet Rita was watching it while she was on holiday.

Linda that's good news that you've been discharged from the hospital and your breathing is back to normal. Just got to sort out your indigestion cough now!

Mo, that post nasal thingy sounds yucky, does it not help if you lie sort of propped up?

Yep, we have lots of happy memories of my uncle, and he got to 86 - so it was a pretty good innings............can't complain.
