Have a graet day all

Where did you come from Shelly lol, did you doze off in the garden lol?
I am always up through the night, it's better than sleeping next to the idiot upstairs, who snores and f**ts all night! He will be getting up for work in a mo, he has to keep doing 6 day weeks when he can to subsidise the scrounger son!

I am 62 - 63 in three weeks and a day :>(( - and live in Norwich, Norfolk. A single mum of a son aged 28 in a week's time, so a busy time coming up. I have chronic fatigue syndrome and fibromyalgia so never sleep well, but better when I am alone so sleep mornings and spend the rest of the time trying to catch up with myself. It's better in the summer cos the days are longer but also harder to sleep as you need the windows open but the world and it's wife seem to decide to natter right under the bedroom window. This house is at the end of a cul de sac so any delivery lorries or the bin lorry beep their way in reverse down the close and stop under the window, slam their doors, chat on their phones, even the milkman stops here and does his paperwork and has his break lol - more chatting on the phone then.
Some times I get up and pointedly slam the window but it's too hot for that at the mo

Pauline.

I'm sure Liz will laugh at that .....because I nearly fell off my chair ...Psst !!

Liz, I've seen that you decided to go with the posh frock for the wedding. We'll be waiting to see a photo of you in it.

Linda, the photos of the wedding are fabulous. I love those bridesmaid dresses, and of course you look great in your outfit. You co-ordinated those colours very well, I like that photo of you at the table where you are all laughing - so very natural. The bride looks amazing, she's stunning.

Hi Jean, I live in the North East - a place called Washington, it's between Sunderland and Newcastle. I think I'm the only one on here from the north.

I'm the youngest pensioner, just turned 60 last week. Can't claim my pension yet because the government changed the age thingy.

I have a son aged 38, he's severely disabled, so lives at home with us.

Been married 26 years to my lovely second husband, first one was similar to the swine that Liz lives with.

This sounds like an alcoholics meeting, I'm not an alcoholic by the way but I do like a glass of wine after my dinner.

Hi everyone, thanks for your answers.

Married( just celebrated our anniversary).
Three adult children, son married 4 years, daughter married 4 weeks tomorrow, eldest daughter in a relationship.
Enjoy about 3 holidays a year sometimes to exotic places thanks to hubbys job at Heathrow.
Thinking of retiring soon.............. both of us.

Been a member of GR for about 6 years. Looking into my Family History for almost the same time. FIL started me off with his family........... never knew where his mother was born, in India it turned out. I had some info on my fathers family, which I used on here and have had contact with several distant cousins.

Anyone else willing to spill the beans?

Enjoy your evening all

Afternoon ladies, hope you are all ok, it is very warm and sunny here, unfortunately have lots of housework to do before sunset tonight.

Shelly, am sorry to hear about your little grandson, I do hope everything goes well for him when he has the ops.

Is anyone doing anything nice this weekend?

Are we supposed to give some detasils about ourselves when we first come on this thread. I have read your names on other threads but dont know where you all live.


Well best get back to doing some work, will look in again later.

Well I have sent some more wedding pictures to Pauline, Marilyn, Rita, Mo, Sue, Yvonne, Liz and Shelly. I don't have e-mails for Elizabeth or Jean, sorry.
If you would like to see me and the family at my daughters wedding please send me a personal message with your e-mail and I will forward them to you too.

Have I missed anyone? Please let me know, if I have.

It tried to rain here earlier but came to nothing.

Have a good day everyone.
