Hi Yvonne. Did you think that Bluewater is expensive,I certainly do. I would rather go to Lakeside,and it's not that much further. And you could probably have bought your face cream in Boots. lol

Marilyn next time you go on a visit to Portsmouth records office (if you go ) could you look something up for me I put a thread on Records office to get some idea as to how to go about looking for Great uncle Walter and they came back with a few. I knew I would not get a straight forward answer as I could not give one either but next time I would like someone to look up three wedding for me to see if they could be Great Uncle Walters then i can order a marriage certificate. I have no proof he married but someone in the family said there was a chance he had.

Hi Mo no i wont send the water filled balloon up to you being as your not well does anyon e know if anyon wants 20 waterfilled balloons ? lol
Thats vey mean giving Linda your ironing to do.you could always push it under the bed till you feel like doing it. no one will see it there unless you use a goes unde
Th work men are still here and the noise is deafing as my flat is next to the stair cupboard I am getting all the noise as the equipement is kept in that cupboard the door to that opens onto my flat door so if I want to get out I have to say shutting your door for a minute. it is great fun. lol
they were up a ladder drilling some bits into the wall to take some sort of pipe while the gardeners truned up and mowed the lawns so you can guess I am trying to hear someone on the telephone while a big commercial mower is cutting grass and the drilling is going on.
I know they have to do these jobs but two at the same time

I have not see the estate manager today so I have not been able to ask for my beaker back..
i need to make two phone calls but I am leaving that till tomorrow incase I get on and the noise stgarts again.
happy days are here again

Hi everyone.
Pauline is not the only one needing the heating on today. It was o'k this morning,but this afternoon I have been sitting here shivering,so th fire has gone on.
I have got to phone my doctor at 4.15,to see if she will give me some more anti-biotics,I just cant seem to shift this bronchitus,and keep feeling like ***t.
So Rita dont send that balloon full off water over please,I feel like a wet weekend as it is,and dont fancy getting any wetter. lol
Hows the hunky workmen today. Are you making the tea for them.
Got all the washing out on the line today,blowing lovely,soon be time to bring it in.
I think I will send the ironing up to Linda. Do you want to load yours in with mine Shelly. It's not as if Linda has anything to do now is it. lol
Hi Liz,good to hear the councelling went well.

Pauline do you live in the NORTH POLE aera ? we have warm sunny weather here if I put the heating on I would be too hot. I am pleased you got your heating fixed though that is awful when you feel the cold and cannot get warm. I had that once when I lived in Norfolk lving on the coast you got the sea mist as well and that was like a sheet of ice if you wernt out in. I was going to a dinner and dance at Great Yarmouth Town Hall with my friend when all my heating shut down and it was extra cold winter. I said I would not go to the dinner and dance my friend said phone someone I phoned the guy I used as a Plumber and heating engineer
( My husband had died at this time that was his trade ) David came and said go to your dinner and I will see to the heating and leave your spare key on the table he did he even had to drive into Norwuch to get a special part for the boiler . I didnt get home till 12 and the bungalow was all warm and cosy he left a little note to tell me what he had done and said I will call you tomorrow which he did he gave me the bill for the parts and didnt charge me for the petrol or the time it took him.to drive into Norwich
I thought that was a really nice thing to do. you dont get many like him these days.

Shelly it's cold and wet here, horrible day.

Thanks for the offer of the heating but the gas-man was here till 6pm last night and got it going for me. I'm still getting a new system in next week but we couldn't go a week without heat and hot water so he managed to get it sorted for me. Just as well because it's like winter again today.

Hey whats going on here I see some are up before me this morning I got up at 7 my usual time lately . I thought I would have a cup of tea and see if I had any emails of course one but I have 6 so I answered those first.
Mo I dont know why you thought you had upset me ? I take a lot really but if I get upset I speak out and say so you will know I am upset. I would send a kite with a baloon full of water over your house and bust it by remote control so it landed down your chimney how about that then ? tell me now you don t have a chimney lol
I have not tackled her about my beaker yet but I want that back I have a cupboard full of old ones if she wants them
I have to go and get dressed now as the men are due back at 9 to fiinish off the pull cord system.
