Evening Everyone.

Hope you are all well.

Pleased you liked my tripe-hound. The kids named her Charlie, gawd knows why. :-D

Hope everything went well Stephen, and thank you for the emails.

Really hot here today, pity I missed it all. I could see everyone walking past in t-shirts. Really, the things you see when you haven't got your gun. Does anyone look at themselves in a mirror before they go out any more?

If your clothes are too tight. Buy a size bigger, where is the problem?

See you later.

Hi there everyone.
Good grief I couldn't believe how many e.mails I had, everyone had gone crazy all of a sudden. Mind you, it's great to receive them, and gives me a good giggle.

Rita our Tes*o's have got loads of air fresheners. The folks of Surrey must have had a good old buy up, for the local supermarkets to have run out.
Lets hope that the lorries that were causing the hold ups, were delivering to your supermarket, and that they are back on the shelves soon.

Linda, do you think perhaps your blood sugar levels had dropped this morning, causing your giddiness. Especially as it cleared up after you had eaten something.
I hope you have been taking it easy today, and not overdoing the decorating.
That can wait for another day love.

I am at darts tonight, so if I am not around you will know why.

The engineer came to sort my washing machine out today. The lock on the door had lost it's spring, so that had to be changed. Whilst he was at it, he changed the rubber innards of the door seal, so now my machine looks like brand new again. ye ha, it does sometimes pay to take out the insurances on white goods for the kitchen.

Take care everyone. Luv Mo

This was not my morning. the bus was crowded going into town, full of Mums with their children, I counted four pushchairs on the bus and there was standing room only. it appears one bus was taken off..
a young woman with her little girl on the seat called to me as I went to get off the bus because there was no way I could stand all the way to Woking.she put the little girl on her lap so I could have the seat.
coming back they have road works so half the road is blocked off, this is the only road buses and cars can get to and from the town a couple of large lorries were doing a deleivery to Aldi's so they had buses and cars and lorries lined up behind them, as they could not pass the otherside of the road I counted 11 buses stationary unable to move on the side coming up there was so many lorries and buses and it got to the stage they could only pass two at a time lots of cars did a quick three point turn in the road when something made space and cleared off. two police officers came and told the lorries they had to move which they did the traffic could flow then.accept due to the traffic lights taking ten minutes to change we had a full road again. it took me half an hour to get home on an 8 minute journey. I felt so sorry for the bus drivers.

we do not have a Wikinsons here or a Tescos our Sainsburys did not have them. neither did the super drug stores.perhaps it is only Surrey and the shop have sold out so the other shops are being raided by people wanting to buy them.? it is so strange.

There were loads of bathroom smellies in Tesco at March this morning, so it must be Surrey Rita.

Ldies some thing strange is happening I told you about the bathroom and room smellies you get that hold a scent for the rooms and the scented spray well this morning I tried another four shops and they had none either. I managed to get one spray and two smellies in Robrt Dyas shop. they only had three of each left. two shops said they had not reordered them the others didn have any information ? have any of you noticed these have vanished from the shelves they have the expensive ones that you plug into a socket and some that have a wick you pull up.
but the others are not to be found on the shelves at least not here in Surrey.
I went out to buy a long white slip made of cotton could not get one anywhere I went. I will have to wait till I go to Norfolk or London and try there

Hello everyone

Thanks Pauline for sending the Christening photos and the pic of Charlie, I enjoyed looking at those. Marilyn thanks foor the jokes, I had a good giggle at the Chicken surprise and the elephant was funny too.

Son has been busy this morning and coated the decking with varnish and he sorted out some old plant pots that had cracked and broken so now a trip down the tip.

Don't you go climbing ladders today Linda, put your feet up instead and read your book

Hope the funeral goes ok Stephen,

Hi Marilyn
Yes I'm just checking in.
I have been fine since about 7 this morning I had toast & marmalade and some tea.
No more spinning thank goodness just don't know what it was?

I have just phoned the National Insurance and told them I have finished working. Really puts an end to it doesn't it.

Thanks for checking on me

Be back later Hubby should be back in about 3 hours

Charlie's lovely Pauline.
I bought some wool this morning to knit Oscar a jumper, I thought I would start early, then it will be finished for winter, I have'nt knitted in a long time.
He dos'nt like his photo taken marilyn, thats why he looks like that, which is surprising as he is a bit of an entertainer, when people come I play either coronation streets theme or eastenders theme on youtube and he sings all the way through.
