Hope Jean is alright and not been over doing things.

Oi Mrs Shelly, share them chips around, I fancy a nice chip butty.

Dermot, when my children were small, we did all the actions to that nursery rhyme. Oh memories.
It's amazing how these rhymes get carried on through familes, as my grandchildren were taught it as well.

I hope everyone is o.k.
Whats happened to Jean today, I bet she's snuggled up indoors in the warm, lucky girl.

im sitting here eating a big bag of greesy chips and a save

Afternoon all.

Dermot very good, I want to know the where about you spent this wonderful childhood ?

I see our Jean was in your memoirs..!!

My Uncle used to do his party piece with that Nursery rhyme .....and had us in stitches every time.
Try reciting it miming with all the actions with your arms etc.... its a scream especially with alcohol. LOL

Now I'm off for my walk .....back later

Love to our Stephen......we really ARE missing you now and our breakfasts ....xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Our Feathered Friends - Part 5:-

Near neighbours of ours kept pigeons for a while - a bit like Jack Duckworth‘s coop. Molly, the woman of the house, was a kindly person. I popped in one day to ask if I could take a look at them.

She probably had better things to do but she took me out the back to observe them for a while. Molly explained that pigeons were members of the dove family & because of their great homing instinct, were used in times gone by for carrying messages. We have all heard how they were used as message carriers during various wars. These days, mobile phones would probably do the same job.

At school, our teachers were always reminding us to be more like the wise owl. The owl says little & listens a lot. Unfortunately, the noisy classroom of 10 or 11 year-olds was sometimes the reverse. A group of owls is known as a ‘parliament’ - but I’ll exclude any other political discussions here.

That’s about enough from me & my childhood memories of the birds around us. Apologies for rambling on a bit. I just thought it was nice the way people took some of these birds into their homes & made them part of the family. We know that our ancestors did so too from the many references to these birds in our music & folklore.

So, I hope that those who come after us will continue to live in harmony with nature & especially with ‘our feathered friends’.

(18th Century Nursery Rhyme).

Sing a song of sixpence,
A pocket full of rye.
Four and twenty blackbirds,
Baked in a pie.

When the pie was opened,
The birds began to sing;
Wasn't that a dainty dish,
To set before the king?

The king was in his counting house,
Counting out his money;
The queen was in the parlour,
Eating bread and honey.

The maid was in the garden,
Hanging out the clothes;
When down came a blackbird
And pecked off her nose.

There was such a commotion,
that little Jenny wren;
Flew down into the garden,
and put it back again.

Morning everyone,
Thanks for the cuppa!
Hopefully Stephne should be able to get on today!
One of my friends has got thyroid problems. She has an under active thyroid and has to take tablets.
Maddie I hope OH is ok.

Morning All,

Maddie I hope OH is OK and results are reasonable to cope with.

Pete has to wait 2 months for his op........but would not consider it private as the Consultant said save your money it probably wont have another attack in the near future,
So he said have your holiday and it will be done as soon as you come back.
My friend has the same op next week so Pete will be looking on to see how she gets on.

Pauline , yes I do log off every time I change my board name and I have created about 4 character faces but is does not WORK GRRRRRRrrrr.

Now having my breakfast ,as Stephen is not available I'm finding it a poor show really .
Maybe its just as well I'm on my diet .......so Stephen if your watching you can eat all your fry-ups YOURSELF !!! ..

Hi to Pauline & Linda.....
