Morning everyone.
Pauline can you not do some on line shopping or is there not enough for you to do that ? perhaps they will drop the shopping by helicopter in your back garden Lol. maybe Stephen can drop it down to you on his skis should only take him a about three weeks to get there.he can stay overnight and then head back. Mrs Stephens might enjoy the break,. lol
So Brent will be home again we will have to think up something that will entertain him or some thing in the form or art he has not done and maybe can try.

Stephen Wishing you a" Happy St Andrews Day"even with the snow laying thick on the ground on the trees in the hedges on the roof.
I just had toast this morning after seeing the couple making porriage on TV different ways one with water and salt the other with milk and sugar Mother in Law use to do it the Scottish way. I didnt like that I liiked it with milk and sugar..anyway have a nice day.

Shelly do you take the children to and from school ? I am not sure if you drive ?or walk.

This you will think I am telling lies but I am not. at the back of my flat we have about an inch of snow, (you know that white stuff ) in the front of my flat we have rain and big puddles
so I am waiting to see when it changes to snow flakes as is forcast.
I dont think I will bother making snow balls out the back. but will need a brolly out the front

Hello everyone who I have not named. have a good day keep warm.

Our schools are all cosed (or even closed), no post, nothing.

Rita, I can't get out, I'll have to stay in, I need shopping as well.

I've sent Yvonne's photo on to some of you, I know Rita and Maddie got it but I'm not sure about the rest, sorry if you have it twice now.

Morning all.

Shelly it sounds as if the problem is the fact that your stairs are in your lounge and there's no radiator on the landing. You'll be losing all your heat up the stairs, and what's going up there won't be enough to warm the landing. Nothing you can do about it either. Well, I can't think of anything. Sorry.

Just do what Stephen and Rita say...........put plenty of layers on to keep your body warm and put thick curtains up at all doors and windows.

My parents had no wedding photos. The photographer took the money and run. So sad.

I dont believe Stephens hot gossip. Boy George is courting me. lol

We share the hat collection.

Rita Report 29 Nov 2010 22:51

No I meant perhaps you could put plastic over your wndows for the time being to stop the cold getting into your rooms.

I use to love the old coal fire's we had them when we first got married.the heat use to circulate alot better than the heat from the radiators.

Thank you for the wedding photos Yvonne they are lovely I liked your dress. very beautiful.

I am off to bed now.

Shelly,

Do you have Hot Water Radiators in each of your rooms run from a Gas Boiler ?
Does your front door open straight to the outside or into a stairway or close.? Do you have a back door ?

Is your Electric for lighting, telly, etc only or do use it for an Immersion Heater for Hot bathwater or shower.
