Jean.....hope your first night at home was ok..........trust you are feeling well.

Only Patricia, Maddie and I around last night. Were all the others at a secret party ?

'Fluffy Paws' eventually arrived home late last night. Grinning from ear to ear. Goodness know what he's been up to. He got a right telling off and sent to his bed.

Keep well. keep safe. keep smiling.

Catch you all later.

Dame Shelly....when you go to bed I'm thinking about getting up LOL.

A wee chuckle before I go.


A woman went to the Doctors to get some medication for her elderly husband.

The Doctor said, ' I want him to take two of these pills every Saturday, Sunday and Monday and skip the rest of the week'.

A month later the woman returned and informed the Doctor her husband had died of a heart attack.

'I don't understand it' said the doctor, 'he had no history of Heart problems. I hope it wasn't a side effect of the medication'

'Oh no,' said the wife. 'The Pills were fine'

'It was the skipping that killed him'

Morning everyone
That gave me a laugh for the start of a new day Stephen, I didnt have any of your breakfast this morning but thanks for doing it. I had some fresh fruit and a mini roll. and two cups of tea. Now I am feeling better, and fit to drop. lol
I have been reading the threads before I got to this one. I go to bed about 10.30 and read for a hour. so I dont often stay late on the board. I have to read back what has taken place in the mornings before I add anything. I am usually up at 6 o.clcock unless I over sleep.
Shelly are they juggling plates in your house ?
I recall my two boys when they were very small watched a programe on TV about Juggling and took three plates from the cupboard and tried juggling, I was surprised they didnt break them? .although they dropped them a few times, we had a tthck Carpert on the floor whether that made a differnce I have no idea.?
but I got them to use soft balls afterwards or oranges, lol

I just thought of something Stephen which has made me smile
.
years ago when you hired a skip to get rid of your rubbish and it was in the road. you had to report it to the police station and overnight it had to have lights on the sides.(This was to save cars or people getting hurt ")
so I reminded John to phone them before he forgot or we would get a fine, so he did, he spoke to a the policewoman on the desk and said he had a skip in the road and gave the name of the road.,she was so angry she told him he wasnt funny . and they had better things to do, with their time.. and slamed the phone down (this is way back in about 1968)
I said I will phone her back which I did , I explained we had a skip for rubbish in the road outside our house and we had the lights on it, and we were phoning them to let them know as the rules asked us to do. she said thank you for calling took all the details down before she went I said that was my husband who told you about the skip in the road a few,minutes ago and you told him not to waste your time.
she realised then what had happened and burst out laughing I was laughing as well. this stayed as a joke in the family for ages. mentioning a skip and this was told.

Rita

Morning all
Still dank here. Kinda makes you feel miserable before you start.
Have to sort old photos today. Son is 30 in 3 weeks and a friend wants to make posters through the years for a surprise party. The surprise for me is that they want to have the party here !!! So I have a house to tidy too.
Hope to get out for a short walk today. Hope the sun shows its face.
Shelly you need to go to Ikea for plates they are reasonable there and usually sell seperately so you can top up when any more break.
Have a good day everyone

Linda :o) XxX

Keep well and warm.

Good morning all you lovely mad people!!
I forgot about broomstick trip on friday night (hangs head in shame) and I'm sorry I missed all the fun. You lot are a tonic.
Brilliant news that Jean is now home and hopefully she will make a good recovery as quickly as possible. Take it easy Jean.
Very mild weatherwise and not raining which is great, might be able to get out in garden and have a tidy up later.
Hope you all have a good day whatever you're up to.

I'm back from mass. The weather was pleasant and it made a nice change not to have it freezing cold in the church!
That joke was very funny Stephen!

Where ya all today ?

Come in from outside now that my wee jobs are finished.

Time to relax and think of getting up to mischief......not that I'm like that usually.....just feel like doing something different,

I wonder who I could annoy ?

'Fluffy Paws' has stayed in his basket all day. Better call him and give him a feed.

It was grand outside today, apart from the wind. That ruffled my flowing locks a bit ROFL.

Patricia.....Took the family to church in Cornwall one Sunday......it was like stepping back in time......the Mass was in Latin. Confused my daughter totally.

Hi all, it's taken me ages to catch up, I had 12 pages to read.

Pleased to see Jean's out of hospital and back home. The hospital staff are probably pleased she's back home as well, don't think they could take another night with you lot.

I've just got one question................. who's George? Stephen said George was doing the driving!!

Hi everyone.
Good news from this end of the country. Our new baby grandaughter arrived at 2.45 this afternoon, little Lily. She weighs a good 7lb 6oz, and both mum and baby are well.
Dad, my son is over the moon, anyone would think it was his first child lol

Did you miss me last night. We were out at a 50th birthday party.
They had a disco, well I believe it was a disco, as we could not hear it where we were sitting.
In fact when we got on the dance floor, you could only just hear it then.
Feelng pretty shattered now mind you.

Congratulations Mo. Welcome to the world Lily.
We always miss you Mo.
Garden tidied up now and I noticed some Daffodils poking through the soil once I'd cleared the weeds. Made me think of spring, roll on.
Getting a chinese for tea, too tired to cook,lol.
As well as garden I had a good clean up in kitchen and even washed walls down so I can decorate once new boiler is up and running (soon). Have had problems with condensation because house is so cold.
BIG (((((((HUGS))))))) for Lily
