Morning all
Back from a lovely walk with the dog again. This morning the lake had a light mist hanging over it, quite ereathral(sp).
Think it's going to be another beautiful day.
The herons and swans have visible nests, but many other waterbirds round there. Mallards, tufted ducks, coots, moorhen, grebe, mandarin to name just a few.
Managed a bit more of the blanket last night, but not much.
Have a good day everyone
Linda :o) XxX

Morning all, very misty here - feels a bit nippy. I think it's forecast to be warm and sunny again though. We went for a 3 hour walk yesterday, trying to take advantage of the sunshine while we have it.
Where was Shelly, Mo and Jean yesterday?

I got my voting papers this morning( I do postal votes.)
I had the form and listed canidates also one form on voting AV telling me to tick No or Yes. . both lcoal vote and AV votes goes into seperate envelopes.marked wwith A or B
I also has my letter re my warfarin test. no longer do we get a nice typed letter on yellow paper telling you your results and dosage you need to take and the past reading of the test.
you get a card with perforated edging that you have to tear off to get to the card inside.. which you need to read three times at least to understand what they are telling you. the date for my next appointment if 12/7/2011 when I am on holiday. you cannot get inotuch with them no phone calls. so when I dont turn up on that date I will be marked DNA. did not arrive..
why in this morden age do these hospitals make such hard work of everything

Hello all
Rita we got our postal vote last week, still don't know what to vote on AV.
My OH gave in a form last week at the hospital to book an xray, he got a letter on Monday telling him to go that day at 11am, our post didn't arrive till after midday and he was at work so didn't open the letter till 4 o'clock when he got home ( i don't open his letters )
Pauline, my brother does as he is told, she wears the trousers in that house. I wont repeat on here what else she did which really upset me and my sisters.
Son has gone to Cambridge for a couple of days to stay with a friend, he's gone on the train, he said if he had a car he could have driven, i think thats another hint
All ready for the big day next week, I might go with Rita in her open car and wave to everyone lol

Hello everyone.
Rita we had our postal votes papers on Tuesday, all now filled in and sent off.
Good job I had Roly here to explain things to me,or I would probably have messed it up.
Thank goodness they will mark you as DNA, and not DOA. I had to actually read what you had written twice, as I misunderstood, and thought they were after your DNA for testing. To much C.S.I ,and Murder She Wrote watching I do believe.
Hi Pauline, sorry to miss you yesterday. How are you all. Is Brents cold any better now he has passed the germs onto you. LOL
Maddie, I'm not sure if I will take advantage of the masseuse, I don't want to start the rolls of fat moving, or they will never stop.
But the idea of shopping in Bond Street sounds wonderful to me. I will have to start saving my pension, to have a little splurge.

Demot, I didn't realise you played the pipes.
Our Royal Highness is 85 today. She still looks great. Many years to come I hope.

Mo we must vote for what we beleive is out view not what someone else says.
I am voting yes. because I think our voting systems is wrong not working at all. to me it is unfair.
but friend are mostly voting no.
I was so pleased that the queen spent a lot of time speaking to those children today at West Minster Abbey. it was something those children will remember for the rest of their lives. considering she is 85 I thought she looked very well.
I hope she carries on for a few more years.
I beleive that Prince Charlies must be older than Queen Victoria son when he took over the throne.?
I wanted Prince William to take over but thinking things out I hope he stay as he is and enjoys married life and a normal life as much as he can before he succeeds to the throne . the only thing I am not keen on is Carmilla being address as Queen.

God evening everyone.
Welcome to the thread Sally, please come back and see us all again sometime soon.
As the heading says this is "The friendlies thread" and we welcome anyone who wants to join our chat.
You don't have to be a nutter to join us, but you will find as time goes by, we can be a bit looney at times.
Talking of bag pipe playing, we had an elderly neighbour over the back of us, who was a pipes enthusiast.
Bless him, he would often be playing at all hours of the day and evening.
We did miss him when he passed away, but not the drone of the pipes at all hours.
Maddie, hopefully Marilyn will be back for the wedding, and we can leave the security guards to her. She will just flutter her eyelashes at them, and they will be putty in her hands.
Is anyone going to watch the new series tonight, at 9.00p.m on ITV, Long Lost Family. I am going to have a shufty at it, to see what it's like.
Oooh I have just noticed the time, got to go it's nearly nine now.

Hi Everyone,
I've just come back from Maundy Thursday mass. It was a beautiful service and one of the things I did was carry the bowl while the priest washed the feet of twelve parishioners. That was an amazing experience.
Yes the Queen looks good at 85. I hope I'm like that!

Morning All !
Jean.......Thanks for breakfast.......you are up early. Have a good couple of days on the road. I wish I could join you. It would be a great experience.
Sally, Welcome to our wee chat thread. Please keep returning, especially if you can bring a bit of insanity with you.
Patricia, I had my feet washed by the Parish Priest. I felt so humble that this man that I had great respect for was kneeling before me. I still miss him although he has been dead a few years now. A man of great wisdom and compassion.
Have a good day everyone.
Hey ho off I go !
