Hi Marilyn!
Enjoy the Easter Party! Don't eat too much choccy!

It's cloudy down south! I'm cold!

Hi everyone, it's glorious here, beautiful sunshine and red hot. I can't see the screen very well because I'm sitting outside and it's so bright that all I can see is my own reflection. I'm not even sure if I'm hitting the right keys.

Welcome to the thread Sally, you're the only one on here from Liverpool. We've got a mixture of people from Scotland to Devon and Kent......... plus an Irishman.

Welcome back Marilyn, once you get back home you'll be able to relax.

I had hot cross buns for breakfast as well.......... and an Easter egg.

I haven't decided what to wear for the wedding yet, might go to London early and have a look around the shops.

Sorry if I've got extra letters in my words, can't see a thing........... I'm just typing and hoping I'm hitting the right keys.

I am very warm here in Surrey it is very warm . My son called in at 8.30 tuned in my little radio as I was having a problem with that. checked my computer to make sure things were OK.
then he tested my hair dyer as it seemed to be getting too hot for me. it was me I had it on too high silly me.
Then he tested the toaster my sister said it smelt burning but my son said its your sister she didnt shake the crumbs out of the bottom.
so both her and I are in the wars.

Welcome home Marilyn hope you had a good time didnt over eat or drink lol unless it was water. good for the kidneys,
My son Mike has his operation on the 26th May to test his remaining Kidney. Pete goes into hospital soon doesnt he ?

welcome back Sally your not very old to have children that young. nice to hear from you.keep them coming ? we get up to all sorts of things on this thread. anyone tuning in will think they are in a mental home .some of the things we get up too. I mean that nicely.

Maddie what happened to Johnny Blue eyes ?did you upset him he has not been on any of the threads.since the meet;.

Patricia the forcaste said it would get foggy in the south due to the heat so you must be having the heat.

Never thought of looking on the Internet for my outfit.............. going to have a look now before Marilyn gets the first pick.>>>>>>>>>>>

Residents of Northern Ireland laugh most while those living in Wales laugh least.

Comments please!

Hello everyone

and welcome to Sally

Rita did Charlie have a good birthday bet he got loads of pressies.

very quiet here. OH popped to the shops this morning, he said it was packed.

Dermot if everyone in Ireland is like you thats why they're all laughing. lol

x

Dermot, do the people from Southern Ireland not laugh as much as those from Northern Ireland then. ahem just a question I thought I would ask of you.
Does County Galway come under Northern or Southern Ireland please, as thats where my ancestors came from.
As you may have gathered, I am not really up on my geography.

Oooh Shelly, it looks like you are not the baby of the family anymore, as Sally seems to be younger than you. Pat may even be the baby, I am not sure anymore.

Hello our Marilyn, it's good to have you back. It sounds like you are having a wonderful time, with all the little darlins running around you. Now you know you love it really.
We need you to divert the eyes of the bouncers when we go shopping in Bond street. Not that we are going shop lifting or owt like that, it's just that we need to try all the expensive outfits on, even if we can't afford to buy them. There will so many of us, they may not let us all in at the same time.

It's no good asking Stephen to be our decoy, as he will be in his kilt, and have all the women around him, trying to look up his kilt.

We have been out doing our Easter Egg delivery run. By the time we got to the last house, the chocolate was starting to get soft. So they got shoved into the fridge as soon as we got there.
Eleven eggs this year, thirteen by next year, oh my god I think I will have to learn how to make em meslf, it would turn out cheaper.
I am dreading Christmas this year thirteen grandchildren and one great grandchild to buy for.

I hope you are all enjoying the start of your weekend. If your weather is as nice as ours, you must be.

I can verify that neither Maddie, Yvonne or myself upset Johnny Blue Eyes Rita.
He is a very nice gentleman, and I also have not seen him posting since the meet.

Maddie the e.mail addy JBE gave out was not the correct one, hence his non response to your e.mail love.

I hope you havenot overdone the sun Maddie. We don't need you being unwell for our London trip.

I only asked about JBE as he has not put anything on any thread since that meet. he has a part of his family ancestry which is my late husbands as well. he helped me a lot on that. perhaps he is ill. ?

Sally I am 80 years young have 11 Grandchildren and 12 great Grandchildren. 6 boys and 5 girls in Grand children
8 boys and 4 girls in Great Grandchildren. youngest was born in Feb,

Mo it is not cheap making chocolate easter eggs I use to do them. you buy moulds all sizes they do I still have four small ones. and then there is the chocolate. and you need to heat the water to get the chocolate to melt then slightly grease the Easter Egg moulds pour in the chocolate spread it on with a knife and it has to get cool to stay on then you pipe the edges to seal after you have place sweets inside. I gave up as it was cheaper to buy. them plain I brought the cheaper ones and piped their names on them and put an iced flower on for the girls.. They look expensive eggs but are really cheap one.

Rita

Hmmm I am having second thoughts now Rita. Perhaps I will continue to buy the eggs after all.
I suppose I was lucky, one of the supermarkets was having an offer on at one time, and I got three eggs for the price of one. So I bought six at that time, but should have got them all at the same time, coz the they soon sold out of them.

Sally I was a mature mum when I had my youngest son, at the age of 31,
but he is now nearly 34.
Like a couple of us, I had my eldest daughter at the ripe old age of 17, but have no regrets about that, as we grew up together.
The ages of my children are as of next birthdays, 47, 46, 44, 41 and 34.
And Rita is our much loved elder (ooops I mean younger) member.
She keeps us all in check, and if we misbehave, has been known to fly in on her broomstick, and give us what for. Isn't that right our Rita.
Stephen takes us on magical mystery tours of the Highlands of Scotland.
We have even had our own Olympic games, when Stephen supplied us with a private jet, to take us to the venue. Shelly was our champion at the games, coming away with so many gold medals, she problems getting back into the country.
In October, we go out on our broomsticks. Last year Maddie took us on a whistle stop tour of London. And Stephen was dropping smelly haggis bombs all over the place,especially on the houses of Parliament.

Maddie, I think the race for the best wedding outfit, is on. Marilyn is a hard person to beat on this one. She has such panache and style, she leaves the likes of me in the shade. So my charity shop frock will have to do. I'm not letting on till nearer the day what it's like.
Pauline is shopping on line for her dress, did you know that. I bet she finds a beaut.

Hi All

Bloomin' hot isn't it?

I just thought I'd pop in to ask if everyone here who went to the Victoria Meet got the photos that I sent to all. Johns bounced back but I'm concerned that others may have gone into spam/junk.

Been a beautiful day again, just come back from a 4 hour walk. My feet are feeling very hot now, need to go and soak in the bath for a while. Can't be bothered to cook so we're having a Chinese takeaway......... king prawn and mushroom curry.

Dermot, I think Yvonne gave you a good answer.

I've picked my outfit for the wedding, it's a silk shantung suit in a gold colour (colour's called barley really). I'm going to borrow one of Kate's own fascinators to go with it.

Maddie, I was going to tell that about Marilyn............ lime green is her favourite colour.

hello???
