I've bet you've seen more of Devon than I have Rita!
I very rarely go out of Exeter.It's like as if I've got a ball of string and it extends to the city boundaries. In fact I hardly ever go the other side of the river!

Hi All,

Rita ....I think I read that Gordon & Tony were not members of( Order Of The Garter)

I've got no idea how many people will be watching The Wedding on the Big Screen with me! I'll be seeing The King's Speech afterwards.

O.k where has our wedding planner Maddie got to. I thought we were supposed to be booking into Clarid*es, and doing the sights, if we don't get going very soon, we will miss all the fun.

Stephen, have you got the flight booked to pick Pauline up on the way down.

I would not be very happy camping on a hard pavement, especially if it starts to rain.
Having a nice comfy mattress to lay on,is better than a paving stone.

Hi Everyone
Sorry I wasn't around earlier, but Genes locked me out and hadn't renewed my membership.???
So I had to put a new card on.
Spent the morning doing ironing having got up late after having Little M early yesterday and staying up til midnight waiting for Hubby to get home.
Went to my friend this afternoon and met her grand daughter.
Now watching WDYTYA on Sky it's the one about Rick Stein and one I hadn't seen before.
Done a little more of the blanket.

Enjoy your evening everyone

Linda :o) XxX

PS Glad to be back and able to add

Evening to all my lovely friends, I,m back!!
Got back last evening but been catching up with washing etc all day.
Had a phone call from Ireland at 8 am this morning to tell us mother in law had a fall yesterday evening and is in Wexford General with a suspected broken ankle (not good at her age), waiting on scan to find out for sure and then it might be back to Ireland for OH.
You lot have filled some pages in my absence, lol.
Welcome Sally, another unsuspecting soul has joined the nutty thread!
Shelly I'm 47 too so we are both babies on the thread.
Hope you are all well, its a bit chilly here tonight.
(((((hugs for all )))))

Man is a woman's best friend. He will reassure her when she feels insecure and comfort her after a bad day.

He will inspire her to do things she never thought she could do; to live without fear and forget regret. He will enable her to express her deepest emotions and give in to her most intimate desires.

He will make sure she always feels that she's the most beautiful woman in the room and will help her to be confident, sexy, seductive and invincible.

Oh hang on a second ...... I'm sorry ....... I'm thinking of wine. It's wine that does all that.

Ahhh Maddie, I am sorry to hear you haven't been feeling to good. I did wonder why we hadn't heard from you.
What time are we being picked up tomorrow. ? I can't wait, it's going to be a brilliant day.

Welcome back Linda, you were on my missing list, but I thought you may have been busy with the family,or the garden.
Have you very much left of the blanket left to do. You must take a photo, and let us see how it finishes up. It's a very painstaking task making it isn't it, it must seem never ending. You must be a very patient person, as I would get fed up if it wasn't finished quickly.

It's good to have you back Cath. How sad that you arrive back last night, and your mother in law has a fall the same evening as your arrival home.
I know it's not a nice thing to say, but god forbid, if it had happened while you were there, you could have cared for her yourselves. Thats the problem as we get older, our bones get more fragile, and break easily.
Bless her, I hope she will be able to manage. Have you got family over there to look after her.?

Pat, have you read Martina Cole's," The Runaway". I have just finished reading it, and could not put it down. I kept telling myself, just one more chapter, but I read it in two days.

Rita, I am waiting for "Long Lost Family" to start. I found last weeks episode very good. I've got my tissues ready at my side.

I hope Jeniwren is o.k, and getting ready for her travels this weekend.

Sally, you must join us tomorrow night for the wedding celebrations,at Clarid*es.
Maddie has booked the hotel, and Stephen may be able to pick you up at John Lennon Airport, on his way down from Scotland, he has got to pick Pauline up.. i hope you don't mind travelling by his personal jet.

Hi Mo,
since my father in law died last year she has no one in Ireland. She has osteoporosis and is also diabetic, asthmatic and high blood pressure. Just heard she has damaged ribs as well. Will know more in the morning, she has been transferred to a surgical ward tonight.
We had such a lovely time with her and took her out and about with us, she coped really well and was so pleased to have the headstone up and engraved, bless her. Its a worry with her living far away from us but she wouldn't leave Ireland even if we wanted her to.
Have missed you guys lots, its good to have a natter.
Having an early night as travel has caught up with me, lol.
Back tomorrow,

Cath xx

I just hope Stephen shows up now, as we have not heard from him today.
I didn't know that The Runaway was being shown on t.v Sally, but then books are totally different to films, or t.v aren't they.

Rita, what did you think of Long Lost Family tonight. I thought the woman who found her son, after giving him up for adoption was great.
It looks like next weeks one will be good as well.
