Morning all
Beautiful here again this morning.
Managed to do some work in the garden yesterday, hubby cut the grass and I did more pruning. There is plenty for the recycling tomorrow
More knitting and I sat in the sun yesterday and read some of the book I started whilst in Wales.
Not sure what to do this morning?

Still taking the pills for 2 more days then as hubby will be off for 3 days I will stop taking them and see what happens. Might need to take them for the further 2 weeks or go back to the Drs.

Have a lovely day everyone

Good to see you back Pat and glad you seem to have had a nice time

Linda :o) XxX

Morning All.

Bright and sunny here.

Hope everyone is well.

I know the Carlton Pat, and I also know the Ocean Hotel Rita.

We have been to Sandown many, many times.

The Ocean Hotel is a big white hotel on the front. The rooms at the back have a sea view. It is near the war memorial. The road by the Ocean is very steep. Hold onto the handrail.

Going into work for a couple of hours today. Hopefully it will be a bit quieter because of the Wimbledon Final. Heres hoping.

See you all later.

Morning All !

Fantastic Morning here again :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Pat......Nice to see you had a good break......where's the Stick of Rock ? :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

HM Queen Elizabeth looking as radiant as ever yesterday. :-) :-) :-) :-)

She sends her regards to all the Friendly Folk.

A piece of History taking place yesterday. I was glad I was there to witness it. The Colours of Famous Scottish Regiments being Laid Up and the New Colours of the Royal Regiments of Scotland being Dedicated and Blessed. A rather emotional event for many Old Scottish Soldiers .

Having a more leisurely day today. Potter in the garden etc. Not enough wind for sailing. :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P

Have a good day ya all.

Morning everyone,
a beautiful day down here again.
Yvonne your dog is so gorgeous, I want one :-D
Pat glad you enjoyed your break and good to have you back.
Marilyn sounds like you've been thoroughly spoilt :-D :-D I like it! Send me some tips on how to achieve this please, lol,lol.
Spent most of yesterday working on my tree and then BBQ with my eldest daughter and family. Going out for lunch with whole family today (their belated anniversary present to us). No cooking today, YIPPEE.
Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend.
<3 <3 <3 to all,

Cath xx

Morning all.

Oh dear, you must of had a bad day yesterday Cath, you're looking a bit rough.

Phone's ringing, be back later.

Marilyn I thought of something yesterday you brought a new wedding ring I hope you geo it blessed. that is important.

I am worried now Maddie you tell me there is a steep hill to get to the hotel. we will be travelling by coach to most places otherwise we will get a cab to take us down to wherever we are going to .
I am not good with hills. one way for my children to collect their inhertance.

Pat I am doing those same tours with shearing coaches. I also have friends who live on the Island one had an hairdresses not sure she esill has it. ? but here parents (my friends ) have a house on Arnold Avenue Binstead. and I also have a cousin of my husband who lives on the island he has a shop. so I might surprise themn and pop in if I am near by.

I have had my shower and have just had cornflakes and I am drinking my second cup of tea before I make the bed and sort out a few things.
morning all and have a great day.

Rita.

Morning my lovelies !!

Its lovely here today.

Rita only my first wedding ring was blessed ....these others are just fancy styles that I get fed up with and needs changing ....same man though wouldn't change him for the world.

Now that Shelly of ours keeps herself to herself of late , she was our chatterbox & entertainment on here .....so what's happened to her ...hmmm maybe gone up that tree of hers and made a tree house for good ....S_H_E_L_L_E_Y you can come down and talk to us ......

Well thats her sorted :-S

Pauline have you read my PM ?

Pat ..Glad you enjoyed your holiday , looks like you enjoyed yourself.

Linda ....I bet you are excited about your new arrival, knitting those carddies must make you feel close to it already !!

Stevey ....~~~~~~~~~~~ hope your OK.

Going to water my plants..

Hello Rita,

No sorry, I did not explain myself properly. The entrance to the Hotel is in the High Street, on the flat. The back of the hotel overlooks the Prom. There are graduated roads leading from the High Street to the Prom, there are handrails on each road. Lots of the hotels have entrances on the Prom, up to the hotels. So you have a choice of entrance, one on the Prom, and one on the High Street.

The beaches are very clean, a tractor goes along every morning about 7.30 to smooth the beaches for the kiddies. Most of the coach parties that I have seen, get up early and sit on the benches on the Prom and read their newspapers.

I am a very early riser, and used to go for a walk along the beach every morning, having a paddle. :-) I used to see the same people every morning, get a paper, and then get back to our hotel while K. was in the shower. As I said before, I am a lark, he is an owl.

I hope I have explained things a bit better now. You should have no problems. There is a small Sainsbugs opposite you, for necessities. It has taken over from the Woolworths that used to be on that site.

Ta ta for now.

morning everyone.
a stick of rock wringing it's way to you Stephen! :-)
just been reading this thread.

<3 to Jean.
Good news about you becoming a Granny Linda :-)
Have a nice day everyone x

Like Marilyn said have some whisky :-)

I am taking a chance here that you will get to see this. it is a game of roulette for me today will go to the boards? or will I get sorrry working on an error..because that is what is happening to me today.
so here goes thank you for that information Maddie.
Shelley I hope you have not got the cold that is doing its round here they end up with runny noses and coughs. my daughter has it at the moment they go away the same day as me.to Dorset.

Marilyn I wondered as when friends have had a new wedding ring they get the vicar to bless it or the priest.
I wear my wedding ring and my husbands have done since he died.
