My access seems Ok, but I'm not shouting out loud.

Lot of rain through the night. But clear at the moment. I saw that Scotland is on a flood alert, I hope there aren't any problems.

Off to Portsmouth with friends this afternoon, just going to buy some fish? Should be a nice trip out.

Have a good day everyone

Linda :-) <3

Morning everyone,
There was maintenance work on the thread last night.
Linda wave to Spinnaker Tower for me when you see it!
It's sunny here Stephen :-)

I agree with you all about the site it is so slow but then I am finding the same happening with Google I can wash my hatr in the time it takes to get on just shows you I tried to get onto google and put the kettle on and made a cup of tea. before I could look at the site.
as for GR I loved the pictures but do we have to have so many problems getting onto the threads. ? then when you get the GR site and try and get the lists, you keep trying and nothing happens. I sit here and get so frustrated then you type a message and a thread and it either take a time to go through or you get sorry error

anyway good mornin g to you all. the sun is out at the MOMENT. I am doing my weekly wash so I am waiting for the machine now.to finish its cycle.

Rita

Morning all, it's horrible here - not raining as such but a damp mist. Took me ages to straighten my hair (naturally curly) then I walked to the bottom of the drive with my son and the mist made it all curly and frizzy again. I was only outside for 5 minutes and I looked like Dianna Ross (well, not the face and figure, just the hair) - I'll have to straighten it again now.

I see the site is still running slow again this morning.......... hmm, that's a contradiction in terms - 'run slow'.

Stephen, I'm not keeping that horrible avatar, it was just for another thread. Can't decide whether to go back to my own avatar or pick a different one.

I know Stephen has worse weather than me but I hope the rest of you have better weather.

Afternoon everyone

I was meant to be at the hairdressers this afternoon but when I went at my appointed time I had been booked for next Wednesday so now going tomorrow afternoon. I only made the appointment Monday.

Nice and sunny here, was raining a little this morning

Keeping fingers crossed for Jean and her family, hope they get things sorted with Scarlett, It would be terrible to lose her after all this time.

Don't get your feet wet Stephen

<3

Just been out. It tried to rain but it didn't come to much.
Last night Kathy next door told me her husband was in hospital after suffering a slight stroke. I only live down the road from the hospital so I got Rory some flowers and I'll take them up tonight. It seems strnage getting a man flowers but I couldn't think what else to get. :-S

The flowers will cheer him up Pat, something nice and colourful for him to look at.

Perks of reaching 50 or being over 60 & heading towards 70 or beyond!

1. Kidnappers are not very interested in you.

2. In a hostage situation, you are likely to be released first.

3. No one expects you to run -- anywhere.

4. People call at 9 PM (or 9 AM) and ask, 'Did I wake you?'

5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.

6. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.

7. Things you buy now won't wear out.

8. You can eat supper at 4 PM.

9. You can live without sex but not your glasses.

10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.

11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.

12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.

13. You sing along with elevator music.

14. Your eyes won't get much worse.

15. Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.

16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.

17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they can't remember them either.

18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to a manageable size.

19. You can't remember who sent you this list.

AND THE MOST IMPORTANT THING:

21. Never, NEVER, NEVER, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill, and a laxative on the same night!

22. You didn't notice there is no number 20.

The hospital dont allow flowers in the hospital due to viruses.
my daughter took a photo of the bunch she brought me and gave me the photo she said my flowers for you are in the car.

I had a lovely afternoon out with David from the Rotary club he called for me at 1.45 in his old Buick car 40 years old. he shows the car at special gatherings it really is his pride and joy.
I think he is showing it at Ripley this weekend. anyway we drove around the lovely countryside of Surrey passed old wooden farms and lovely old churchs and houses many of the villages didnt have shops. image that no shops in your village.. he drove through Esher, Bookham. Ripley and Horsoll we were taken to a hill and the car was park so we could sit and enjoy the lovely South Downs. we went beside a canal with little boats on and tea house had an ice cream. then drove on to By fleet and the to a big Garden Center where they had laid tea out for us piles of different sandwiches and cakes we had a pot of tea each. after tea we wandered around the center and went to the farm shop before drivng back home. I got home at 5.15
He told me I am on their list so expect other outings.
