Hi everybody.

It's very warm here but no sunshine, just grey sky. Hope it doesn't rain because I've got the bedding on the line.

Just waiting for my last wash-load to finish and then I'm going to pop over to my cousin's............ he only lives across the road.

Agatha, I think being small makes Oscar look cute.

00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for Jean, hope it goes well for you today.

I had a look at that hotel Pat and it looks lovely, there's some beautiful places in Scotland.


Edit: It took ages for this post to show up, just kept getting the ERROR message!!

Good afternoon Rita, Dermot, and anyone else who just might look in.

Hope you've all had a brilliant day in this lovely warm sunshine.

George :-)

Afternoon All !

I have spent the day at my own place for a change......lots to catch up with.
There was some Ivy that need a good trimming back.....I like the Ivy but it grows like wildfire. Also managed to cut all the grass areas.....all looking nice and trim now
:-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Awww Marilyn,
I'm hurt......the Castle is only needing a 60 minute makeover
;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)
It has a fantastic History and I know I could make it look as good as new. :-D :-D :-D :-D
I want to leave it for my family.....and preserve a bit of Scottish History.
And you can make the Drapes like you suggested.
;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)
Having a nice big glass of chilled Irn-Bru and a nice relax.

Catch you later.

Hi George....

Just got back from Hospital......all OK .

It is still rather dull here but not cold.

Dermot.......why do they release them so early ? suppose he'll do it again..hmm

I remember when my dad was a councillor many years ago he would never ever claim for a pencil and it was all voluntary work back in the 50's days , but he could have claimed for stamps ,but knowing my dad he never did .

I'm sure half of these MP'S want the job for the claimant benefits .

Edit...
Hi Stevey ......just seen your post !

Jean ...how are you xxxxxxxx

Hi everyone,
My Monday wasn't too bad. I left my holiday request foem on my boss's desk for him to see when he comes back next week from his hols :-)
I was busy reading this morning before work because I wanted to take my book back to the library today.
I've decided that I'd spend Augst reading my own books. I've got a pile of books by the armchair and I can't really remeber what books I've got :-S
I'm halfway through eating fish and chips.
i wonder what Jim Devine will do now for a job?
Jean I hope the hospital went ok <3
I got a mini road atlas from the book book so when I go to Scotland and my other coach trips I'll know where I'm going!

He wont need to look for a job Jim Devine I read somewhere they get paid just the same even when in Prison. mind you he might not get in at the next election.
what a world we are living in all these countries going broke many are fighting others wars . so that must cost a good bit out of the purse. just shows you what ever government are in , they must all spend far too much money to get into financial trouble.?

Rita

anyway nice day today. hope you all have a nice day whereever you are.

Rita

Morning All !

Rita......the thread went completly wonky last night. I gave up trying to get on.

The dates and times had all been changed around.......and it don't take a lot to confuse me :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S :-S

Have a good day ya all !

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Morning all, hope you had a restful night.
I have been trying since 4.45 am to get into this thread, couldn't get off psge 1, kept getting the error message. I do wish GR would get their act together and sort out the problems lots of people seem to be having.
Oh dear, a real grumpy old woman aren't I.

Aquick breakfast this morning,
Hot rolls, bacon, eggs and sausage.
Tea or coffee.

Hope you all have a good day, it is warm here, but has rained during the night so a bit damp, dont think I will be doing much in the garden

Treatment went ok yesterday, but the side effects seem to be increasing so am not feeling good, BUT at least I'm alive!!!!
Take care and stay safe whatever you are doing today.
Jean xx :-) :-) :-)

Morning Rita, Stephen and Jenwren,

A nice warm start to the day and the forecast is for a lovely sunny hot day.

Off to Bournmouth later, so all have a great day and hopefully say hello this evening.

George :-D :-D :-D

Morning all, it's really warm again but dull and overcast. Yesterday (early evening) we had torrential rain for about an hour............ I could hardly see out of the window, it was that heavy. My hubby was out running when it started, he came home looking like he'd fell in the river.

Stephen, I think you could probably take the owner of that building to court under the Trade Descriptions Act........... although I think it's called the Property Misdecriptions Act now.



Edit: I was typing this post and it just disappeared, I was nowhere near the Submit button but it was submitted.

Anyway, I was going to say to Stephen................. I'd like to see it when you've finished it, it's going to take a lot to make it look like a castle though. :-)

Jean try to get plenty of rest 000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Morning Again,

Was on the Net for something so thought I'd drop in........Yipppeeeeee !

Saying Cheerio for a while, I'm heading off for a well earned break :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Just gonna point the nose of my wee yacht to go West, find a favourable wind and stick with that. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Catch you when I return.....about 3-4 weeks ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Bye !

Morning All,


Just thought .....Where's Maddie & Mo & Yvonne ???????

Perhaps all gone on holls.

I got up late today......I seemed to have just rolled over :-).

Its sunny anyway, wouldn't mind joining our Stevey for a sail .. :-D

Jean , glad your OK just flop around the house and take it easy today, ;-)

Bath running .....back later.

Hi ya all

Just had a lovely week in the Lake District, we stayed just outside Windermere. Such lovely countryside, went to Keswick, Conniston and a trip up to Hadrian's Wall. OH and son went swimming in Conniston, a bit too cold for me lol. Visited my Aunt while up there.

Now catching up with all the washing and been reading through the thread. Back to work this evening.

Hope you are feeling better soon Jean

<3

WELCOME BACK YVONNE I am pleased you had such a good holiday. now you have to face the washing and ironing, but you dont mind that when you have had a nice break from everyday routine.

love Rita
