Hi everyone

the face cream is by l'oreal, Age Perfect, I was using a cream from Avon but it's perfumed and the smell made my eyes water ( i know that sounds odd)

I don't like shopping for clothes cos I see something I like but when I try it on it looks wrong, I'm quite short, a lot of clothes are made for taller people.

Aww, I hope he's OK Shelly, you'll have to make sure he doesn't pull the bandages off. Hope he's not too sore afterwards, did the hospital say whether he would be in a lot of pain or not?

Well, it's not as cold today as it was yesterday, still cold but not as bad because we don't have that horrible cold wind we had yesterday. We've even got sunshine!!

I've tried that one Yvonne, didn't do anything for me, think it's a face lift I need.

Pauline i have used Astral all my life and my skin is quiet good for my age I had trouble getting it at one time and brought 4 big containers with it in once because it became scarcebut i found a little shop near my sister in Hampstead that stock it so I buy a small one everytime I go there incase I have trouble getting it again.

The workmen have gone I am waiting now to make sure the system works as I kept getting a ringing noise in my call system they said it was the outside one I could hear. I said if it is not I shall complain.

I got my beaker back from the Estate manager she said I am sorry I dont know how I got it I said when you borrowed sugar or milk as you do often when the men come you most likely forgot. anyway I have it back now

tomorrow the window men come to reseal the windows as that came away. and hopefull Friday my sister is coming for the day she is better now but the trains have to be running from Waterloo for her to come there had trouble this morning with signals or something.

Come to think of it Rita, I haven't seen Astral around for ages - wonder why!

Pleased to see you got your beaker back, next time she runs out of anything tell her to bring her own cup.

pauline mention Astral I was going on holiday to Germany and Italy with my sister two years ago and I had forgottem to take my astral cream with me so l tried half a dozen shops near where Sheila lives no luck I tried the airport no luck there either when we got to Paris (first stop ) I found a little old chemist shop there selling it it was such a small container I had to look twice to make sure i had the right one anyway I brought . it cost something like 5 euro. when i came back to England I needed something from the chemist near Sheila's s there they were all lined up in rows my Astrals small medium and large the large ones were on speacial £2.99 so I brought two .
I said to Sheila thats s*** s law for you.
she still has a little laugh when i get my astral out.

Yes she has been pretty nice to me today for some reason ?she said people talk about her behind her back but you (me) always tells her to her face. I said I dont know whether you mean that is a good thing or bad ?but if I dont like something you say or do then I tell you. like not opening the door for my friend when she got locked out but since then when Rose got locked out Monday you opened her door. she said that is because I was on duty with your friend across the way I was on a days leave. I said you didnt do yourself any favours as people will talk when you do things like that.

I do feel l mean at times but what do I do say nothing or speak out.?

Rita

perhaps that is why I have so many illnesses problems I am being mean.

Evening all.
Astral cream is what I have used for donkeys years. I have tried some off the Avon range,but I was allergic to them,so went back to good old faithful.
I have also tried the latest Boots one,but that was when I was working,and able to afford to buy it.
Good luck with the diet Linda. Did you fall asleep when littlie went today.
Seems to me you and Marilyn could have been sisters in a former life,both
suffering from the same ailments. What you need is a good rest,and it's not so easy when you are still working is it.
Rita,get them feet up and rest them. And stop chasing them there workmen around. lol
Shelly what is wrong with little ones finger and toes.? Now you have got me worried,I hope everything goes well.
Hi Pauline,Yvonne, Maz,Liz. Lady And anyone I may have forgotten.
