Have a good day one and all.

Hello Jean
We'd all love you to join our thread. We are old friends on here and chat away about nothing in particular, but have one or two laughs too.

I have just come back from my walk. It's overcast here but rather humid. Must water some pots before my little one comes for the day.

Have a great day everyone

Morning
Linda- Pauline- Sue-Shelly-Marilyn- Liz- Mo-Lady =Yvonne- and Elizabeth of all seasons.and welcome to Jean.
I hope I have not fogtotten anyone >>>>>>

Pauline I have replied to your email you look lovely with those flowers. I bet the girls all agree. ?
To start the day it is warm infact stormy but I hope it stays dry for a while it can rain in the evening.
The Surrey Council lorry arrived yesterday afternoon to collect the ByFleet bus stop, that had been stolen. they were grinning all over their faces. I said someone must have had a party and thought they would put it into a lorry and drop it in the Private car park at the back of my flat.
when I emailed my son and told him. he said" I wondered why those two old ladies were standing at a bus stop that was not there for five hours".he works near Byflaeet but at least it has gone.
some people laughingly took photo's of it. so it has caused some laughter around here.
Must get something to eat now not sure what I want.but have to eat before I take my load of tablets.

Good morning one and all.
I am a bit later today, not that I over laid mind you,I just cant seem to motivate myself this morning.

Rita are you watching Crimewatch U.K. It has replaced Dominic Littlewoods programme.
It makes me smile,how they expect people to be able to recognise people , from CCTV footage. The images are very blurred,that they could be anybody at all. LOL

Welcome to our happy gang Jean. You will be made most welcome by us nutters. But please don't be offended by things we may say to each other,
there is never any malice meant.
We always take the mickey out off each other,but at the end of the day, we are here for one and other.

My goodness Linda,were the pavemenst still wet when you went for your walk.
I bet you got up with your OH, and didn't go back to bed.

Oh Rita, why didn't you get a photo of you and the bus stop taken. You could have put it in with the book of your life story,and given your family a good laugh.

Rita

Rita Report 30 Jun 2010 09:33

Morning Mo
Dont you think my family have enough laughs about me and with me.without me standing there next to a stolen bus stop. I could have been a blurred figure on Crime Watch and accused of stealing the bus stop. it was metal as well not cheap old wood.
I always wondered about the blurred fiqures and how people could reconise them on CCTV Cameras.
But people do it maybe they reconise the clothes or shape of the body or head I suppose..
I think we are in for rain it is so cloudy and humid. I want to go to the chemist and take a perscription over and go to Waitrose. but will wait a while and see what happens.

have a good day.

Morning Sue. she will not let you have her Barn no way. Lol

Marilyn no the community police have not come yet . they said this week but not what day. it could be today for all I know. The boys left a wooden Plater the ones they use for storing brick on , in the private car park which is at the back of this private estate. so when the men came to take the bus stop the old fellow up stairs asked if they would take that as well they did. I said that will be one thing those boys will not be able to tilt and use as a skate board ramp.
I wonder what else we will get. ? their parents must know as they have the" right of way"to get to their road through our estate. which is a small private estate owned by Anchor Trust. they have about 14 or more cars and two motro cycles. so you can imagine the racket we get from time to time.they even leave their cars and their friends leave there car in our Private car park. often.
The ice cream van comes to their road every evening and they start the music up when it passes my flat it makes me jump out of my skin sometimes I wished I had stayed in Norfolk. .

I forgot to say this. I went to take my perscription to the chemist this morning and pointed to the steriods I need theses as well 1 mg. she
said but you had 5 mg when you went away. 2 weeks ago. I told her the hospital phoned me and the doctor said I have to go on 9 mg now and not 10 mg so I need 1 mg as well.
I said my own Doctor told me to stay on 10 amd the hospital doctor on 9 even though I argued about it. so I will take the 1 mg as well and wait to hear from my own Doctor.
Am I the only one that has this trouble one Doctor telling me one thing and another something else. ?
It gives me a headache trying to deceide what I should do.

Hi everybody it's another lovely sunny day.

Linda, good to see you're still keeping up the good work with the walks, at least you've got good weather for it at the moment.

Hello Jean, welcome to our thread, it's a lovely thread full of lovely people - you'll like it here.

Rita, that bus stop gave me a good laugh, pity you didn't take a photo of it, we could have sent it to crime watch and made you famous.

Mo, I don't think I'd be able to recognize anyone from the CCTV footage, I can never make any of them out.

Marilyn, I am in the photo on purpose, you told me to get in the photo..........lol
Did you make any cakes to go with that coffee?

Anyway I think Sue should bring the cakes to make up for going AWOL.

Shelly are you off work today? You're not normally in at this time.

~~~~~~~~~~~~ To Yvonne, Liz and Elizabeth when they get here.

Rita, I don't think any of us have to take as many tablets as you, I don't know how you keep a check of them.

I'll have to rush off now because I'm late again.

Rita Report 30 Jun 2010 14:07

Pauline the hospital Doctor who phones me is a specilist on
Rheumatology . My own Doctor has a list of letter behind his name and deals with most things including doing operation in the hospital.
I know people who take many more tablets than I do, I have always been the type of person who would never take tablets but as I have got older I seem to have more and more. I take Steroids for my PMR. and Arthritus, blood pressure tablets as mine is too high.Warfarin for my blood. plus Gout Tablets and Under active thyriods.co-proximal. so I dare not jump as I rattle.all tablets are for old age Lol.
The problem is having different Doctors telling me different things.
I have bee running through the threads on the boards to see if there is anything on it for me to reply too.

I did a Pasta for my lunch and brought a small triffle for dessert. I keep saying I will go for a walk but I am pass that now.
unless I suddenly make for the f ront door. ?

see you all later.

I did go out caught the bus to Home Base and brought five plants for the front garden. I put my thin rain coat on in case it rained or course it did not and I was sweltering in it so much so I felt giddy but I am home now and not going out again today
I will put the plants in tomorrow morning. dont feel up to it right now.

Then 10 days after that I go to the appointment with the consultant and the results .

I have been out shopping today .......and bought some of the ENGLAND FOOTBALL paraphernalia that was reduced in M&S ....scarves whistles socks & sunglasses for the grand kids , they are all football mad

So they will be delighted......then had to go and get the one and only grand daughter a top and ski pants other wise she would be left out !!.

I bought a top ........that I did not want , but I did when I got to the till LOL.

Now home doing dinner ....home made curry .
