Hi All
I feel like I have had a shower with all my clothes on it is so hot it must surely be the hottes day yet..
I have another Great Grandson named Taylor do not know the weight yet so that is another added to my list whooppee.

The doctor had told me he is writing to the other doctor at the hospital and telling him he is treating me from now on. he said Rita you have enough problems and your cancer and you can do without all this. I am going to have blood teste done every 6 weeks for my PMR and if the blood is all right t I will be reducing my steriods down by one. I said thank s for that it put so much weight on me
I had my warfarin blood level test done that is not so good my blood is too thin so I have to have another blood test done on 27th after I come back from my holidays.so that is sorted as well.

My sister visited her young sons grave in Italy this week stayed for four days went with my, nephew from USA her eldest son. They went for a walk in the park before going back to the hotel to collect their cases.
My sister noticed a push chair running along towards the Lake.no baby in it.she ran like mad to try and stop it going into the Lake my nephew beat her to it . it fell into the lake and he grabbed it before it sunk.
she noticed a cafe nearby and went in and asked in Italian if some-one had a push chair outside as it had run into the Lake but it had got soaked but was alright.The women came out rushing to the push chair
My sister said she then remember she had left her handbag on the park bench with her money and passport in it. she said it was still there she said I bet it would not have been if it had been in London. she had her wallet stolen once when we were there.and she was holding her bag at the time.

Rita

Rita your sister was very lucky not to have her bag stolen wasn't she?
You and your sister always seem to have eventful holidays.
It's just as well the woman hadn't left her child in the pushchair. People often used to leave babies outside of shops while they popped inside. Nobody does that now.

Shelly are you sitting with your feet up now?

Looks like Mo and Linda have spent the day washing everything in the house.

Elizabeth I got a card off you today, thank you for your kind thoughts.

Dear All

Hello

Hope you are okay and keeping cool!

Dear Pauline......that's okay, I am glad you like it.

Internet connection seems to have restored!
Now for the serious work of sounding reasearch info across to Oz cousins, who have been patiently waiting for details on our ancestors.

No visits planned to fetes this Saturday....to be honest, it will be too hot!

Take gentle care all
Very best wishes

No way for an upgrade!
Its taken me long enough to get to grips with the mechanics of the PC.

What about when we all have to go digital?

That will be a laugh at our expense.............literally and for radios too.
Stuff that!

Take gentle care
Very best wishes

Morning everyone
Guessing our late nighters are still in bed, Shelly, Elizabeth and Pauline.

I shan't watch the footie either as hubby will be at work and I'm likely to be here on my own.

Lots of watering going on around here to try and save our beuatiful plants. Watching the news now on Rothbury, it is very wet up there. Glad to see the problem is resolved. Maybe not the way some would have liked, but at least the threats he made are now finished.

Well must go and see to my neighbours garden as they are away seeing their new grandchild, don't think any pots will last 4 days.

Managed some knitting last night. and more research too.

Have a good day everyone

Linda :o) XxX

erm linda im up thank you lol

(_)? (_)? (_)? (_)?

i dont have much of a flower bed so dont take long with the waltering can

and it looks like the sunflowers are budding already and there not even that big yet

im up cos iv work today i no i dont nomaly work on saterday
so want be back till afther 1pm

I am one that will not be watching Foottie. I have always enjoyed Football have been fan of Chelsea since I was 17 but over the past years and this year especially it has been rammed down our throats all the programes altered because of it not on one channel but on three.then we had Tennis and Golf .
why they have to cancel so many of the regular programes beats me.they are saving money I think they show repeats now istead of the normal dramas.
so I will be pleased when it is all over and we get back to normal.
Elizabeth and Pauline I will make you some pop corn while you are watching that and you can have a glass of wine with them.but dont shout too loud please when the scoring starts I have a head ache because of the heat.
I just heard on the radio old people and young people are most affected by the heat and to take protection against it. the next bit said Hose-pipe bands coming into force in certain area;s and there was me thinking I could stand under the hose-pipe and get cool all day.

hope you all have a good weekend.

Rita.

Rita I hope you put your bikini on before you stand under the hosepipe.

Don't think I'd be able to sit through a whole footie match but I will watch bits of it.......even if it's just for the food and drink you lot are providing.

Our weather isn't as hot as it is down south but it's just right for me.

We haven't had rain for a few days so the pots are looking a bit parched - might even have to water them...........not something I usually have to do.

Dont have a bikini Pauline I was going to stand there in the nude.

I went to Waitrose to get a few bits I needed befor it got too hot. that way I would missed the crowd, they had the same idea it was packed.
I only had to buy milk, biscuits and butter and a melon.but I had a long wait to get to the till.
On the way back i saw an"emergeny call Doctor" lights flashing he had stopped and went into a house near me. I have noticed a lot of" Dr on call "recently I wondered if it was due t the heat. ?

I think that is why the computers may be playing up due to this heat. it does some funny things.


Stay out of the sun you ladies do not forget to put your sun cream on if you go out in the sun.


Rita

Hi girls just a quickie.
It's beautiful here in Dymchurch. The hotel is lovely,the people are great.
Can't stop just on our way out. I hope you are all well,and not suffering to much from this heat.
Stay safe,keep inside in the cool.
Speak to you soon. Love Mo xxx

Its ME

I am feeling hotter than ever l thought it might cool down a little but it seem to be hotter than ever. still must not grumble.

I thought I would let you all know that according to a thread on the broads Bruce Forsthy is the first one on WDYTYA
so it appears it will be the week I am away SHAME wipes tears.
I was looking forward to his one as I want to see if they come up with a match with Marilyns father.but it is the week I am away.
so I want you to tell me when I come back what happened I go on Friday for 8 days. I might see it on the Tv in the Hotel but not sure what time it will be on.?

Ist this exciting I bet Marilyn is looking forward to that as well.I hope she gets some information from it for her tree.

Rita

Hi everyone

another scorcher, phew I'm melting

didn't sleep very well last night, too hot.

Busy packing for holiday we go Monday so I will miss Brucie too
fil is looking after the dog and our hanging baskets but the plants in the pots will have to stay where they are and hope they don't suffer too much

Rita if you stand under the hose in the nudie perhaps it will frighten the kids away ! lol
x

Yvonne are you saying I look like a monster ? Lol I stood in the nudie I would be locked up I would be surounded by police. on the other hand might not be a bad idea.
But dont tell the others they might want to come and watch. On second thoughts I would look like a monster.

The last I heard about the Kids was that the Trust here is writing a letter to the housing association who own the houses the Kids live in to warn them they will take action if they keep it up.
I would hate the families to be evicted but dont think it will come to that.
I think and hope the letter will do the trick.

Sounds as if a lot of us will be on holiday next week and or week after I go on Friday next.so I will be here next week till Thursday.This thread will be empty unless Jean and Elizabeth and Shelly are around
I am sitting here typing this with just my thin nightie on I am so hot.
tonight it will be hard to sleep.in this heat.

by for now
Rita
