I went out this morning. I needed the fresh air I also wanted to buy my chat and Take a Break books. gives me something to do in my spare time
It did not rain 'but it stayed grey all day' then about 4 it started to get colder.I have not put th heating on.
two of my Grandchildren were sent home from school with a tummy bug .they were both sick . so they are home tomorrow now.
My sister went to get her flu Jab today and they only have the flu one on its own .if you want the swine flu jab you can ask and they will do it. her doctors is in Hampsetad Graden Suburb so some have got it single and not double. I wish mine had done the flu one single.
I made my appointment for my Warfarin blood test for 2nd November,today I had no problem normally i have only a few dates left when I phone up. but I had a choice today..

Mo, Thanks for the cups.......Tea and Coffee now ready to pour.

Toast, Cereal, Fruit Juice etc. Help Yourself.

Ready for another busy day ahead.

My dear lady is joining me for lunch in Edinburgh then it's off to an Art Exhibition. Should be exciting........Not.
She who must be obeyed has laid down the Law so your's truly must go.
She puts up with all my mad nonsense so a bit of give from me has to be expected now and again.

Wouldn't change her for the World. She is truly one in a billion.

Apart from that I'm sure no one else would have this mad hatter.

Have a good day ya all !

Morning all. Hope everyone is well.

Well last day of the week for me. As we used to say when I first started work many moons ago

POETS DAY

P@ss Off Early Tomorrows Saturday

Yay.

Going to visit my son in his new flat tomorrow. He lives in Bow. He wants to show us around, so it will be along to Bethnal Green, Roman Road and then, hopefully, pie and mash shop.

Hope the weather keeps fine tomorrow. It is as dull as ditchwater this morning. Really, really grey.

Have a good day everyone, see you all later.

SO you all are still around then? I thought you had all gone to ground and were in hiding.?

We have a grey day again but I have a few things need to do. I have to try and keep busy today too many memories.

I slept well last night after I had read about 10 pages of a book,.a silly old love story one of Mills and Boom Historical Romances.

Stephen Edinburgh brings back memories of staying at my Moher-in-Law in Bervie. we use to go shopping there and always made for the Kilt Shop in the high Street. after going there we went to a big restaraunt where the meals were steaks not sure think it was the "Steak House." My Step Father in Law use to leave us there while he went to a Football match.
and we carried on shopping.
I brought a Kilt at the shop for my daughter

Hi everybody, I've been busy with company, haven't had much time to myself.

I've had a quick look through the posts but can't remember what I've read.

It's dull and grey here as well Maddie, and wet again!

Rita, getting your dad's book published was a great idea wasn't it? I knew lots of people would be interested in it. You must be so pleased you did it.

Marilyn, nice to see you back, hope everything's going to be OK.

Linda, enjoy yourself at Marilyn's and don't forget to take photos of the 2 of you together. I bet Marilyn's booked herself in for a full makeover.

Errrr excuse me Stephen...............but we put up with your madness as well. Fair's fair though - you put up with ours. Hope you and the Mrs have a lovely day.

Shelly, are you off work on Monday? I heard a rumour you may be getting some sort of honour for all the medals you got.

Mo, were you actually using a pack of cards for Solitaire, or playing it on the computer?

Yipeeeeee !

I survived the Art Exhibition.

'The Impressionist Garden'......Monet etc.

Rather nice paintings, well some of them were.

Hope you all have a great weekend.

I'll pop in now and again.....in between Painting, Plumbing, Plastering and some Joinery work.
A niece is in crisis,,,,,Uncle Stephen to the rescue.

Rita.....keep an eye on things. Don't want any medals to get nicked.

Evening all.
Marilyn,I am pleased that things are now getting sorted. I hope you are both feeling better now.

Linda have a ,lovely break away. I hope FIL behaves himself.LOL Bless him.

Maddie, pie mash and licker (liquer dont sound right). Thats a real oldie.We had a pie shop that opened here, but it did not take of,and had to close. It was great for the folks who had moved down here from London, but the locals never liked it.
Now give me peace puddin and faggots,and I'll be well away.

Pauline I was playing solitaire on my lappy, not with cards. That way I could keep popping back on here to see what was happening.
I reckon you are right about Marilyn having a complete makeover, before Linda gets there. Not only for herself, but for the house. Cor blimey, I can just imagine, the feather duster will be out, the polish and air freshener ,the lot. I bet her home is spotless really.
My thoughts are that people take me as they find me, muck and cobwebs and all.

It sounds like you had a great time Stephen. Now don't tell us porkies, you know you enjoyed yourself.
Never mind, it will soon be time for you to put the christmas decorations up, that should keep you busy for a while.

Hi Rita, You have been in my thoughts today love. Keep strong for John, you know he would want you to be.
Has your family been in contact with you today, I do hope so,as you can draw strength from each other at this sad time.

I bet Jean will be looking forward to her weekend free from treatment. Thinking of you as well Jean.

Hi Everyone ....

Just reading back on a few things........gosh took me forever.

Mo, I live with cobwebs.......part of living in a Barn, but the spiders are daddy long legs mainly ,funny I don't mind them as they stay still and don't frighten me as much as those BIG horrible Black or brown ones that wear boots !! LOL

Just to let you know I don't need makeovers .......just plastic surgery ...LOL

Yes Linda will have to find me as I live, just normal..... well maybe light a few candles to soften up the place a bit.... and more smelly's !!

Hi Stephen.......a Monet Art Exhibition ...well well well, how the other half live.

Just going out , so thought I'd let you know I'm still around....out in the morning first thing so be back in the afternoon.
