Rita

Morning all
I too hope Jean has a good week
No news on Dad yet, will ring round the family later.
Little coming early this week, we have road works near where she lives so she is coming early to try to avoid some of the traffic.
Have done some ironing already.
Went to youngest daughters last night, two littl groups of children knocked early so they had lollies. Lots were out and about with parents. Daughter only had one lot knock and that was before we got there. We had a chinese take away to eat and it was very nice.

Well off to get ready

Linda :o) XxXX

O so not on your bike me go for a run yer that will be the day and not on a bike ether now could go for a walk but dont think so some how way to lazzy NAR will have to be the ca

im off got work to go to see you all later

My son emailed me to say two of his children went out trick and treating they came back with loads of sweets. I didnt get anyone here we dont get them normally anyway.
Linda. I do hope you get good news.
strange how they always start road works near holiday times here. and they dig the roads up and you dont see anyone for weeks. then they start working for a couple of weeks then clear off again.

Shelly I didnt bother making tea this morning. I knew if I poured it out it would go cold as you lot dont get up early ? Lol
I hate waste I didnt want to throw it away. if it had been during the war then I would have saved the cold tea and bottled it.we use to paint our legs with it to make out we had stocking on and used a dark pencil to make the seam at tha back of the stockings . Lol

Maddie I thought it strange when you said you were off work. I thought you ment retiring..
all theses people off to work.

Rita

Rita, if Maddie's not retired at 92.......she never will retire. Besides, how would she pay for all those face-lifts if she didn't work? Mind you, all that skin knotted at the top of her head fitted nicely into the pointed hat last night.

I couldn't go flying with you last night because my trendy turbo charged vacuum cleaner broke down and I'd thrown the old broomstick away. I heard about the antics you all got up to though, it was on the national news at 5am this morning.

I didn't get any little witches or warlocks knocking at my door last night, but it was raining heavy so maybe they didn't want to get wet...........I'll just have to eat all the sweets myself.

Keeping my fingers crossed for Linda's dad.

And hope Jean is doing OK.

Forgot to mention I found 7 clocks to change yesterday.
This morning I saw the Wall clock in the kitchen still needs putting back the hour.............. I can't reach it. Why do we need it when there is a clock on the cooker and microwave too. Iguess it's in case the electric goes off?

Then there is one in the dining room done that now.

Still haven't done my mobile yet.

Have a nice afternoon

Linda :o) XxX

Pauline that was a good excuse. I had a spare one here I could have sent it remote control up to you. you didnt want to go out in the dark and cold be honest that was your excuse. Lol
Marilyn only went away so she didnt have to go flying on a broom stick.
I bet she wished she was still here in cold england.

you have all those sweeties as you stuck ghost and horrible things on you gate and windows so that put those poor children off knocking on your door because you wanted those sweets your self..
send me some, I wont tell anyone.

Rita

My Daughter telephoned to say my son in law is feeling a lot better since he had his last chemo and he is eating more. so that is a good sign. he will never be able to work again they told him that. but he is soon to retire from his job he is a driver and cannot so that. he has to have some more tests done on his legs are they are very weak.

My dear little Granddaughter Megan the one who has had many operation on her bowels is to have anther as the others have not worked and she is in a lot of pain. poor little thing she really is.

Rita

Sending lots of jelly snakes and things down the cyber hatch for Rita. The jelly fingers and ears are very tasty Rita.

How much longer does Steve have to have his chemo, Rita?

Linda, my kitchen clock is always the last one to get changed because I can't reach it, have to wait for hubby getting round to doing it. I forgot about my mobile, better do it now............thanks for reminding me.

Hi, what was everyone up to last night, just been reading about an invasion of witches on broomsticks terrorising London, LOL, was it you lot, all over the front pages of several papers. Bet London will never be the same again.
Hope you have all recovered from your night out, no hangovers????
What are your plans for Bonfire ight, anyone having a party?

Take care all.
Jean xx

Hello folks.
I am still suffering from last nights antic. My back is killing me,from bending so low on my broomstick. Poor old Mystic Meg the cat, has gone into retirement,she cant take anymore fireworks zooming past her. LOL

Jean, we are not doing anything special on bonfire night. We will probably stay indoors,in the warm. I don't like the blooming things anyway, they frighten the life out of me. I dread a rocket coming down from the sky,and hitting me on the head.
Even when my children were little, we were tight and only allowed sparklers in the garden. Even then they had to wear gloves, in case they burnt their fingers.

Linda. the only clock we can't change, is the one in our car. No matter what Roly does, the blessed thing will not change. He follows the instructions from the manufacturer,he sets it, and then the blessed thing changes back by itself. So now I have to remember to take an hour of off the time,when we are out in the car.

Girls you need radio controlled clocks they alter themselves. I have one.
I did all mine on the sunday morning pauline I got all your emails they came with three others from friends in Norfolk.

Pauline
Steve has finished his course of Chemo he has to take chemo tablets still and he had a scan done they were pleased with that. but they are worried about his legs as they are very weak and they have no idea why. they are going to fo test later in the month. but otherwise things seems to have worked out well..
I dont like jelly snakes only Jelly Babies I bite their head off. Lol

Jean good job you didnt go with us. it was cold and there were so many funny people about . It was enough to give you the golly wobbles. (perhaps I should not have said that word )

Jean I dont go to fireworks parties anymore and I am worried about this one with the fireman on strike. I hope we dont get any really bad accidents
.when I lived in Norfolk the firework parties were all under control with fireman running them .and the Beach used to have a big bonfire and fireworks but not rockets because of the Life Boats signals could have got mistaken for then to go out.
But we all had great fun.

I was sitting here answering my emails when one of my neighbours came he tapped on the window I wont tell you what I nearly did. but it made me jump. he is a bit excentric he is a retired Don from Oxford university. he creeps up on me and scares the daylights out of me at times. he only wants to speak to me or ask me something.but it dont do my heart any good.

Rita

Rita,

Could you ask your Oxford Don if he knew Professor Gordon Marshall.

Gordon is a friend of mine and I know he spent some time at Oxford. Not sure what he lectured in.

Gordon is now Vice-Chancellor at Reading University.

Best wishes,

Stephen

Stephen I will ask him. next time I see him. but I can tell you George is an excentric and I have to laugh at some of the things he does often he cannot remember my name or his own when he asks me things i have to repeat them as he forget as soon as you tell him so dont hold your breath he will know. but I will ask him By the way when George first moved here about 2 years ago his mail was addressed t him as Dr ,

Rita

HELP !

Any suggestions on how to turn back my 'Body Clock ?

Normally I waken around about 5am or so. With the clocks going back this wee chap is now waking at 4 am.

What a nuisance that is. Can't do anything because half the world is still asleep.

Can't even work in the garage. Might waken the sheep with the noise.

Twiddle my thumbs ! That gets boring after a wee while.

I have the washing all done ready to go out at first light.....if it dont rain that is.

Tidied the kitchen...all the dishes cleaned and put away.

Did a bit of emailing...when folk see the time they were sent they will think I'm half daft. Well they got that right eh !!!

Enjoy your breakfast......it gave me something to do.

Have a good day ya all !

Morning all
Thanks for the breakfast Stephen
You must be having a second childhood, it takes the little ones a while to adjust.
It's drizzly here, but warm and supposed to brighten up.
Saw my eldest daughter last night and we had a nice meal together.
Little here early again today so must get on.

Catch you all later

Linda :o) XxX
