Just popped in to say goodnight everybody.

Poor Marilyn is missing Coach trip,and her favourite person Ben from BB is one of the trippers. Oh dear she will be sooo dissapointed, don't understand it myself, he's a right woos.
But I am enjoying seeing the Chuckle brothers and the two characters from Eastenders, sorry I can't remember their names.

Night god bless.

Its only 6-30 pm and dinner is over, now what am I suppose to do on my own.?

Think I'll do some research.......I did help someone a couple of nights ago on here that was looking for someone with access to (Family Relatives .com) well I have that and found what this person required, so if anyone one wants a look-up I have It !!


Off to find some work to do.

Night everyone !! XXXX

Morning everyone, it is still very dark here, but the forecast is sunny but not very warm for today then back to heavy rain tomorrow.

Morning Jean !

MUUUUUUUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuncccccchhhhhhh !

SLLLLLLLUUUUUUuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrpppppppp!

Thanks for the breakfast......needed that.

\________/_____ Porridge pot.......dig in.

Winter has officially arrived in Scotland.....already we have had a couple of the higher roads blocked with snow.

It's a joke....you can almost tell what the Weather Guy is going to say when he comes to the Road Report....the same roads every year.....blocked.

Not minor routes....major roads to the Communities they serve. Fuel prices in these areas are a lot more expensive than we 'townies' pay. Add the extra miles that they have to make a detour to get to out of their area and the cost of travel rockets. Food like bread and milk is also a lot more expensive as is fresh fruit, veg and meat.

The education of the children also suffers when they can't get to school. High School pupils tend to be 'boarders' during the week so miss out a lot on family life.

Still I suppose living in a remote area does have some advantages !!!!!! ie you don't live in a busy town full of pollution etc.

MOAnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Over.

Lovely crisp morning here.

Hi Ho Hi ho it's off to work I go......well in a wee while yet.

Have a good day ya all !

Dame Shelly, will be think about you and the wee one.

Stephen

Morning everyone
Bit brighter here this morning though I did sleep later, to be honest.

Finished writng the bulk of my cards yesterday evening and draft copy of my round robin letter. Not too keen on them but as I write a hundred cards and probably 30 letters I can't do them all by hand.

Have a good day

Linda :o) XxX

Hi everyone

Thank you for the birthday wishes for yesterday. Pauline I loved the ecard

I was at work yesterday so going out for a family meal on Thursday evening

OH got tickets to Oliver in December, been wanting to see that for ages.
Also got a bithday cake so I'm sending a piece to everyone down the cyber hatch

Hope Oly is ok with his op

xx

Hi Shelly, I hope little mans op went o.k,and that he is back to his own smiley self.

What a fantastic commute to work.

The sun was rising with glorious colours, this was shining on the snow on the hills I could see in the distance. The snow was changing colour by the minute.

Absolutely lovely.

Catch you all later.

Stephen, I love to see all the red colours in the sky when the sun rises, it's beautiful.

I've been out most of today.

Thank you for the cake Yvonne, I'll have it with a cuppa.

Shelly, how did it go, is Olly OK? It'll be strange for him when the bandages come off and he sees his hand is different.

Evening everyone. Been out and about most of the day.
Lovely and crisp and sunny. Makes a change to walk around without wet feet. Had my hair cut into a long bob, so that is most of the layers cut out of it now. Can really do my Audrey Heburn chignon now. lol

Thank you for your offer Rita. I did PM you earlier. Hope Shellys' little un is sitting up and is well. Kids bounce back quicker than adults. He will be up to mischief in no time. Trust everyone else is well.

Put me dinner in the oven, will be ready in about half an hour.

So, will be back later.

Useless Information......

Just found out that TWO rats could become a colony of a MILLION in just 18 months.

Set the traps.....quick.

Dame Shelly.....hope all has gone well today.

Yvonne, Thanks for the cake. Better not drop any crumbs..... might encourage rats.

Where are you all ?

Pauline,

Every sunrise I see is a bonus. If it's nice....it's a double bonus.

I agree Stephen every sunrise and sunset is a bonus.
What I also like is the patterns that jack frost makes on the windscreens of cars,after a heavy overnight frost.
Frost on the trees and bushes are like a magical world to behold.
But frost bite on the fingers, when one has to go shopping, is a definate no no for me.

Ooops back from my magical mystery tour folks, down to earth with a big bump. It's flippin freezing again tonight. I am green with envy at Marilyn in the warmth in the USA.

Sorry the post below was me, it double posted for some unknown reason.

baby is home and every think went well
now looks like he has a boxing clove on lol
and it is funny to see him try and craw as he carnt put that hand on the floor
so he has been woddling on his knees
cheeky little sod is still smileing and now geting a little more livey as the evening go along so think he will be going to bed soon

and me im nacker been up since 5.30 this morning
