Morning Mo
Thanks for breakfast
Hope you get good news Jean and are allowed home, maybe not for good behaviour? But because they think you are too happy to be in there.
Very windy here, but at least it is dry at the moment.

Have a good day everyone

You must all be tired out with the flying last night

Linda :o) XxX

Jean I am pleased it gave you a good laugh. we are a mad crowd thats for sure. but it is only a bit of fun and without fun and laughter what would life be like.?

I was thinking if someone could design a motor Broomstick which didnt use fuel think of all the money you would save? and there would be no traffic jams on the ground might find a few in the sky with all these aircraft.?and you would save money no road tax. or MOT and repairs to the car.you would not have to worry about going down a pot hole.
The broomstick would be easier to park you can stand it up in a corner. lol

have a good day everyone Jean hope you get the news of home your be happy then.

Hi Shelly i have been shopping I was out of bread so had to get one. I use a large loaf up a week. well all except two slices.which I give to the birds.
It was so windy nearly blew me off my feet. it is not cold just windy. I took a large bag of stuff into the charity shop which I had thrown out of the cupboards I had cleared in the week..
Then took a perscription into the chemist and came home. the wind took your breath away. I was surprised there were no many people shopping this morning.
I think Marilyn comes home this weekend ? not too sure.
see you later.

HELLO, I'm going home, yipee!!!
The doctor signed my discharge form about an hour ago, I asked if I had to wait until tomorrow but he said I could go today if I promised to rest at home.
Am dressed, waiting for Susan to come and collect me,
Thank you all again for all your messages and for last night,
the nurses on duty tonight wont have as many laughs tonight.

Take care and stay safe.
Jean xx

See you later. xx

Jean that is wonderful news I am so pleased for you,
I expect they wanted to throw you out because of the noise of those broomsticks last night ?
You must take care when you get home no rushing about thinking you can do this or that leave it. because if you were still in hospital it would not get done. so stay warm and keep your lappy going.
Love

Hi everyone.
My sister was just telling me she went to see this film all the fuss is about with Colin Firth "The Kings Speach " she said she was so disappinted in it she found it quiet boring. and otthers said the same, It appears Colin Firth was good in the part but that was IT.
she also told me it cost her £7 for her ticket as a senior Citzen last time we went it cost us £5 that was last June what a difference in ticket prices, no wonder they cannot fill these cinema's up.
The shows in the city cost and arm and a leg to go and see..

I had a little sleep this afternoon only half l an hour but I feel better after that.

see you all later.

Yipee Jean
No fun and frolics tonight !!! See what good thoughts do. I am sure you will be much happier in your own surroundings. But please do rest. you will get tired just being home and don't try to do anything that can be left. Are the horses nearby?

Rita the last time I went to the cinema it was to see Mama Mia, I can't remember how much I paid. I was quite interested in seeing The Kings Speech. But I will think twice after your sisters comments. I will wait until it comes on TV or is released as a DVD. Which seems very quickly nowadays.

I have been researching a side branch of my family tree but have hit a dividing of the ways with no clear way to follow.

Hubby is at work. We walked to the local Tesco this morning it was quite breezy. But we couldn't get anything frozen or from the chill cabinets ie milk(that we needed)as the electric board had cut their power. They lost all the foods in there. And at 9:00 hadn't been able to get new stuff delivered. Glad we didn't need more.
I have just been in the garden sweeping up leaves on the patio, still a bit damp so sticking to the slabs but it's a bit tidier now.

It's getting darker, not as light as yesterday. Might even rain again but I hope not.

Linda :o) XxX

Linda I bet you were sweeping the leaves up all day. with a wind like we have here, the trees will be bare in now time. we have a commual gardener calls here every week for an hour,
I have a tiny strip of garden at the front and one at the back of my flat have been keeping it neat myself, but these young lads to my surprised have removed all the dead shoots and stalks and dug the soil over. I was so pleased when I went out this morning and saw what they had done in the back strip I still have a couple of lovely roses a peach colour they will be gone by morning with the way this wind is blowing , I have loads of bluebells coming up they are all over the ground. I do love to see them when appears and they smell so nice.

When my old wedding ring was new,

when I was in Italy with my sister, they had a guy named Geogio he use to play and sing, he was very good he made a CD Album and my sister and I brought one each.he performed in our hotel in the evenings
we have to laugh when we play it as he sings Mack the Knife. and it is so funny his accent. but he sings really well.

A dog goes into a Pub and asks for a pint of beer.

'You're not getting served' in here said the barman.

So the dog left the pub.
