Good whatever to whoever lol

Tec I do not twitter at any male because I do it all myself, unlike the other ladie's on here, ( who may I say should be very grateful they have a male to have a go at ) I have to rely on only one person to do thing's and that is me. I would be very grateful for any help from a male partner, shame on you all :)

Linda thank's for the piccy of Eve, she is delightful and so so cute. I will e-mail you later hun.

Tec if you or Allan had a younger single brother like yourselves who enjoy cooking and ironing the way you two do I'd be happy with just that.
Now before you lot call me a creep, when you have been on your own for over 32yrs then any help from a partner would be much appreciated :))

Hi Amanda, Yes it's perishing cold out there tonight - sorry you didn't get the boiler fixed.

Diane - I do have two younger brothers, but wouldn't inflict either on you - both would consider it beneath themselves to be found cooking, or ironing, or anything domestic. You wouldn't want to know - trust me.

Tec I did say if they were like yourself, not as you discribe your brother's, they wouldn't get a second look, can't stand male chauvinism, brought mine up to fend for themselves lol.

Hi all~~
Haven't been on for a few days, hubby's had a few days off and I don't wish to appear to be the puter all the time !! and we've been busy out and about.
And I've only just managed to get rid of the flashing adverts on both gr .uk and au, as we can't access za at the mo.
Tried ad block , didn't work, but i've sussed that when you go into Gen ,chat or messages when a new screen comes up the word 'block' appears for a few secs just above the advert so I've gone thro all the uk and au threads doing just that..blocking them. So I can stay on longer now as the flashing adverts were giving me migraines.
Hope everyone is well:)

Hope your hip improves Di, just make sure you keep pestering the Doc !

Sorry to hear of your bad start to the weekend Amanda , I wouldn't dream of touch the gas combi boiler, would have to do with kettle and a flannel wash all weekend like you said:) Keep warm:)

Linda , I never open hubby's letters or any on else's for that matter, bu once they are opened always make a point of asking about apt dates, you can usually tell from the envelope if it's a hosp, dental etc apt, then I write them in my diary...just to make sure:)
The only apts son and dau don't tell me about are the hairdressers, they always remember those!
Glad you haircut was fine, I have one booked for a week today :((
I would rather go to the dentist, hate the hairdressers, cut and coloured my own for 30yrs, it's curly and does it's own thing ! but have succumbed now to having it done professionally... Saved a lot of money over the yrs .lol

Tec ,S'mae, Ladies do not twitter , just keep you men in order !

Sue, Berona , Perse and Pam hope the weather is getting more pleasant for you, it's getting rather nippy here now.
I too love thunderstorms Sue,but hate high winds.

Have only read this page so after posting will have a read of what's been going on, don't want to do it right now and loose all this typing .lol

LOL Sue ... I don't really begrudge you your lovely weather and I hope it remains balmy for your daughter party later : ))

I really don't mind the cold season ( it's just when it keeps switching from hot to cold that it annoys me ) .

Hello Tec , so are you the eldest " child " amongst your siblings ? I'm the youngest and only girl , so always had the privilege of not having to share a bedroom as a child .

Linda I think Diane was reffering to to all the Hmmphing going on. lol.

Diane if my brothers were left alone they would starve to death. I was trained at an early age to look after myself, and otheres.

Linda, only the loony conversation we are having, make's giggle reading but a stranger to the thread would think we definitely are a bunch of escapee's from the local insanity unit lol.

Goog evening Sandie, now that I have been to the Dr's I will make sure I follow through hun.
Sorry to hear you are having a problem with your lappy and getting on here.

Hi Sandy:-))

Tec - were your brothers not taught to look after themselves? My boys are more than capable of looking after themselves although you wouldn't know it with the youngest. When we're away on holiday he cooks, cleans and washes his clothes but when we're home he reverts to a 5 y.o.

Amanda - I am so looking forward to tonight.

Of course they wouldn't starve Tec, they would just send for take aways.

That reminds me that a family came into the tourist office a couple of weeks ago wanting to know where our McDonalds was. We don't have one, or anything like it. We tried to suggest other places they could eat, but all they wanted was junk food. We do have a fish and chip shop in the market square, but it was closed because they had had a fire in one of the fryers. The nearest one which was open was about half a mile away, you would think we were asking them to go to the other end of the earth

Good evening Diane and Sandie .

Diane ..... I don't twitter about men . I started my morning with instant irritations of things going wrong that no doubt my OH could put right quite easily . He left at 3.30 am on his sailing adventure . Trust him to go on an adventure when gales had been forecast ......LOL

Sandie ....it's good to see you back : )

Just didn't want to appear to him that I am a computerholic.lol
