Not very posh Linda - just nice. Now the University one is posh. A lot of very academic people and local dignitaries - I'm way out of my depth with this one. I much prefer small luncheons with people I know.

I have a nice pair of black trousers and change the look with different tops:-))

Goodness Sue ....it sounds as if you have a packed agenda .

I'm sure Friday will go well . Have you got to do a speech or anything ? You can always practice on us lot you know : )

Linda , you'll wear holes in your knees with all that crawling .....lol

Tecwyn

Well everything is relative - and compared to me!

Good evening Tec , I hope you and the Dutchess have had a nice day today : )

Hello Tec - you must be speaking to me and Amanda:-))

I don't know why Linda is crawling - I said we'd visit when we go to the UK.

Amanda - I don't have to give a speech thankfully. I don't usually mind because it's with people I know. I think I'd be a wreck if I had to stand up in front of people I don't know.

Well that's a relief for you Sue ......if your not expected to give a speech you can just sit quietly and look demure and faintly embarrassed about all the fuss of the " unveiling " ....lol
Will you have your OH and colleges as " back up " ?

Sue you are very naughty, I think you are baiting Linda. She'll get you.

Amanda, Yes thank you it was a good day, the weather was glorious, sunny and warm, and no wind.

Tec.

you get used to it teaching Sue. Try standing on the stage in the school hall and talking to seven hundred people

LindainHerriotCountry Report 10 Oct 2010 21:17

Linda is in a mellow mood tonight and will not be bated and no I have not had any alcohol before you ask

Amanda2003

Amanda2003 Report 10 Oct 2010 21:19

It was a glorious day here too Tec......lovely to see the sunshine : ))

I'm feeling mellow as well Linda : ))

I guess you would get used to it as a teacher. As I said I can stand up and talk to people when I know them - or at least the majority of them - but I would find it difficult to speak to a group of people I didn't know.

Amanda - I'm not the only one with a photo up on the wall so we can all sit there demurely:-)) My OH has been invited and a colleague will be there too.

Tec - it sounds like you've had a lovely day. Nice weather for all of you. It's miserable here.

Linda doesn't scare me:-))

So what have you been up to today Tec? You are the only one who hasn't said and you know how nosey we women are

I was wondering that Tec. Did you go to Newtown for the day on Saturday?

I think Tec, must be having a moon lit stroll again. The Duchess didn't want to go out,so they didn't go Sue.

See, my brain is not addled, I remembered that

I did more tidying in the garden - the garden refuse bin goes in the morning, so I filled that to bursting. There's lots more to do, but a bit later.

Tec.

LindainHerriotCountry

LindainHerriotCountry Report 10 Oct 2010 21:47

Our garden bin goes tomorrow as well Tec, I just asked OH if he had put it out and he hasn't,so it is a good job you said that

Tecwyn

Tecwyn Report 10 Oct 2010 21:50

No Sue, as Linda said, we didn't go out, maybe later in the week.
I haven't been for a moonlit stroll - I'll wait 'till himself sits bolt upright and stares into my face, which is my cue to go.

Tec.
