There you are Linda - you are cheeky. I'm not yet eccentric, just odd.

I think some peoples attitude to those in wheelchairs is appaling.
I was in hospital having had a heart attack. A porter took me from the ward to X-Ray. On the way back another porter came along and asked my porter was he coming for tea break. When my porter explained he had to take me back, the other one said "Oh leave him there, he doesn't know where he is anyway - take him after"
At the time I was too ill to respond, and sat in the corridor for half an hour.

I've never seen the Mona Lisa but I did go to the Tate Gallery once to see an exhibition of William Blake paintings .....now they really are small !

Persey ..... I'll go along with what ever the dentist suggests but your probably not wrong and it ought to come out but I'm a self confessed coward : )

I am off to the big bed, I need my beauty sleep before tomorrow, although I think if I slept for a hundred years it wouldn't have much effect lol.

Good night up top and have an outspoken day down under

Goodnight Linda , have a lovely time tomorrow : ))

Sue , Persey and Berona , enjoy your days .

I'm going to be off now as well , all the fresh air earlier has made me tired .

Sweet dreams to everyone .

Linda - it did look much smaller to me than I expected, the first time - but this lady had been there only two years previously! Did she think the painting had shrunk?

Good night. Keep warm. I'll lend you my bedsocks. I couldn't get to sleep for a long while, night before last, because my feet were cold - so I wore bedsocks last night and had a good night's sleep. (in November??? - swimming season started a month ago!).

Still wet outside, but no rain. Must have come down overnight. Sun keeps poking through, but doesn't stay long.

Good night up toppers. I need to do some h***ew**k.

Nite all~~

Being kicked off the puter and no access to lappy tonite !

Sandie.x

Bye Berona, Enjoy your dusting lol.

Nos da Sandie - Good Luck to Wales tomorrow,
sleep well.

Sorry Pam I forgot to wave to you ~~~~~~~~~~ and you being so efficient at waving now!! How are the birds?

Love Persey xx

~~~~~~~Persey. Looks like I've come in again when there's no one here.

Been busy the last few days with work and having birds to check up on and feed each morning (usually before I've had my breakfast) it's a full on day. Not long got home.

Still don't have my washing machine back from the repairers. I'm beginning to wonder if they're having trouble getting the parts. It's a Fysher and Paykel so maybe they've had to send to EnZed for them, eh? So, after work I had to go to the laundromat otherwise I won't have any clothes to wear after tomorrow. Still, it gave me a chance to read my book for 3/4 of an hour and unwind from work, which was good.

Came home and hung it up. I use the balcony upstairs to hang the washing because it gets a good breeze through there. I don't really use the upstairs for anything other than a spare bedroom if someone comes to stay, which is rare, and for storage. So, if there's clothes hanging out there, there's no one to offend.

Sorry I missed you all but I'll see how I feel and maybe come back later. About to get my dinner and in 1/2 hour Spooks is on TV so I'm going to watch it and see what it's about. I'd like to know especially when there's someone here who finds it more interesting that this Aussie connection.

Bye for now.

Pam.

Hi to all~~

It's 6.11.10 6pm ish but there are still fireworks going off, must have been too damp for some last night.

Hope you enjoyed your meet Linda :)

My passport is out of date .. it was not a black one:)..lol

Tec~~ what a dreadful experience in the hospital, eh gods, someone needed reporting !
No results on the rugby games yet ?

Glad you have a date with the consultant Di:)

Speak to you all a bit later~~~~

Sandie.x

Good morning/evening from a sunny - yes sunny - morning in my tiny part of Australia.

My intention today is to get some washing done and then sit on the verandah for a much of the day as I can manage:-))

S x

Good Morning to you Sue ....... I hope you really enjoy your lazy Sunday with your feet up : ))
I bet it's not long before your up on your feet and pottering about in your garden ....lol

Ah....you know me well Amanda. I've just hung some washing out and noticed that a couple of jobs need doing in the garden:-))

S x

That's the ticket Sue ....lol......and one little job leads to another and the sun is beaming down ......before you know it it will be your lunch time and you'll have been out there for several hours ......then of course , all fired up , you'll have to go on a quite excursion to the nearest garden centre to get a few spring plants ......you lucky lady ......lol x

Good Morning/Evening,

Hi Amanda,
Hi Sue,

I have always found it terribly difficult just to sit in my garden, and I have tried. Unless I shut my eyes, you can guarantee before long I will spot something that I just have to attend to immediately. It's a real pain.

Tec.

Good evening Tec...... I am just the same ....lol.....I try really hard to just sit and enjoy but I can't do it !
By the way , yesterday as I was looking out of my front room window I noticed a whole clump of Primroses nestled under some larger plant , so your arn't the only ones that are confused .

Have you had rain again today in Wales ?

Amanda it's a real shame that we seem incapable of just sitting and enjoying the results of our labour, but we can't help it.
I'm glad my primroses are not the only confused ones.
Another freaky thing has happend. I have some agapanthus in a large pot, only one huge flower this year, but today I noticed a new bud forming. Hard enough to get flowering in summer, but in November?

Tec.
