General Chat

Good morning Persey ...... I hope you enjoy your still and warming , bright sunny day : ))

I suppose I could risk an Aussie dream Linda , I paddle in an exotic sea would be quite pleasant .

Fiddlesticks Sue... all tall dark and handsome - I have been to the Aussie beaches and they seemed to be all blond and bronzed. And here was me pale as and then red as.

Spiders are our friends -the Tasmanian Cave Dwelling spider has healing spittle or whatever - I would be more worried about including snakes and crocodiles in my dreams of Oz.

P xx (^_^)

I can think of nothing nicer than sitting in the Aussie sunshine chatting to Berona - what a delightful way to spend the day.

Last night my doorbell went just after 10pm. There on the doorstep was my elderly neighbour, in her 80s. She had fallen indoors and was in a sorry state, badly cut hands, skin off her knees, bump on her head. We brought her in and patched her up as best we could. I phoned her daughter who lives 10 miles away. She came and took her mother to casualty. Apparently she is ok, and staying with her daughter.
Poor old lady.

Tec.

Good evening/morning all

Well what a night it is, I hope there isn't to much damage after all this wind.
Tec if Lanto has any sence he will not go out for a pee and if he doe's don't stand down wind to him lol.

Linda how are you getting on with your cupboard cleaning hun ?

Hi Amanda hope all is well with you and you are not having to much trouble with the weather as we up north are having.


Colin in answer to your question hun, yes I do look forward to my time off, wish it was more but I suppose as I'v had 2 more week's off than normal I can't complain.

Sue are you doing anything exciting today, or are you just going to spend time in the garden.

Berona how is the Vitamin D intake going, will you be taking your car for a drive today.

Hi Perse, Carole, Janet and Pam and anyone I have missed

Diane

Amanda - The Olive Sea Snake is a dangerous venomous snake from the coral reefs of northern Australia. I would be careful where you choose to paddle.

Good evening Diane , it is windy here but not as bad as you lot are getting it I think .

Persey .....well perhaps I shan't bother then after all , I'll stick with my normal dreams ....lol

Tec , I 'm glad you and the Dutchess where able to help your neighbour , poor Lady must have been in a state , I hope she heals quickly and that the shock wasn't to awful for her .

I would so love to be with all you downunder's at this moment in time, anywhere near you is better than the UK at the moment :(

Diane

Hmm sue, was it your seafaring ancestor who got drunk and drowned in the dock trying to get back on the ship??

Actually now I come to think about it wasn't it your OH's

Tec, your poor neighbour, but I am glad that you were able to help her

Tec that must have been a shock for you when you opened the door at that time of night, hope she is alright and not in to much pain after her fall, it can be the after shock of a fall at that age that can be worse than the initial fall.

Diane

Well he was one of them Linda:-)) An ancestor was coming back from some exotic place and the ship - the "Cyclops" went down and that was that. His only son was only a few months old and they had never seen each other.

Persey you are right - some of them are tall, blond and handsome;-))

S x

Sue ....that is really sad : ((

Give me a tall blonde and handsome any day, in fact just a nice homely man will do lol.

Sue that is very sad :))

Diane

There are so many sad goings on in our past generations.

My granddad never told my mum that he had a sister that died when she was five. My mother didn't believe me when I told her that I had found out about it. They kept quiet about of lot of goings on especially their war experiences.

P

I think I better go and find a top and make myself decent... just had a shower and got half dressed inbetween posts.

(*_*)

Diane - nice homely men can be a bit thin on the ground you may have to stretch your net wide... >* ))><

Perse I have never understood why people kept that kind of information quiet, it's not as if it is something to be ashamed of, not like a child out of marriage ( which was kept quite ) so as not to bring shame to the person/person's involved.

Diane

Lol Perse don't I know it, been looking for more than 30yrs.

Tec cover your eye's, are Perse is not quite decent at the moment.

Diane

Really Perse, this is a respectable thread!!!

Our eldest Diane was heading for five years old when we got married.
Not long after she went to school, we had no worry about people knowing - she told anyone who would listen that she went to our wedding. Same with the neighbours - we had hardly moved there and they all knew.

P xx

I have my eyes averted Diane, I do have a dodgy ticker after all lol.
Tec.

Persey ....it's all right for some isn't it , swanning about half dressed indeed ! I've got two pairs of woolly socks on and more than one jumper : (( lol

I'm going off to bed now , daughter has to be up early as she has the second part of her Maths exam ( re-sit ) .

Enjoy your lovely weather you day time folks and keep safe and sound to us on the windy Isle .
