LG


it is getting down close to freezing overnight.


I think the weather has gone completely cock-eyed this year :-D



sleep well.



and



keep warm!

OH has to go and have a colonoscopy tomorrow



and I am the "responsible person" designated to bring him home




by cab :-D


(I have never driven)

I could not be without my little car. Being disabled I cannot walk very far and if I do it takes me ages. Good wishes to OH, not a very pleasant procedure

Thanks


it is 6 years, last December, since he had a colon re-section because of cancer

.......... he had follow-up checks, in December 2006 and 2007, then they said they didn't want to see him until December 2011


This is that appointment



so hoping no more polyps to be found ....... and that any found are non-cancerous.



I can't walk far either (I have a deteriorating spine) ....... but we do have a very good bus service here. Plus OH is driving me around more now that he is retired (or supposed to be retired :-D )

We have a reasonable bus service but I find it difficult getting on and off due to having osteo arthritus in both knees,poor old soul :-D

Hope all goes well tomorrow Sylvia, and that he enjoys the luxury of being driven for a change :-)

LG - we keep telling you about kneeling buses; you really out to check if they are on your routes.
Where we live, the buses are once an hour into the nearest town, and once an hour to the large out of town shopping centre, then massive gaps at the end of the school day where they jiggle to fit in with pick-ups. The timetable published on the internet has no resemblance to what actually occurs, and they wonder why only the elderly, non drivers or youngsters use them??

On that note, as OH has cleared the bathroom, I'm off to bed.

Night night.

Kneeling buses, no such thing here our buses are made the same time as the Ark. Nite nite we are off now to so catch you tomorrow <3

all our buses are kneeling buses


there are still some old-style, non-kneelers kept in running order in case they are needed ....... but we rarely see them.



It's OA in the spine which has caused my problems.



sleep tight, everyone

Morning all
all our buses are supposed to be kneeling buses allowing disabled access and to be fair most of them are .Even A,s coaches kneel or are able to meet the raised bus stops to allow disabilty access , Being disabled too i struggle on the coaches they are like climbing mountains
Our bus service in Co Durham is very intermittent .where Pauline lives its much more coordinated than ours .but its still not bad
it is minus 12 here at the moment i am off today so its chores and more chores A is working tonight so got all day but am on an early tomorrow

Morning all, sitting here clearing my admin yet again !!!! :-|. Then a pile of ironing which would put Everest to shame

Mine is one of the Foot Hills, but still lurking where it was left. At least it has brought down from upstairs to where I'll see it.
There is also a hem to mend and trousers to turn up, but there is always something more interesting to do!

As our glasses are supposed to be ready today, a trip to the Centre and coffee is on the cards at some point.

Morning DET. I am off round Yidarmylass's in a moment to have my well earned coffee break and prep up for tonights Brownies.

Ironing can wait for a little while longer :-D

Not a bad idea! Sometimes, getting the ironing board out works for me. The whole pile doesn't neccessarily get done in one hit, but gets done more quickly as I get fed up with the board cluttering the place up - lol

lol I was still in my nightie the Community police phoned to pay me a visit its amazing what you can get done in ten minutes lol

What a shock to the system -hope you had time to wake up properly. shift work really messes up your body clock, or so PC says!

Unless I have to go out, I get mesmorised on the computer until OH surfaces, and THEN get washed and dressed! The later he gets up, the longer I'm in my dressing gown ( embarrased emoticon!!!! ) He's only just got up so........~~~~~~~

afternoon I am awake lol but i am enjoying the chill out time here juts popped out to do some errands and now back its bitterly cold out so its nice to relax

I'm chillin to Maz before heading off to Brownies

Evening all!!

Pleased you had a nice day off Maz. What's this with all the uniforms?? I'm getting quite jealous!!

DET!!! Still in pjs at 12.00!! I had done four hours work then!! What it must be like to be semi-retired!! :-D

Sylvia, I hope everything went well for yor OH. As LG said, not a particularly pleasant experience, but I'm sure he allowed you to chaffeur him home in style!!

LG, you made a right bloomin' racket last night!! I needed six pairs of ear plugs and my head under the pillows to stop that horrible howling noise invading my ear drums!! :-P

Morning all. Well I can match the weather this morning. It is about 4.30 am and quite chilly. Hopefully the wind stays away so OH and the mob can have their fishing day without chucking up over the side. I have a few bits of unmentionable to do before work work today. And I get to walk Spot the fabulous sabre tooth tiger. I don't know what he is planning but I know he is not happy at being left behind. Expecting to see something belonging to OH being given the doggy chew before the day is out.

Loved the flooded road story Sylvia. Sounds a very typical Australian response to a problem. It's OK mate, she'll be right.There is a video somewhere of a four wheel drive attempting a flooded road crossing. Might see if I can dig it up.

well the tyneside derby is about to begin shortly lol so i will have to part with a tv lol and the pc too well you have to stay in touch wiv your mates with the match lol
