Hi Kim thank you for your lovely message you do cheer me up with your positive comments. People say I have more life than them in a week.I honestly do not want it. I have a problem now ,my little cains developed razor rash on his little thingy and its swelled up and is so sore for him. Today I had to go to the vet and the consultation with the cream and tablets cost me sixty pound. Jasper bit me when applying the cream which stung my fingers and I was advised to get plastic gloves. Poor Jasper I rubbed it in on the effected area and he bit me. I now have to buy a muzzle. I phoned up the offending shop and he Lacky was so rude did not want to know. Last time my dog got kennel cough but everyone told me he could get that elsewhere. I wont be going to Lackies anymore yet on the computor the write ups are glowing. Meanwhile my little dog is in so much pain. Teddie keeps trying to pull the coller off thats my little adoped dog and sits on top of Jasper guarding him. The poor dog Jasper cannot get on the chair to rest or wee or eat with that coller round him. He must not lick the effected area. When the coller comes off he is straight down below licking. More problems.

Glad you liked the photo Kim those were my gay days .I was mad on feathers and big buttons and I made the coat I was wearing now I cannot make anything. My friend was later married to a American called Larry Hagman would yuou believe it as in Dallas. They had eight kids and now live in New Zealand. She visited me in 2001 with her grandaughter Becky.

Kim I am so sorry you have not been well .What is the trouble is it serious and how do you cope. I know your illness. How are your son and daughter and your husband and life in aussie land .
Was watching Ladette to Lady yesterday there was a Australian girl riding a horse shouting tallyho in a skirt showing her thighs and the posh lady in charge said your disgusting go to your room and stay there and I will see
you later and she lifted up her skirt and said knickers I nearly choked on my cup of tea. It was so funny. Its amazing though how they turn out.
My jumper was not right on me so I was pleased to give it Beryl she is so down .Amanda I do not know if Donnie will come back. Beryl did not deserve him she would try and make the poor man feel small. Donnie was weird but had a kind side.Guess he just got fed up of her mind you
it did not take him long to get that awful women.
Frank hope you are finding some calm. People are so rude and unkind at times I said to my neighbour today the postman left a parcel here for you
and she said yes I have it your husband gave it me. Any problem I said no
why should there be was just telling you the parcel was delivered here and she said well consult with your husband next time. I said there wont be a next time If I have my way. Stupid women whats a big deal not knowing my husband had passed on her parcel. Wait until she wants to borrow our electric mower or needs a baby sitter know how you feel.

I had a lovely letter from my adopted aunts family after her funeral and they found my glasses.

Jane see you fell over the dog. I am ok now had not been drinking but could have done with a stiff whisky. Sophie called me and made me laugh she said I make sixty little cakies for the boy scooters and browning girls. I said you mean brownies and and scouts she said I said that. I said I fell over the dog and she said oh poor doggie was he hurt .I said no I was and she said Oh your big enough to look after yourself.

The leaves are looking pretty on the trees at the back all red and yellow and nice on the lawn also dozens of them. Who invented leaves do you think theres millions of the things. trees should come with built in vacumn cleaners. can never spell that word.

Well will go now I am expecting a call from April they are going to live at Long Island in a rented house furnished very posh I am told. Ryan is staying in the Manhatton area in an apartment for a while and coming home week ends. I see them going in my dreams theres me waving goodbye and I wake up with a jump. Will miss Aprils calls on the phone
they were surposed to have stopped but still get a lot.

All cool and calm and collected now then Frank ;-).Jolly Good !
I have just put a few bits on the line ,things that can't go in the drier .They are blowing lovely in this wind.
I am just off to the VET with you know who.He has a nasty looking growthy thing that I want to get checked out.It is giving everyone the creeps :-S :-S

Ann that's a good job you found those photos.Must have saved you a fair bit of pondering lol
Must fly !

Mel, I have found what I think you need, I have Emailed it to you. Let me know if it's the right one.

Have taken my anger out of having a clear out of some of the Garage. I have moved no end of stuff down the sheds, and half filled the dustbin. Have come in to give my back a rest. All this bending ,!!!!

Have put the washing out again, bit of sunshine and a good breeze. Shouldn't take long to dry.

Have done the dinner for tonight, so I can sit and relax for a few hours.

Afternoon All,

I have been busy sorting those rocks back where they go this morning. I remembered I had taken photos and managed to find 2 that were of the missing bits so were a great help. I still needed to adjust some of the others as all the trench digging had dislodged some. Now it looks something like again down one edge. Will tackle the other side tomorrow.. Did some tidying around too while OH took the runner beans down. Then I did a bit of food shopping as OH fancies bacon and egg butties!!

Hope you got on ok Kim and are not too exhausted by it all.

Mel, it is a pity you couldn't make that stump into a feature!!


Frank, deep breaths!!!! We couldn't put the wooden pallets in our skip as the paver said the skip people wouldn't accept wood mixed with the rubble, sand and old slabs!!!

Keep your cool Frank. You know what happens when you get worked up. Just think nice thoughts and reminis (sp) of good times gone by...........

I am getting frustrated trying to buy a USB cable for my old fuji finepix a 310 camera. OH is busy with the pond clearing all the leaves out and washing the filter through so has'nt the time to do it at the mo. He did register me with ebay but it is all gobble de gook to me!! Now I have more passwords and things to remember. I would'nt mind but the blimmin thing is only a few quid.

HELP please!!

:-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

FRANK KEEP CALM.Go and walk round the block (or stomp around it).
Maybe when your neighbour has finished putting what he wants in his skip there will be room for your logs.
Good that Ros is feeling a little better today.

I am definitely off to that bank now

Morning all,
Damp drizzle in the air, and the breeze is getting up.

We put a line of washing out earlier, have had to get it in.

Just biting a nail in half !!! Mr Clumsy, with the skip. I saw him in the garden this morning, and ask if I could put the branches on top of the skip. "I DON'T THINK THERE IS ROOM" The bloddy thing is filled with empty box's, which I offered to break down, to make more room. He said "well I have other stuff I want to put in it" I said DON'T BOTHER... All the things I have done for him over the years, He can now get what the TURKEY gets at Christmas. !!!

I will sham him, by getting the wheelbarrow out and cut up the branches and walk them to the tip. When I think he was one of the neighbours who complained about the size of the tree. I should have left it as it was, and said "TOUGH"

Ros is a bit better this morning, I didn't know that she changed her "PATCH" on Saturday, and that could have bought on the sickness bout. Will get another appointment with the Doctor, as they don't seem to be doing any good.

I must get out of the house, I am building up a high pressure, and the valve is likely to blow :-| :-| :-| :-|

Good luck Kim :-D <3 :-D

Morning Everyone.
I think it was sixpence for me to from the tooth fairy.I think it may have gone to a shilling.

Just a cloudy morning here and it looks like the breeze could be picking up a bit.

I hope all is well Kim after your procedures today <3 and that you are home and not too uncomfortable.
Mel is this the old stump that is finally out?
Hannah wasn't here long Mel .She arrived about 2.30,went out at 7pm came home at 3am,got up at 10am,left at 4pm lol.It was a big get together with all the girls.I am just happy she is happy in London.She loves it.

I need to get off to the bank now to get more £ coins for Chris to park the car this week .This is day 3 of the case .I think the Judge is summing up today.

BBL

Morning Mel

Very wet and windy day here, glad I have not got to go out for anything.

Daughter no 1 might pop down to collect Sofia's pink buggy, I keep it at my house as It's much lighter for me to push than the red one that they have.
But today SIL gone to work in daughters car as SIL car needs to go into the garage to be fixed and daughter has to drop it off , but he forgot to take Sofia's buggy out of the car before he went to work, so daughter needs a buggy to walk home, to far for Sofia to walk and anyway she is still tired with the croup, doctor said it could take up to a week before she's back to normal.

Morning All,

Well oh got the tree stump out yesterday but it is so big he can't move it much with our little digger. He has rolled it along a bit and has filled in the hole it came out of. It looks so different round the side of the bungalow now.

Dry again this morning but with a breeze and grey skies at present.

Ann what a nuisance that that man did'nt put the stones in the right order after all your hard back breaking work to get them right!! You should have mentioned it to him.

Yes back in my time the tooth fairy left me sixpence. I think my son had a shilling.

We are still getting dragon flies round the pond and they keep getting stuck in the netting oh had put round to stop the heron landing. The times I have had to release them!!

Tiny fish are growing in the tank in the lounge. I did'nt think they would grow much after being in a bigger place but they are doing really well. I have four shubunkins which are coloured already. Dear little souls.

Jane you will be sorry to see your little girl go off on her own again. It must have been so nice to see her over the weekend.

Anne sorry to hear your neck is playing up. It must be all that painting of stage stuff you have been doing.

OH gone to Holsworthy so I better get the dustbins out as he rang me and said he may not be back in time!!

You are very welcome, Frank. I'm sure it will be interesting! Yes, we don't do bad at eating out lately, but Sundays we usually just go to Mor*isons and I have a vegetable lunch there......even then I have extra veg instead of the potatoes!! lol. Mind you, we'll be breakfasting at a local hotel 1 day next week as we got a half price voucher.......2 brekkies for £8. The full works, juices, yoghurts, fresh fruit, cereals, croissants, the full english with as much as you want, tea, coffee, toast. We won't want anything else that day!! :-D :-D

It's me,

Blood# X FACTOR on again tonight.

Ros got up at about 5 pm. Yes she would like to try a bit of dinner, but not to much. :-| :-| :-| I put the meat in, after an hour put the roasts in, and yorkshire pudding. Most of the veg was done in the Microwave, betteri taste and more flavour. We had dinner about 7 pm. She didn't eat as much as I thought she would, but at least it wasn't wasted. Dishwasher on now, will empty that later.

I think Lewis's going rate for the tooth fairy is £2/3.00. I never got a brass halfpenny when I was a boy. ah I hear you say. lol lol

Ann, you have been a busy little bee again. And eating out AGAIN. you don't do bad, do you ???? lol lol I would think, word of mouth, will see those pallets go to a good use. I got some when I moved in here, and put them on the floor of the garage, where I have some tea chests full of china/glass from Ros'a Mum and Dad keeps the damp away from them. You could put a little card in the local shop, free Pallets.

Trust you sent Hannah home with a "TUCK BOX" Jane. You know how the kids don't feed themselves properly when they are away from home.
Your fire was mentioned in our local paper on Sat. getting quite famous around your way.

Thanks again to Mel and Ann for the help with the marriage certificate, what would I do without you.

My next door neighbour (CLUMSY) is having a new kitchen fitted and has a skip on his drive, will have to see if I can put all the branches in it. Will save me a lot of trips with the wheelbarrow.

Kitchen no where near completed.
Joiner didn't start until Thursday mid morning unlike the Monday morning planned.
Once started he has worked well but the job is only (I estimate) half completed.
Will look grand when it's finished.
Also have a roofer comming to do pointing on the ridge tiles and to pin 25 slates.

My VW Passat is loathe to start and sluggish until warmed up in the mornings now,unlike me.
Thinking of changing it rather than an expensive service.

I used to get sixpence from the tooth fairy in the 50s. I just checked what that would be equivalent to nowadays......53p.

Hi Everyone,

Another nice day here too. This morning I did a big chicken casserole to hot up tomorrow and half to freeze as well. Used our own carrots and potatoes. OH was doing his meeting notes ........reluctantly! :-S Then we went out for lunch and called to see MIL and FIL. MIL said she will sort me out some of her beads and buttons she no longer wants.... for my class. :-D :-D They want us to pick up another 4 bags of gravel for their garden next time we come as we pass the place that sells what they want. MIL's biopsy results show nothing untoward thank goodness and she has to make an appointment to see her GP and take another 'sample'.

When we got home I re-potted my 4 geraniums and put them in the greenhouse.....lovely and warm in there. I had to move my little peanut plant as something has been nibbling it. :-S Also a hole has appeared under the side of the path in there so I think 'someone' is getting a home for the winter ready. Picked a load more toms.

Tomorrow there is a lot to do outside!! Pallets for OH to break up and take to the tip.......wish I knew someone nearby with an open fire. I may have to adjust some of my rocks yet again as I think they need raising as the new patio is higher. Also the electrician pulled quite a few out when he was digging up those old walls and putting his cables in. Trouble is he didn't place them in a row in the order I had them in to fit together, so it will take me a while to sort them out now!

I hope Ros is feeling a bit better again Frank. It is a shame she can't enjoy your tasty dinners.

Looking forward to Downton tonight and the Stephen Fry programme on at the same time which we record. Better go and get some salad for tea now.....feeling peckish!

Still a lovely afternoon here.I am in short sleeves too Mandy.
Had a lovey Roast Dinner,and am stuffed to the gills now.Hannah and her friend have just gone back to London.
I gave Hannah a frisk lol just to see what she was going off with without me knowing.She has her Red Cross Food Parcel ,including carrots and onions from the garden.

Anne,touch wood we have had no smoke over us today.It is going in the opposite direction.But it is still billowing. :-S :-S,and will be doing that for some days to come I think.It is a fair way from being put out.

It looks like it is clouding up now,but how nice it has been to be able to sit out at this time of the year.
We are thinking about putting the heating on in the next day or so.We need it warm for Ethan who is used to Dubai temps !!!!.I will no doubt be sweating cobs lol
Frank you could always give your neighbour more tomatoes!!!!!!!.That is good of him to do a bit more on the big tree.He is probably having the heebie jeebies at the thought of you up that ladder :-D :-D
