General Chat

Afternoon everyone,

Jane , i must admit i tittered too LOL
i had a Bra like that, it sort of ....well.....pointed the way shall i say :-D

I bought some new Knickers from Tesc*'s yesterday ,they are those ones that look like men's boxer shorts , they are called seam free shorts soft touch , they are so comfortable , i thought they would be a bit clingy and make me hot but no they are the best i've worn for ages ,so i've been out today and got some more £4 for 2 pairs .

Rainy here today and not very warm .

Oh Fiona, poor little Sofia ,what a shame she was so frightened , at least she got to play the games and have her picnic before Micky frightened her.

Ann, good job you got in to the doctors , it must be a bad bite if you need the antibiotics !! hope they do the trick for you.
Have posted Jane's book to you this morning ,good read .

Afternoon all, Im late today.!!!

Walked up the doctors for a sample bottle, then continued up the road, and down onto the canal for a walk. Had my camera a took a few pics. Will put them on later. Meet a few pweople on my travels and chatted. Only got home half hour ago. KNACKERED!!!!! straight i8nto my shorts, Sitting here with all doors and windows open.

Ros is feeling a bit better this morning, I think she has had a virious or tummy bug. Through me not eating as usual, I have gone from 13stone 7lbs Down to 12stone 11lbs. So will continue to try to get to 12 1/2 stone. Which it what the doctor said I should be.

Hope you are all doing well, and Jane watch you don't poke someones EYE out

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Afternoon All

Weather lovely today, Daughter no 1 dropped me at home 10 mins ago . Sofia was asleep in her car seat, she has had a busy morning.
we were inside a community Hall for the Teddy Bears Picnic. it was very warm. We played games and sang songs, sat on a picnic blanket and had our snack then Mickey Mouse came( one of the organisers dressed up) Sofia was terrified and clung to her mum they also had a bubble machine on but Sofia would not even come down off her mums knee to play with the bubbles incase Mickey Mouse came near her.
She was happy to wave him goodbye. even then was nervous in case he came back through the door lol :-)


Well I think it's time for some lunch, I don't know what we are doing this afternoon, OH had a meeting at the bank this morning and he is not back yet , something to do with his Pensions, he will be 55 next year, so he is making sure his pensions are in the right place, he would love to retire early, but not sure yet what plans he will sort out

going to get some lunch and sit in the sun
BBL

Jane you and your bra made me titter!!! (titter...... lol, oh sorry). I was in a shop a couple of weeks ago and 2 ladies were worried about their senior school age daughters' bras. Apparently they were hoisting things ever higher while their necklines were plunging ever lower!! One woman said her daughter was nearly able to rest her chin on them!! lol They were both worried that their daughters had male teachers and that they did not realise it wasn't fair to be falling out of their clothes. I bet 'Sadie' would have sorted them out.

Vincent and Flavia were superb! The show was being filmed at their Bristol performance and then beamed live by satellite to over a hundred cinemas. I think it was better than being there as you were close enough to see all the detail on the dresses (and beads of sweat.......!!) It was set in a Buenos Aires bar and had a bit of comedy in it too. The dancing was breathtaking and all of it was fastpaced Argentine Tango with dresses slit all over the place but high to the waist. The men wore slicked back hair and baggy trousered suits, tight around the BTM, with braces,trilby hats and two tone shoes. I love the music too. OH wasn't sure he'd like it, but couldn't stop saying how good and uplifting it was. He was still talking about it today.

This morning I took my car in for the new wing mirror to be fixed. I arrived in the carpark there at 8.00am and on a strip of grass in front of where I parked a young fox was sunning himself. I took a pic which I will try and send later.

I had a poor night's sleep with my bite, itching like mad but I managed to not scratch it at all, kept dangling the leg out of the bed to try and cool it. This morning it looked as if a big area around it was going pink and the red part was getting blistery and no smaller. I decided to call in the chemist and see what they thought and they said to see a doctor with it as it wasn't responding at all to the anti histamines I was still taking. Got in with a 5 minute emergency appointment and the doctor took one look and said it was infected. Now I have 5 days antibiotics to take as well as the anti histamines. I know these will upset my tum for the first 2-3 days.......something to look forward too!!

Jane I could use one of those, lol. What brand is it????? :-D :-D

Morning Just!!

Have'nt caught up with all your posts yet.

Was busy in the garden yesterday and tired at night!

I had one of those blister bites and the docs said there were a few of them about at the time.

I too thought they were real monkey's at first and had to read further before I realized.

Sun is shining and the garden is calling. Oh is getting bricks from over the secret garden for up the edge of the driveway.

Morning Kim and all

I hope Fiona is enjoying the Teddy Bears Picnic with Sofia and that the weather is kind.

Kim I have worn the Bra.It does fit,but makes me look huge.Actually no-one commented so maybe it is just me .It is a completely different type to the ones I normally wear.I will try it with different styled tops and see what looks better.
I am off to pick up another one today.I am having trouble finding one that doesn't show in my wedding outfit. :-(
This afternoon it is the hairdressers for a root job and cut.

I bet Ann had a great time last night at the show.
Chris has just come back from Waitr*** with bags of food ,so I better go and supervise and see what goodies he has got.I did spy a lovely big joint of Beef. :-D :-D

Hello all,

Girls I was being polite (monkeys). We had 4 rotten little sods riding their scooters around the street and stealing mail, lol. They took off very suddenly and haven't seen them back today. They might be up from Sydney staying with grandparents or the like. The neighbour was very upset that they had been all over her property while she was away.

Mel and Frank thanks for the advice on those handwarmers. Keith has checked on the net, not much available in Aus. Saw something that was battery operated; most things were listed for England and Europe. I could wear snow gloves - they might do the trick.

Mandy your poor sister-in-law!!!! I have never heard of an operation like that and it still didn't bring her relief. What a thing to go through :-0 :-0 I know when I was younger and worked in a very cold, stone building that I had a lot of trouble typing. I was about 17 and noticed that I had no colour in my fingers in winter - just thought it was me!!! They had to get me a heater that went all day because I couldn't get warm.

Pat you must be up and around by now. Hope they get all your units installed today.

Jane I loved Hattie Jacques and her big boobs. The Carry On movies were wonderful. Can you take if back and say it doesn't fit properly?? They probably won't accept returned underwear - are the labels still on it?

Shirl good to hear from you, hope you haven't hit a whale at sea. You have been busy!!! How was the trip to Toronto??? Hope your son is doing a little better.

Sheila, so funny they exploded in the microwave - would like to have been a bug on the wall to see that :-D :-D My kids are always doing that with food, never covering anything and pasta and sauces going everywhere. OH is always cleaning our oven :-( :-( Have a good day on Friday.

Fiona enjoy the Teddy Bears Picnic - hope the weather stays good for you.

Frank good to hear that Ros was able to eat her meal yesterday. Things might be improving - fingers crossed.

Hello to anyone I might not have mentioned. It has been sunny and a little warmer here today. I got some washing done whilst OH cleared out the gutters. We had a chat to Glenda over the fence, but she got very teary and took off inside - the police chaplain had been to check on her and stirred things up a bit. We are all having our off days and missing Rod so much. Fortunately, Glenda and her daughter Kim are going to spend a couple of weeks in the US with her sister, leaving on 8/8. A change might be very good for her at this point, so many memories and reminders everywhere at home. Rod would want her to go, as they had a trip planned for August, before he got ill.

Off to watch the news. Take care and have a good day. 5.39 pm EST

just popped into say goodnight to you all

BB tomorrow afternoon

night night :-D :-D

Sounds exciting David, it's all go at the bungalow. will be lovely to move in with everything new.
Once you have settled in then you will have time to get lots of idea's for decorating the rooms
Have you met your new neighbours yet, I hope they make you feel welcome.
Sun still shining here and it's going to be a warm & sticky night I think.

The sink was installed in the kitchen plus the plumbing for the washer dryer and the dish washer,due next Tuesaday.

Also the fire was installed in the living room with the surround.
They are comming back tomorrow morning to finish it off.

The carpet gets laid next Wednesday and we move in on the Thursday.

The decorating is going to have to keep.

Evening all
Been a lovely day here, went for coffee with friends this morning , then OH picked me up and we went for a ride out to Sterling, they have a huge furniture warehouse there, also pet store and coffee house. OH wanted to look in the pet store for fish, and I walked round looking at all the lovely dinning suites, livingroom furniture, and bedroom furniture, we then drove home in time for daughter no 1 and Sofia to arrive, daughter no 1 off to work and we spent the afternoon playing in the back garden.

Tomorrow I am going to a Teddy Bears Picnic with Sofia and her mum. we need to take a snack and a blanket to sit on and of course a teddy. Mickey Mouse is suppose to be there aswell at this picnic, I have a funny feeling there will be lots of scared and crying toddlers , not very happy at seeing a life size Mickey Mouse. maybe a few Mums & grans aswell lol :-D

Kim I hope you warm up soon. I had some handwarmers you put them in the microwave but I forgot mine and they exploded did I get a telling off from my ho.

Mel a pheasant called Phil how lovely I thought Phil was a boyfriend at first
my eyes are not so good very sore at the moment.

Jane you made me laugh about your Bra you could be Sophia she made me laugh she was put a notice in her window which I think tickled everybody round about. Lady gotta many cakies for sale come and look
not touch knocker the door please .out all day.

My hubby said she will throw them at someone if she does not like them
he went round to offer to make her a table for her new radio and she nearly
hit him on the head she kept talking and he could not tell her what he was going to do.In the end she said just make the table and shut up and he never went back. Jane you are right about Mohsen

Coughton hall did I get the spelling wrong was there not a ghost Ann or was I thinking of somewhere else. VINEGAR is supposed to be good for bites always works for me.stings a bit. hope you have a nice time.
David seems happy in his lovely bungalow .
Pat glad your getting straight a bit now. i could not post a photo am I thick or something dont answer that .It said my image was invalid. or was it invalided that would be better.

Beryl looks like a paratrooper Shirl I think she is crazy she had that taken at a studio and now her hair is a reddish colour and she had a scarve tied round her head when she called in for the steak I got it a bit earlier Friday I am out all day. I am going to drive to stratford upon avon to see Annie shes doing some bedding of flowers and I said I would help for a ride in her neighbours cart pulled by a nice smallish brown horse called Puck. but not driving it it was disaster last time. oh I hate Ironing.Jane
I run to the shop and have burnt so many iron covers plonking the iron down on the top instead of the metal bit.

Right Frank I know where to send any trousers for shortening in the future lol
Sounds like Ros had a bit of a feast today.Her appetite must be getting back to normal.That must be a relief :-D
Just off to dish up din dins .I am blooming starving.

Evening all,

When Ros came back this morning/lunchtime. She decided to take me to the Garden centre, where she is a member of the gardening club. They have an offer for members, All flower and vegeatable seeds are HALF PRICE. I bought loads of different seeds fot my "allotment" down the garden.
We then looked in at the two for a tenner pub. She fancied a 5 oz rump steak, with pepper sauce, mushrooms,tomato, peas, amd chips. She ate quite a bit of that and seemed to enjoy it. I had Fish and Chips. and a pint. No cooking tonight. I have thrown all the veg away from yesterday.

Pat, Just think, with a bit of luck you could be straight by next week.

Glad James's suit and shoes fitted. Ros takes up my trousers,if they need doing.!!!!!

Nice to see you about, our Shirl. The sun shine on the righteous, so they say :-D :-D :-D :-D

Annx, you do get about, don'y you. Where do you find the enegy. ????

Early night for you then Pat lol
At least it is light at 7.It would be horrible having the workmen arriving at that time in the dark .It would be like the middle of the night. :-S

Yes more trouser shortening .Hopefully this is the last pair for a very long time.The cost doesn't seem so bad for the suit trousers(it is a bl***y expensive suit)even thought it was nearly half price in the sale.

Shirl what was the CRASH?Nothing major I hope :-S :-S :-S

We have had a few mishaps here..a damaged door front and the wrong estracter unit were sent out to us..So they had to be replaced...Part of the flooring has been put down before the units can be finished..Hopefully all by tomorrow..The plumber is back in on friday..with the tiler...Then the decorators another day.. so hopefully we can use the sink and cooker then.

I have them back tomorrow at 7 :-(

catch you later

You have been busy today Frank.. Just bring a bottle to my house warming Lol ;-)

Ann a friend of mine had a nasty bite from something and her arm swelled up as well.

More trouser shortening then Jane..

Ann...Midnight Tango with Flavia and Vincent from Strictly sounds good..I used to like watching Strictly.. My units are light oak so am having to decide what colour walls to have..The work top is the colour of slate and I am having greyish brick like tiles. Looking at the units now,,I couldnt have afforded to have all this work done..We are paying for a few extras.


Kim .....I was on here early this morning and thought I was the only one to read your post twice because Monkeys were mentioned

Ann I bet you will really enjoy the show.I don't think I would be able to get Chris to see that one.Definitely not his cup of tea.

I bought a new bra ,a type I never had before.I turned sideways and looked in the mirror after I got dressed and thought I looked like Hattie Jaques :-( :-(.
It seemed as though my boobs were nearly as high as my neck and way out front!!!.Not the look I was hoping for :-S :-S
For the first time in weeks there is no Laundry basket sitting in the lounge.That will last as long as tomorrow as I have one more load of ironing(still in the machine)
Not one bit of sun today,and I think we may have rain forecast
