Pauline, Marilyn, you are right about G.Daughter. I dread what will happen when she has to cope at home, sleepless night etc, tiredness huh whats sleep when you have a new baby.
We are baby sitting little Lilly saturday night, I just hope she doesn't have one of her turns, when she decides to stop breathing, or has a touch of her acid reflux, yuk, I think i will take extra clothes with me, just in case.

Marilyn we loved it in Saltash. When we visited Roly's cousin in Liskard years ago. They used to own the the Wheatsheaf pub in Liskard.

Pauline, Marilyn must have been walking round with her eyes shut, not to have bought something is unheard of.

Maddie, I am waiting for a reply about a request for someone to come and look at my washing machine.
We took out homecare insurance for it, after we bought it, and now the door lock is a beast to lock, (well after I kick it, it works), so it looks like I may be waiting in for someone to arrive as well.
You don't mind if they say if it will be a.m or p.m, at least that way you can plan your day,and not have to stay in the whole time.

Sally, I think most of us have had the no response to e.mails re hot matches. It's flaming annoying isn't it.

Cath leave that broomstick out the back please, we don't want no cobwebs on here, it's a lovely clean thread dontcha know.

Where is Pat tonight, surely she's not working overtime.

Shelly, what you doing mate.

Stephen must be resting his poorly leg, lets hope he hasn't overdone things.

Hi there Jeniwren,Rita, Linda, Yvonne, Sue, Lady, Liz and anyone who I may have forgotten to mention.

Overtime- that's a foreign word!
Cornwall's just that little bit too far for a day trip.

Hi Pat.
Marilyn, your Pete spoils you, fancy sending him out strawberry picking at the crack of dawn, thats not nice.

PatriciaAnn

PatriciaAnn Report 10 May 2011 20:00

Surely they're not always English strawberries! They're the best.

GRMarilyn Report 10 May 2011 20:03

Maz, cousins don't live there anymore. They sold the pub and moved back up this way.
If I was ever in you area, I would definately come in for a cream tea with you.

Marilyn, grow your own, they taste better. Mind you, you can't grow them all year round.


Edit: I grow both Pat, and gooseberries, plums, cherries, apples and rhubarb. I tried to grow peaches but it's not warm enough up here.

To many pips in Raspberries Pat, I prefer Strawberries, followed by Blueberries.

PatriciaAnn Report 10 May 2011 20:15

Yep, my feelings exactly, I hardly ever eat veg. Sometimes I buy salad but it just sits in the fridge looking sorry for itself until I put it in the compost heap.

PatriciaAnn

PatriciaAnn Report 10 May 2011 20:23

I'm don't eat veggies much either Pauline but I have a multi vit and minerals tablet a day. That seems to work.

Pauline.

I got a raspberry bush last year but its dead !! Also got blackcurrant bush & rhubarb.

Just waiting for the blackcurrants they are green at present and the rhubarb I only planted this year so definitely not ready yet !! .

I hope the farmer don't put chemicals on or near my wall as I have grown them behind my wall in his field ,,, LOL. loads of room out there whenever the farmer ploughs the field I wave franticly to him and he loves it .... at least he takes his eyes off of my crops .. :D

Going to watch the Apprentice tonight ...new series 9pm.

Shelly .......are you now a NON SMOKER ?????? and Sally have you followed Shelly yet ?

Pat ...I've seen your hat that many times I would recognize you anywhere ..LOL.
So what about YOU ???????

Cath ...just loving your witch ... :D
