Gins :-D :-D :-D :-D

how lovely <3 <3

One of our neighbours has 3 sons.

Suddenly, about 15 or so years ago, the middle one left home, and then about 4 or 5 months later told his parents he wanted nothing more to do with them. Cut off contact.

He was in his mid-20s at that time.

Parents devastated, of course.

Nothing more heard form him .................. although someone did find out that he had moved down to the US.

Finally about 6 years ago, he made contact with the parents .............. he was living and working in Malibu, California.

Over a period of about two years, he would phone, then he let his Dad visit, and then he finally agreed to his Mum going down.


He moved back to Canada in the middle of last year, and has been living at home ever since.


don't think he has ever said why ............. but he had been working hard, and had a very successful small business doing car detailing and re-building

Jonesey ..... <3

Without detail....I understand Jonesey <3

Something of a surprise/shock this morning. My eldest son aged 39 turned up bearing a card and a bunch of flowers for his mother. Nothing unusual about that on Mothers day you might think but neither his mother or I knew where he has been living or had seen or heard from him for over two years.

I had heard on the grapevine that he had come back to live in this part of the world but not a word from him. It appears that he has been living about 4 miles away from us since last summer. No reason was given or asked for regarding his absence. He looked fit and well which I suppose is the important thing. He stayed for lunch and chatted as if he had never been absent and after about 4 hours he left. The question now of course is when, if ever, will we see him again?

You know what they say, "You can pick your friends but you can't pick your family."

It's good to know that you've all had a good day.

My lot went home about 3/4 hour ago and I have been tidying up ever since.... :-S

They were very thoughtful and none bought me choccies because they know I am trying to be good - so - smellies and a token for a hot stone massage....... :-D :-D



Mind you, I think I've gone deaf since they left.........so much chatter and laughter..... :-D

Linds....we always have fun with cards, in respect of MiL

Me and JB, always send the best card, with the dearest verse and then joke with BiL!


It's all in fun though :-)

Ok that flipping white stuff is back and its b****y cold.

No 1 son got me a card and a big box of chocolates.

No 2 brought the GD's, a card chocs wine and flowers

No3 got me a potted plant and the BIGGEST card I have had in over 25 years its about 2 feet high and more chocolates :-D

He said he got me the huge card so OH had to get me a big one for our Anniversary :-D

One lucky Mum :-D

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY


to all the UK'ers

There was a gang of us at the hospice today, we all ate lunch in bistro....very nice and Tammy loves Yorkshire puds

Sis went to her JW meeting at 1pm, that will do her good, getting out I mean

No1 son....mothers day gift: card, two cheese and onion rolls (because he knows I prefer them to choc) and a box of very nice, nutty chocs

...........best bit was the hug!

No2 is on his way up

Happy Mothers Day to all.

Son came round with the grandaughters. I can't believe how big the baby is getting and looks so like her Daddy it was like holding him as a baby :-D

Off to organise meal I should have thought about a takeaway too Cynthia :-(

Ha Ha. No, Moses in the bulrushes.

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

So, did you record your presentation and will we be seeing it on YouTube?

What topic did you cover?

Thank you Jonesey - your thoughts are appreciated.

I've deleted the extra posts - I had real difficulty in posting this morning - kept getting the dreaded error message. :-(


Everything went okay this morning (I hope). The place was packed!! :-0

Happy Mothering Sunday to all those who qualify.

Only 3 weeks left now until Easter.

I see Cyns is repeating herself.....again again again


We have a dusting of snow here :-|

I introduced Tammy to 'crumpets and poached eggs' yesterday, she should be having them for breakfast...do you know how hard it is to describe a crumpet to an American :-S

I think that porridge has given her the hiccups Sylvia ;-) :-D :-D

Good morning all - I seem to have slept in as I didn't wake until 8.00 :-0 - Something must be 'catching up on me' :-D

Thank you for the lovely breakfast Sylvs.................. delicious as always <3

Will be back for that gorgeous lunch later.
