Hi Sylvia,

It is a shame air travel is still so expensive..well it still is here and it doesn't sound cheap from your end either. I know when my brother died overseas and the children had to get to him quickly before the life support was turned off, the airline knew they were desperate and charged them $5.000 each to travel. luckily their grandparents paid and managed to recoup some of the money back after contacting the airline and making a complaint.

Was your OH cousin in pain or anything like that to make her pass so quickly?

Hi Grace

Hope all is well today?



No ....... I'm not going back. He's only going to go for 7 days, and that quite honestly is too short a period for me to be able to recover from what I know is an uncomfortable flight .......... and we can't afford business class for such a short trip.

Even travelling economy will cost him over $2,000 for a 7 day return trip (or around £1,000)



We had been hoping that Maggie would hang in there for several months, but the end has come very quickly, in less than a week.

We were only talking over the Christmas break about possibly going to England in either June or September for 3 or 4 weeks ................. seeing her, and other friends, plus parts that we have never seen. Also, my childhood friend has moved back from Australia (near Mudgee) to live with her sister in Ireland.

B is also in bad straits ....... she has Parkinsons, but has also been bed-ridden for several months for some reason (she hasn't said what) ............. and we would take the opportunity to go over and see her. We last saw B in Mudgee in 2006.

I'm just having a chuckle at Dea being changed into Hitler - I don't think the moustache will suit you.

and Cyns post at 21:26 was #33,200

:-D :-D

Morning everyone, hope you are all well.

Sorry to hear your news Sylvia. Will you go back with OH when he travels?

Just heard

OH's cousin died a short time ago.

OH will be going back ............. but we have to wait until, possibly tomorrow, to find out what arrangements have been made ..... ie, when the service or memorial will be held.


RIP Maggie
xxxx

Oh yes, and the similarity in looks between Queen Mary, our Queen and Princess Anne is outstanding. Very strong genetics in that family.

I have been out in that awful weather..........ughhhhh. Get home and find my daughter has left her keys in the back of my car and she has gone to a meeting. Get back in car and take keys to her................grrrrrrrrrrrrr
and brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


Quite a to do going on over the RRing isn't there? Hope it all gets sorted soon.


Super programme on last night and tonight about Queen Mary. Even though I am a Royalist - I've learnt a lot. Smashing old films too. Those bustles and long skirts.....haven't spotted our Sylvs yet though :-D

Back again


for a little while


have some bank paperwork to sort out .............. I say I have more money in the account than the bank does


................... ooops


at least, both of us say the account is still in the black, so not dire!

Re Stephen Lawrence

My oldest daughter started at the same school as him but 2 years younger. Her original school had closed.
He had made a point of asking how she was getting on just a few days before he was killed.

Have 'you and yours' stopped coughing yet Ginns ?????

Dea Xxx

I too was thinking 'Stallin' but went on google and it changed me to Hitler ??

Goeuring and Himmler were there somewhere too ?????

Dea Xxx

Wasn't it Hitler that only one Ginns ???

Dea Xxx

Think of Stalin and Syberia...that had Gulags Dea

I has a spare room which you are always VERY welcome to Ginns BUT, I don't think it is any warmer than there !!!

Dea Xxx

P.S. - "Gulags" - Is that what they hang 'em up by then ??

OR is that something to do with an 'archipelligo' ??? (spelling???)

Dea Xxx

Careful or we'll all end up in the gulags :-0

Lovey gale force winds and driving rain tonight..........anyone got a spare room, somewhere a bit warmer than here :-(
