God bless him and his family

'Silly Cynthia' - they are not 'cheesy sausages' - It is a 'sausage and egg bake' which has cheese in it to make it 'cheesy' :-D :-D :-D - Mind you, it IS delicious !!!

Doesn't sound like much fun in your house today - toss 'em a few sleeping pills and put your feet up for a couple of hours.

P.S. DO hope they both feel better soon though. <3 <3

Hey Cyns thats a lot of cash that you managed to raise....well done. Pop it in the post tomorrow and I'll look after it for you

Gracie.......dont go back to work too soon, for once I agree with Cyns, it can set you back and take you longer to get back to normal

The wind is trying to open my french doors on the back..... :-0

Good morning all!


Yes Dea, it's Sunday...... :-D :-D

Very blustery and wet during the night and it was lovely to be tucked up in bed.

Thank you for breakfast Sylvs - bacon, tomatoes and I am going to try those cheesy sausages.....yum.


It feels like Emergency Ward 10 here this morning. OH has only just 'come round' and daughter has a cold plus Fibromyalgia discomfort and is all doom and gloom. The pair of them were sitting in the lounge as though they were in a doctor's waiting room.....I gave up and went to peel the veg :-S


Hi Gracie, nearly missed you there.........it would be sensible to take time off to recover properly or it may take you longer to get fully fit again. Glad to hear you are feeling better though. :-D


It seems as though the November Fair I was helping at yesterday for church, raised over £3,000 - a great result in this economic climate. Mind you, it was absolutey heaving with people.


See you later...~~~~

Hi everyone!

Hope you are well.

Feeling okay today, ended up having an infection so am some antibiotics so feeling far more human today!

Back to the dr tomorrow to have the stiches out and find out when he wants me to go back to work. I'm oretty tired so hoping he will give me a couple of more days at home, I have plenty of leave up that I can take.

I noticed when I logged in today, I had lost some message from my inbox, about 15 I think which is a bit odd.

Nothing else much happening here. Cold, and very very very wet! Have the heater on today for the first time in awhile.

Syl ...... 2 words "Stanley Cup"

SylviaInCanada

SylviaInCanada Report 26 Nov 2011 22:25

I'm not kidding ............ it is absolutely pouring down!


and this is Grey Cup weekend


The Grey Cup being the cup that is the trophy for the Canadian Football league ................... some people call it American style football, with differences. But in fact the Canadian version pre-dates the American

This will be the 99th year that the Cup has been played for.

It's held in different cities every year, and this year is in Vancouver. To almost every Vancouver fan's excitement ..... the Vancouver team made it to the final.



Think FA Cup Final, but with 55,000+ seats in the stadium (sold out), and about 50,000 more people on the streets, with festivities spread over 3-4 days (Thursday through Sunday), a street parade that takes 3 hours to pass one point, pancake breakfasts in the open, and lunches.

It's one big long party!


The parade was this morning through to early afternoon ........ poor so-and-sos looked like drowned rats in a photo I saw on the internet!

The game is tomorrow afternoon ............ and I believe the opening roof of the stadium will NOT be opened!



But it's why I most definitely have not gone downtown today :-D
