Afternoon everyone, just a quick look in before I go out.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 for Jean, good luck for today.

Rita, are you chatting men up again? No man is safe where you are :-) :-)

Shelly, I recognized your hubby from photos I've seen.............. although he was slimmer in the photos. I haven't read what it said, just had time to look at the photo............ so why was he picked to be in the photo?

Marilyn, you're a bad influence on Pat............ or maybe I should say a good influence - food tastes much better with a glass of wine.

Rita......NO conniving with this New Toy Boy in the block! ;-)
You'll get this manager of yours talking about you ..LOL

I have just washed my hair and I now need to have my highlights done in urgency its not looking good....so a phone call is needed.

I had to ask my twin sister to try on my evening dress so I could take the hem up ,so difficult when its on oneself. its all done the other one was OK.
I'm trying to get together clothes for this coming holls as its a bit of everything warm & a bit chilly in the evenings on the train across USA.

Its a bit too hot here to do anything ,so I might just abandon my plans for today and just chill out ;-)

Maddie I think some postmen only lightly knock or ring as I have been in many times still had a note in my door .
The last note I had was to collect a birthday card , as I knew who it was from I didn't bother to collect it as they charge £1 40p .....it had a badge on it with a rhyme and my brother in law said I didn't realize it would cost more than 2 first class stamps !! At least he was in agreement with me to not collect it...lesson learnt .
Back later.......

Morning late coming on, I didnt bother to get out of bed till 7.30 then had a shower and had my breakfast brown bread and butter and a large peach how daft is that for a breakfast ?

Then I sorted out my pills for the week I keep then in one of those Mon to Sunday pill boxes so I dont forget to take them.

as sometimes I am that busy I did forget to take them.

stephen this fellow is a lovely man he is so polite as well, he walks with me when I meet him out and opens doors and carries shopping.
we were talking just after he moved here he said I dont drink or smoke I thought that is unusal for a man like him, he goes hiking a lot all over England and abroad. so I was mot really surprised when he said where he was going and what he was doing for three weeks.

Thought are with Jean this morning postive thought for Jean and her treatment lets hope she does not get such bad re=actions as she did last time.

Must have a cup of tea now. see you later.

Evening All I

Just in time to say 'Goodnight' !

Rita

I have known a few folk who give their time to work abroad voluntariliy. The do loads of good stuff.
My son went to Romania a few years ago to help build a Holiday Camp for deprived children. He was on Summer leave and I got him roped in with a group I was helping out. He throughly enjoyed it.

Night All !

I forgot to mention we have a man moved into our block of four flats he is in his early 60. he is 6ft .5 inches tall and such a kind gentleman he told me this afternon he will be away for three weeks he is going to Romania I said thats a strange place to go for three weeks. ?it appears he teaches Christianity out there so I suppose he must be a missionary ?and works out there helping the people, he goes every year,

makes a change to hear something like that.

Maddie I too loved her voice. It had a real soulful quality which I liked.
Another tragic loss.

Hello, hello.

It has taken me practically all day to get on to here. Somefink was up. :-P

Amy Winehouse lived about 5 minutes away from me, in a very swish Square. I must admit I cried when I heard she had died. Such a tragic waste of a young life. I have not been down to the Square to look at the flowers, there are too many people down there waiting to get onto camera. I may wander down there when it quietens down.

I have always liked her songs, she had a yearning in her voice, I have her albums and have always enjoyed them. I particularly like Love Is A Losing Game.

See boring for England again, talking about music.

Hope everyone is well and happy.

See ya.

I don't want to get Ritas hopes up. :-( Its just that while searching for some Saunders / Pikes I came across the name Absolom Lee and remembered Rita looking for one.
