I had my breakfast before I logged on Jean how silly is that ? I could have had you cook mine for me. still only had toast. I am not really inot Breakfast.
When will this weather change. just as people are going on Holiday with their children we get this type of weather . not really fair is it ?

*I dread going shopping when the children break from school. as the mothers around here stand talking and the children run riot around the counters. the times I had been pushed aside by some of them.
outside our Waitrose they have a small playground for the children it is l one slide but had other things on it as well like climbing frame.etc.

I want to watch Heir Hunters now all repeats but you always learn somethihng from that programe. on BBC1.

see you later
Rita.

I hope the weather is better for when the children finish school for the summer holidays, I always feel so sorry for them if they are kept indoors, I remember the lovely summers we had, I used to spend all the long holiday with my Grandparents and Great grandparents travelling the country side in their vardos.
Sorry, rambling on a bit there.
Hope the day goes well for you all.
Take care and stay safe.

evening all

marilyn i will not be haveing this baby in my house it will be staying in his girlfiends mums house but thay plan to get a place of there own
so ill have a spear room and litte legs has his name down for it

its earl days get as she is only about 4 weeks gone

we went by coach Pat as we are getting old and didnt want the trouble of pulling our cases along and lifting them on and off trains and buses. everything is planned you get coach trips out to visit places you would have trouble getting to see if you didnt have a car. It is just they are not oorganized for picking people up and dropping them off near their homes, they have to do a marthon ride and you go around in circles. I* think it has put alot of people off who went with us to IOW.

Rita

Rita I used to go on Wallace Arnold hoilidays as well!
The good thing about coach holidays is that eveything is included but it does involve a lot of travelling.

Yvonne when I went to Brittiany with my daughter we went on the Sheering coaches. well it was Wallace Arnold then. they collected us in a small coach and we drove to south Mims where we boarded out Coach for Brittiany but it took along time getting there as we went to Normandy first and stayed over night at a Hotel. "Novell" the next morning we drove around the countryside then went onto to St Marlo

we had a nice holiday good weather, the people who went this week are not so lucky. such a shame as you really need good weather to go there.
My next holiday(/wedding )will be in September when I am going to Christchurch in Dorset to my Granddaughters wedding. it is a big affair so I will have to buy some new clothes.
My sister booked the Hotel in January . but we are going on the Thursday before the wedding and coming back on the Tuesday. my daughter and her husband are going so we are driving down with them. but coming back by train .
I hope the weather will be good for that.

Rita

I'll have a go at running the UK Dermot, I have a few ideas to make the country a happier place.

I've just read this book called the palace of strange girls and its set in Blackpool and I think all the mill workers from the same mill are there, so I think years ago employers must have given everyone the same holiday.

Greetings one and all,
still raining here :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P
The little man loved his first day at playgroup :-D No tears or tantrums, amazing. I have to say it was a bit too quiet round here.
OH did Fajitas tonight, lovely. Now I need a large coffee to go up the tree with me, lol. Might be up there a while ;-) ;-)
Hope everyone is well and warm and Marilyn hope the wedding was great despite the weather.

Cath xx

Anyone interested in running the UK during the summer while the Government & opposition are on holiday?

Very few employers would allow all employees to be away at the same time.

Also, there are a few top-rank police vacancies to be filled.

Afternoon all

hello rita, hope the journey didn't spoil your holiday to much. My fil used to go by coach to Scotland and Eastbourne, he would get a coach to South Mimms on the M25 then everyine would then get on the correct coach to where ever they were going. Sometimes the driver would drop fil off along the way home cos the coach went right past his house.

Don't do too much Rita, sit down and rest your foot

Enjoyed the jokes Marilyn

My nephew played at a pop concert yesterday with his band in Rochester at the castle, my sister and nieces went to watch, he plays guitar and sings.

<3

afternoon everyone, I have managed to do all my washing and drying this morning, thank goodness that is out of the way.

I dont think I will go with Sheering Coaches again I went four years ago to Brittiany and the same type of thing happened then. I thougt it was a fluke but after this I know it was'nt.

I will try another coach company otherwise will do it off our own bat.

I was told by my nephew that he saw the news in USA that we had a earthquake last week on the Solent. I didnt hear anything about it.
I know we had some battle ships on the sea and a new one they have just built was just off where our Hotel was. and it said that was why these ships stayed there all day and night.

I had trouble with my BT telephone last night it is the handset which is in the bedroom. it started bleeping on and off at 5 this morning drove me mad I tried switching things on and off pulled plugs out I disconnected the phone and put it on the table in the frontroom. it stopped at 6 then I got to sleep for an hour.
I think it must have batteries in and is most likly running down. so will check this next .

I am limping about like a good one today my foot is very painful where I banged it yesterday..so I am not able to go out .
hope all are OK and having better weather than we have here.

Rita
