Morning everyone, good news about your scan Jean and good luck Rita.
After a hot and sticky night, the worst has happened, I have woken up to no water, Anglian water say they cannot find the cause yet, I hope they soon do.

Morning all,
Jean brilliant to have you back and glad the scan was good. We all missed you sooooooo much. Fingers crossed for Rita now on Wednesday.
Marilyn I have a great MIL too and like you with yours have never had a cross word. I am very lucky.
Linda fantastic news, hope all goes well for your daughter. Being a grandparent is just the best. :-D :-D :-D. Thanks for the email, made me laugh out loud.
Mo maybe you do have hay fever, I had never suffered with it until a couple of years ago.
Hope everyone is well and enjoys their day. I'm not working today but might pop to the car wash ;-) ;-) ;-)

Morning all
Well it's very wet here so no washing yet. Might spin it round if it looks like dry up a bit later.
Have to go to town this morning before hubby goes back to work.
The news was good last night but very early. Our eldest daughter is expecting, our first grandchild but not until next February. So have to keep Mum for a while and hope that all goes well for her!!!
Good to see you back Jean hope you are OK
Enjoy today everyone

Linda :-) <3

Morning friends, thank you for your kind thoughts and messages of support, they got me through a difficult time, and were very much appreciated.
Rita I hope your scan goes well and you get good results.
After 2 very hot days it is cooler this morning thank goodness, I love the sun but the heat yesterday was too much for me, although it was quite cool in Christies.
Breakfast,
Cereal or fruit.
Hot rolls, toast or waffles.
Bacon. eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, sausage, all on hotplate.
Tea, coffee or juice.

Am taking Scarlett out later to see the horses and then to feed the ducks, just a nice relaxing day.
Hope you all have a peaceful day,
Take care and stay safe.
Thank you again for your kind messages,
My love to you all.
Jean xxxx
:-D :-D :-D :-D

Hi all, just popping in before I have my bath.

Great news about Jean........ hope we also get good news about Rita as well.

Linda, I'm curious about why your daughter wants you all there tonight........... I'm so nebby.

Marilyn is busy finding things out for me that I couldn't find myself................ and she's doing a very good job of it. Thank you Marilyn.

Dermot, some young people are very good writers and excellent at spelling and punctuation. Much better than I ever was.

Rita, what we want now, is a good outcome from you on Wednesday. So fingers, toes, legs,arms eyes all crossed for you.

Linda, great to see you back, and that you had a good time, apart from the weather that is.
Uhhhmmm I wonder what your daughter needs to tell the whole family together. Lets hope it is really good news for you all.

Going to get a nice cool bath now, as I am going out with a friend of mine this evening.

Rita Report 27 Jun 2011 17:37

That is great new about Jean scan. lets hope thje good news continues.

Linda glad you had a good time shame about your weather still you did get a break.
Dermot that was lovely about the Dog having kittens

That maybe true about the young people of today Dermot but they still need jobs.you can be brilliant at a subject but it does not help without money and work.

The idea of the People having to work longer is such a silly idea. if they left earlier the young people would get their jobs. the social money would then go to make up the peoples pensions.
while those young people can work and would not need social.

Older generations, like some of us, are quick to condemn those who follow in their wake. We convince ourselves that things can never be as good today as they were ‘back in the good old days’.

The modern youngster is labelled with every conceivable stereotype that older generations can conjure from a world they no longer recognise. Consequently, today’s teenagers cannot spell because they spend their whole time text-messaging; cannot write because they spend their whole time on computers; cannot walk or run a reasonable distance because they pass their days in front of Play stations and Wiis.

Oh, and did we forget to mention that they’re also feckless, lazy & indifferent.

Well, I don't believe a word of it but what do you think? All I can say is God bless our blissful ignorance!

Youngsters today are streets ahead of their predecessors in a whole range of life-skills and we can only look on in envy at the sort of poise and confidence they bring to their daily lives.

Perhaps they don’t have the literary skills of previous generations (how can they in an era of electronic communication?) or they may lead more sedentary lifestyles (aren’t we all guilty of that particular failing!) - but they would lose and find older generations when it comes to many other aspects of life.

And more power to them!
