Rita,

You're busier than HM Queen Elizabeth. :-) :-) :-) :-)

And talking about Queens........ Queen Victoria became Queen on the
20th June 1837..........174 years ago today.......just a wee bit more useless information.

I write letter some of my friends do not have computers. so I write once a month and them to Cumbria. Newcastle and Linconshire and Norfolk. so I do still put pen to paper.
I send alot of emails as well to others.

I had a hectic morning. I went to the Dentist back next Monday. I called into the doctors to get an earlier appointment for my warafin blood test.
then came back phoned for an appointment for the foot doctor he is calling this afternoon at 4 oclock.
I phoned the care people to see if they could arrange a car for me for 29th June for my CT scan to take me to Ashford Hospital. no reply yet.
I did two loads of washing. then did my dinner.
I got a call to remind me of the strawberry tea next Thursday. and The Rotary club phone to remind me of the outing for a drive around Surrey and to stop for tea.

Though Provoking

“If upon entering some home you saw that everything there was well-tended, neat and decorative, you would believe that some master was in charge of it, and that he was himself much superior to those good things.

So too in the home of this world, when you see providence, order and law in the heavens and on earth, believe that there is a Lord and Author of the universe, more beatiful than the stars and the various parts of the whole world.”

Dermot,

Not me , I hated writing letters, I wrote so many when Pete was in the Navy that I feel I did it for a life time.

I only write in cards now....sadly .

But that's history now....besides the postal stamps needs a piggy bank !! :-S

Alistair Cooke, famous for his weekly 'Letter from America' died in 2004.

How many of us bother to put pen to paper to write a letter anymore?

Now lets see if I can remember what I've read.

Belated congratulations to Cath for yesterday and a Happy Birthday to your daughter for today.

Oh yes, and well done for doing the walk, hope you all raised a lot of money.

Sorry to hear you're still feeling ill Mo, and thank you very much for the lovely card, you're very thoughtful.

Hope Stephen and Dermot had a good Father's Day yesterday, did your children spoil you?

Stephen, where's my birthday kiss? It was Pat's birthday last week and she got one.......... might just sulk a bit :-(

What have you got that I haven't got, Pat? Bet he's after one of those scones.

Jean, do you sit Scarlett on the horses with you? Bet she'll be able to ride before she starts school.

Good luck at the dentist Rita, hope there's no problems.

Maddie, I didn't get my piece of K's cake because my cyber hatch was shut.

How are your parents today Linda?

Thank you for the cake Marilyn, I'll cut it all up later. You'll have to get cracking on another one because it's Shelly's birthday this week as well.

:-D :-D :-D :-) :-) :-) <3 <3 <3 :-) :-) :-) :-D :-D :-D <3 <3 <3

These little imoticons never seem to go where I want them to go.

Nightmare !

It took me from 5.45am until just a few minutes ago to get my Computer up and running.

BT were working on the Broadband Network throughout the Country and caused a real problem.

Finished up having to have it fixed remotely by an Operator in India or someplace :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(
