Morning, I've been cleaning, just stopped for a cuppa.

Shelly, our schools aren't off yet. My niece's school breaks up tomorrow for 2 weeks, her oldest daughter breaks up next Tuesday and her youngest breaks up next Thursday. She gave up her job as a well paid accountant and went into teaching so she could have the same holidays as her kids, but it never works out right.

Rita, do you feel better after having a good sleep? It's hard to cope with anything if you aren't getting your sleep.

Yes Stephen, the wheelchair is all sorted now, he's up and running. It's the first time he's had a chair that he can't get the breaks off. He's not happy about that....... but everybody else is!!

It's sunny and warm here, much better than yesterday.

morning all

iv not long got up lazzy cow ant i LOL
all nice and peace full here mum and baby have got down the carvan for 2 week hope baby will be ok with his bad foot and my girls have took my 16yr old with them so only me here with 2 of my boys and little one will play out most of the day

Maddie forgot to say I didnt read that article you mention on Tinitus. I missed that I stayed up till 11 oclock last night. thought if I stayed awake I might sleep.?

so I listened to the radio in bed for 15 minutes after taking a sleeping pill. and sneezing half a dozen times (not surprising with the weather the way it is ) I went to sleep got up twice during the night and back straight off to sleep. I didnt wake till 8 this morning. just shows you how tired I was and what a sleeping pill can do it is only a light pill 5 mg.

My old friend phoned last night about 8. we have been friends since we were 5 years old she is 82 and I am 80 so it is a longtime. I sent her 12 sheets of typing about the road and aera we grew up in and how it all began dated back to 1820 .she phoned to thank me. I said it is going into The Willesden History Societies Magazine at Christmas quarter. it is only a kind of newspaper magazine we have among the members. of WFHS
so I am not doing anything at the moment. cannot find my missing Abslom he vanished off the earth and Walter Lee I got as far as I can with him could find no death. thought I had in Portsmouth where he lived when he retired as a 1st class Petty Officer in 1911. I sent for his death certificate. I was sure it was him till it came them knew it wasnt. you may have seen it advertisted on the boards as free to anyone whos family he was in.
well have a good day.

Rita

Looks like I'm all alone.

Supper, Shower then bed.

Night all .

Evening All !

Another busy day. Glad to have a wee rest. Had my tea, lovely moist chops and loads of fresh Veg.

Rita, You are still suffering, what a nightmare. Time they all got their act together and fixed you out once and for all. I manage to live with the constant 'hissing' noise in my ear. Very seldom does it cause any real problem. If I were in your shoes I would probably start a war on the NHS.

Shelly, How's the wee one doing ? Doing the Highland Fling yet ? LOL.

Pauline did the Wheelchair situation finally get resolved ?

Passing the Driving Test ! Who can forget the magic feeling when you get told the good news. It opens up a whole new world.

Looking forward to my family coming back home from their holiday this weekend. Don't see them too often so I miss them when they are not within easy travelling distance if I want to see them.

Time for Coffee. Catch you later.

My granddaughter sat her paperwork driving test today and passed, she was so pleased. I am not sure what date her driving test is ? she did tell me but I forgot.
I have still not heard from the consultant. so I might take a walk over to my doctors surgery and ask for for an appointment to see another doctor.
if I have to wait I will. I have to anyway.
I cannot beleive how long it has gone on for. sometimes I think I am going mad..

I hope all thoses going on holiday have a great time and get good weather.like to hear all about it when you return.

I have just turned my heating off as I am warm now and my flat is very small.
My son has put his heating on he said it was so cold there. but he has 7 bedrooms so it takes alot of heating.
have a good evening

nite
Rita

Yvonne, I send my best wishes to your son for his driving test next week.
My grandaughter told me she was due to sit her test, but I was sworn to secrecy,and didn't even tell Roly, ooooops that went down like a lead balloon. He was not best pleased that he didn't know, but she asked me not to say anything, and a promise is a promise.
How is your OH coping with the loss of his mum. When Roly lost his mum, he found it really hard to accept. I suppose it was made worse by his being an only child, and he had already lost his dad.

Rita, I can't believe you are still suffering love. This has gone on for so long now, and must be really getting you down.
I hope you get a reply to your E.Mail soon, so that you can be seen sooner.
I am wondering like you, how people are going to go about getting to the airports on the 29th of April. The wedding is not something you would take into consideration, when booking a holiday,especially when we have not been invited. LOL
There must be routes around the area where the wedding proccession, is
taking place. Unless of course the drivers have got the day off as well.

Hi all, it's been freezing today, it's like winter's come back.

Hope all went well for Cath getting away. I'm sure she'll have a brilliant holiday.

Marilyn, have you gone yet?

Well done to Mo's granddaughter for passing her test first time.......... that's better than I did. And well done to Mo for not losing at darts............. LOL

Keeping my fingers crossed for your son Yvonne.

Shelly, how's little legs today? That boy is going to be a heart-breaker when he grows up.

Rita, I hope you get better treatment by going private.......... although you shouldn't have to really.

Hello Yvonne and all the others on friendly.

No I am not so well I dont seem to be getting anywhere ? I had no sleep last night so felt tired today and have a headache.

I looked on the net for a private consultant like Marilyn had said found one near me and emailed and have had no reply.

I went into Town as my head was giving me a problem and I was shivering all the way I am still cold what has happened to our weather.?
I have turned my heating back on.
I went and had my hair shampoo and trimmed thought it might make me feel better ? it was nice and relaxing . My hair dresser a young women told me her boyfriend is running in the marthon this weekend to raise funds for children cancer.she said he has worked so hard and hopes to get a good time.and raise alot of money.

I managed to buy my St Georges Day cards the usual shop I buy them from didnt have any in this year but I managed to get some from Clinton Cards
My sister is booked to go to Turkey for a holiday on 29 th of this month. so she walked down to the coach station to book the coach to take her too Sandstead.this morning
from Hampstead . only to be told they would not be any due to the Royal Wedding. so she has booked herself into a hotel near Sandstead for the afternoon and night, they have a shuittel service running from the Hotel.
she said anyone leaving their booking a coach for that day may find they have a problem

Afternoon everyone

Shelly ...thanks for trying ....but I still have my little man in my account ,but the change in the setting wont have him as my board name !!

Just in case you all forgot him here he is ... LOL

Marilyn (`•¿•`) HELLO .....to you all ...

Hi Everyone
Friends have just left after sharing a lovely meal cooked by hubby. We had homemade bread with olive oil and balsmic vinegar to start. Then clams, mussels and tiger prawns in a garlic wine & cream sauce with carrotts, french beans and asparagus. For pudding he made pancakes filled with apple & sultanas and vanilla ice cream. It was really good and our friends enjoyed it too.

Little M's Mum just called to see if I can have her Thurs & Fri as Grandma was supposed to have her, but she has flu !!! Of course I couldn't say NO, hubby not best pleased as he is off on Thurs, but I always help if I can.

Hope you have a great time Cath enjoy your family time and Easter away.

Hope Olly is recovering Shelly.

Hope everyone else is OK

Linda :o) Xxx

(*_*)


ha thats better been trying to make a new little face for marilyn
and now looks like she is not here

and a big thank you al that have wish the baby well xxx

Hello Folks,

Just popping in to say 'Hello' .

Gonna have a shower then supper and off to bed early tonight..

Shelly, Glad the wee one is doing fine after the operation.

Night all !

Jeniwren, we drew at darts last night 3-3 but lost the pairs 2-1.
To be honest, we expected to lose, as they are top of the league, and are a very strong team.
Hows little Scarlett doing now. I hope she is well, and still into mischief.
I love it when little ones are mischevious, it shows they have got their own little characters,and are full of spirit.

Maddie, I can't crochet, but when I was pregnant with my youngest son, I did crochet a beautiful pram blanket, and backed it with a lovely silk material.
After I had had him, and my first grandchild was due, I decided I would make one for her, but for the life of me, I couldn't do it. Now how mad is that.
It took my grandaughter two tries to pass her theory test though. And I bet if I had to resit it, I would fail now, even though I have only been driving since 2004.

Hello everyone, hope you are all ok and have had a good day.
Cath, I hope you enjoy your holiday and manage to relax.
Shelly, hope your little one is ok and hid foot is getting better, must be painful for him walking.
Mo my mora, hope you won at darts. Congratulations to your grandaughter on passing her test first time.

Wishing you all a peaceful night,
Sweet dreams.
Jean xx

Have a great time Cath. I hope the sea is not to choppy, and that it's all plain sailing love.
Little one will thoroughly enjoy herself and will be spoilt rotten I bet.
A happy easter to you all as well.

Marilyn, I hope you all enjoy yourselves as well. The longest part of your journey is now over, until your return of course.

Shelly, I loved the photo's of little legs. He's growing so quickly, it seems like only yesterday he was a tiny baby.

Linda, will you be knitting the baby blanket, or crocheting it. That is one thing I have never tackled. Oooh I tell a lie, I did make one once by knitting squares, but getting the tension right, and sewing all the squares together was a nightmare, NEVER again.LOL

I am dead chuffed, my grandaughter phoned me today, and she has passed her driving test, at her first attempt.
We have another three grandchildren,having driving lessons. Thats all very well, but when they pass, they want to buy cars, and the insurance for them is sky high, let alone the cost of buying the vehicle in the first place.

Now where has Jean, Pauline,Rita, Stephen, Maddie Yvonne, Sue, Lady all got to. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~to you all.
A big hello to everyone.
