Rita, I think it's more like Murphy's law that you live by.

Megan has had enough experiences with hospitals to know exactly what nurses do, I'm sure she'll make a good little nurse for Ryan. Let's hope they find out what's wrong with him and get it put right as soon as possible.

Pualine about time you showed up. ?
I have trouble with my tinittus still it is driving me up the wall really is staying at a high pitched ringing no releif at all. I took two pain killers strong ones I said to my daughter if the kill me well too bad, it might be better than having this constant noise I do not expect any help from the law of avergaes I have given up all hope now.

Ryan is home for the weekend he goes back to London tomorrow to St Thomas hospital he has to have another MRI poor little mite my granddaughter asked why ? he had one two days ago at the other hospital. it appears they are ignoring that one they know what they are looking for so want to do their own MRI he will be in for two to three days.
his sister Megan is rushing around helping him. I think she is going to be a nurse when she is old enough lol.

Rita, what a carry on you've had, I hope the medication has started to work now and you're feeling a little bit better. I've been thinking about little Ryan and wondering how he was. By the law of averages things have to start to improve for you and your family soon.

Maddie, I've got quite a few of those scarfs, wearing a couple together works as well. Did you get your beef cooked? I Did a duck for dinner today.

Marilyn, are you going for a holiday or as a baby sitter?

I'm waiting to see what Shelly got for Mother's Day.......... especially from the l3 year old.

I know Linda and Mo always do well with the prezzies and I'm sure the rest of you will as well.

Cath and Pat, we can send you the photos of everybody if you want them, I think Jean already has them.

Stephen if I had a £ for every time I'd rowed a boat I'd only be able to buy a bag of chips between us all.

Hope all goes well tomorrow Yvonne, I'll be thinking of you and hubby.

Just a wee thing to think about

What a Friend we have in Mother,
She will all our secrets share
We should never keep thing from her
Tell her all and she'll be there

Oh, What tender loves she gives us,
when in sorrow or despair
treat her kindly treat her gently
She will listen she'll be there

Day by day as she grows older
she's the familys guiding star
Don't forget the Prayers she taught you
You may need them by and by

Though her hair is turned to silver
Send her flowers sweet and fair
Dropa card or send a letter
She will listen she'll be there

When her eyes are closed in slumber
Gently kiss her Icy brow
Fold her hands upon her bossom
She will rest in Heaven now.

Though your days are dark and dreary
and your Cross is hard to bear,
Don't forget the Prayers she taught you
She will listen she'll be there.


I have carried the above Poem with me through thick and thin since 1964.

I know the words by heart.

The last thing I did for my Mum was to kiss her brow and fold her hands over her chest. She was at peace. Her prayers helped me.

Morning Cath and Stephen and all others
Nice clear morning here. Hoping to get the gate painted today while it is still dry. Did the fence yesterday, but it needs another coat.
Lovely meal at my daughters last night, pork medallions, rice and veg, then strawberries and creme fraiche on merangue(pavlova), small glass of cava and good company. Son and his wife were there too. Two nice cards and a bouquet of roses. Thats before the spa day and massage !! Just had a text from our youngest think she'll be over later.

Got the decorating products yesterday, now need to crack on and get that room finished.

Catch you later.

Happy Mothers Day everyone (excluding Stephen and Dermot............... your day will come !!! )

Morning All !

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY TO ALL YOU MOTHERS

Catherine, You forgot to make the breakfast .As it's Mothers Day I'll forgive you.

Marilyn,
Your Big Boobs, are those your 'Flip Flops' that Pete told you to cover up in Florida ? ROFL

How did the grandson do at his Rowing ? Was it a Scull, Four or Eight and I nearly forgot, was it a Gig. Gig Rowing is very popular on the South Coast.

Wish I had a £ for every mile I've rowed a boat and paddled a canoe.
I could treat you all to a bag of chips.

Looking forward to our walk today and our meal afterwards. The Trossachs area is really lovely, I have been going there for donkeys years, always find something new to interest me though.

Have a nice day ya all............and if you're a Mother.....get pampered.

Morning everyone,
Shelly that menu doesn't sound too good, you and daughter should just go out for lunch together and leave the boys to cook their own!!
I think my tribe are planning to take me out for lunch, I hope so because if not they're not getting any here.
Hope everyone is well and Rita is feeling better,
Have a lovely day,

Cath xx ~~~~~~~~~~to all.

Hope they've moved the cows out .

Maddie...........Neil coming straight to you Express Parcel Delivery. He is currently doing some voice overs for Scottish Tourist Advertising. I'll tell him you're asking for him.
