Afternoon All.

Dashing in and out I am afraid.

Pleased for you Rita, well done. 3 months of peace of mind.

No I didnt pee the bed either. But my kids came home with nits. The lotion was disgusting. The small comb breaks the nits legs and causes them to die.

No, Pauline, no seamed stocking for me. Never have, never will.

Hope everyone else is well and warm.

Take care.

Hmmmm. Neil Oliver with a beard, me no likey I'm afraid.

Yes Shelly, you're the only one............ 'cause I didn't pee the bed either!!

One of my friends has a son who was still wetting the bed when he was 9. I used to work with someone who found out after she was married that her husband still wet the bed.......... he was 21.

My son got nits the first week he went to nursery. I got the shock of my life when I saw something crawling in his head. I carried him out to the car - at arms length - and took him straight to my mother. My mam went to the chemist and got some lotion and a small tooth comb, then sorted the problem out for me.

He never got them again because I cut nearly all of his hair off.

I agree with you Mo, I think the nit problem in the schools now is because they no longer have a nit nurse. She used to send kids home if she found anything in their heads. Now the nits just get passed from one kid to the next.

Rita, that's great news, you can relax now and stop worrying.

Marilyn, I feel guilty sitting here doing nothing while you're going out power walking............ I'll get over it though!

Very funny Dermot, I liked it. Think I'll tell my nieces to look for boyfriends who are lovely & wealthy.

rits thats like one f my boys he cryed at school once becouse thay was giveing out a nitty comb to all the children it was a new thing
and my boys dident get one thay all had skinheads and 2 of them still do
i tryed to tell him that he dident get one cos the teacher new he dident have the nitts but he was still not happy so i had to go and ask her for one

so im the only one here that piddled the bed them lol

Very Informative Dermot ... glad I have just slipped in for me bus pass as I'm sure Plymouth City council will follow !!

Hows everyone today ?

I expect Lynda has received some of the sun I kindly sent over to her.

Dermot I must have loads of them bed bugs in my bed as I have an electric blanky of which they love.......and so do I ..LOL
So me and bed bugs are mates !!

Shelly I never peed the bed ever I was a good little gal .....but I had a male cousin that did right up until he was 15yrs ....how sad .
I don't know about now but that's what my mother told me.

I have done my power walk.......cant see any shrinkage YET !!

Rita glad about your results...great news.

Hi to.... Pat, Catherine, Pauline, Shelly, MO, Dermot, Stephen, Jean.Yvonne Maddie,Rita, to our gone astray ones LIZ, LADY, SUE.

Hellooooo Shelly, I am here.
I think we must have come from the posh area, as I have never heard of that word before.
We did have the nit nurse, who came to check every child in the schools head.
I never had to suffer the indignity of have nit lotion applied to my hair.
We would run away from any kid who had them. I suppose I was lucky with my kids as well, as none of them had them.
But my grandchildren, have had them so often it's unbelievable. I blame it on them taking (the nurse) Nitty Nora out of the schools.
Any child found having them should be excluded from school, until their heads are clear, and cleared by Nitty Nora. Vinegar was used to give hair shine,after washing thoroughly.
Oooops jumps of soap box now.

Rita, I cant tell you how pleased I am for you love. Three months grace is great. Now stop your worrying mate, and get rid of that tinnitus.
I was reading in the Dail* Mirr*r today about the management of tinnitus, and they recomend having music, or the t.v on in the background, to drown out the noise. I am not sure if that would work though, as the ringing in the ears can be quite loud can't it. And you would deafen your neighbours, if you had the music up loud enough to drown out the noise in your ears. LOL

Dermot, I am LOL here.

shelley I didnt have nits my mother wanted to make sure I didnt get them.

as some of the children were given letters to take home telling their

parent they had nits. The nit nurse i told the class it didnt mean a

child was dirty to get nits often the clean headed children got them.

My daughter caught them when she was at school I nearly went spare

as I always washed their hair everynight. but I knew what Mum had done

so I did it for my daughter. i am itching now talking about it.

reminds me of Megan ( my Granddaughter ) she came home from school

and told her mother they had an air raid at school. I said they must be

talking about the war to the children. it wasnt it was the nit nurse came to

check the childrens hair so infact Megan class had a hair inspection.

We used a nit comb they were black but now I have seen them in the chemist white. I use to have my hair washed and then mother would put alittle vinegar in the water to rinse. then rinse my hair a couple of times.

I used them on my children when they were little.

Bed bugs are grateful to have someone to chew on at night.

Oh God, I remember those small tooth combs, ours was black not white. I always tried to avoid it, it was a nightmare getting one of those things pushed through thick curly hair. My mother would ask me who I'd been playing with at school and - depending on my answer - I would get dragged across the room to the light of the window and she'd use the dreaded small tooth comb on me.

I often used to lie to her so she wouldn't use the comb on me.

Still don't know that word gibbs, Shelly, we just called them nits or dickies.

We only had one word and that was nits ...

I can remember my mother always on a Friday night combing our hair with those tiny white teeth combs that hurt like hell.. I cant think why they were white as one day in school the girl in front of me had nits and I was watching them in her hair and they were white !!
So how was that comb going to show any nits ..LOL

Dont remember vinegar Shelly ....is that a LONDON thing ?

we just had carbolic soap....LOL

there you go pauline think you spell it this way gibbs

that what we use to say for nits

so mother would say get your bleeding arss her i want to check you for gibbs

but you would do a runner vos you new that you would have half a bottle of viniger tip over your head

bet mo now this only to well lol

and i see she is on the missing list


EDIT .... and if any aunties see you scrach your head she will then tell your mother that she think you are a nitty nora

or you was told to stay away fron another kid as thay are a nitty nora

think we need Mo she will no what i meen lol

ill try spelling again

could be gubs goobs may be i should google

Yoobs??? Never heard of that before, Shelly! I've heard of Nitty Nora though.

Marilyn, I think I got a PM off the same woman as you last week, it just said.............. "Who did Henrietta Marry" (no question mark or anything, didn't even say Hi). I've got about 6 people in my tree called Henrietta and I'd never been in contact with the woman before, so I had no idea who she was talking about.

Pat, G&Ts are lovely, especially with ice and a little bit of lime, if I wasn't on my way to bed - I'd have one now.

Maddie, does your nurse's uniform come with seamed stockings?

Wasn't a good day for you Cath was it? Never mind, tomorrow's another day.

Glad you enjoyed your meal Mo and it must have tasted better - knowing that there wasn't a service charge.

Jean, my niece has a couple of horses and she said she's just bought a gypsy horse. I asked her what she meant and what the difference was, she said it would grow to be very big and strong. Is that the kind of horse that you've kept to pull your Vardo?

Stephen, where were you when you were talking to Neil, where did you see him? Not sure he'd suit a beard.......... I don't like beards.

I know Stephen hasn't got a beard but haven't seen a photo of Dermot............. have you got a beard Dermot?

Yvonne, I've just sent for a cert and I'm not sure I'll get the right one because both the surnames have different spellings to what is on the census records.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you Rita.

no maddie nitty nora is if you have the nitts

or as we use to call them yoobs that some one with nitts not the nitty nurse lol

will have to ask some one on records office see if thay no

Hi All ,

Stephen .......I don't think I could waste 89 grand on a Aston Martin G&T...
I'll stick to my Toyota Aygo.......

Pat....... you'll love a G&T in the sun always taste better ...LOL with a dash of lime !!

Now I'm nearly ready for my dinner. think I've had too much to drink everything looks double .....

So going now see you all tomorrow......might see Shelly later though.... she always needs to talk to me ...LOL
