Morning Rita,
Scrambled eggs please Stephen.
When I was younger I used to collect quotes and make posters out of them I don't do it now and one of my favourrite quotes was
" Christianity wants nothing more than sunny people and the old are hungrier for love than they are for bread" or something like that.
Dermot's quote about smiling reminded me of that.
Have a good day everyone x

Dermot here is a mile for you SMILE I dont give them to everyone.
"keeping on smiling keep on smiling the whole world smiles at you."

Morning Catherine. Sue, Jean. Linda, Pat. Pauline,Shelly.Marilyn.Mo Yvonne, Stephen. Dermot Maddie, and Lady.
Thats the roll call finished

It is very windy here a dull grey old day and we might have rain so they say ? but I think we will have rain by the look of that sky.

have a good day

Rita

Morning All !

No Damage !

Up early as usual. Checked round my property. All ok.

A really wild night. Strongest wind we have had for ages. Apart from when I have Haggis.

Will be on the alert when driving for fallen branches on the road.

(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)?
Tea or Coffee.
Porridge or Cereals. Fresh fruit juice. Scrambled eggs. Toast. Bacon Rolls.

Poor folks in the Western Isles. Battered by 90mph winds. All transport links stopped. The Causeways between some of the Islands also closed. This is due to the fact that a few years ago a family of five in their car were washed off a Causeway by a huge wave. All drowned.

Waves off the Shetland Isles are running at about 50ft. Kinda big for canoeing I think.

You can't stop Mother Nature. Wind and Sea. A really powerful force.

Have a good day ya all.

Keep safe. Keep Happy. Keep Smiling.

Just a thought: If you see somebody without a smile tomorrow, give them one of yours.

I seem to be the only one awake on here so I will say good night to you all

sleep well.

That cemetery is so spooky it is over grown. some of my late Husbands relations are buried there his Grand parents and his Great Grandparents they use to buried them there from St Pancras.
,
you say that about the EU. well I can tell you this for a fact the old Willesden cemetery where a lot of my family are buried.including my parents, they have very old graves some are crumbling. the council covered them with earth built then up high and are now burying people on top of the old Graves.they even have baby graves on them. you have to go up an incline to get to the graves. at the moment our graves have not been touched it might be we go there as often as w e can to tend to them. but my father payed for the plots his self so I wnder how they can do this to these others.

Rita

It's beddy byes for me.
Just done the rubbish. spent an enjoyalbe evening listening to Radio Devon and reading. I heard lots of old songs.
Going to get myself a cup of coffee and read for a while.
Interesting stuff about HRT.

This made me laugh.
My sister went to the Metroploitan Archives this morning as you know we are doing an article on old Willesden starting in 1860. so we have been trying to find the details on a big house that was the centre of Willesden in 1860 who owned it ? she had asked to view the book of Land exchange which was at Guildhall so she had arranged for it to go to the Archives she found all the information we required.. she said it was a hugh volume so big that she could not lift it so she had to ask someone to carry it to the desk and then take it away again she said she felt like a wimp the only time she had found a book too heavy for her to lift.
I have never heard my sister call anyone a wimp.let a lone her
I remember we went to the same Archives once before looking at the poor house books and they used a trolly to push the book to the desk for us to look at /.

Rita,

I'm sure that'll cheer the Highgate Cemetery residents up. ROFL.

Gotta agree with you though. I hate seeing how the Cemeteries are often left to go wild.

Legislation in recent years from the EU has ruled that only four people can now be buried in a grave. This has caused a lot of distress with families who only find out at the last minute that their mum or whoever cannot be buried beside their loved ones.

Night all.

Marilyn you little devil you no wonder you go on holiday alot we will have to make a face for you of a fruity drop Lol Lol that is me laughing

I heard that the Highgate cemetery is being cleaned up as it is a famous one and we have lots of famous people buried in there they thought it was worth cleaning up.. it was so overgrown the last time I was there.


Rita

Oh Marilyn do i need a chastity belt, lol. Have to take tablets for 3 months and then get a check up to see if hormone levels are better.

Rita great news that Mike is up and about and has sorted out pain relief. I hope he improves a little more each day.
