Morning all.

Hope everyone is well and warm.

No snow yet, but very grey.

I bet Pauline and Stephen have been snowed in again.

Going out with the girls tonight, so may not be back later. Depends on how many cups of tea we have. lol

Have a good day everyone.

Shelly did you see The Royal Variety show this evening. I thought it was very good the nly little things I would say is they did have a lot of commedians on I think they could have cut down on that .
I thought "Les Miserables" was good I love that music. I also like the Chelsea Pensioners. bless them, I had a friend who went in there a few years ago. I dont know if he is still in there? he and his wife served in the Atmy as regulars,
The Male Ballet dancer who dance with his partner while Russell Watson san. made me laugh he was too well endowered for that costume he should have worn a darker colour.

I have had my hot lemon and honey drink so I will take a couple of paracetmol and go off to bed.
so I will wish all all a good night and see you tomorrow.

Have you noticed as we advance in life things get harder to do ? l.like opening things . whether it is meat in a platic container a parcel or a bottle or Jar. I sprained my wrist a couple of years ago trying to open a jar of jam the lid was crinkly so I could not use the opener that i have to open most jars.It must be men that dream up these idea;s on packaging..you have to use a knife to slit the plastic from the meat in a plastic wrapping container.tins that had a key attached so you have to wind them till the tin lid comes off. all dangerous Mr Health and Safety ignores all these things.The hospital told me they have more people come in to A & E with badly cut hands through trying to open tins and jars etc.

Dermot, The instructions on the bottle were squeeze and turn. It didn't work. I prised the lid off with a pair if scissors!

Only been a short while. It was mad again at work, cranking up a treat now.

Sleeting a bit here. Got off the bus and bought some chips and walked along eating them. Lovely.

Going for a drink tomorrow night with the girls from work.

Oh I see Pat.

The bottle was upside-down. Probably intended for the Australian market along with upside-down cakes.

PatriciaAnn

PatriciaAnn Report 16 Dec 2010 21:43

I think it's a fault in the design. I can open a 30 bottle ok!
These are multi vit tablets and they're quite good.

Mo in Kent Report 16 Dec 2010 21:38

Pat it sounds like you need Iron Tablets, not vitamins. LOL

PatriciaAnn Report 16 Dec 2010 21:33

I've just opened a new bottle of vitamin pills. Shame I had a to use a pair of scissors to help me!

Rita, I will say an extra prayer for your son in law tonight. I hope that it's a good outcome for him, he has gone through so much, and deserves a to get an all clear.

Shelly you are right, last year we did have lights at the top, by the G.R sign, but one measley little snow flake leaves me cold, not very welcoming at all.
I don't fancy chops tonight Shelly, but Cath's chinese sounded lovely, now I could eat that yummy.

Mmmm Pat, that meal sounds good for tomorrow, especially the pud and brandy ice cream.
As you can see, I would rather have a pud, than a main meal any day.
I could go out for a meal and be quite happy with a starter,and the pud, and not bother with the main meal at all.

You lot are doing well with all theses meals your having , We have had rain heavy all day. my daughter phoned to see how I was? she has now got snow and it is gettting thicker she lives in Hayes in Middleses. we still have the rain but it is getting very cold so I think it will be icy on the roads tomorrow.. please all take extra care.whether walking or driving.

Shelly marilyn went a day earlier. to Norwich as they were wanted to dodge the bad weather.

My nephew was due to fly out from Washington DC this evening but his flight has been cancelled. due to heavy snow. he has managed to book another flight. later but that will depend on the snow as well.my sister is checking on the computer the flights so she can book him a cab to collect him from heathrow and take him to her home.

My son in Law is due to go to the London Hospital tomorrow to get his scan results so Brett( Stacey partner ) is taking them. I will be praying for good results for him tomorrow.

Catherine I fancy Chinese tonight.
Pat your be fat with all these meals your having, one thing I dont like and it certainly does not like me is Currey

I am going to Watch The Royal Variety Show tonight.

Evening all.
Mmmmm Chinese Cath, what are you having.
Poor pooch, fancy taking her out in that orrid weather, I bet she was wishing you would just let her out for a tiddle,and then back next to the woodburner.
I have had my bath,and am sitting here in my P.J's,all cosy for the night.
Roly is of out to darts tonight, so I can please myself what I want to do.

Pat, where are you going for your meal tomorrow. Is it an evening do, or just a lunchtime meal.? Enjoy it whatever it is.
How many pressies have you got left to wrap.?

No snow here just yet, but just up the road from us, they have had a whole
deluge of it.
My son has just rung me, he is stuck on the motorway, trying to get home, and he says the traffic is at a standstill.
It's snowing a blizzard he reckons. He wanted Roly to go over to Maidstone to pick his Fiance up from work, but he cant go,as he's of out soon himself. Oh well she will have to either wait for my son to get there, or catch a bus home.
Huh once again the snow is causing havoc.
Going to get a cuppa, be back soon. Moxxx
