Catherine,

Sailed passed your lovely Island often.....never had a chance to land though. The tidal range you have is frightening.

A relative of my SIL lives on Jersey. Paul Kearsey.....Writer.

Would a Jet Ski not do ? That's more like what our Thread are into.

Right up the Thames to Tower Bridge.......WOW !

You got it Stephen, a baby sporran. He's got a chain that he drags me away from things with. I thought the ankle chain was something kinky years ago, but have learn't different over the years. LOL

Patricia,

You can't wait for 60 years to have a Limo Ride on your 90th Birthday. They will be out of fashion by then.

Well good evening everyone.
Welcome Cath, you will need to be a nutter to understand us lot, but we have some good fun,all totally cyber wise of course.
Why worry about the dreaded house*ork, ( tut tut Mo don't swear ) there is always tomorrow.

Pat, stick around love, if you haven't been in a white limo before, you don't know what you have missed. Stephen arranges all our transport, from stretch limo's to jet planes.
But a broomstick is a definate must have, and a black cat if possible, to sit either back or front of you.

Linda, I am sorry to hear that they have kept dad in hospital again. But they need to sort him out, as mum is so dependant on him, bless him.
She will probably be in a right daze again till he's home.

Who's a lucky girl then Rita all those lovely presents, the family are spoiling you, but they must love you to bits.
You wont know where to put all the christmas cards you are receiving.
But they help to make it feel more christmassy don't they. I like to buy the Mc Millan Cancer cards, but I do think the postal charges are preposterous

I am loving the christmas decorations, but I cannot add to them coz I can't do them.

Stephen, I didn't buy anything for myself whilst out shopping. Weeell I did really, FOOD.
Roly was with me, keeping a hold on the purse strings.

I've always fancied a ride in a limo on my 90th birthday1 I've got plenty of time to go til that. Whether I'd be able to disco dance then would be another matter.
I own up to googling ROFL. I didn't know what it was!

When ever you're ready to fly.....give us the nod.

If not flying.....what ferry ?

hi everyone,
I had a busy morning but a lazy afternoon!
I've never been in a white limo before. I look forward to the ride.
Welcome Catherine.
I like you tree Stephen!
In fact I like all your pictures. I'm not even going to try!

Evening everyone, thanks for the welcome. Wish I'd discovered this thread sooner.

Stephen that initiation sounds like fun and oddly enough I really do own a broomstick, (hanging on lounge wall) my Oh bought it for me, can't imagine what he was trying to tell me. Only problem is I'm scared of flying.
I'll have to catch the ferry, lol.

Its been a nice day, did walk the dog this morning but never got the dreaded housework done as OH decided we'd go into town -by bus- and have lunch and a drink. This just doesn't happen so the housework went out of the window. Had a lovely time although it felt strange as usually we have a houseful for saturday lunch.

Linda,

Overweight !

I am too.

I worried about this until a very respected specialist (ME) diagnosed that I was suffering from Reversed Anorexia Nervosa. ROFL

Seriously though it's amazing how this little gland, the Thyroid, can have such an effect on our metabolism.

Stephen ask Pauline to forward the e-mail I had sent to her this morning. I don't have your e-mail or you would have it yourself.

You will see the relevance if she does LOL

Linda

Rita thank you for passing on what happened to you. I do hope they sort him out as Mum will be getting very anxious again. She gets very panicy when he isn'e there for her.

You might remember I have an under active thyroid? My symptoms were very different, mainly the weight gain and not being able to loose it, dry skin, dry, thinning hair and feeling very cold. Oh and dropping to sleep in the chair after little exertion. Much the same as I feel now to be fair.

Be back later Hubby just got in need to make him a cuppa

Linda :o) XxX

Some parents struggle to come to terms with the idea that their children are not as young as they used to be.

A recent example was the story of a mother still breast feeding her 5-year old.
