General Chat

good morning to you Marilyn,
I have been to the shops and did my weekly shopping I was out of fruit only had two oranges and I do love my fruit now i have a big bowl full.

We have our path blocked off the contractors are doing the path taking up the heather hedge and relaying it with Tarmac would you beleve?
so I have to walk around the back of the estate along a road then another path down that path and walk along to the crossing then over the road to the shops. normal I go out the gate on the path along the road o to the shops. so I not happy at that still I have it all done now.
Hope to go into Town tomorrow if the weather is dry and I feel up to it.?

My friend across the lawn has been feeding a hedgehog strange as I had said on another thread we had none here. I think this Hedgehog came to
prove me wrong..
I did a little gardening this morning. as you know I have a very tiny patch of garden here but it was full of flowers so as they looked sorry for themselves I thought it was time to pull them up. I only did half the garden as I was shattered. good job I did as the window cleaners came and they use hoses so all the ground gets soaking wet.. I told them to make sure they got rid of the spiders web that was on the window and had been there for three weeks. it was on the outside of the window.

A Friend then came and gave me 20 conkers. she knew where a conker tree was and you know I asked for conkers for getting rid of those Big Hairy Spiders. so I have some now.

Morning All
Linda that poor friend of yours what a terrible thing to happened. but men go through a menapause so perhaps this is whats happening in this case I had friends where this happened but not on their wedding anniversary.
.I am so sorry for her.

so you went out for a meal I bet you enjoy that ? makes a change from cooking. I hope you have a lovely day today.
Marilyn
what can I say but another year older and another year wiser as the s aying goes.
you did have a lovely birthday didnt you ? it was fun waiting to see what drawing was going to appear for your celebration. did your sister enjoy her birthday . If I had known her name I could have mentioned her as well.

Stephen
Pine trees always look so elegant but those pines when they drop make a hell of a mess and block gutters and Drains I use to wear thick gloves to clear mine up after shovelling them off the path and had many a nasty cut with them, I had to shut my dog in the house incase they got into his paws. poor Ben did not like that..

Yvonne
I think your heel is on its way." walking back to happiness ." I hope the Postman knows what it is in that little packet. ?

Mo
I did have a good nights sleep even though I made a few trips to the Loo good job I dont have an outside Loo now. I did when I was a small child..

Have a good day.
Rita

Jean

Just take things as they come and keep that chin up and wear a smile.

God Bless you
Love
Rita

Morning everyone, Good news, it looks like the surgery and radio therapy has been successful, start Chemo next Monday, for 5 weeks, then another scan. Started another course of treatment for the cancer in my back yesterday, 4 injections then another scan.
Thank you for all your kind thoughts.
Marilyn I hope you enjoyed your birthday, love the pictures that the girls have done for you, they must be very clever to do them, takes me all my time to type messages.
Hope you have all recovered from your trip to the Ritz.
Take care and stay safe.
Jean xx

Linda, so sorry about your friend, how cruel to tell her that, specially on their anniversry. Hope she will be ok. xx

GOOD MORNING ..EVERYONE.

Wasn't I a spoil' t girl on my birthday..!!
Wow a bit over whelmed with all those greetings and as the for the lorry full of pezzy's its taken me hours this morning to unload them.

So thank you all again. xxxx... but its over now....dam !

Last night we had a great time, curry went down well and so did the drinks !
I had to shooo them home at midnight, I was cream cracker'd.

I'm still a bit sleepy .....going to drink that tea Stephen has made then be back.

Linda so sad to hear about your friend.......poor woman after all those years.

Morning all
Stephen, no swimming for me Thanks.

Well Little will be with me 3 days a week from next week, mum has got her into a local nursery on Thursdays and Fridays. She has a trial session on Wed next week.

Hubby took me out for a meal last night we went to a Thai, but they had probs with their Gas? So had to wait half an hour. Oh well at least we chatted.

My friend popped in yesterday afternoon for a chat. She was emotional as her hubby told her on Saturday that he wasn't sure that he wanted to still be with her? It was on their 34th Anniversary too. What an awful thing to do. She is in pieces.

Have a good day everyone

Linda :o) XxX

Tea or Coffee (_______)------- (frying pan) It's a cooked breakfast this morning.
Eggs, sausage,mushrooms, bacon,black pudding, fruit pudding, and anything else you want to add.

Had to 'Hoover' my lawn at the back of the house last night.
After the last strong wind a carpet of Pine Needles had covered the place. I was amazed how thick they were on the ground. Seemed to take forever to clean them up. Trees are fantastic and look lovely but what a mess they cause....and it's always where you don't want it to be.
I'm sure roof gutters and gulleys are specially designed to catch leaves!!!!!!!

Dawn is brightening the sky just now.....glad I'm still here to see it.

Is it time for another escapade? Any suggestions?

How about a Cross Channel Swim?

Have a good day ya all.

Stephen

marilyn look its not your bithday any more

Hi everyone

Happy Birthday to Marilyn,

Sorry it's a bit late, haven't been too well past couple of days. I woke up Sunday morning with a hangover, now I caught a cold, been sneezing and snuffling all day.

then to top it all I realized I've broken my fave pair of stilettos (I wondered why I was walking with a limp!!!!)

Night Night Rita, see you tommorrow. I hope the horlicks work, and that you can sleep well. And the brain does not go into overdrive, thinking of all the things you need to get sorted for your AGM.
That always happens to me. God bless you love.

I wanted to get on with my Autobiography but did nothing

I also have an AGM for this estate next month so I need to get some of the

complaints sorted as well and they need to be typed out.

It is all or nothing with me.

Rita

Sitting and chatting is a good way to spend the day Stephen.
I do that every morning with my good friends. We meet at 10.00a.m,and don't leave till about 12.00 mid-day, when we then get our shopping.
And we do this come rain or shine. Saddo's really LOL

I do hope Jean is O.K Rita. This silence is not good.

well that great news to hear you had a good day Stephen.

I have no idea how those girls do those drawings ? I have tried and mine look like they are a special code.left over from the war.

either that or the birds stood in some paint and did a jig over a sheet of paper.

Has Jean had any results yet ?does anyone know ?

Marilyn your Birthday is nearly over for another year. your a lucky lady to have so many birthday cakes and drawings even fireworks..
and we think your great.

Rita

Mo,

Hows my day been?

It was supposed to be a 'holiday' and we were shut.

I went in to my office knowing it would be quiet and I could get on with some outstanding stuff without being disturbed.

I kept thinking I could hear noises but put it down to some road works going on nearby.

Then out pops one of my cafeteria staff....she too had come in to get some peace and quiet......and then my handyman/joiner appeared...he wanted to get on with some work as well...we all had a coffee and a natter. It was good to relax with them without the pressure of 'work'.

My staff are great and I really appreciate how they give 100% effort, and I also let them know how much I appreciate them.

Yes! had a good day.

Stephen
