Morning all.

It's raining here, just had a downpour.

I've got my son at home today, he's hurt his neck (God knows how) and he's in pain.

Marilyn I think Ancestry is easy - they practically do all the work for you. You could put your tree from here onto there by using a gedcom.

Rita, when you see Sue, you should grab her and tell her off for being AWOL.

Linda do you want to bring all your stuff up here and entertain my son, because he's going to be bored just having me all day?

Did everybody have an early night last night? The thread looks like it was lonely.

Morning All,

Nice here today ....at last,

Linda ,I have my sheets in the wash ,so will be well pleased when they are on the line blowing away on this sunny day.

Now how good is Shelly to me ? SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD.
What would I do without her ? Dont know........She has created the tree that I'm doing. all because I'm stuck up there !!

Funny thing I have Ancestry but I have only Me & Pete & my Mum & Dad on
my tree , I find it difficult to do. too many boxes & Questions!! LOL
But My Genes one is thriving.... to me much easier to do than an Ancestry one.
But Shelly is a whiz kid on it ..........clever cloggs ..LOL

But I'm having a break from it today.....

My neighbour is going back to Aussie tomorrow with his family they have been here 7yrs so moving on.....a marriage split !! Sad I know.
So we are going to say our goodbye's today.

Morning Linda
It is nice here at the moment. but there are a few dark clouds in the sky with a bit of luck they will blow away and we will get anice day.

I hope you have a good day with the little one and get to feed the ducks. my grandchildren use to love to walk down to the pond and feed them when they stayed with me I dont know who enjoyed it most them or me. ?

Good Morning to Pauline, Shelly. Mo. Marilyn. Yvonne. Liz, Jean and Elizabeth and Stephen if he pops in.and Sue. who is about I have seen her on some of the threads.

Hope you all have a good day.

see you later

Rita

Another day another weather. Today is sunshine. Quick get the washing on.

Hope you are all well

Little is here today and tomorrow, so I shall be busy busy gluing and art all ready for her. Books puzzles and toys too. Must get the bread out of the freezer maybe we will go to feed the ducks .

Have a good day

Linda :o) XxX

evening all

well its been raining here all day times like this im gald i work in side

No I came out of my wardrobe ages ago I sorted out 6 white cotton shirts and some t-shirts and two jumpers so I will take them to the charity shop tomorrow. I will then start on the other wardrobe in the back bedroom.

Yes my day is a fighting day. I made my blood tests appointments for next week one for Warfarin and two for steriods . then I suddenly remember I had to ask the nurse something ? so I said the day before these tests are due I have to have my cancer scan and they inject iron into me is that all right ? no you had better phone up the hospital because she was not sure.Anticoagulation deptment and ask them. she said she would keep those appointments but if they said no I had to phone back so I got intouch and after three tries had an answering machine which told me they no longer deal with this and if I need urgent help to go to A & E so I have left it. I have to go to the chemist tomorrow to get my blood pressure repeat so I will ask the chemist herself see what she says.?
The an ambulance arrived parked outside but it went away after ten minutes.
next the gardeners arrived it was pouring of rain. I thought I need to have a lay down the door phone went and some asked to be let in to deleiver a parcel. Great so I got up again.
I wonder what next.
what are you Ladies and Gent up too. ?

Rita

Ooooh I missed you all again.
Thank you Pauline for sending Yvonne's photo on to me. Like the others have all said Yvonne,your OH is a tall one. But next to all the tall buildings over there, he did not look out of place.
I am used to being the short one in our family, my grandson is 6ft 4, at just 16, when I stand next to him, I feel like a midget. I fit under his armpit.

Good oh, our Rita is back to sounding fighting fit. You sort those door numbers out Rita, if anyone can do it, you can.
Hasn't your estate manager said when she is due back. With any luck she may stay there, she will not be a loss to you all.

Marilyn, I must admit, that I have been really dissappointed(sp) with BB this year. I watch it, but nothing is happening,and it's beggining to bore me. But you know what it's like you keep watching just in case. lol

Linda, next time you have a spa day, can you book us all in with you. I feel like I need a good rub down with the sporting life.

I hope you got on alright today Jean. Is it now two weeks since you started the treatment, or three. Forgive me, but the weeks all seem to roll into one.

We have had more downpours of rain today. I'm really cheesed orft, I did all my washing last night, thinking I would put it out nice and early today, but it has been awful all day. So the clothes horse has come out again.
I'm not allowed to use my tumble dryer, coz it costs to much, sez im indoors.

I notice Stephen did not pop in this morning. Perhaps er indoors has forbidden him to visit us. I do hope not, it's nice to have a visit from the opposite sex sometimes, to keep us on our toes.

Nobody has asked where I am ......boo hoo !!................

Where's Shelly ????

.She didn't ask me for a day off .


Oh well as I was stuck up my tree AGAIN , nothing she could have done.LOL


I have just come in from Food Shops, I'm sick of cooking in this horrible weather it makes me want to cook casseroles instead of lovely Salads .

Back in a mo ...someone at my door ...Hmmm could be Stephen !! LOL

Hi Yvonne, my hubby is 6' 2" as well but he doesn't look as tall as your hubby does on that photo. I think yours must have grown a lot since he was last measured............lol

Linda with all the rushing around you do, it's probably the only time you get to relax. If it makes you feel good - then it's worth it.

Rita must still be in her wardrobe.

Hi everyone

Welcome back Lady, nice to see you again and Rita I'm pleased to see you up and about

~~~~ to Stephen

My son took the photo while we were in New york, OH is about 6ft 2 and I'm only 5ft 1, son is nearly as tall as his dad

x

Hi Pauline
Yes I will probably go again. I have been a couple of times now. The lady I went with had never been before, and she loved it.

I have actually been to 3 different spa's. The Berystede, where I went yesterday is possibly the favourite and closest. If you can get an ofer it's not too bad either.

It's nice just to be able to do nothing. We read chatted and had a lovely lunch as well as in the pool, sauna and outdoor hot tub/jaccuzzi. Then the massage and manicure too.

Linda :o) XxX

Jean hope your be OK today each time is a near time to finishing so look forward to that.

It is not nice being on your own in places like that I know it happens to me.
but you get through it well we have to dont we ?

I am going to sort my wardrobe out now I have so many clothes some I have not worn for years. so they will go to the Hospice shop.

I watched WHDYTYA last night Monty Don anyone else watch it ? I thought it was a bit boring perhaps it is me getting old but they use to be pretty good. so whats changed I wonder ?

Rita

Morning all, the weather's a bit iffy today, not sure what it's going to do.

Hi Lady, you seem to have got yourself sorted now, nice to have you back.

Rita, you must be feeling better, that sounds more like you - ready and waiting to tackle the manager when she comes back.

Hope it goes well today Jean, have they told you if it's working yet? It would give you a bit of encouragement if they let you know it was working.

Marilyn, have your grandchildren eaten all the biscuits?



Edit: my post disappeared again, had to type it all out twice - so I didn't see that Linda was here.

Glad you had a good day yesterday Linda, would you like to go again? I'm not offering by the way...........lol.
I was just wondering if it was something you'd do again.

Morning everyone
I have been up a while but busy with the family tree, helping my sister add her info to FTM. She's had it ages, but only just started using it.

The spa day was lovely. Very relaxing. Massage helped a lot but I still have a stiff shoulder, think its tendonitis ???

Welcome back Lady.

Rita you only want those guys back when it's dry so they have to strip to the waist when the sun shines !!!

Hope today goes well Jean you are getting on well as Marilyn said.

Off now to do the ironing before hubby gets back. Can't do any washing as it is very wet here

Linda :O) XxX

Morning Jean....and All.


Just got up !!

Jean hope you get on OK today.wish I could go with you for a chat in that waiting area, it can be daunting waiting your turn cant it ? Never mind your nearly half way there. x

Nothing much on BB Mo is there haven't heard Shelly talk about it lately I think she must still be up my tree !! LOL

I haven't seen a pics of Elizabeth YET !! come on Elizabeth we are all waiting.....
Wonders whether Lady will send us one of herself ?

Rita hows you today?

Think I'll make the Tea & Coffee.

(_)?(_)?(_)?(_)? (_)? (_)? [_]/ [_]/ too early for bics as I have not been shopping yet.
EDIT...
Oh Rita you were typing as I was ..LOL

Moning All welcome back lady.
Yvonne thank you for the photos of you and your husband it is very nice. my sister lived in new York for 11 years she married Tony who was born in Manhatten and when he came out of the froces they went back to new York. she also lived in New Jersey and Italy. so she has been about.

Thought this might give you all a laugh. it has been raining heavily all night long the car park is flooded and it is still raining. good I thought ? the garden is fresh now and more flowers will appear. it is nice and clear as the windows are all clean due to the rain.
15 minutes ago the window cleaners appeared. yes they are cleaning the windows with their hose in the rain. I cannot think why they chose now in the rain. ? why dont they go away and come back another day when it is not raining and the windows need doing ? need I ask.

Also on Frioday I saw two doctors looking for house numbers in these flats they run as follows 8 in first t block then there are five one bedroomed bunglaows.then another block of 8 flats. and then a block of 4 which I am in. to see these numbers you need to go into the entrance to read them on the bells. so if there is an emergency car or ambulance or fire engine called they have to run around looking for the flat.

Must be four years ago I asked for the numbers to be put on the side of the blocks so people did not have to do this. last year I was told after keep on at the trust it was in the pipeline. what pipe line it is still not done.

Our Estate Manager is still away on holiday in Poland where she was born(.10 days now. she has been there )so I have to wait till she comes home to do anything about it.

so girls you can see I am getting better up and ready for action LOL


Love Rita

Morning everyone, hope today will be a good one for you.

Hi Lady good to see you back. My son in law pays my account for me coz I don't have a credit card, and then I give him the money.
Have you seen that we have now got two new friendlies on here. Jean and Stephen.
The rest of us are still the same gas bags we have always been. LOL

Jean did you also listen to," Listen with Mother" on the radio. Well I think that was what it was called. I know our Rita will be able to confirm this.
