Hello everyone - what a job I've had getting onto the site. I usually stay logged in but I had to log in this morning - it took me ages.

I won't be on for too long this morning as I have a meeting to go to :-( I've seen the agenda and it's boring.

A jack Russell on both ankles would be worse Linda, so I should be pleased about that :-D

I thought the saying was "Dog-Eared" Dog-Ankled?!! :-( :-(

Joking aside- it must be awful Tec, I'm so sorry. I've had a bad night too. Nothing unusual about that! Everything seems much worse since the Physio attacked me!! :-D :-S

What are you two going on about?

I didn't say I still wear school uniform - :-(

The fishnet tights are replaced every three years Jemima, unless I cath them in the undergrowth when bird watching

I will try that Jemima,

In answer to your earlier question - I had a good day, did some ironing, sorted out some books for the charity shop tomorrow. Polished a table.
and the usual boring things, like sorting out meals etc.

The ulcer is very sore now - imagine walking about with a jack Russell attached to your ankle by its teeth - that just about sums it up :-\

Never mind there are worse things I suppose :-D

That's taking an economy drive a bit far Tec? How old ARE your fish-net tights exactly?
:-S :-D

A nuicance is slightly more annoying than a nuisance of course!!! :-D :-D :-D

Someone at GR is on the happy juice I think :-D

I have worked out how to get round this annoying nuicance Tec-
If you get the Error page, your post has still gone through. If you press the back button then duplicate your page. Go to your threads and click on to the thread and you will see your post!!!!!! :-S
Or put duplicate pages up for the ready!!! :-D

This is weird, the posts are all in the wrong order, they don't make sense.

I haven't had any happy juice honestly

School uniform is very expensive now - I wonder how some parents can afford it, particularly if they have more than one child at the school.

I had a maroon blazer, maroon tie with silver stripes, grey trousers, and a maroon cap with a tassel on top :-D white shirt.

The cap was only ever put on when in sight of the school. It was usually stuffed into our pockets :-D

What is going on here?

I posted and hit submit button ONCE - waited several minutes before anything happened, then got error page :-|

Errol Sheep/Pig has put up a good post about these problems tonight, but I think it would be better sent direct to GR

Why are you in bare feet Linda- are you doing your Sandie Shaw impersonation again!! :-D :-D :-D

Hi Tec and Linda :-) :-)
How are you both. Hope you have had a good day both of you!
How are your ulcers today Tec?

I'm worn out- Spent all afternoon with Grandson 1 buying school uniform, school shoes etc!! :-| :-S
He's going into year 10 (the start of the GCSE years) which is the same as the old Form 4 of my day. Instead of the lovely fresh white polo shirts that they had to wear in the first 3 years, they now have to wear a maroon coloured one for years 10 and 11. It's not a very nice colour- browny, purply, red! :-|
