Hi Linda :-)

Roger if its a boy

Flo if its a girl

Well Mersey,

As I explained they don't actually belong to me, but should I end up with biceps like Popeye in record time then I'll see what I can do

:-)

My emoticons keep misplacing themselves

We can have a competition to name the parrot. If it is a male, I assume Polly is out

I hope you have one of those gel cushions which stop pressure sores

Can I borrow your dumbbells Tec :-D :-D :-D

The parrots name ?Well they didn't say, so I thought the thread might like to name it. I think it may be male :-D

I spend my life in this wheelchair because there is only one chair in this room and that is occupied by the elderly man who is in the other bed. He never speaks. I think the poor soul may be a stroke victim.
I have lots of comfortable chairs at home.

It sounds cute, does he or she have a name yet?

No wonder you are tired, sitting in a wheel chair for all that time, they are not the most comfortable things

Hello Linda,

I won't be late in going to bed tonight, I'm still in quite a bit of pain from todays exploits.

The parrot..........well it's pink and blue with polka dot trousers and a red velvet jacket. Speaks in a foreign tongue with identifiable expletives thrown in. :-D

Hello everyone

You will need to be tucked up early tonight Tec. Never mind the leg, I want to hear about the parrot.

Mersey, Tec was a seaman you know, he has arms like Popeye :-D

Please keep your snow over there Sylvia, the spring is just springing here so we don't want to spoil it

Good Evening Mersey Pink Lady :-D

I'm afraid you will have to build yourself up in order to keep up with me. I've been presented with a pair of dumb bells to build my arms and biceps up so that I can fly along in the wheelchair.
Strangely, the dumb bells are pink, as they originally belonged to a lady, so I guess you would like them, but you can't have them as they are on loan to me.

Coooeeeeeeee Loverlies :-D <3

Hi Tec glad everything went well today, now if you are having to build yourself does that mean I have to ??? im getting a little worried if you have upper body strength and I dont :-S :-S ;-) <3

Hello Sylvia,

I am allowed to sit up in the ambulance, in fact I was able to stay in my wheelchair as there is a facility to anchor it to the floor of the ambulance.

Surprising how much more you can see from sitting higher up than in a car. I have done that journey hundreds of times, but saw houses, farms and things I've never seen before. Plus not having to concentrate on driving.

I hope the snow doesn't turn into something serious
:-0

Hi Sue, and everyone


Tec ............... that was a long day for you. But I'm glad the ambulance was more comfortable! Were you allowed to sit up in it, or did they make you lie down??



It's still snowing here ............. and the weather forecasters have just "amended" the forecast for today.

They originally said that "light snow will end about noon and be replaced by rain"

the new forecast ............

....... "heavy snow all day, stopping about nightfall, temperature staying at 0C, and accumulations of 10-30cm in the Metro area"


we've had about 2½ cm in the last 2 hours, for an accumulation so far of about 9 cm :-O




Apparently, the cold wind blowing out from the north east has not changed direction




Don't you like it when meteorologists have to apologise for their wrong forecasts?
:-D



take care everyone

Hello,

Well I had a very tiring day. A two and a half hour journey each way, and the physio almost killed me off. Had a lengthy interview with the doctor.
I have to go back in four weeks, and meantime have to concentrate of building myself up again to replace some of the weight I lost
Also have to see physio here to continue exercises they did today. It could be six months before I actually get an artificial leg.

Still, it was nice to have a ride out in the sunshine, and see the Spring lambs begin to fill the fields. I was amazed to see how many trees were damaged in the storms. There will be no shortage of logs for the fires for years.
I went in an ambulance, but it was much better than the thing that brought me from Shrewsbury last week.

Linda - Why is Sue being rude to you? have you been nasty to her? surely not.

I only asked, some people are just so touchy :-|

I hope Tec vetted his parrot carefully and hasn't got one prone to swearing

No I didn't Linda :-P :-P

Just dragging the thread up, I hope Tec is having a comfortable journey

Did you find any plants to buy on your day out Sue?

Good luck tomorrow, Tec xxxx

Good day Sue

OH is now watching football, so I will disappear as well, goodnight Mersy

Perhaps he is Linda :-D

Goodnight Tec - hope tomorrow isn't too exhausting for you <3

I'm signing off too ladies as I haven't done very much other than make the bed.

Goodnight - sweet dreams <3 <3
