Morning Mel /Evening Kim
Mel we have a lovely sunny morning.Did the walk in just a strappy top(well I did wear trousers too lol)
I need to go and look at wallpaper for the kitchen .Trouble is there are only a couple of places in Kettering so I think it will be looking further afield on Saturday.

Crikey Mel 42EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.Sounds big enough for a couple of watermelons :-D :-D

Is the E the breast measurement and the 42 the chest size.?
Seriously I never quite understopod that.
I shopped for Ellen's 38B before but that size no longer fits her.
Ive to treat her to Sadie the Bra Lady's tailor made,but she's not having it.
Ive noticed on TV they're advertising a 4 way stretch bra without hooks.
Put it on over the head but I'd imagine it would be a struggle to take it off.

Glad to see our Frank back safe and sound, you certainly packed a lot in in spite of the weather.

Well done to Hannah, what a confidence boost for her, sounds like that move to London was the best thing she did, job wise and romance wise too. :-D

It's good that Gordon is interested in doing something with his spare time Ann a lot of men just mope around the house getting under your feet.

Spent the day with daughter yesterday, went with her to pick up her dress, she has lost so much weight, all the stress and running around with wedding plans, but the shop was brilliant took it in and it was ready within the hour and I've been shown how to dress her, as if I didn't know, but it laces at the back so not as easy as it looked. All sorted now, have the hairdressers in the morning then we are off midday, weather, dare I say, doesn't look too bad, at least it's not showing rain now.

Still haven't got any so can someone send me Pat's and Mel's pics please.
:-(

I now have a video of our drains!!!! :-S :-S lol. It seems that all the problems we have had with the en suite tiolet are because the bathroom fitters pushed the shower waste too far across the inside of the toilet waste so it blocks off half the hole!! No wonder it has been a pain. I shall be taking the video to show the people who fitted it 6 years ago as, by rights I think they should put it right!! It costs £60 to have it unblocked each time.

Maureen I bet your daughter will look beautiful in her dress. I bet she wouldn't have been happy if they'd have had to let it out. I hope those shoes of yours have a bit of 'give' now and fingers crossed for a rainfree day and a bit of sun for the photos.......really looking forward to seeing you and your daughter!

Mel, sounds like you were in 'spending'mood! I like some of those Rega*ta jackets myself. Those bras really were hanging baskets as our Mandy would say!! lol

Did a bit in the garden this morning as my back is much better. Tempted to stay out longer, but thought I might pay for it if I did so came in.

Better do a bit of HW now.........a woman's work is never done. :-| :-|

Afternoon all,
Just back from doing my HOUR for traffic survey. You wouldn't believe the amount of traffic that goes through our village. Even with the by-pass. Like a fool I have offered to do 2 pm to 3 pm and 4 pm to 5 pm tomorrow. Weather forcast is terrible for tomorrow

I had a call from Tesc# this morning, wanting more details of the incident of what happened yesterday in the Northampton Branch. She was very concerned and promised to get to the bottom of it, and write to me.

I had better tell you what happened :- Ros and I went grocery shopping mid afternoon yesterday. After tramping around with two trolly's we made for the checkout. Ros remembered we haden't got fresh cream. I sent her on her way and went to get the cream. When I got back to the checkouts Ros was walking up the line of checkouts, When I asked why she haden't found a checkout, she told me. A young employee had BARRED HER FROM GOING TO THE CHECKOUT as he had reserved it for a woman Who happened to be younger than both of us, and in far better health. I went to find him, and asked him who gave him permission to save a checkout for this woman, he had no explaination for his actions I tore into him with a good tongue lashing. Half the store heard me, as did a manageress. who came to investigate,When I explained what he had done, she sent him to her office, by this time I was so IRATE. and promised to take this further. Which I did when we got home. My complaint was so long, I ran out of space allowed to type my complaint !!!! GOOD OLD ME !!!

Ros is still in the garden, planting out all the bedding plants, and weeding the borders.

So pleased for Hannah, Where does she get the brains from ???? CHRIS I expect :-D :-D :-D

Pleased that everyone is O.K. What a bust size MEL.

Davind Don't ask me questions about size. Provided I can get my hands round them (thats fine by me) :-0 :-0 :-0 SORRY GIRLS.

Roast lamb, mint sauce, jersey royals, new carrots, broc. brussels. Won't go hungry.

MORNING /AFTERNOON -ONE AND ALL-------------

WELL DONE HANNAH-IT'S ALL A NEW START FOR HER ;-)
AND JAMES IS ON HIS WAY TOO---

FRANK NICE TO HAVE YOU BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN ;-) ;-) WE HAVE MISSED OUR DAILY JOKES :-D
GOOD PIC OF YOU AND CONRAD WAS THAT A PUB?

DON'T LAUGH ANN---I HAVE PICKED POT FROM 8.00AM-TILL 4,00PM
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, FOR TWO WEEK EVERY YEAR WAS HARD WORK--MADE 12 SHILLINGS A DAY. :-|

FIONA THIS IS AT LEAST THE BEST TIME FOR SOPHIE TO GET HER GLASSES---NO PEAR PRESSURE JUST A FEELING OF BEING SPECIAL.----

MAUREEN COUNT DOWN----THE VERY BEST OF LUCK THAT ALL GOES WELL WITH OUT A HITCH <3 <3

MEL--I THOUGHT MY 42D WAS BIG --BUT YOU COULD USE THAT ONE FOR SKY DIVING ;-) ;-)

MANDY THATS THE BEST THING FOR DIL AND BABY.

I had ordered two 38E's.

Done some ironing but it is still raining and there is also a cold wind today. Hav'nt been out much as it is cold.

Wanted to put my bean plants in my tall planter today before they get too long and tangled. The ones in the tunnel are well up their canes and nearly to the top.

Ann I have sent you some pics.

I've been hobbling around all day in these shoes with a thick pair of socks, think it might have done the trick so I'm giving my poor old feet a treat, got the foot spa out to give them a good soak.

Won't be back on now until after the weekend so hope everyone has a great weekend. Keep all your fingers crossed the rain holds off.

Thanks for the photos Pat, Mocha is still so cute, very bright eyed and alert. You have done wonders with your aquarium, it takes time to get it just right.

Evening everyone,

Goodness lots of posts to catch up with when you miss a day !!

Well done to Hannah , another feather in her cap :-D really pleased for her .

No photo's here either from Pat and Mel ,could someone pass them on please .

Thanks for the photo Frank, who is that good looking chap on the left :-D :-D
Bit naughty that young man saving a checkout , bet he was given a talking too !!

Ann, that bra's more like a Boulder Holder than a hanging basket :-D :-D
What a to do with the drains !! i think they should pay ,its nothing you have done after all, and you have the film to prove it !!

Maureen will be gone now ,i hope the sun shines for them , does anyone know what time the wedding is ?

I have a sore throat !! and have felt really tired all day , so think it will be any early night for me tonight , Katie has a cold ,so i might have got it from her .

Goodness looks like there's a bad storm going to hit the southwest and Wales tomorrow !! a months rain in one day !!

Thanks for the pics of your pond Mel.....another fantastic job! I will send them on to you Mandy. Sorry you have a sore throat....Miss Katie been giving you too many of her kisses! :-D I like that....'boulder holders'........I've been one this morning.ng.

Could someone send me Pat's pics, still haven't got those.

Shirl, I thought it sounded like the voice of experience! lol. I don't know how you managed it for all those hours.

Frank, some of the things they do annoy me too. They let people with trolleys go in the basket queue, yet if I try, even with only a basket ful of goods in the trolley I get told it is 'baskets only'!! Can't win, can you. That was really poor saving spaces for people though.....I bet he won't do that again. Another thing that bugs me (see you've got me on a roll now!) at our Sain*burys is all the car wash people that hang about in the carpark getting in the way and pestering you to wash your car before you've even got a leg out of the door! One day when we got back to OH's car, 3 of them were squatted down between the cars having a sneaky fag!! (don't think they are allowed!)

Poor old Jane has lost the internet while her OH and son try to sort out the new router and she asked me to let you all know. They still haven't had dinner yet as they are still trying to fix things. She said it's not going well!

I'm off to bed now, quite weary and I have to be up early tomorrow to meet a friend for brekkie at a garden centre!! :-D :-D

What a dreadful dark week of rain its been and so windy.

Sorry to read of that unpleasant incident at T£sco Frank.
I hope you both get an unreserved apology in writing.

I regularly use their Kingston Park branch.Its massive.Good in general,but there's always some bugger pushing their carts with eys wide shut.Causes collisions at the ends of the aisles.

More than once I have suggested to them that they suspend convex mirrors from the ceiling at the end of each aisle.
That way you would be able to see around corners.

Hi I got my foot better and now have a very painful stiff neck on one side it is very painful. Beryls formed a group choir at her local pub with her three daughters they have called themselves the singing tomcats ha ha lol

So glad you had a nice holiday Frank cannot get the page to read about it.
maybe later.
Well my hubby I should not moan about he did appreciate his crossword book when he saw it for our aniversary and he booked a holiday in Ireland for the 1st of September to Donagal for six days. We go to Dublin
and Ellenskillin thats where there was a bomb went off many years ago.
Anyway it was a lovely surprise. It is for myself and Michelle By coach.

Maureen when is your wedding.

David I have got one of those pull on bras they come off very easily
i find it is really nice to wear.

Well done Hannah.
KIM how are you have a nice time when you wake,
I will try and get my facebook going again now the mad in laws have stopped being so vindictive.
We will not be going to the states this year or next we simply cannot afford to go. Nite Nite all.

Just a quickie now on the old router.
Hi Shiela.Did you wake up with a crick in your neck?Good luck to the Singing Tomcats :-D :-D
Can't stop as OH wants to get on and try the new Router again.

Night Night x
I may or may not be back on in the morning :-S Heaven knows how long it will take to get the new Router up and running properly .

I hope all goes well for Maureen and her feet at the wedding :-D

Morning/evening,

Windy and wet and oh has just asked me to cut his hair so I shall be back later.

First this morning, Where are you all ???

The boiler wouldn't fire up this morning. Had to climb into the loft to see what was up. The programme was flashing "H 9" then "L 9". I rang the plumber while I was in the loft (thank god for modern phones) I could never have got down and up again. It turns out it's the Printed Circuit Board. The cost fitted is £350.00. (MORE EXPENCE) I need it like a hole in the head, after the expence of the holiday. !!!

All the little faces have dissapeared. Where have they gone ???

Another 14 jokes on my E-mail this morning, but I can't open them yet. Will forward when I can.
