Oh right Mel, It should do the trick by tomorrow morning,if not, I soak some cotton wool in the 'C' and apply it to the affected spot. (my dentist's suggestion) and that certainly gives relief. Do hope it clears up soon, nothing worse than painful teeth/gums.

We just had a thunder storm with only a little rain.

Oh has just past me the bottle of HIghland Park!!

A couple of shots of that Mel and hopefully you will sleep well and not feel a thing :-D
I am on the edge of my seat now watching the diving !!!! I'm desperate to go to bed ,but not long to go .
I'll see you all in the morning.Night Night xx

Hi all,

Had a good time at the festival, not seen so many people in the village. The police put no parking signs everywhere, The local farmer opened up two fields as car parks. They were packed.

We tried to walk down the tow path, but with so ma ny pushchairs and people we couldn't move ,so turned back. Will try again tomorrow, when there may be less people.

I see the thread has been busy as usual, will catch up tomorrow.

Morning everyone, Evening Kim,

Lovely bright morning here , should be a nice day ,we've nothing planed today ,just a lazy day i think.

Mel, hope that gum of yours is a little better today ,did the tot or two of whisky help?

More medals last night ,we've done really well, for some one who is not that interested in to much sport i can say i have enjoyed watching it all, i'am looking forward to seeing the closing ceremony tonight , if its as good as the opening night it should be worth watching .

Coffee time i think, catch you later you sleepy heads :-D :-D

Morning /Evening All

Glad it was a great day yesterday Frank.Hopefully it will be just as good today :-D
The sun is coming out now and it is another nice day.Looks like we will stay dry all day.I just hope London is dry this evening for the closing ceremony.
Chester not looking too lively so I think Chris will just take him around the back field.

I am off for my shower and hairwash now,and then I will look at the ironing pile :-S

Mel I hope your Gum is easier this morning and that you slept well after the Whisky.

Kim I hope Miranda came home in a reasonable state after her evening out.
Pat will almost be at the end of her holiday now.I bet little Mocha has missed her.

BBL

Oh morning Jane :-D :-D posted at the same time :-D

Morning All and Evening Kim,

Not a bad morning here after yesterdays thunder and lightening. I went to bed at 11.30pm last night and thats early for me. Slept till just before 7am and got up for a wee and went back to bed. Woke at just before 10am!! so I had a really good sleep. Not much pressure on the front tooth this morning but still a lump at the front of the roof of my mouth. Teeth have closed up a bit too and don't feel quite so weird. I think the whisky did the trick and I only had a small one but kept swilling it around the area well before swollowing it.

That's good then Mel.It sounds like it going down now.You just to be careful now not to bite on anything too hard for a while.

Mandy are you just having a chilled day today then? It feels very warm and sticky now,plus dusty as they are harvesting the Oil Seed Rape in the field across the road.I have had to shut the windows in the front.I'm still looking at the ironing pile :-S
Chris asked just now where all his shirts are!I think that was supposed to be a big hint lol

It seemed a lot of men in the Marathon were having problems with exhaustion just now,flopping and wobbling all over the place at the end.
I was very disappointed last night not to actually see Tom Daley receive his Bronze Medal.I waited up for it :-S
Looking forward to this evenings show and seeing all the Athletes together again.
Well done Great Britain I say for hosting a spectacular Olympics.I know it has cost us an obscene amount of money,but as long as the different venues etc are used properly after it has all finished and that the government stops selling off all the playing fields and encourages youngsters to get involved in sport then I will be pleased.I remember when I went to Canada it seemed that every young person would be involved in some type of sport.I felt it really put our country to shame.

I think that is enough political speak from me now lol
I hope everyone is having a good day :-D

Yes just been chilling out today , had lunch outside ,then read my book for a while ,and sat watching the fluffy clouds drifting over .

Mel, glad to hear the whisky did the trick :-D think it must have helped you to sleep too :-D

Well i think i might wander outside again and have another read :-D what a lazy thing i am today :-D

Mandy ,there's nothing wrong with being a little lazy on a Sunday Afternoon......was that a title of the Kinks record "Lazing on a Sunday afternoon'??
I have been just the same.Jess and I have been sat out having long chats about this that and the other.She said it is nice that she never sees me and Chris argue!!!! Bless her .I did put her right and said we do have our moments but they are not loud shouty arguments.I think her Mum and step dad have humdingers :-S

Now I love my little Robins.But one of them has just pooped in my wash basket and on one of Jame's tops.I have rinsed the top and Chris is just hosing out the basket lol
Dirty Birdies :-S

Jane it is actually Sunny Afternoon by the Kinks from 1969 the year my son was born.

The tax man's taken all my dough,
And left me in my stately home,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
And I can't sail my yacht,
He's taken everything I've got,
All I've gots this sunny afternoon.

Save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

My girlfriends run off with my car,
And gone back to her ma and pa,
Telling tales of drunkenness and cruelty.
Now I'm sitting here,
Sipping at my ice cold beer,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.

Help me, help me, help me sail away,
Well give me two good reasons why I ought'a stay.
cause I love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime

Ah, save me, save me, save me from this squeeze.
I got a big fat mama trying to break me.
And I love to live so pleasantly,
Live this life of luxury,
Lazing on a sunny afternoon.
In the summertime
In the summertime
In the summertime



I did laugh about the robin popping in your linen basket. Thats the kind of thing that usually happens to me, or they aim for things hanging on the line!! :-|

Awh ! thanks Mel
I am now singing it lol So my Lazing on a Sunday afternoon is actually
Lazing on a SUNNY afternoon :-D All these years I have been singing the wrong words :-S :-S..I think I will to have a little google and get it on You Tube :-D

JUST A WEE POP IN TO SAY WELL DONE IN THE GAMES--------

MEL I HAD A SWELLING IN MY GUM NOT AS BAD AS YOUR'S --CAUSED BY A
SEED FROM THE GRAIN BREAD--GOT UP UNDER THE GUM-MANAGED TO FLUSH & BRUSH IT DOWN AND OUT----

ANN WHAT PIC WAS IN THE PAPER?? --AND THE BITES DAB THEM WITH VINEGAR--

T.G. WE HAD SOME RAIN LAST NIGHT --GROUND HAS JUST SOAKED IT UP LIKE A SPONGE--BUT WE DO HAVE GREEN AGAIN <3

Oh I love the Kinks, think I have that on an LP somewhere. I think we've all found we've been singing the wrong words to a song for years at some time Jane!

Mel, it looks like your tooth is getting better, fingers crossed. Maybe another dram tonight to make sure? I have to be in bed by 9.30pm most nights, then as soon as I'm there I can't sleep for ages even though I'm tired. :-S Mind you today I feel exhausted and only managed a bit of watering outside. Perhaps it's this stuffy heat we have here today, but I think it may be the hay fever tablets making me drowsy. My bites are like red blistery 5 pences now, very raised and hot and they itch like mad. Every time OH drops his hand on my shoulder he gets told off as I've plastered them in bite cream too and don't want it sticking to my top. :-S I think it will be an early night for me, so I may be watching the Spice Girls in bed.

Frank, it sounds like the Festival is a big success.........I was wondering where people would park.

I will send you the pic Shirl.......and try the vinegar treatment!!!!

Who the lady in red?

If you mean the pic David? It's me aged 17 or 18 in mum and dad's back garden.

Ann it sounds like you are really allergic to those bites for them to be as big as that :-S
I remember you having something similar (maybe last year)?My Niece has had to hospitalised with bites when was on holiday abroad .She always gets a terrible reaction and ends up with Intravenous antibiotics :-S :-S

I am desperately trying to keep myself awake for the closing ceremony ,plus really hoping to see some shooting stars later.But I think we are going to have too much cloud to see anything.James is working in the summerhouse ,so I have said to Jess if she hears little snores coming from the settee ,to wake me up.Mind you it may also be Chester snoring too lol.Not that he will be interested in the ceremony or shooting stars :-S

You're an attractive woman :-)
