Morning Fiona and all,

I have been working on family tree for the last 2 hours. I had a contact with someof my family on it and have been looking at her tree. Still think she has some things wrong though!!

Fiona I watched the weather forcast last night and thought you may be in for more snow. Bet you are fedup with it by now. Good to know your new pooter is on the way at last.

We have only had one portion each of the cake so far!! so it is still 3 to go each!! I know it was naughty but at 2.99 I could'nt resist it.

Beautifulday here Fiona!!! lots of blue sky and sunshine. Took Millie a really lovely walk along the river and round the 'end' field, felt a load better. Shall be really glad when the next few weeks are over and done with!!! Hoovered upstairs, swept and washed kitchen floor. 'Waking the Dead' was VERY spooky, had to firmly switch OFF from it while going to sleep!!!

So much for me getting jobs done.Our young friend in Dubai rang for a 'chat'
She is now about 28 weeks pregnant.Must have been on the phone for a good hour and a half !.She wants to have a visit back here but is not allowed to fly so she has to wait until after the baby is born.I do feel sorry for her as she has no family out there other than her hubby and I think she is feeling a bit homesick.

They say it is the warmest day of the year with 16 deg in Southampton.It doesn't feel very warm here,although the fog seems to have lifted.

Fitz has gone to Venice for a week and the forecast is heavy rain today,tomorrow and thursday !!.I am sure he will still manage to enjoy himself lol

Must go and get ready for my appointment.Chris has just arrived home to come with me.I said to make sure he takes his Kindle otherwise he will be really bored just sat waiting .
Back later..........13 39

Jane, I hope all went well with your eye appointment. I'm sure that they were able to reassure you and recommend a course of 'action'! Lovely afternoon here, am going to sit on the garden seat and get some 'rays'!! Japan seems to get more awful and worrying by the minute. Those POOR people, makes ones own troubles pale into insignificance.

I can't tell you how relieved Mandy.So now I won't need to think about it again until after Xmas.It was worth going private as I would have worried waiting until the NHS appointment in June.My friends Hubby is in that hospital tonight after having an op on his bottom.£2,500 !One nights stay.

I wonder how long we will all have to push and pant for this little baby who will soon be here.I never had to push with my 2 as I had C Sections with both.Easy lol

Jane , What a relief about your eyes, that's really brilliant, that's one worry out of the way!!! watching the news, and it's SO uncheerful. What with Japan,Libya and Bahrain, it really is awful.
