My advice to James is as he does not like our thread why doent he start one of his own then he will be able to chat to his hearts content about foot ball and cricket and mens things he must be bored otherwise he would not have scrolled through this thread. poor soul .
Merry Christmas James if you dare look at us again

Rita,

What have you done with James ?? he could have helped you out on your scanning ..LOL

Now serious..... Pauline will be your teacher on scanning of your photo, ask her I'm sure its her simplicity of explaining that you will understand.
Other wise hubby is good but he's talks over the top of my head and confuses me .

I'm at my sons house trying to get on my putter ...kids are quite good at taking over while I go out of the room !

I have been up since 7 but this is the first time I could get on to Friendly thread.
It is still black ice out I am in the middle of doing my washing so have to pop along to our laundry room to put the washing in the machine and back to take it out and put it into the dryer back again to take it out so you see I am tooing and Frooing this morning.
someone put some salt down on the path this morning so it is a bit easier to walk on the path.
I watched" Cranford "last night on TV one of my favourite drama's did anyone else watch that ? the next part is next Sunday. it is a special for Christmas.
I looked through the TV times for Christmas to see what films were on an d they are as old as me if not older. why dont they put something different on for a change. I think they forget a lot of people especially elderly have to spend Christmas on their own.

Hi everybody.

Sue, my brain doesn't seem to be working this morning, I don't recognise the word you called James. Can I have a clue please? Put another couple of letters in it.

Glad to hear the horse is doing OK.

Rita, I'll send you a pm when I can think of an easy way to explain.

It's absolutely freezing, my son's helper said she couldn't move her car this morning because her tyres had frozen to the road.

He's not around anymore ....pity as we have so much to say to him.

This is for James......
Got two certificates today, and now my genealogy is in leaps & bounds . I'm so excited I can now add them to my tree !!

pauline thank you for the details of how I can send attachments I have printed it out but I told you I am a big duffy so I will have t read a few times to try it out. I dont feel very brave at the moment to try. I am tired as well I have done two large loads of washing and had three callers as well I need a strong cup of tea now and a rest.
Thanks Pauline I sppreciate that help.

Also Sue where are you? looking at the pictures of your horse I wanted to ask you three things. how old is he ? how many hands high ? and what is his name :he looks really lovely my friend is coming tomorrow morning for a cup of tea and I cannot wait to show her the pictures she loves horses. I bet she will love this one.

Just had two christmas cards from people I didnt send one too what now ? do I send them and say sorry or not botheror just send them. I also got a large letter from the council about the change in Council works so dont know what that is about I will have o read that as well.I did get a nice card from my Nephew from Washington in America he has thick snow out there he reconds it s the worse he has seen .he was born out there .he is due in England for Christmas on 23rd flying BA and he is also going to Italy five days aftewards and is booked with BA for that before coming back to England and flying home to America what are his chances I wonder of making all the flights.
