Find Ancestors

Good morning and thank you Gins.....yes, the Marmite was delicious :-D


It's is very quiet, dry and sunny here this morning......it's almost uncanny. I have to say though, that we have been virtually unaffected by the storms compared to those poor folk down South. :-(


It is bin collection day, and it's interesting to see how few people have actually put their bins out - for fear of them blowing over. We haven't bothered for the same reason and they aren't anywhere near full anyway.

I opened the blinds to find that we have a couple of roof tiles smashed onto the ground and yes Gins.....before you say it....you always knew I was a slate loose!! :-D


Charity shop drop off and then some food shopping today and then back to continue with the Year Book for you-know-where.

Quick browse and I am off....~~~

Thank you Ginns <3

I think I will try a bit of marmite on those lovely cheese toasties then I am going to have a toasted teacake, oozing with butter. ;-) :-D :-D

That was SO nice that I think I will have it all over again :-D :-D :-D

Mornin all~~~~~~~~

The wind has calmed down, thank goodness. Looks really bad down south :-(

Kettle is on, crumpets, toasted teacakes and some cheese toasties almost ready

Lots of butter, marmite and peanut butter too :-D

JB has good taste....Marmite on toast is delicious! :-D


Just watching the news....it's horrific......and it's heartbreaking to see the homes filled with dirty water. :-(


Stay safe my friends.......xxx

Good for him !!!

Nite nites ,

Dea Xxx

JB is still not well but is much better

I found something he could eat...............Marmite on wholemeal toast :-)

He's had 4 slices, the most he's eaten in 6 days

Ah, OK......you should know ;-)

The heating radiator was invented by Franz San Galli, a Prussian-born Russian businessman living in St. Petersburg, between 1855–1857.

but the Romans were the first to use a form of central heating :-)

Gins didn't they have radiators in your school

Yes but only in high school!

It's buddy windy here, keep expecting the roof to come off, after the windows have blown out of course!

Thanks Linds - 'He' seems to manage to get some sleep but it's me who is kept awake !!! I will chop his legs off if he keeps it up !! ;-) :-|

Hello everyone,

Snow, rain and wet snow :-|

Cold and just heard the trains to London have been cancelled due to high winds.

Thank goodness it is next week we are going to London hopefully the weather will have settled a bit by then.

Those poor people are still not getting enough help.

Gins didn't they have radiators in your school ;-)

We had the GD's today poor O had her parents up again the past two nights saying her ear was sore.

Another trip to the surgery with her today and yes her ear is still inflamed but don't want to give her more antibiotics. Just keep giving her the paracetamol and the Nur**en and if still complaining next week get them checked again.

The poor little mite said her legs and arms were sore. Dr thinks it is a virus with flu like symptoms.

Dea I have this vision of you being blown away lucky that gentleman was there <3

Hope your OH's knee improves soon and you both get a sleep

Sylvia glad you are feeling better it takes a while to get over that bug <3

Don't worry - I was hungry so I scoffed the lot !! ;-) :-D

Cynthia, you couldn't let your OH out for a walk here - I had to go for a blood test earlier and as I walked round the corner to go to the surgery entrance the wind hit me and I had to stand still and push against it as I couldn't move forwards. Thankfully a rather large gentleman came behind me and stopped me from being blown over !! :-0 :-( :-( I was very glad to get home !

It is blowing at about 40 miles per hour here and I know that in many other places it is approaching 100 mph so I don't know how they are coping ! :-(

Off to cook hubby some tea - see you all later,

Dea Xxx

I missed this morning too

Cyns.......YOU lose your cool, NEVER

Dear oh dear.....had a meeting this morning and was rushing round......fried bread too....... :-(


It was one of those autism meetings where you realise why things never get done! Talk talk and more talk........changes changes and more changes......meetings meetings and more meetings. Sheeeeeeesh......I was on the point of losing my cool. So much talk and so little action. Grrrrrrrrrr.


Awful weather but nothing like the weather the poor folks in the south are experiencing. Had a brief hour of sunshine, so I tipped OH out for his walk :-D


Since then, have been trying to collate a year book for you-know-where. :-S

Looks like nobody was hungry this morning.

Good morning all :-)

Boiled eggs and toast soldiers today folks.

Couldn't resist doing some bacon butties and some fried bread too :-)

Sounds like you had a good day Cynthia !

See you all later,

Dea x

Rads.....Jonesey had a fire

Anyone watching BMDs?

Gins?

Radiators?

Er.......they were invented before Jonesey was born!!

Surely you must have seen the cast iron ones in old churches......the Victorian radiators where the heat also comes up through cast iron gratings in the floor?????

Or the cumbersome/bulky type in old houses?



Moving on....:-S


Sounds as though you still need to take things easy for a while Sylvs....that bug has certainly knocked the stuffing out of you!! A shame about it being on the ward Linds.....hope they get clear of it very soon.


Dea, I think you can buy special knee pads for night time wear...just wondered if they would help your OH. Knee pain is horrible.


Went to return a jacket for my daughter today and OH ended up buying a new one for himself...and a pullover!! Wonders will never cease. :-D


Then I had a nice chatty lunch with a friend and rounded off the afternoon by picking up the grandchildren from school :-D

Nice day all round... :-D

OOOerrr ! - does he REALLY want you to stop breathing Sylvia ??? :-0

I do know what he means though - hubby has a 'poorly knee' - he had an op on it many years ago and it troubles him in the winter when it's cold or when he can't use his trolley on the golf course because it is too wett !!! (Poor thing has to carry his clubs and that makes his knee ache ;-) :-( :-( )

Anyway, he has been tossing and turning in the night and then by early morning I can tell his knee is aching because his breathing changes somehow and you get all these sort of sighs and I can't sleep when that is going on !!!

He won't take any medication but I am thinking of crushing a couple of ibuprofen into his bedtime drink so that I can gat some sleep ;-) :-D :-D
