Good news,

The installation engineer has finished his work and the house radiators are now starting to warm up. Hopefully I will be back dressed in just my skivvies by the end of the day. :-D

I expect that our Linds has 'been done' by now - I bet she enjoyed that lovely sandwich ! :-)

Dea :-D :-D

OOhh Cynthia - you had me worried there :-0 I had to re-read my last message thinking I had made a 'naughty' typo in there somewhere, then I realised what you meant ;-) :-D

Typo's have always worried me since I first starting typing many years ago. I would often touch on the key to the side of the one I meant to type and I lost count of the number of letters I would type with 'Yours faithfully' at the end where I had typed in a double 'k' instead of a double 'l' !!! :-0 :-0

Thankfully I always checked through them and so never sent any out (at least I hope I didn't ;-) ) :-D :-D

It did mean a lot of re-typing or tipexing though as it was the 'old typewriter' in those days :-(

Dea Xxx

Good morning all! :-D


DEA! Such naughty words first thing in the morning! You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Tuts and double tuts!



Fried Bread - simply scrumptious :-D




Gins, either get your eyes tested or get a spill-proof cup! Obviously old age is settling in good and proper!



Bedroom cleaning today, but that doesn't take long and off to a local mill for a wander round. I will be making my way to the curtain department as I have been looking for new curtains for about 3 years....... :-(


Mind you, haven't mentioned that to himself yet!!! ;-)


Hopefully a reasonably relaxed day.........


Jonesey? Have you warmed up yet? :-D

Thanks for the cuppa Ginns <3 I will nibble on a crumpet while I make a start on the rest of the breakfast... :-D

Sausages, bacon, poached eggs, scrambled eggs, mushrooms, tomatoes, fried bread....................

Porridge is bubbling away on the hob.

Fresh fruits, yoghurts, cereals etc. on the side.

Help yourselves everyone.

Mornin all~~~~

Linds <3


As I woke yesterday morning, I reached for a glass of water and knocked the entire contents down the back of my bedside drawers......

..............last night, sat at the pc, I reached for a drink of water and knocked the entire contents down over the desk

What's that about!

Kettle is on, muffins and crumpets in the oven

Poor Jonesey - shivering away there at his computer bless him........ ;-)

Hope your old boiler gets sorted very quickly......it's not funny sitting in the cold at your age....here.....have another blanket! :-D



Hope all goes well tomorrow Linds......... <3


Had a lovely massage this morning.....head, neck, shoulders and back.....oooooh! bliss. zzzzzzzzzzz


Took grandson to get his watch sorted. It's one which belonged to his other grandad who died in November - so it's got some lovely memories for him.


Hope everyone else has had a good day............ :-D

Good idea about the sandwich Dea <3

I did take some of the peanut ones to Liverpool with me and had yours in my handbag then forgot to give you them.

Gins and myself enjoyed them though ;-)

I will list the different flavours when I leave some on the table tomorrow :-)

Off to take the last of the stuff!!

Save two for me please 'coz I didn't get one the first time around !! ;-) :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

Trust you Dea!

Peanut ones Linds? Save one for me and Dea

I always take an 'emergency sandwich' and maybe a choccy bar or cereal bar to the hospital with me Linds so that I can eat them in the car on the way home ;-) :-D

Dea Xxx <3

Gins ~~~~~~

Ok just over half way through the yuk.

What I always find strange is that I am never hungry wonder why :-D

When I get home tomorrow I will treat myself to some of my lovely Lindt chocolates.

I might even share them ;-)

Jonesey hope you have some heaters.

It is cold and wet and has been dark all day here :-(

Poor Jonesey, take care, the cold is dangerous at your age

I'm sending you a pair of these. JB got some for xmas and he has to take them off every now and again as they are too warm!

Stick those on, get a tot of whiskey and you're sorted

Linds~~~~~~~~

Gosh Linds, you have had to start taking that early !!! :-0

Never mind, after today, tomorrow will be nothing but sheer joy ! ;-) :-) <3

Dea Xxx

Oh I have been up since silly o'clock starting my prep for tomorrow. I can't look at all that lovely breakfast :-(

Jonesey hope all goes to plan with the boiler. They do always seem to pack up in the winter don't they. Ours died in the middle of that really bad winter a few years ago.

It was over 5 days before we got it replaced they tried to repair it twice then had to get the replacement.

It was so cold you could see your breath on the air we had to go and buy electric heaters. Hope yours is back on soon :-D

Poor Jonesey - you had better find all those hot water bottles <3 <3

Dea Xxx

OOeerr - 2 breakfasts..............

It's a bit like buses isn't it? You wait for hours for one and then 3 come at once (Or, so I am told as I am always in my car ;-) :-D :-D )

Thanks Cynths,

Dea Xxx

Well, it's certainly not 'spring-like' here - there has been another VERY hard overnight frost and everyhere is white :-(

Have filled the warmers with scrambled eggs, sausages, bacon, fried bread, tomatoes, mushrooms and baked beans and the porridge is on the hob ;-)

Plenty of toast, fresh fruits, cereals etc on the side.

Help yourselves........

Dea Xxx <3

About to get colder where I live.

After many years loyal service my old central heating boiler has had a nervous breakdown and is being replaced. The fitter is due in the next few minutes to start the job which he predicts will take 2 days so no heating or hot water for the next couple of days. Think of me sitting at the keyboard swathed in blankets. :-(

Why don't boilers have the good grace to pack up in the summer rather than in the winter? Ours has not got an excuse as it is on throughout the year heating the house in winter and the swimming pool in the summer. Bad show I say.
