Hello Linds - are you ready for the girls in the morning ???

Those trees cause more arguments than anything else.

They grow so fast and block out daylight.

If they are looked after properly - cut every year - then they are ok

Otherwise aaargh!!

Yes Linds, the 'hedge' is leylandii :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

I have been asking them for YEARS to cut it back

Sounds like a better day was had at B&M!

We did laugh though!

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Oh Gins that made me smile.

We had a lovely dinner with the family last night.

Today we took J and the girls out for lunch as S was working. then we went to visit MIL.

On way home popped into the local B and M store to look for a Snow White dress for F as the one she has is getting tight and she loves it (also looks really cute in it)

didn't have one but still managed to spend £25 :-)

Gins put a not through that neighbours door and tell her its her hedge not yours.

Silly woman.

One of our neighbours has those leylandi trees and keeps getting quotes to have them cut. Keeps saying too expensive so I told him its not going to get any cheaper next year as they will have grown.

Last year I had enough got a knock at the door. did I want trees cut?

I took him round to price doing the trees (the way I wanted them done).

Then told him it was next doors trees and explained what they were like.

We agreed he would tell him a price (I was going to pay but not willing to pay half of it at same time wanted it done)

I went with him and spoke to neighbour said I would pay half ;-) but only if he got it done then.

He did also told him he has to keep them under control as not paying again.

Gins next time sit out the back with a bottle of wine - just don't slip on the decking x

OOOOerrr Ginns - It sounds like you should have stayed at home !! ;-) :-D :-D but well away from the neighbours :-S

A wonderful warm spring day we decided to visit the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, on arrival we were turned away, it was full.

So, Wentworth Castle is just down the road and we have never been before so off we go>>>>>>>>>>>

Arrived to find there is NO castle, just grounds which resemble woodland! Thought we would grab a bite to eat from the shoe box size café. Stands in line waiting to be served and when we finally got to the front we were told there is a 40-60 minute wait.......FOR A SARNI

Went for a walk around the 'gardens' and came upon a glass house filled with plants. The beautiful flowers in the entrance were SILK!

The most interesting part of the visit was an elderly couple fighting 'out loud', she thumped him and he was about to thump her back when he realised where they were!

Got back home to find a note through the door from a neighbour asking us to cut back the hedge that is encroaching onto her garden........

It's HER hedge on HER land

I need to sit quietly for a while>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You're right Dea, I mean, how different can a mattress be from £300 to £2.5K

I am sorry but £2.5k for a matress !!!!!

You could feed the starving millions for that !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Glad you bought a sensible one Ginns and hope you and JB will be very happy on it ;-) ;-) :-D :-D :-D

Linds, my PM's are all over the place, says I have unread ones and ones that have been read :-|

Anyway, I have read your PM, glad you are on the mend :-D

Me and JB went to buy a new mattress yesterday, the price of them :-0 Some were 2.5K!

We ended up getting one, not at the top end though, £360 plus free mattress protector. I think we paid a lot more for our current on in 2009 but it needs replacing...memory foam, PANTS

Got a natural one, filled with cotton & silk

I have sent you both a PM <3

Don't worry about me I will get back to normal soon or at least as normal as I get ;-)

Hope you both have a lovely time with your families tomorrow x

I have e-mailed Linds but she hasn't come back yet !!

She is SO not well here Ginns !!

I am starting to get worried but will give her another go !!

Dea xxx

Hope you are feeling better Linds <3

Oh dear Linds - I'm sorry to hear that :-(

What you need is a good rest !

Hope you get sorted soon <3 <3 <3

Hello Everyone :-)

I finally made it on today I did manage to grab some of that lovely food but it was a very quick visit :-D

We had the girls today while Mummy went to the hairdressers.

We made a tent in the dining room .

They dressed up changing a few times from princesses to fairies to witches.

They took Grampa out to the hut to choose some toys (as if we don't have enough inside)

they ended up playing with the Fisher Price School house and circus Train

Then they did some jigsaws.

We took them to visit their GGran (MIL) and she was on good form.

We did cheat SIL went to see how she was and phoned us to say it was ok to take girls as she was having a good day.

We had a nice visit and the girls were really good . We had baked chocolate brownies and they took some for her.

Then we dropped the girls home and we did the food shop or at least most of it.

We got home at 7pm . The house is still a tip toys everywhere but they can wait until tomorrow.

We have a day off on Monday but we have the girls on Wednesday.

That's the one Ginns - It is the Christmas one that does it !!!!!

P.S. - Less about the 'big' there please, although I AM working on it !!! ;-) :-D :-D
