Find Ancestors

I always cried at the children's school nativity

We're a couple of big softies!

The one that REALLY gets me Gins is hearing them all singing in a school concert - it always brings tears to my eyes - I don't know why !!

Yum yum.......thank you Dea

It sounds like the kids have a ball at your house, there's not a nicer sound, than hearing kids playing :-)

Coming up Ginns and freshly cooked too, especially for you <3

We have had the day off today - no lovely grandchildren ! It has been SO quiet !!

One sad thing I noticed is that over the past 3 (VERY long) days that we have had them, they have amused themselves beautifully - playing together and filling the house with giggles and squeales, playing charades, building dens, doing jigsaws, getting muddy in the garden and playing on the slides and swings, playing games with us, printing party invites etc. from the computer and generally interacting with each other and having FUN.

We have LOTS of toys and games for them but nothing like what they have at home - just 'simple stuff'.

When they get home they have all the things that most children nowadays have - i.e. Wii's, Huggles, etc etc and when they go home they play differently - each settling on one or other of the electronic 'thingies' (sorry, I don't know what they all are or what they all do or how to spell them ).

There is a lot to be said for going back to 'the olden times' and creating your own amusements................

Anyway, it is nice to have a few days off but I am not tempted to buy all those gadgets for this house, even for a 'quiet life' !!!

I'll have a veg sausage sarni please Dea

:-)

Good morning all :-D

I have prepared a Full English breakfast with loads of fried bread - bacon, eggs, sausages (pork or veggie), fried potatoes, mushrooms, baked beans, tomatoes.............

Hope you have time to enjoy it <3

See you later,

Sorry Fred, been a bit distracted

On the way home from Nottingham yesterday, had ALL four seasons in 1.5hrs

Got home and we had snow on the streets!

Oooo Yumm Linds ! :-D

Just sat down for a quick cuppa so I would love a slice of that key lime pie with it please <3 <3 <3

Could I take some of that lovely quiche and salad to enjoy when the grandchildren have gone home around 6.15 ?

Got a few days off after today so should be able to pop in here a little more ;-) <3 <3

We had Shred die a couple weeks ago and this morning 'Crabbie' died

Another friend lost, he was too young to go :-( <3

Good you got out and had fun Linds

I love bowling but cant do that anymore with the wrist problem :-(

One of the Friday gang is acting out of character, always angry

It will need one of the boys to talk to him, I'm on it............but the boys are just backing off, at the moment He's had the most awful problems, no wonder it's got to him <3

It was No3 sons birthday yesterday.

They got takeaway I had quiche and baked potato

I was going stir crazy so the four of us went for a game of ten pin bowling this afternoon.

I won :-)

Now I'm sitting on the sofa for the rest of the night ;-)

Thank you Gins - you know that is my favourite <3

Glad meeting went ok and that plane crash was a tragedy so sad.
