Hi Huia,

We have had Fog non stop for about 6days now but with it RAIN RAIN RAIN ....I seem to get Fog as I'm quite near the sea.....I hate it it looks more like December.

Yesterday was probrably the best day yet ! but still not good for July. :-S

Huia Hows Phil these days ? does he still recognize you ? Its so sad for you being alone ....oh how I often think of when we get old what will it be like .. :-S
We had a program last night on the TV documentary called when your over 65yrs, it stared with some of our elderly TV stars living with older folk in their houses , just so that they could see life in another light .....it was heart breaking !! one lady so worn out with her bedridden hubby that the TV star encourage her husband to go into RESPITE for her to have a rest as he refused to go before ....I wont tell you any more as its so depressing :-(

Well as I speak the SUN is coming OUT !!!!!! :-D

I have been completely fogged in all day today. I dont remember it being like that before. The fog usually lifts mid to late morning. Not today though, although it did clear at 5 p.m. at Auckland airport. I couldnt see more that half a kilometre, if that. I hope it is better tomorrow or it will be a slow drive to my sister's place. It normally takes 1 and a quarter hours to get there.

Huia.

Morning all.

I like those 2 posts, Stephen.

Nice to see you pop in Foggy, sounds like you had good weather in Spain. I hope George does come back - we miss seeing his little avatar on here.

Mo, I was beginning to think you'd left us, don't you know you need a 'leave of absence' before you go missing? We're all fine thank you, how's your son coming along?

That's strange that you got a blank email off me Marilyn, what did it have written on the 'subject' line? Wonder if anyone else got one of those.

Shelly, you'll have to stop giving keys out to everyone. :-D :-D

Did Maddie get a 'leave of absence'?

Pokes head round the door.......Helloooo everyone, it's moi.
How the divil are you all. Sorry to have been absent for so long, but time flies by without us realising.
How the heck did I manage when I was at work, I often ask myself.

I can't get into my E.Mails yet, Virgin are doing major works on the network apparantly, well thats their excuse anyway. Much like this site, when we have problems.

Where has Rita gone for her holiday? I don't seem to be able to find out when I look for it.

Shelly, take the door key away from the boys, thats one way of stopping the little bu**ers scaring the pants off you. That way you will avoid the boy pong that youngsters make.
When our son came back and stayed with us, after his separtion, I would go in his bedroom in the morning, only to open the window, and let the stink out. I am not saying he's dirty, he showers every day, but seems to sweat buckets over night.

Good to see you home Marilyn.. I suppose the next holiday abroad will be back to the USA for thanks giving again.
It seems to me, that every time you go abroad, something happens to either one of you, healthwise. So stay at home for a few months babe, and enjoy our lovely british summer months. ;-)

Pauline, hows your back now honey. And hows our Brent doing now. It seems ages since we spoke of him, I do hope he is well.

Yvonne, you should be here in Kent today. It's sweltering hot, the humidity is awful, real head ache weather.

We are both fine. Had to go see the doctor yesterday about my blood test result.
Thank goodness my cholesterol has now come down from 7.1 to 3.1,the tablets have done their job.
Back for another blood test in six months time, hopefully then she will lower the dose for me.

Hope to speak to you all again soon, bye for now~~~~~~~Mo

Pauline how lucky you are to have had SUN yesterday.....Pete was thinking of building a boat ......I have never seen so much rain in all my life and they lel me its been like this for weeks.
If we ever have a hose ban their would be a riots in the streets of in Devon.

Pauline for your interest I had a blank E-Mail from you after you sent me those mails this morning .......anything to to with your lappy wanting to play-around !!
I loved the lady bike one ....I bet the Stevey & George would goggle at that one ..LOL

I think I'll go and window shop today.....I need exercise.

That was strange................. while I was typing I lost my Internet connection, then a few seconds later it came back up with 2 tabs open - one on the Orange home page and one on the Firefox home page. The only page I'd had open when it went off was this one. :-S :-S

Morning all.

Jean, I agree with you about the horses - not that I know anything about them - I think most animals would want to shelter from heavy rain.

Marilyn, you're going to have to stop jetting around the world for a while, your body needs a break from jet lag.

We've got rain again today; we had lovely warm sunshine all day yesterday. I made the most of it while I had the chance.

Good morning all, hope you had a peaceful night.

Breakfast anyone??
Hot rolls with bacon, sausage, eggs, your choice.
Toast and marmalade or honey,
Tea or coffee.

Marilyn, I wouldn't ever ride any of my horses in heavy rain, they prefered
to shelter from it, but maybe your neighbour felt her horse needed exercise, though I dont think it would have been too happy, and as you say your neighbour must have been drenched.

Hope Rita is having a good holiday, although the weather hasn't been very kind, at least she is having a break, and hopefully a rest.

Yvonne I hope you enjoy your holiday.

Hello to everyone, take care and stay safe and enjoy your day.

Oh! yes please Marilyn, just what I need.
Hope you are feeling ok now, was you feeling ill before you fainted?
Hope your OH is recovering well, and the problem with his eyes will soon clear.

Hello everyone, hope you have enjoyed your day.

Weather a bit unsettled here, but seems to be the same over most of the country.

Bye everyone ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
