I am late on . I went and had my warfarin blood taken this morning she was running 3/4 hour late/ I told her good job she was not running in the Games.
I then took a perscription into the chemist and did some shopping in Waitrose. pices up once again. when I asked why ? I was tolds it is Head Office that makes the prices not the shop.It could not be that everyone is buying salad stuff so they upped the prices.

I am having trouble with the computer as well. it keeps going static on me and this morning I could not move the little arrow at all. I tried Task Master and spent ages trying all sorts of things. then tried rebosting it and it worked. but I think I could be having trouble with the mouse. ? so I have put some new batteries in and we will see how that goes? now half the letters have gone on the keyboard so I have lost E R A S D O and L.

I have not had this key board for a year yet ? so be warned when you buy a new keyboard make sure the letters are not transfers. mine is welknown one and I never knew the letters were transfers.so beware.

off now to make a cup of tea.

Beautiful here again this morning
What to do today?
Possibly go to Polesden Lacey another NT house.
We were going to go to The Bath and West Show, but it is £22 each to get in nearly 100miles there and another 100 miles back, so expensive on petrol and time and then food and drinks on top as too hard to carry enough. So maybe next year.
No storms yet so managed a fish BBQ last night.
Mind the garden is flagging

Have a lovely day everyone

Evening All.

Another hot one. But the sky is now clouding over, we may have a shower.

Now Rita.....................let me tell you a story. I logged on here at 6.35 this morning, and said my usual nonsense and pressed the Submit button.

So where did it go? lol

Anyway, hope you are all well, and fanning yourselves with a lettuce leaf.

Morning

We still have the heat wave/ some people had storms yesterday ? so I was told. I fully expected one last night the heat was unbareable. I went to bed at 9.45 and lay on the top of the covers. it took ages to get a sleep. and I was awake after I had to get up to go to the loo off and on all night.
I wanted the sun but I am not so sure I like this heat.?

The people on holiday in Britian I expect love this weather if they are on the coast. still showers tomorrow so make the most of it.

I didnt get a chance to see "The War Horse " last night. my friend brought me her DVD of the film. but I was reading and could not put the book down.about a Jewish family who had to leave Germany when the war broke out and start their lives fresh in Nuneaten I have only a quarter of the book to read now. and it is a thick one.

Off now to see what I fancey for breakfast

Have a good day

Linda with all the BBQ-s your going too your have to work harder at GYM to lose the weight. lol

I think it is hotter today than it was yesterday. it feel like it too me.

I have been living on Salads for days as I brought a lot of Salad stuff I used it incase it went off with the heat. I do keep it cool.
but it soon turns brown. I dont think I have lost weight though. I did cheat and ate a crunchie bar.

I keep getting phones calls now I have won this or that a little while ago I won a Holiday to Dubi I tell them I am not interested and hang up.I dont know how they get away with these phone calls when I am down for not receiving any.

Hi Girls ( no men at the moment )

I was lucky a friend took me to Woking to collect my specs. she said you dont want to walk in this heat. she was going to the market. I walk slowly back to the bus stop. boy was it hot. I was puffing away. I had a salad when I got in. and sat and had a sleep for hour.

Some one moved into the flat near me. it has been empty for 18 months belong to a friend of mine she died and the flat was empty for a while.
No one knew someone had brought it. the estate manager said it is private and she is not allowed to tell people. ( how sad is that ) the first we all knew was the remvoal van and furniture..

For all we knew it was still empty and not sold how can you let things like that happen ? they could be two strangers for all we knew.? so I have not met them yet.

we are suppose to get storms this afternoon. they have not come yet. so I expect it will happen towards night time.

hope everyone is keeping cool.

I am going to collect my specs this morning if it doesnt rain heavy, I have a walk to the bus stop , and coming back I have a longer walk.
