Morning all.
Jean I hope you are on the mend. <3 <3 <3 <3
Linda great that little Sebastian is home and doing well. Hope mum is getting as much rest as possible.
Almost finished the plasterboarding in our bedroom, its been a busy old week. I twisted my knee while moving the bed on Saturday and definitely heard some kind of "pop". When I got up yesterday it was black and blue and hurts like mad today :-(
Hope all the friendlies are safe, well and warm and those with coughs and colds will soon be feeling better.

Same here, just popping in to say hello and goodnight........... been busy with family things.

I never seem to have any time on my own since my husband retired.

Stephen, why are you going to the airport? I've only looked at this page, so don't know if you're going away on holiday.

Marilyn, will you give Pete my best wishes please? Sorry I'm late but didn't know it was his birthday............. hope he had a lovely day.

Nice to know the baby's home, Linda, means he's doing well.

Hope Jean's feeling better, does anyone know how she is?

Maddie, what tests did you have?

I'm pleased to say we didn't get much snow yesterday, just a light covering and it all melted today.

Just back from seeing Baby.
The weather has eased a little and quite a lot of the snow has melted. Just hope the temperature keeps up and doesn't freeze overnight. It will be like a skating rink if it does.

The baby is lovely, though he seems tiny, his clothes are too big!! I have finally held him and also gave him some expressed milk while we were there. His Mum seems tired but that is to be expected. Our son and his wife came by with lunch for them all.

We came home early while it was still warmer and light.

Have a good evening everyone

I had to come on to the computer as my sister booked one of our holidays and I wanted to check the date. here I am checking holidays with a streaming cold. I dont recall having a cold like this for ages. my sister was laughing as I was sneezing like mad on the telephone I told her dont laugh these germs go down the phone and along the telphone lines. lol

I bet you were worried about your horse Yvonne. if you dont have a horse you forget things like that feeding them and seeing to them.. if you had not mentioned it I would not have known how difficult it is for people. who have animals to feed.

I hope Pete had a good birthday,

keep warm everyone and dont take chances going out in this weather.

remember the saying "
Is your journey really neccessary " ?

Hello all

Stay warm Rita and have plenty of warm drinks, hope you will be feeling better soon

Lots of snow in Hertfordshire, I couldn't get my car out of my road this morning so a freind who keeps her horse at the same place as mine said she would give my horse some hay and water, she's got a 4x4.

Best Wishes to Pete

Linda pleased your little grandson is doing well

but not too good so I thought I would say morning to you all.as I might not get back on here today..
we have thick snow. I noticed a fox had been around the back of my garden last night. might have been after the little bit of bread and butter pudding I put down for the birds.

bye for now.

Morning all from a snow blanketed Berkshire.
It continued all evening think it's stopped now and is begining to melt slightly. Hubby reacons we had abot 7cm nearly 3 ins.

No we didn't get to our daughters, it was too nasty and we wouldn't have got home. So we left them to settle on their own for the first night.

See how it goes today

I hope everyone is OK

Afternoon all
Well first news is that we have SNOW. Ugh the last thing we need.
Took FIL back to his flat at lunchtime and he treated us to a meal, very nice. We didn't get to the crematorium considering the weather we wanted to get him home. Just as well we did, eh.
Whilst there we had a call from our daughter to say they were going home this afternoon. WOW
We hope to get over this evening, but not sure just now.

Finished some miittens just now Mo.

Hope everyone is Ok
Maddie glad you too had good results from your tests.
Hope your cold is easing Rita
Glad you enjoyed your break Marilyn and have a great birthday Pete.
Mo glad you have found some new family to increase your family knowledge. I found some new info yesterday. And names with dates on the Memory Book of the Crematorium web page.
Hope Hazel, Sallie and all others are fine today

Just popping in to say a quick hello.
I have been so busy after finding another cousin of mine in Australia.
Her mum was my dads youngest sister, and I had no idea of her existance.
It's been wonderful catching up, and seeing photo's of past family members.
Bye for now, back to the searching. Love Mo
