Stephen your a scream needed that laugh this morning. glad you OK and dont over doing it today
. Morning everyone how do you think your get on with this new tree fomrmat ? so many threads on about it. I wish they would send GR an email telling them they are not happy with it.. so GR became snowed under with the complaints ?maybe they would think again and reverts to the old format ..

It isnt raining to day infact we do have a slight wind (not me ) and the sky is grey but it might brighten up.later on today I hope so.
Friday I suppose to those not working it will be a day of shopping for the food for the week a head.?

I will see you later I hope.?????

A Wee Chuckle for the day

Senior Dress Code

Many of us "Old Folks" (those over 60, WAY over 60, or hovering near 60) are quite confused about how we should present ourselves.
We're unsure about the kind of image we are projecting and whether or not we are correct as we try to conform to current fashions.
Despite what you may have seen on the streets, the following combinations DO NOT go together and should be avoided:

A nose ring and bifocals

Spiked hair and bald spots

A pierced tongue and dentures

Miniskirts and support hose

Ankle! Bracelets and corn pads

Speedo's and cellulite

A belly button ring and a gall bladder surgery scar

Unbuttoned disco shirts and a heart monitor

Midriff shirts and a midriff bulge

Bikinis and liver spots

Short shorts and varicose veins

Inline skates and a walker

The new tree is disgusting I hope people on here take a look at it. why they had to alter something that was easy to do and add a harder version .saying it will help us.is rubbish.
I dont think I will bother now with my tree on here.

Please take alook and if you dont like it let GR know.

Morning all.

Rita, it won't be long now before you go to hospital to find out what they're going to do, just remember you're a fighter. We're all keeping you in our thoughts.

Mo, I didn't see that it was Lilly's birthday, sorry about that............... hope she had a lovely day.

I must try to read more than one page when I come on here.

Nice to see you back, Stephen, you'll be refreshed and ready for anything now. Hmm, maybe I should give it a try.

George, it's cold here, it's raining but the wind is very cold.

Shelly, why is your lappy still not working?

Phone's ringing.......... again, be back later.

Morning Jean

I saw your chat came through as I scrolled down to make sure mine was Ok.
I am trying to keep my chin up but it is hard going as you know from your terrible time you went through it.

Take care love

Morning I am late on here I was late getting up.not that I was not awake for once I laid there thinking and planning things. not like me at all to do that.
My tinitus waa playing up and I didnt hear the rain I had a shock when I opened the curtains and saw the rain. which was nice it gets rid of all the dirt and dust laying about on the paths and pavements , which causes a lot of people to sneeze and the ground and grass need it along with the trees,. The only thing is it looks like there is a hell of alot more up there in the heavens and I dont think that is good. anyway hope you all wear you raincoats and wellies when you go out. lol

I think Marilyn comes back today or maybe it was yesterday ?
