Hello, just getting ready for bed, but I thought I would just pop in and say goodnight to you.

Thank you Cath for the birthday wishes for Lilly.She had as many presents for her birthday, as she got at christmas. But we gave her money for her building society account.
To be honest with you, I don't think they will ever sort this site out properly.
It's hit and miss most of the time as it is.

Rita, how nice to know that your local bobby is so caring,calling in on you like that.
It's nice to be able to put a face to a name and number.
Enjoy your horlicks, and get a good nights sleep.

Night night god bless.

George I have owned many printers the one that was a doddle to get the cartridges in and out was the Cannon the new HP printer you have seperate coloured cartridges. the Kodak one you have the five coloured in one and a seperate black one

I had a visit from a policeman and a man from the council lunch time. he is the new officer on the beat in this area.they sat and talked he said I hope I didnt worry you having a policman turn up on your door. I said I have enough police officers in the family to worry about having one turn up here. and he laughed.
he was telling me never to go out and confront anyone always call him, if I need to know anything phone him,. The council man said your the one that found the car outside in your car park that had been stolen I said yes we have alot left I ask who s car it is in four day if not moved then I take details and phone them

they were here about 20 minutes. good of them to call and let us know all these things to do.

Evening Stephen, Huia, Mo in Kent, Sallie,Hazel and Rita.

Good to see you back Stephen,
Rita, those printer cartridges can be a bugger to install, I have a right old job trying to install mine. :-( :-(

Hope everyone has had a cracking day today :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

George :-) :-)

A good afternoon everyone.
At last we know what you look like Hazel. I don't know why you were so worried about, you look fine in it.
Most of us have got photo's of each other, and like you, don't like piccies being taken of themselves.
My wrinklies always show more in a photo. I tried ironing them out, but burn't my face, lol ;-) It's what lies beneath that makes a person, not what they look like, after all is said and done. And I am by no means an oil painting, but am what I am.

Well girls we can relax now, knowing that our Stephen is safe and well.
I remember you saying that you were going to be taking yourself off for a few days solitude Stephen.
But you didn't get permission so we cast you as AWOL at the time. I am glad you didn't need a sick note though,as the medics would have kicked up a real stink, with you not really needing to have one. O.K I know I am sounding daft now, waffling away to meself here.

Rita, I have sent you a request on Face Book. I don't know if you visit it very often anymore.
It's strange that Shelly hasn't been on her late night visits lately isn't it. As you said before, she was always up talking to Marilyn when she was away on her hols, especially when Marilyn was in the USA.
We do miss hearing her news about the family, and little legs don't we.
Hope you are o.k today lovey.

Sallie, I forgot, today is your big shop day isn't it. Is Alun taking you today?

Nearly time to start dinner. Mmmmm sweet and sour chicken tonight.
I wonder if Pat will be having curry tonight.
Bye for now folks. Luv Mo

Hello everyone,

Haven't been on here for a couple of days, I've had difficulties getting on the different threads.


Rita, how are you? Hope you and your family are all going along alright. Have your son heard anymore about his operation? It will be nice when it's over and done with.


Stephen, nice to see you back. Glad that you enjoyed your few days of peace and quiet.


Hazel, it's nice to know that there is someone like myself......I hate looking at photos of myself and if I can, I will avoid having my photo taken.lol!!!


Pauline hope you and yours are all alright.



Hello to everyone else, hope that you are all well.

Nice to see you and the bagpipes on board again Stephen.
did you take food with you or catch something from the river ? I hope you found peace and manged to relax.?It does you good to get away now and again into the counrtyside.

It is a mild day here infact has been raining ealier on. so it is strange to look out of the window and see not frost but wet ground.

I have nothing special planned for today need to post some letters and a photo to my old scout group. one of my friends died last October from my Scouts. and I found a lovely photo of her with me at one of our Baazas so I have taken a copy to send to them. may Angela rest in peace. I think they will love it .

I tried to put a new cartridge into my printer yesterday what a job I had to get the old one out and a new one in. I managed after a few curses.

Shelley I suppose we will see more of you when Marilyn comes home tomorrow ? are you still waiting to be rehoused. ?

have a good day

Hi George

I know you two make fun of each other. it is a bit of a laugh really. have you eaten more of those burgers yet ? I hope you seperated them if they were in one big box so they dont stick together and you have to cook all of them together lol

It is about time you wore a jacket over those dungarees to keep yourself warm.
