Morning All,
Finally checking in as I had a busy weekend and then .....I was straight back to work after a 2 week break
Hope your appointment goes well Robert.

Edinburgh festival shows were good fun.
Highlight for me was Caroline Rhea ( Better known as Aunt Hilda from Sabrina The Teenage Witch).
She is quite funny!

:-D :-D :-D :-D

OFITG hope all goes well for you.

Emma :-)

Good luck with your checkup on your eye at the hospital - I hope all goes well :-)

I have attend my local hospital here in Kent on a regular basis over the past 5 years for laser treatment to deal with recurring problems I have with my eyes.

On my last appointment my consultant discovered a problem in my left eye which she cannot deal with, so she has referred me to a specialist at Kings College Hospital in London - all very worrying :-)

Robert dinna worry laddie it'll be awright :-)

Hi Emma,

Scots mum turns her classic VW Beetle into a huge can of Iron-Bru

It was made in Scotland alright, although maybe not from girders, but the owner has wowed car enthusiasts by turning her 1968 Volkswagen Beetle into a huge can of Iron-Bru

Woody's welcome on board from a Fifer now living near Bromley in Kent, enjoyed quite a few holidays under canvas in the - Inverness, Nairn, and Dingwall areas.

Hope you have an enjoyable & interesting time at the Lanarkshire FH Fair at Motherwell on Saturday.

Welcome Woody's,

Good to hear from you - keep popping in.

I was up in your neck of the woods last week - Aviemore and Drumnadrochit and all points round about.

Ate too much, there is so much good food up there, but thoroughly enjoyed my stay.

Welcome Woody's,

Nice of you to pop in, my son and his family live in Elgin
at present but looking to come back to Aberdeen early
next year.
Inverness is lovely to visit and have been several times
over the years.
Have a great time in Motherwell. Take care.

Emma :-)

Morning fellow Scots, whether born here or not!
Congratulations on such a happy, happy thread, it's fantastic!

Golden Girl, I'm not too far from you (near Inverness) though actually from Skye. My husband was born in Aberdeen and moved to Inverness when he was 7 years old.
We do know Aberdeen though and my sister in law and several of his cousins still live there.

On the subject of meets - I'm off to Motherwell on Saturday to the Lanarkshire FH Fair. I'll be meeting a few like-minded people as they and I are members of Scotfamtree.
We've had several over the years and have met lots of people from GR and elsewhere.

Hope you all have a good day xx

Oh DearI have just written a long text and then went on to another page ....and lost it all so will come back tomorrow :-( :-)

Our IMac is going in for repair too.
When it started to play up last year, we managed to back everything up onto an external h/drive ....before it finally died.

We are currently in the process of backing it up again as it's going back in for repair again...this time, the disc drive isn't working.
It will play music CDs but not DVDs or CD ROMs ???

OFTG I do have a hard drive had it for the other comp but have been very negligent and to be honest can't find the darn thing but have learn't me lesson!

Nolls from Harrogate, great when their working OK but a nightmare when things go wrong :-(

I had a computer pack in on me 18 months ago, ever since then I always back up my important files, photos, and documents, on to an external hard drive, you can get a decent one for under £50 ;-)

Oh dear :-( Nolls
