Found you all! You cant hide from me Velvet :) I've always been a night owl, but become more of an early bird being out here. The darn birds start singing so early, talk about dawn chorus... ...mind you the sight of the falcons soaring above the Bosphorus is more than worth being up this early. The old girl next door has a cow, that has a 4a.m alarm in-built(she has a little place that is worth a mint , because of the property boom, but she won't budge... just her and the animals) and it wakes me up most days. We're on the last leg of the semester, kids leave June 10th. My 8th are 'graduating', so there's a huge party atmosphere. Girls all have their 'posh frocks', and I cant wait to see how my monsters scrub up... I'll try to post some photos next weekend. Who would have believed a year could go so quickly... Have a great day, I'll drop in later... Mx

Bit of nuisance unfortunately....when they get in your roof!!! but don't mind really.... Jacquie

Jacq just tidying up here I must go soon, lol. losing that connection for that hour really bu****ed my computer up having to do all sorts now. Bats can't hear them only got one good ear from childhood I had a mastoid op when I was between 2-4 years old, no one remembers exactly when the op was done but tonsils went at the same time. Anyway Hubby and my son hear the bats not fair as i am the one who loves the bats they don't particularly like them typical aint it? You lucky thing in Grenada and Bats as well, lol. Pat x

Hi Pat, how are you with Bats......got a few here.. Jacquie xxx

Deb, yes I remember but people should not be afraid. Put your tin hat on and come on out here and post, ok you may need skin of a rhino or even an elephant (that is gonna remind me forever of Mags in Bristol lol, Mags they are nice thoughts you remind me of an elephant its a compliment) ok and then all we need is for everyone to support each other all those people who thought this was some sort of private club no it isn't, those who thought they were alone no you are not, and those who thought I would go to bed early and give up on my broadband no way will i be defeated by a machine that doesn't understand my needs. I got back on here with determination took me about an hour but I am here. Post away, someone will be here to either read it, add to it or support it. Just go for it. I am a night owl I admit it and I love owls, :-) Pat x

Hi Everyone. I have just read through the threads - what a day. I sure hope that Maz persues the 'nasties' who emailed her. Pat - do you remember the thread 'are you afraid to post on the board'. I think that today has summed it up. Another mixed bag today as far as the weather is concerned. Last weekend was SO hot - in the 30's. Mind you I was under the weather so didn't enjoy it. Hope that this weekend is as nice. I hope that everyone is well. Deb

Hi Deb Veronica's BBQ sounds great I wonder if there's any chance of an invite.....love carrot cake and lemon chicken... How's you tonight/today..... Jacquie x

Ooh Les, the excitement of moving into a new house! I wish you luck selling the house in the 'Hub city'. I have just realised - we moved into this house 10 years ago TODAY! How time flies.

Still afternoon here! Sun is out. Nothing much new today. Just getting dinner ready.

Deb Maz isn't in a very good mood so watch it, did you see her thread about those choccie biccies? very upset the cheese and crackers are gone too, so you will have to make allowances for her tonight, lol How are you Deb, hope things are good with you? Pat x

Hiya Deb Hows you today/this evening/tonight LOL!! Maz x

Good Evening/ Afternoon/ Morning! Anyone around tonight?

HI Deb yes thats me, lived at UBC for 3 years. Now in Auckland NZ, and loving it. We are a few minutes form the sea and i love the beach. Don't miss Northern Hemsiphere weather though! In Auckland we don't even get frost in winter, which suits me fine ( the hot house plant that I am!)

Hi Melanie, I think we talked a year or so ago. Did you go to UBC or something like that? So what are you up to now, and do you miss the south coast? Deb

HI Deb, I lived in Vancouver for three years out at Point Grey. From Wales originally and now in NZ!

Hi Veronica, Maybe we should get together when you are 'out West' Let me know what dates you are here. It seems like all I do is say goodnight to people! I'll bring the Canadian thread forward - maybe someone will add to it. Night, Deb

Night Liz.........Maybe catch you tomorrow night? In case I don't get to chat before the weekend, have fun with the little guy! Deb

Hi Deb, Yes me, but am just away to bed as I have a busy day Wednesday. Didn't have Joe after all, he is coming on Friday evening so we have a leisurely day on Saturday together. Hope you're o.k -talk to you another time. 'Night, Liz

Anyone there?
