Hi everyone, back on line yet again... not thanks to the telecom office... they just love to cut me off! Hmmm thought Tony was stockin up??? Oh well, I'll have a voddie and coke anyway, nice to wind down and speak ENGLISH after a day listening & speaking to what by 5o'clock becomes gobbeldy gook...lol... Anyone about? I'll be here for a couple of hours... Magi

Hiya Magi help yourself,bet the weather is getting nice over there now? Dave

You gotta be joking Dave, it's brass monkeys out here. Saturday was lovely (guess who was at work!!!), yesterday was blowing a gale up the Bosphorus Brrr... Sunny today, but us hardened Northerners were out (in the smokers shed) without proper coats. Did the girls enjoy Rome? I disappeared for a bit, went to to the photos page, you & Bilal share the same hobbies Dave...lol... Magi

Hi Dave Been a bit quiet in here lately. Just called in with some magazines for your coffee table. Hi Lara Dont worry bout Tony, as you know he thrives on it. Hi Tony So far 'Ra' is co-operating with the weather...LOL All have a Happy Easter and I will catch you later. Vickie

Can I come in for coffee and biccies and TLC, please? Joy

Hi Magi I presume you mean drinking! lol

Uncle Dave, would I mean anything else? Just got in from the mad house, checked out 'our' thread, dropped in for my usual coffee... invested in a new toy... 3 in 1 scanner, copier, printer & havent come up for air since Sunday! I'm gonna put all the old photos on my page, so everyone can smile. my dad and his brothers look like they've been in the Austin Powers movie ..lol.. Dont you just hate it when work interferes with your fun? Where's our Lynn? Hope she hasnt had more squirrel probs... Magi

Magi I got a three in one a couple of months back a Lexmark P3150 really good as well dont know how i did without it before. Davex

I am sooooo into Turknology! Yep, you read it right! I thought al I had to do was bring the new toy home plug it in and Bob's your uncle... WRONG - I got the thing home and then realised all the instructions were in Turkish. Needless to say I screamed! Everyday lingo, I have no problem, but technical stuff... well I ask you... yet somehow this proud to be Northumbrian kid, manages to decipher one word in ten, cilcked on all the right places, and wey hey! We have lift off. The only photograph Bilal has of his dad is an old black'n'white identity card photo, so thinking I was doing something good, I blew it up to postcard size and distributed it via e-mail to the Adiyaman clan worldwide - boy oh boy were there tears and snots flying on Sunday night. But at least they were tears of happiness... I went for the HP 1310 and love it! Now I want a pictbridge camera, oh and by the way I have been rellie hunting too. I was almost doing handstands at 06:00 this morning, anyone heard of Street Issa in Wakes? It seems my lot went from Wales to England and back again. Hubby will never understand my passion for the past methinks... Love to all Magi

Turknology Magi lol! glad you ae enjoying your 3 in 1 they are great aren't they. Dave
