Hello all I hope everyone is doing ok, nice to see our Jim is getting his "get up and go" back, I'm sending you both big hugs, hurry back and keep our John in line. The snow finally melted on Sunday we have another storm and it's dumping loads of rain ,this is causing flooding down in the valleys ,it should be over by the weekend in time for the next one to move through, my wellies are getting a real workout. Whats happened to Dee Ihope she's sunning herself somewhere nice. Nice to see you back Brenda I bet your weather is nice and warm. I wish you all good luck with the "specialists" they can do wonderful things these days with minimal surgery. Take care all.

June I do not work nights I should have put 12.29pm afternoon. silly me! Pam

Hello Every one. How nice to see our Jim has had a little go back on the site, keep getting better Jim. Marge we have just been watching the news on TV and seeing all the hill slide in California, How terrible for all those people. At the moment we live in a terrible world with all these things going on. Just hope things get better and very soon. My fingers will be crossed for you tomorrow re the Specialist. its no joke is it. I am looking for some new legs laughter. Infact I could do with a new body as well. LOL. John whats this ? you are in to Tai Chi its a good job you dont have to stand on one leg or you might fall over. My Keith says that its good for you, he some times has a go, but sad to say when he does it I have to leave the room as I burst out laughing at him, and that will never do. LOL. Hi Pam Do you work nights then ? only you saying you should be at work and your time was just after midnight. Had a natter this morning on MSN to our Brenda in Oz, we had a laugh and we put the world to rights. Must go but will be back. Tat Tar June.

Just a one liner, to thank you all for your kind thoughts. I am glad to say I am on the road to recovery but it seems it is going to be a slow progress. Will let you know when I am in full swing. What would I do without so many friends LLOL toyou all Weary Jim and Long suffering Mary C

Good Day to you all. It is 12.29am here normally I am at work at this time. Thank you June, one of the members is sending me the Birmingham Evening Mail. When I first came out I was 21 after work myself and a couple of friends used to go the the airport for a drink. I used to pick up the english papers in a book form. That is a few years ago! I hate to say it but lovely weather here. I have seen the floods on TV in UK it said some one had died! Plus the land slides and floods in America. Some of the scenes with the Tsusami were Horrendous. I turned the TV on, [ because I do not normally watch it day time] Doctor Phil was on with this bitter divorce and the petty things the couple were on about. I thought gosh what a load of garbage with what is going on with the world. What is it with this couple!! So I took my coffe and came on to the net to say hello. Kindest regards Pam

Hi Everyone, still around and still in the snow, around here snow stays from December until around MArch or even later if there is lots. sun was out at least for a while today, just watched a lovely sunset over the mountains. Just watching the news, seems like the whole world is having weird weather, floods in California, snow and ice on the west coast of Canada, power out and accidents everywhere, wind and gales around England and Europe, all I hope that tomorrow is O.K. as I have and hour and half drive to go see a specialist about my knee, hope he can fix it, Im tired of walking around like an old codger. Well just off to have coffee with the neighbours, so bye for now. Hope Jim will soon be back. Margaret

Hi Everyone - It's That Man Again! (thinks, I must find a new starter lol) Weather miserable, but dry. I had my Monday spoilt, the U3A has changed my Tai Chi from 2p.m. to 11a.m. which means I have to get up earley - and boy do I hate early :-(((((} Disaster with my certificates ordered before Christmas, I sent for 3, got 2 wrong so lost a "Tenner" - Just like that! June I recon that the only way to get a sensible answer is to talk to yourself ;-)))))))} Glad our Jim is recovering, hurry back old wise one, this place isn't the same without you! Not that I mind talking to all these georgeous ladies ;-))))))))} Glad to see Brenda back anall ;-))))))))} News Flash........... Police reveal that a woman arrested for shoplifting had a whole Salami in her knickers. When asked why, she said it was because she was missing her boyfriend. (Reuters via The Manchester Evening News) Notice seen in the Churchtown Parish Magazine: Would the congregation please note that the bowl at the back of the church labelled "For the sick" is for monetary donations only. Tarrarabit - John xxxxxxxx

Hello Rick, Great I have some one to talk with my almost new son-in-law laughter. Our Brenda in Oz has got my room all ready for when I pop over there. Told her I would go when the Lottery came up. I only won £10 last week so that wont take me very far will it ??? How is our Jan ?? Cooking and cleaning and looking for her new outfit. You will have to get a move on there not long till the 23rd April Tat Tar June xxx

Hello June - please don't talk to yourself lol. I'm here !! So if I'm right, now that youre Jan's mum that makes you my mother in law (sniggers uncontrollably) :-))))))))) Horrid weather here today - so wet & windy. Yes I wish we were off on our hols but somewhere nice and sunny - maybe Australia to see Jan's friend and my cousins. That would be nice - maybe we should start planning !! Rick.xx

Hello All. My word where have you all gone ????? Pam, I am still looking for you, I have been in touch with a friend in Birmingham with the hope he may help. Will be back as soon as I can. Now back to the Brummie gang please dont leave me on my own. Ok I can talk to my self but its not the same. John dont say you have gone up the mountains again. Hello young Jim hope you are still getting better every day. Jan & Rick have you gone off on holiday ??? The girls over the pond hope the snow has gone. Catch you all later. Tat Tar June.

June Thank you for that. Have not heard too much about the floods here? Still lots about the Tsununi and raising Millions of dollars. Thinking of you all who have been affected over there God Bless Pam

Good Morning to you all, Hi Brenda, Received your mail with new email address. I have sent you a short note. Glad Keith fixed your computer up. Catch you later. Pam I have the Brummagem its not a bad paper, lots of photos etc. But after having it for the last two years, I am getting a bit fed up of it now so I dont think I will renew it again. I have an old Telephone directory and later on I will look and see if I can find any numbers in it for you. Well it looks like the wind is on its way back to Wigston, this morning I have found a lot of my large flower pots broken after being knocked over by the wind. We are not as bad as up North they are in a right mess. Floods and electricity cables all down poor people. Off now to do a few jobs but I will be back. Love to all June.

Hello everyone 5.51 here in Perth W.A. I am off to walk the Schipperke soon. I have been so lazy today. Gardening to do and the rest. Does anyone get the Brummagem? I saw a couple of copies the other day I never knew about it. Is it worth it? One of the members is putting a where are you now thing in the Birmingham Evening Mail for me hoping to catch a couple relies. I am ordering more certificates hoping I will get more ideas and also hoping I have the right relies. I have looked and no more luck. So wish me well and there is not as much of a back log as I have heard. Kal from Birmingham looked up an address from mothers birth cerificate 9 Court 7 Richard Street Birmingham. Edith Jones She was registered in Aston subdistrict of Duddeston 1918. they lived there till about 1934. Does anyone know if there is a electoral list showing who lived there? county of Birmingham they moved to Berkelley Road Hay mills I think. If not is there a INternet address for the Main Library I do not seem to be able to get in. It shows me all about the new one. Look I am so sorry it looks like a records and tips look up. But I thought the Brummies could give me a direction. Off to make another coffee to gee me up. You know this is a clear case of ask your parents about their parents and siblings before they pass on. Because you never know what might happen. Kindest Regards Pam

Hello everyone...I am back..what a mess my computer was. Son Keith had to reformat it. I hope I can catch up with you all..Marg I also love malt loaves..I had a few on my visit to the UK. your Highness I hope to be able to talk to you soon !! Will be back..Brenda

I am back again. John I hope you have not gone out on your BIKE as it will be hard going pushing the pedals up hill with all this wind about. Off to get my night cuppa and then pop into bed lovely it can blow like mad once I am tucked up nice and warm. So see you all tomorrow. Tat Tar June.

Hello everyone ! What good news that Jim is getting better - we miss his posts on here. June - i was tidying up leaves so they didn't blow into the pond - got to keep the frogs home tidy lol. Naughty you and Jan for calling me Percy :-((((( I know a little about gardening and was pruning a climbing rose today too. Still looking for dead rellies today - Jan is getting frustrated cos hers don't want to be found. Perhaps they are hiding from her lol. Rick.xx

Really pleased Jim is on the mend. Hope he and Mary stay warm and cozy away from this cold, wet and windy weather. Take Care, Pat x
