George I dont faint with injecttions I am so use to them now.
Pauline the injection was for flu only this time not a combined one with the swine flu.
but this should give my friends on here a laugh.

five men sitting on chairs facing five elderly women all waiting to go in for our flu jab. Nurse came out and called Mr Hutch please he went in. then she came out and asked for Miss Rabbit. that started a giggle with us women.even the men were smiling.
Then one of the women said have you notice all five of those men young sat with their legs wide open I looked around the surgery room and sure enough every man sat with his legs wide open one of the women said I wonder why that is ? i wont say was repeated but we started laughing I dont know what the nurse thought five old women going for their injections crying with laughter.they must have thought we had been drinking.
I came back to the flat and felt so tired I didnt dare go and lay on the bed incase I fell asleep.

Afternoon all.

Ah, a few of our lost souls have returned, just as well we've kept your seats warm. Better get some tracking devices fitted in case any of you get lost again.

We've got sunshine today and no rain.......... just a gale force 9.

Shelly, I've had no problems with Firefox.

Hope you're OK after your jab Rita.

Good to know you're feeling better now George.

Happy Birthday to Linda's FIL. Hope you all have a lovely day.

Oooooh thanks for sending out the Marines Marilyn, I had a great time with them.
I think I got lost days ago, and couldn't find my way back, but it was a wonderful dream island while it lasted.
Lazing on the golden sands, palm trees swaying in the breeze, cool drink in my hand, and a big handsome hunk waving a big palm to cool me down.
Huh!!! I can dream can't I. I woke to a cold windy day,that threatened rain, but by this evening it hadn't arrived.

Oh and by the way, my membership was renewed last week, so sorry, you are stuck with me. lol ;-) ;-) ;-)

I hope everyone is well. Take care, love to all. Mo xxx

Hello Everyone, I hope you all enjoyed the sunshine, I took Oscar to the caravan, it was so hot, just the sort of weather you need when your caravanning, I took oscar to Hunstanton Green for a walk on Sunday evening and there was a massive traffic jam of cars leaving, I've never seen so many people, then when I got home yesterday afternoon the airport on my Apple computer was turned off, I rang BT who could not help and then I rang Apple who did not know what to do, so they mad me an appointment to take the computer into them on friday, I fixed the problem myself in the end and cancelled friday.
Off to do some research on the tree now, I have the most difficult ancesters, i now have a family who on the 1851 census have one surname and on the 1861 census have another surname.

Health is the top most of importants on any list. even with money you do not get good health.
The bonus is if you have money as well as good health.

I had my blood test done I get the warfarin to -morrow and the thyroid one on friday.. I asked the Hospital nurse if she was feeling better ? as she cancelled the blood test for last week,. she told me . she was walking her dog and a women let her greyhound off the lead which spotted a dog he fancied and knocked Marion off her feet crashed into the back of her leg.she said it is still very sore, she has to have x_rays tomorrow to make sure everything is OK.

I brought a small fresh chicken while I was out. thats in the oven cooking., so that will be three days dinners.

I also brought a "Thank You "card for Les who did my computer for me
He would not let me pay for the cable he also gave me.

have a good day. it tried to rain here a little while ago and the sky is grey so maybe we will have a down pour.
