General Chat

Morning everyone,
just flying in to say goodbye for now before I put lappy away.
I also wanted to say what a great bunch we are on this thread. I am so glad I joined in last December and made such lovely friends.
See you in 16 days.
<3 <3 <3 and (((((((hugs))))))) for you all.

Morning All !

Dark and a bit wet this morning :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P

Pauline......I think you need a Plumber in Residence.....you seem to have loads of 'wee' problems with your 'Water Works' ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

I feel a lot better now that I've done something constructive.....I laid a new timber floor in one of my sheds yesterday.Great ! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) Using the power saw was a bit hairy....but I've counted my fingers and I still have ten ROFL

Perhaps I'll tackle another job today, without overdoing it. Can't be bothered with doing nothing all the time. There are jobs to do in the garden to prepare for winter, that should be easy enough.

There hasn't been a lot of coverage on the news about it.......but so that it dosen't pass totally without a mention......It's 70 years since the SAS were founded. What we owe these chaps cannot be measured in words. They do the job and slip away again. Brave lads.

Jean......you will still be up there on Cloud 9
:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Keep safe, keep well , keep smiling :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Have a safe journey and a wonderful time Cath.

Jean, that's brilliant news, I'm so pleased to hear it. I only came back on to see if you'd come back with good news.

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

George, it is the ball-valve that we have the problem with, it's been replaced loads of times but it just keeps going again and flooding the place. The plumber didn't turn up until about 7pm, he sorted it out for me but I've told him to replace the whole system inside the cistern. He's coming back on Friday to do it for me.

Marilyn, I'll go and have a look for that thread now.

Ta Ra Cath <3

Evening all,

Thanks Marilyn, have added too.

Jean I am so happy for you, what a fighter.
1973 was the year I married my hubby so I know it has been such a long time for you.

Cath have a great holiday. George Cath lives in The Channel Islands(Geurnsey I think). Hence she usually gets better weather than us.

We had sudden showers through today. Luckily I missed them.
Did the gym. Then went and bought cakes for hubby's work mates for afternoon tea !!! Used to be a beer or "small one" but not now with all the security at the airport and of course drink driving too.

I had my friend here for a cuppa and chat..... but no cakes LOL

Have a celebratory evening everyone

Linda :-) <3

Cath2010, your visitors have gone back to the UK, where are you.?

Rita, Foggs is a fibber, I only had one scone, honest....LOL :-D
the old boys tartan is Ramsay, your right Pauline, but you have to keep telling him hes a Jock..lol :-D :-D

Hello Marilyn Hope you enjoyed the lovely sunshine today. :-)

Stephen, Love the pirate picture, watch out for crocodiles...LOL. :-D

MO in Kent, have a lovely dinner.

What brilliant news Jeni, keep up the good work. It's so good that both you and Rita are both on the road to recovery.
All we need now is for Stephens eyes to get better, and we will all be up to par.

Have a lovely holiday Cath, enjoy yourselves, you deserve it.

Ohh Pauline,I do feel for you love. All that water everywhere, is a devil to get rid off.
You could do with calling a company out to clear it for you, and charging the water board for it.

Off for my dinner now. Byeeee

Wonderful news Jean <3 :-D


Have a lovely holiday Cath

<3

Hello my friends, thank you for all your thoughts and messages, you are all really great people.
Wine, Beer, Whisky, Brandy, Rum or Iron-Bru, help yourselves,
it is time to celebrate, I am clear of cancer for the first time since 1973,
[when I was very first diagnosed]
Only have to go once a month for scan, no more treatment needed.
Once again thank you all, you kept me going.
Jean xx

Marilyn I'm not going until the 11th. As long as I don't get snow! With Scotland anything is possible!
Stephen I didn't notice you changed your picture!
Pauline, I hope you get your bathroom sorted out ok.

Afternoon all.

It's lovely and sunny here today........... but windy.

We've had another problem with water, the bathroom's flooded. Water's been shooting out the top of the cistern and going all over the place. I've turned the water off at the mains and I'm waiting for the plumber coming out............. again!

Rita, I was thinking that could be 'Ramsay' or 'Campbell' tartan, we'll have to wait for Foggy to come back and tell us.

Foggy, I agree, I think if you're born in England........... you're English, and I also believe you............ about George having 3 scones.....LOL.

Stephen, is that King Charles on your avatar? It's a very fancy hat!!

Cath, hope you have a brilliant holiday.

Fingers crossed for Jean..... 0000000000 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 0000000000

Hello all

Foggy I beleive you thet George had three scones, So Foggy what is your tartan it is hard for me to see ? it seems to have red in ? is it a Campbell or a Stewart ?
I am doing my washing this morning first lot in , waiting for that to finish then I can put the next lot in.

I have trouble with my printer last night I had to pull the plug out of the socket as I was scared it would catch fire. *I didnt seem to be able to shut it off, so I have to take alook at that later today.might be a lose wire.

Good Luck Jean my thoughts are with you. for good news. today.
Have a good day everyone, bless you Stephen that you can joke about your eyes,

Rita
