Evening girls,

Managed to get to the commputer as Top Gear has just started and the seat in the study has become vacant!!

I've had a nice week end, we went up the coast this afternoon and had a cuppa at Cromer, it was lovely. Then went a few miles up to Sherringham and got some fresh crab to bring home and it really was lovely. Got to say it was a one of the best week ends we've had in a while.

Dorest is a place that I've never visited, but I've heard it's lovely so hope you both enjoy your breaks.

I feel tired so maybe will sleep better with all that fresh sea air in my lungs!

Night ladies,

Pam.xx

Parts of Dorset feel like the rest of the country felt years ago, if you see what I mean, totally unspoilt and so peaceful, some very pretty villages too. I am looking forward to it.

Evening all
Had a nice evening out on Friday caught up on all the family news with the girls next time we meet up I'll be a granny and one of the other ladies will have been married it will be her second marriage.

What a day!!!! OH was up at dad's all day due to this gas problem there has been an army of gas men in & out all day and poor OH has had to cope with dad as well, trying to tell the men what to do and complaining about the banging and drilling, every time he looked out of the window and saw the vans he kept saying whats going on why are they in my house, no body told me they were coming what is going on.
at one point he asked OH why are you here do you work for the gas what are you doing in my house, totally confused.
Glad they are finished in the house and will be back tomorrow to fill in the holes, thankfully dad will be at the day centre(breathes a sigh of relief)

It's been quite chilly here today more like an Autumn day than summer wore trousers and a jumper to church and a jacket too, won't belong before the old tights are back on.
I'm of to watch the TV for a bit before bed ,hope you all have had a good day
night night

Morning all,

Oh what a hot night...we were very busy and I had the misfortune to be working with a care assistant who runs around like a blue ar*ed fly!! Not the way to be when you're dealing with elderly and frail people, that's when accidents happen....made my feelings known too!

Ahh well off for my shower and bit of breakfast and then to bed...speak later girls and I hope you all have a lovely day.

It was too hot last night,tossed and turned,as did OH.I dreamt that I had gone to an island with my neighbours and it was a garden centre.Somehow someone stole my clothes.( I don't know how) so I got stranded lol,and eventually I took clothes from the shop(gardening clothes) and got home the next day.
I am boiling at the moment and am sat under the fan.Need to cool off before going in to town.

We were at the Drs yesterday as OH has a chest infection. Got on to the subject of longterm diabetes care and how things have changed. Told him about being laughed at 40 yrs ago because we asked for help with sexual problems and lack of function. Said nowadays with Viagra there are few problems and did we want to try. We laughed and said it's a bit late now, too many other problems for it to be worth it. We were all having a good laugh, and when I opened the door to leave one of the practice nurses was stood there looking very puzzled! Not the usual sound heard there. My OH was not well, and I said to the Dr, he's not as tough as me, and his reply, under his breath, was, that would be difficult! Dont know whether to be insulted. Lol.

Does your Dr know you well Jean????

Hope your OH recovers from his chest infection soon, and I hope the laugh made your Drs day!!!!

A bit off topic but reminds me of when the doctor asked OH if he had noticed any deafness lately and OH said 'only according to my wife'.

Ann, Dr has known me about 28yrs. He knew me when I worked at the local hospital and has seen me through most of my problems. Probably wouldnt have said that to anyone else but he's very human!

Hi girls, nice to have a good rapour with your GP i think, my GR is a nice chap. usually now though if i go to the Drs I see the Nurse GP...she just puts everything down to the change with me!! Don't go to the doctors unless I really have to!!

Yes Fiona, not as many posts as we used to have on this thread but it could be down to all this very hot weather that we seem to be getting of late...we're all to hot, sweaty and knackered I reckon! (I know I am!!! ha ha )


hope you're all keepng okay, speak soon...

Hi ladies,wonder if anyone else is knackered for the same reason as me?I've had the pleasure of looking after my 6year old grandson and 2 year old grandaughter 9 hours a day for the summer holidays.Much as I love them it can be a long hard days work especially when the weather 's bad and we're confined indoors,thankfully school goes back today so it's just me and Sophie and I can usually convince her that a nap in the afternoon is a good idea,something she wouldn't even consider while her brother Gregor is here.An hour of peace makes all the difference! My mother never watched my kids, when they were small, for more than a couple of hours at a time now there are times when I think she was very wise ,though there are days when I laugh from 8.30 'til 6pm at the silly things they say and do.

Morning ladies,

Wow Patricia I admire your stamina! I must say too that I'm very envious as I'm not a granny as yet and I can't see me being one for a while yet either. My dear old dad was a great help to me when my two where small, he had the patience of a saint and they adored him, he was so easy going and like you, sounds a lovely grandparent. Keep up the good work and as you say they go back today!!!

Seems like another warm and sunny day here again, hope that you all have a nice day and a safe one.


Pam.
