hi every one quick look in while my coffee is cooling then must get stuck in again its a lovely day here so will get some chores done again

A very good morning to one and all,
slept much better last night .
Ed's getting quite excited as he can see a few planes in the sky, lol.
BC, all hugs gratefully accepted..........thankyou.
Lovely sunny day here but a bit of a chill.
Hope you all enjoy your your day :)))

Good morning everyone, how silly to get excited at seeing vapour trails in the sky!!!

OH off playing golf somewhere the other end of the Cotswolds, I have a hair appointment (get rid of grey day!), and for some reason my computer is slow so I guess something somewhere is updating itself!

BC, 'set alarm?' Since retiring that is the best thing I don't have to do, I love getting up at all different times.

Mummo, I hope that the diary etc will help Eddie get closure on whatever is preying on his mind and aid his recovery.

Have a lovely day

Good morning Daff and all) I keep forgetting to set my alarm so I wake up at all different hours. First of all, as I have been thinking of you, I want to give a big hug to Mummo and Ed whose lives turned upside down one day and hoping this diary idea will help him. Also delighted Mau is almost back to normal:))

Another beautiful day here (how lovely to be able to say tha!) so have plans to go to B & Q (it's old dears cheap day there) to get some plants, and that hose thingy wotsit and look at kitchen sinks. Then have lunch with a friend.

Off now to take doggie to park. Have a lovely day everyone....mwahhhhh!

Good Evening All ~~~~~~ and hope everyone had a good'n :O) sun was shining here but cold!

I used to get talking books from the library Daff for my MIL I borrowed them a few times, they are great to listen to when ironing I 'read' lots of books that way!

Gave the bedroom a good old blitz this morning (well with a good help from OH) I was in the mood to chase the dust away, but must say when I'd finished I was 'cream crackered'!! oh to have the energy of when I did all the bedrooms in one day...I can just remember lol

What a good idea Mummo to send Eddie a day to day diary,It should help him a lot I'd think. He's done so well and I hope he continues to improve.xx

Dragon's all of a doodah LOL that sounds so funny BC she's fit enough to fancy a toyboy then? xx

Hi Daff, Hi All,
Daff what a eye opener we had when Ed went to the clinic...........we were told all about why certain things that he has been experiencing are due to his time in I.C.U., and as Ed can't remember his time in there they are going to send him a day to day diary of what they did for him and everything that happen while he was in I.C.U and they will arrange a visit for him to go and see the ward and show him everything. (l think this will help him as he has been having awful dreams and flashbacks)
Hope you have all had a good day.
Cup of tea calling me so see you later. x

Just managed to get on, met up with friends at Blooms garden centre for coffee, then had to do the T**** shop, by the time we had unpacked it was 2pm, a bit late for lunch, now T is doing something to the bath surround with sticky stuff so plans of cleaning the bathroom are shot! So I am on here, sunny outside but a nip in the air. Must be that d***** volcano, it is being blamed for everything else!!

Afternoon all, and hope the sun is shining on you all as it is here. Just got back in from the dragon's lair, she is entertaining a man friend this afternoon, he is a mere stripling of 94! lol and she is all of a doodah....

Am off for a wander round the the threads....

I am here just getting back into the work routine again lol got some chores to do was going to look in early but well time went

Mmmm thank you Ann... it was lovely.

Today, I have to get properly dressed again... I am not in the garden until later on. I have a parcel to post, and some stuff to collect from the GP... plus the rest of my last prescription, as they didn't have the full amount in. Only remembered it now I am on the last couple of pills in the pack and couldn't find the new ones, lolol

It is another bright and beautiful day.... so more time will be spent outside later on.

Ginny I do hope you are feeling much better soon... and Mau, shaking off the last of the labyrinthitis.

How did Ed get on at the clinic, Mummo???

~~~~~~ to Maz, hope all is ok with you???

BC...... *frets* did you get your cooker clean????

Right, brekkie, a quick wander around the boards, and then shower and out... R has just gone to work, so I can now get on.

Loads of love

Daff xxxx

Glad you had a good day.

Evening all.... just in, Ann, about 10 minutes ago.... I have had a brilliant day... Ann and I had a couple of drinks, a wander around the shops, then popped into the caff - had some memories did that caff...... started flirting wth R in that Caff, and got engaged less than 3 months later, lolol ;¬ We spent a good few hours together... which was lovely!!

Then went to see my mum... who had forgotten it was her birthday, and dad had needed some teeth out and a huge cyst removed this morning so was full of the drama of it all... two of my sisters escorted him there (one works as a theatre nurse in the dental place so was there anyway... the other was a dental nurse years ago)...... then siblings started to arrive, so more detail added... then I went to H's house (sister next to me)..... I have lots of siblings, lol) and had a drink and italian chicken... then home here.... so a wonderful day!!

And I have somehow ended up with a bag full of *talking books*.... not sure how, but it is in the bag I put the gifts for mum into... I did say to Ann, I bet I'll have it given back soon.... mum handed it to me and said.... *I just found this bag, don't know where I got it, but I have put these talking books in there for you*

I have no idea who actually wanted the talking books....... but it is clear that someone did, lolol

I am now exhaustimicated and ready for bed, lol....

Night night all......

Love

Daff xxxx

Edit..... by drink, I mean cuppa tea/cappuchino type of drink, not fally over type stuff, lolol xxxx

Well, Daff has obviously had a good day, so good she has not returned.
Hope your Mum enjoyed her birthday daff and that you and Anne had a good natter.
Ginnie, glad your cold is on the mend, nasty things coughs.

Hello everyone,
I have almost stopped coughing now and am feeling a lot better it has been years since I have had a cough and cold as bad as this was.

Garden is looking good but it's not down to me OH has been out digging and planting like a goodun.

Sorry to hear about you having shingles Ann hope you feel much better soon.

I will keep my fingers crossed that you get to go on your hols, BC as well.

Daff I hope you had a good meeting with Ann of GG and your Mom has a happy birthday

bye for now ~~~~~~~~ to all that look in
Ginnie xxxx

Lovely day here too, went for a 2-3 mile walk round the village this morning all the gardens look pretty, well the looked after ones do. Enjoyed the walk but was shattered when I got back, guess the shingles is not out of my body yet. OH is jet washing the patio so I am staying up here, he gets water everywhere and then the windows will all need cleaning!!!

Hi
~~~~~
Lovely day here.
Ed has another hospital appointment today at 2.00pm with a Critical Care consultant, not sure why but someone said its to do with his time in I.C.U.
Still will find out soon enough, lol.
Also heard today that Ed's rehab nurse is stuck in U.S.A. so not sure when she can get back but at least she is staying with family, so another week without her, but he is doing everything she taught him so l hope she will see some improvement since she's been gone ( 3 weeks now).
Well better get a move on, x

Morning all.... beautiful here, although the forecast is for rain.... lolol....

Yep, Maz... I used to leave them in with the cutlery, as well..... just in case, lolol

BC, sorry, lololol I wasn't much help was I???

I have to dash..... I am meeting up with Ann of Green Gables later.... unless she has backed out or forgotten, lolol..... she lives near my mother, so I shall pop into mam's as well... it is her 77th birthday today. Mam, I mean, not Ann GG lolol who is much younger!!

See you all later

Daff xxxx

morning all typical son is back after a very active sailing weekend gaining his level 2 in something lol but the washing he has'nt three loads here so hope it dries
The screws left over Daff were clean though !! did you use toothpaste to fill the holes in walls too
last day off college tonight

I thought flat Cola was for cleaning loos? lol What do I know , have never been very good at the housewifey stuff. What a beautiful beautiful sunny day and would you believe it, the poppies I bought yesterday have all bloomed today!

This is for our Mamiddau if she should pass by. Be still our beating hearts! Did you happen to see Stringer on the Jonathan Ross programme? Yes the very one, he of The Wire!!! He looked fit....lol....

Hope you all had a lovely day, am off to buy a Universal Hose Adaptor.......BC XXX

Evening all..... Maz, did you always have a couple of screws left over? lolol

BC... FLAT cola... has to be the real thing ;¬)).... dab it on and leave overnight.... it's a bit hit or miss for me... I used to end up with the toxic stuff in the end, lol.

These days, I would use bicarb... mix to a paste, and dab on, leave an hour or so, and then wash off..... but it takes a couple of goes.

Me? These days, I'd buy a new oven, lolol!! ;¬)) One of those ones where you turn it up full blast for 10 minutes and then rinse under the tap........ my SiL has one and I am GREEN!!

I have had a busy day in the garden... my finger nails are stinking.... and I am off for a long hot shower and bed, lolol

Love
