Not yet Fiona, he sits over the internet connector because it gets warm but he lost his balance and the next minute had disappeared !!! He's done it a few times and re-emerges round the side of the table and jumps back up.

Meant to say, isn't little Sofia growing up, she is so pretty. Love the photos Jane, you have a great view from your bedroom window.

Had a good clear out today of wardrobes. Huge pile to burn and big pile to give away. Then went to Barnstaple and bought some white paint to refresh mums room, which is now our spare room.

Liz some people are so thick arn't they!!!

I have a feeling it will be my turn for a mammogram soon.I know last time I went I was peeling from dreadful sunburn and flaking all over the place lol.Is it every 3 years?

Alfie still being a little devil then Maureen lol

Those ashtrays that Ann mentioned were a good idea.At least all the ash and butts were collected in the bottom and didn't blow around all over the place.

Fiona it must be awful for your daughter to have those patches ,but like you say at least she has the thick hair to cover them .Do you have to sleep propped up with that reflux?

Well my dress arrived ,and it is very nice.I just hope I don't look like a ship in full sail lol.It is RED and beaded.Heaven knows if will wear it again after the wedding.

Steak and kidney tonight with doughboys and new pots out the tunnel. Yes I only dig them as I want them. Brocolli, also out the tunnel, carrots celery. Cooked it last night so I only have to warm it up today.

Shush Mel .Don't let Chris hear you are having that.I never have kidneys ,and Chris loves them.The only time he has them is if they are on a menu in a restaurant .Chicken Casserole for us with mash tonight.

Evening everyone,

Been quite cloudy today but still mild , now the wind has got up .

I hope all those that had hospital or Dr appointments got on ok today .

I've had a day in Norwich with DIL and the two little ones ,bought a few more Christmas pressies and it feels as if i've walked miles, my poor feet are throbbing !!!!

Thanks for the jokes Frank, i'am still waiting for the Christmas email !!

Jane , some nights there's no indigestion other nights it just appears occasionally I have sat up and watched the TV for a while till it dies down , I try to watch what I eat, no real cream, just spray cream, no pastries, no butter, no nuts, I don't drink alchol anymore, it can give me heartburn and of course the dreaded hot flushes.lol
I am a bit of a scaredy cat I tend not to be brave and say "oh to hell with it I loved a glass of wine" don't like the after effects.

Well, I was very quick at the hospital, 15 mins at most. They have new digital machines, so I didn't have to stand on tiptoe this time or wait to see if the pictures were ok. LOL Shirl, 2 pizza doughs yes!! You get called every 3 yrs up to age 70 here Maureen, then you can request them after that.

We called for bite to eat on the way back and they served the gravy in little white jugs identical to the milk one for the tea!! OH managed to get the wrong one and pour gravy in his tea......a lot of it because it didn't change the colour!! Yuk lol When we got home, he hadn't locked the front door either......he's going to pot I think.

Alfie sounds like a little terror Maureen. I bet he would love it in our loft.......another mouse in the trap this morning.

Jane the dress sounds nice, just the accessories to sort now then.

Thank you Jane and Ann for your pictures
Had Ellen to the doctors again this morning.

Got stopped in the High Street by a woman allegedly doing a survey
Started with my alcohol consumption.Did I know the legal limit for driving etc.What did I drink (TETLEYS) Then she wanted to know about my house.Did I own it and where.Then she wanted to know what I did for a living.I parried this question a few times defore she realised its none of her business.Then she asked my name and telephone number and postal code.Regretably I told her.
Wish I'd made some thing up or walked away.

What's in it fr them? You could be talking to any one.

David, These people get paid for each survey they complete. It's called research !!!!!

Mandy will forward that vidio to you in a minute.

New dress then Jane. Will you get a RED HAT. You know the saying.!!!!

Glad you girls got on allright at hospital.

David ,you never gave all those details!!!!!.I did that once.I can't remember what it was now ,but I had obviously signed up for something without realising lol OH has never let me forget !!!!.If I see anyone in our high St with clip boards or anything like that I just give a wide berth and NEVER make eye contact .
How is Ellen?

Ann .Mel is having Dumplings (or dough boys)tonight.She might see them as something else now lol
Who on earth puts gravy in a tiny jug like that??That wouldn't be enough to cover a potato,and to put it your tea!!!!!!!!! .No locked door either .I think your OH needs an early night Ann lol

I have no idea what you are talking about FRANK lolol.I do know I might need a little bit of help though with holding my tummy in.Plus a new bra to give a little uplift as it is a lowish front.Maybe a hoist would help !!!!!

Frank, the email had down loaded ,but it won't open for me !!
What am i doing wrong ?

ANNX
Hi I hope you have good news Ann.!!!
I had the squashing bit it was painful and then a aultra sound and then saw a very nice doctor who said where did I feel the lump and I showed him and he examined me and said we have found from the mammogram and altra sound scan a calcified cyst and it showed up where you showed me .I said oh gosh what do I do about that and he smiled and said nothing. .

He went on to say the cyst in my arm was epidermal and had to be drained and in my case removed but calcified
cysts were harmless.But needed regular checks.

I must say the breast unit at the Queen Elizabeth hospital
was wonderful so well run no problem just had the examinations done ,some waiting for the result but not long I reckon the whole thing took about 2 hours.
I hope you get good news Ann

FIONA thank you for good wishes do appreciate it
Sophie was so cute in that little pumpkin outfit .

I was wondering why when I typed in Pumpkin I got a man half dressed in very skimpy shorts and had been typing pumpking which was a dating agency. I was after a book about growing pumpkins I noticed they do kits for growing pumpkins but that would be cheating
.
I am glad most people hate mammograms I was ok until they tried to take pictures of under my arm and I thought I was being bent in two and it hurt when you get over that its the other harm and you do it all over again. It seem to take longer than I remember still the results today were rewarding.

I see you got the audio lists then Frank I am tempted to open my christmas gift from a friend to listen to mine .
It is such a shame the Eastenders all moved elsewhere and the Jewish people sad really I have enjoyed my book and took another one to the hospital I bought from amazon
my ho loved the books he wants some for Christmas.

Sheila ,that is good news for you then.That will be a relief.What us ladies have to go through!!!!

Always you woman, What about us having to shave every day and "dressing to the left or right." you don't have that trouble !!!!!!

Mandy, I just don't know. it should play with no trouble.

Well i don't know Frank, i'll get son to have a look when he comes round in the next few days ,thank you for sending it .

Shelia ,good news for you ,bet you were relieved .

The wind is really strong here now !!!

Got the pictures Frank but no sound !!

My bed is calling so night night all xx

Windy Windy here too now!! Had to tie up the wind chime ,otherwise it would keep us awake all night.
Night Night all.
Vets in the morning with poor Chester's bum.
