Julie, that's just how Mum does hers, listening to the 'Archers', when I was younger, it used to be every Sunday night at 7, listening to 'Sing Something Simple'! :)) can still hear that music in my head now :))

Morning Gwynne damp here in Manchester but not raining now, hope weather bucks up for you for your trip to Wales. Morning everybody! Davex

Well that sounded like a perfect ending Gwynne, am sure everybody understood how you felt, because they were all in tears as well! :)) Now you can have a lovely time and chill a bit (hopefully not weatherwise!) :)) We shall think of you here in the mornings, they'll be an empty cup! :))

Surely no more rain today folks, but it's looking a bit greyish! :)) Julie Linda and Annie, don't mention ironing, ( I don't like it!) :))

I just knew you would be on Jenny's thread about nails, Gwynne! :)) Magi, am glad you had a break, that was some bus ride there! :))

Before I nip off to get ready I must tell you about my wonderful drama group. (ages 14 - 26). The last 2 performances went like a dream. Almost full houses. They really outdid themselves and I glowed with pride. They bought me some flowers and a lovely hippy-type top. So I started my 'Thank yous' and I remembered everyone I wanted to thank. And I remembered to welcome the new members and say how well their debut performances had gone. Then it started to fall apart a bit. Lizzie (19) has been with one or other of my groups since she was 10. She has taken leading roles, been stage manager and has been a volunteer with the junior groups. She's also a great shopping companion. So I started to say how sad it always was to say goodbye to members who were leaving - she's going to university to do theatre studies in September. I looked towards her and she started to cry and that set me off. So the audience didn't hear all the nice things I was going to say about her because she was draped around my neck sobbing. I looked to some of the older ones hoping one of them would say something and they were all crying too. How embarrassing. We are so going to miss that girl. Gwynne (crying again - stupid woman)

Good Morning Gwynne and all folks, (David's late today!) :)) wasn't sure if we would hear from you today Gwynne, how did it go last night then? :))
