Hi Ann, before l came here l used to live in a 4 bedroom, 2 sitting rooms and a conservatory house so had to get rid of some things then and now having to get rid of more is :((((
My son has take quite a few bits as he has just got a flat but there is quite a bit more , this flat l;m going into is ground floor but no garden so all my things from there have to go but as you know people only want to pay silly money for things, l had a patio table, chairs, umbrella stand and umbrella which cost me £250 last year and l have just sold it for £25, l haven't got time to hold on for better prices so l suppose something is better than nothing.
Right better carry on.........................its gone 5pm and still no keys.
Keep calm, thats what l keep telling myself, lol. x

PS...........Keys have just arrived.

Morning Daff and all and good luck today Maz, with all you have to do. Keep taking the pills! Mummo I hope everything works out well for you and Ed, and that things look different today. At least you have the key so they can start decorating. The best of luck to you both.

Beautiful blue skies here this morning. Had a lovely day with Mau and her OH, it's a bit cold to sit outside on the patio yet, but soon I hope.

Hope Daff is tickety boo and the sun is shining on Ann and everyone else is jogging along nicely. BC XXX

Morning all, lovely day so far,but quite cold.we are going to get some plants today I made a box to put some in,as we dont have a garden as such, but I do like to have some flowers in tubs...

Daff, S finally got to Portugal, he called last night to say the accomodation is fine, but the flight was weird, it seems if you fly with R*****R you dont have booked seats you just rush and sit in any seat so all the folks dont get to sit together,bit of a problem if you cant rush or if you have youngsters..... never heard of that before... I suppose it is because the seats are cheap....

Hope all is well with you and yours, have good day...

Love Jean xx

Morning all... well, just, again!

I have been to GP for my oil change and MOT.... got some more heavy guns as I am now out of them.... did a quick shop, and then came back and had a long chat with a lady from Age Concern... very useful info.... and then watered the plants having a sagging session... they look much perkier now, lol

Jean, I am so pleased he is at last able to have his holiday.... I'd have to find a box to put plants into, as well... I'd be devastated with no flowers to brighten up the place.

BC, it is lovely here as well, a little bit crisp outside, but very pleasant. Glad you had a lovely day with Mau and OH...... nice to meet up with friends, isn't it?

Maz, it must be so exciting! I will keep everything crossed for good weather!

Mummo, I don't know what to say.... I would find it really hard to condense all my stuff into a 1 bedroomed flat. (((((((((hugs))))))))) for you both.

~~~~~~~~~ to Ann, who is hopefully sat somewhere pleasant in the sunshine having lunch and a carafe!

I am off to tidy the kitchen.... it looks like a bombsite!

Love and (((((hugs))))))))

Phew, just come in for five minutes to cool down, cloudy first thing but really hot now. It started to drizzle lunch time when we were down La Paz so we popped in to the restaurant that looks over the bay and had vino blanco and shared a lovely salad and egg toastie. Going back out again in a minute to lie and read.

Hello everybody, back home after having a marvellous week with family. I envy you Ann,first thing we did was switch on the central heating,the house feels freezing cold!

Hope you feel great after your oil change & MOT Daff....think I could do with some oil or lubricant for my poorly feet. I did suffer with them yesterday but worth the walkabout to be able to meet up with BC again........who is a welcoming hostess and also makes a very tasty,tender Irish stew,....so tasty me and my OH had secs.......er seconds lol
We had a lovely time and drank a few glasses of wine ,like you do :O) )

Mummo I'm sorry you've been stressed about the move it must be very difficult for you both,hope everything goes well for you now. x

I can feel your excitement Maz,family weddings are really wonderful,hope all is going to plan.

Morning Daff and all and welcome back Mau and hope your tootsies are well rested now. It was lovely to see you both again:)

Lovely morning again, slight nip in the air, spent yesterday trying to get internet back for a friend of mine, the nice man at TM talking me through it and after an hour of click this double click that, we discovered her stick thingy was not connected...he was very kind about it! lol

Boozin pal coming over this evening so will try and think of something different to cook, or else I shall get one of those jolly packs of Indian food from W*****se. Sorted!

My patio at night is like a circus. I have added another string of solar lights, so I now have one flashing lot shaped in a heart on the jasmine, four Starbursts which change colour, and another string of coloured lights (non flashing) intertwined between the plants. Tasteful it is not! pmsl....

Hope you all have a lovely day. Mwahhhh BC XXX

Good morning all.... am just popping in quickly..... Top Doctor Man Day today.... it is 10 weeks since I last saw him, so am a little bit nervous, but feel fine otherwise, so I know I am just wittering for the sake of wittering, lol

Mau, visit to GP yesterday was good.... and feel heaps more relaxed as a result... I shall be brilliant when I get back from TDM who is going to tell me wonderful things, I can feel it in my bones, lol

So pleased you enjoyed yourself with BC, and hope your tootsies have recovered now!

BC have a wonderful time with your boozin pal, and make sure you wear suncream... sunburn can play havoc, you know ;¬)) Your patio sounds wonderful... I bought a couple of boxes of those sticky in plastic colour changing solar lights from B & Q last time Littlie was here.... she absolutely loves them... I want some on string now, to dangle from the trees and trellis... I love lights.... the more the merrier!

Ann, I am so pleased the sun has at last shown it's face for you..... when it is as warm as that, you need a bit of drizzle to cool you down.

Don't know what excuse Madame Weather has here though..... it is dull and overcast, and quite chilly this morning. I am hoping we go to the Coach and Horses on our way back, and have some lunch there.

Well, I must be off.... R has finished in the shower, so my turn now..... speak later when I get back.

Have a wonderful day, everyone

Love

I am back, lol..... and lots of good things said... even my little platelets have made a valiant effort and improved a little bit.

The tiredness that I have been getting (which may be down to feeling a bit low) might also be thyroid... so that is being checked... TDM is having my bloods checked for that, and will write to me with the result.

Other than that.... I am doing well, and yep, BC... a big glass of sunburn!!

So, all continues to be well, he is very pleased with me, and I see him in 10 weeks... the end of July! That is amazing!

So... off to have some lunch now.... it is drizzling outside, so R isn't sure whether to mow the lawn or not.... we have a petrol mower, so it should be ok.

Love
