hi Jane what a afternoon waited 3 hours at hospital lots of urine samples given and blood now my ho is home resting with some medicine and loads of lemon and barley which I had to boil and forgot it and it burnt but anyway try tomorrow its the bottle stuff now I am afraid. my son in law
retrieved the panties if you could call them that second pair
of hers blown in tree and my sun umbrella landed on the veranda after a huge gust of wind. I do not have a way with animals most either bite me or wee on me .I once
gave a camel a biscuit in Tunisia and it bit me and it was surposed to be gentle.The hospital used to be just round the corner but have moved it 5 miles away.Car park was full and a very rude man told us that we needed ticket to park after 2pm and it said very clearly no charge for car park no after 2pm.

Lol Frank.I am just a lovely Devil.
Just spoke to my Sister.She has just got home from the cruise in the Norwiegan(sp) Ffiords.She has had a hell of a time with the In-Laws.She said she didn't ring me while she was away ,because she would have cried down the phone.Her Inlaws are very Selfish people.They never gave my sister and her OH a moments peace.Even barged into their cabin as theirs was being cleaned ,and my sister was naked.MIL said ,go and get dressed in the bathroom!!!!!.So her OH was passing clothes in through the door.I think he should have had the b***s to say why don't you go for a coffee or something and we will see you in a minute. I will say no more lol.They will never ever go on holiday with them again.My sister said going on the cruise with me and our Mum when she had Dementia was a breeze compared to this one.

I have never seen a sheep in a bikini either!!!!!!

I will send you the fairy pics when I find out where I have put them. Have to corn the chickens now and feed the hungry.

Not a bad Donkey day today as Morrisons was quite quiet. Think they must have all been down the beach today with it being a nice sunny day.

Catie I see Jane told you about Donkey Day when I feel like a pack horse!! Just my silly name for shopping day.

I don't think I ever wore a Bikini.I did have something that was a bikini from the back ,but had a strip at the front that joined the top to the bottom,with a ring in the middle.I think I was about 18 then.I wouldn't dare put any kind of swimwear on these days.A pair of shorts and a strappy top is as far as I will go these days lol.
The news is on at the moment and they are talking about these fish that nibble your feet.I would love it ,and my feet would be new feet afterwards.Heaven !!!!

Ralph's been up and down over the last weel, sometimes in pain etc and when so his temper's understandably on a short fuse.

But, having said that, a nurse said to me over the phone earlier today that there's a real chance of him being discharged tomorrow. He must be on the mend.

Like I said Jane my feet would kill the fish .But would think
it would be rather a sensual feeling .I once had a spotted red and white bikini but then I was eight stone not .........
well anyway I once lost the top in the sea it just came undone and was calling my friend not Beryl did have others
more sane and she had to wade into the sea and put the towel round me . The bikini top was found on the beach
next day rather sandy and the colour had run.My legs were a bit pink also and my you know where.

So pleased about Ralph how longs it been since he had the operation. The nurse I spoke to said about 5 to 6 days
It shows you can get over these traumas the body is a wonderful thing. well off to nurse hubby now.

Ho was rude so back again I am waiting for my son in law
he is so funny he cut the hedge and at the back of our garden is some waste ground where everyone dumps the rubbish so he threw all the hedge cutting over the fence
a policeman had gone round to that waste ground to see
if anyone had thrown tyres on it that were stolen from a garage and nabbed son in law squashing the hedge cutting down to make room for more and thought he had put all the rubbish there .I left him arguing with the policeman I bag mine Am I mean or whot.

I was thin but when we first got married we used to dine out a lot and I got huge used to stuff everything in site and
when we got our first house we could not go out much
and so stuffed more.

I was never thin Sheila.But my slimmest time was probably between 16 and early twenties.I squeezed into a size 12 wedding dress,and when `i say squeezed I mean squeeze lol.The relief when I took it off .........bliss. I had been to weight watchers for a month or two before the wedding.I think I should have stayed with WW !!!!!!

Sheila

Sheila Report 16 Aug 2010 19:56

We all seem to rush to Weight watchers Jane to loose weight .I have lost weight now but last year was huge and like I said got stuck in everything once got stuck in our
bath and had to get my daughter to haul me out. Did the dress look nice on the day. those pictures are most interesting and I moan about what happens to me.

I once had to attend the dept of urology at the Freeman Hospital. They told me to bring "a sample"
I filled a Lucozade bottle,no kidding.

They only want a few millilitres
