	Sheila, that mattress business, sounds horrendous. Hope that's the end of it now. Sounds like everyone's been busy today. I took Mark over to Wimbledon to visit the elderly couple in the house next to us. The lady had knitted him a couple of cardigans - they were beautifully made. Also, two little cardigans for the girls - so they didn't feel left out. I was really touched by her kindness. Fitz, sounds well into this geneology business Jane. It helps when there is a little intrigue lol . Since retiring, my dad has been delving and it looks as if he's becoming hooked too lol Hope everyone has a lovely weekend. I'm off to a wedding tomorrow, so won't be about. Forgot to say... Ann, your poor hubby...glad he was ok though.

Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 25,620 Send Message	Catie,I can't tell you how interesting Fitz's lot are.There could be a possibility that he is related to people who would have been the richest people in the UK at one time.But we may never know for sure. It would be great if your Dad found some interesting things. How kind of that lady to knit those cardies for the children.We have just had an invite to a wedding next July.I went to one in Dubai in March,we have another on the 28th Nov.I have never been to so many lol.So I need a new outfit for next month and another for July !!!!!!.It is all the same family so I can't get away with wearing the same thing twice lol Fiona,I'm glad Sofia is back to her happy self.It's taken a while hasn't it.

	Morning All, Bright and sunny here, so I'm off out now with my camera and spare battery this time!! Want to see if I can get some more of those deer.....clashing antlers hopefully. Hope it is as sunny where you are going Catie for the wedding and that you have a lovely day. OH is off somewhere past Chester for footie, wanted to take me and drop me off at Cheshire Oaks Retail Park, but I declined this time, thought it would be a lot colder than it is..........be nice to do my own thing today anyway. Will catch up with posts later and will email you later too Jane. Have a nice day everyone......BBL
