But dont think you have ever signed off with Jane so naturally call you Helen.

Will call you Jane if you prefer.

Hi from not so sunny Tenerife.

Just reading through your thoughts on music, liked Charles Aznavour but AB, Jack Jones, now you are talking, have most of his records on CD. Went to see him live twice in Bristol, loved him. My Mum liked Josef Locke.

Fiona, hope that you can be sorted with medication and Marilyn glad you are healing OK.

Hi, Everyone,

Just posted on the 'other' thread......we had a lovely time today and it stayed sunny all the time. I nearly didn't get to Jane's though.....ended up in her local T***o car park at first!! lol

You must have been a bit disappointed with your results Fiona, but as you say, at least medication will be easier than regular trips for dialysis.

Hope your 'screw' is ok Marilyn and that everything is healed up now.

Cooled off now.Have just been to my neighbours as I am looking after the place while they are on holiday.Their fishpond has a leak so I stood with the hose pipe for about 15 minutes topping it up.I hope the rain we are due will top it up even more so I don't have to do it again.Since they went away on sunday the rabbits have taken over the garden as their playground lol

Hi AB, yes Ned Beatty played the role of Josef Locke in the film didn't he, it was one of dad's favourites and he was in love with Shirley Ann Field too!! I have the film on video, as i videod it for dad when he was alive, but there again i can't really watch it without getting upset. My daughter says, just let it out mum the last time I watched it with her, the tears just wouldn't stop. Especially the bit where he's in the boat singing Hear My Song...wonderful stuff! Yes he was wanted by the tax man wasn't he, as you say hardly a hanging offence! Compared of the evil things people get away with today.

This is very strange as we're talking about Charles Aznavour as well as Joe Locke, my dad looked a lot like him, he wasn't very big either.

I've put my bedding plants in my tubs and boxes and they look a treat, so a good days work...should sleep well tonight! Going to sort out a bite to eat, so will be back later i expect.

Morning Pam , family searcher.
yeh not to happy about the results , but seemingly I'm in the moderate level , the top number for the group is 49 and I'm 39 so Not a big problem
If they decide on pills thats ok means I hopefully won't need to go up to hospital ,can manage at home.

Family searcher I hate it when I can't remember names , it bugs me all day and then at bedtime it just comes to me. AH!!!!

Morning all, sorry to hear the results were positive Fiona, glad it can be sorted with medication though.

AB Ah lovely that you know one of my dad's favourites, Blaze Away! I have a CD here that i bought for him but i can't listen to it yet even though it's over four years since he passed away, i have tried but it has me in bits, especially Hear My Song.

Phew had a couple of hot surges this morning, hubby is at home today and he said wow you've gone all red...(he hasn't noticed before apparantly) I wanted to thump him!

Ah well be back later, off to buy some bedding plants for my tubs and flower boxes.

See you all later.

Pam. xx

Oh I was very fond of Charles Aznavour as well,
I have got his records in the loft, I loved *Ham* about a gay man at a bar.
his life story.
What about Dance the old fashion way........Lovely.

Well I wont be dreaming about him that's for sure he had a funny little face,
but a lovely unusual voice .....maybe because he was french .

Well night everyone ,I'm tired as well.
