General Chat

So sorry to hear of your loss Ann,all my contacts have gone now. but at least you have the memories... no rush with th pics, you know me love looking at photos, take care ....
love Jean xx

Sorry, missed a couple of days on this thread although have been around a bit on other threads. Wednesday was out most of the day. Yesterday was out all morning then when we got home had a card from my cousin's husband telling me that my 80 year old cousin had died on 29th, peacefully. She had had heart failure for quite a while and not been a well person for many years. However she was the one cousin (Our Mum's were sisters) who kept in touch, we used to exchange letters by snail mail, she was the last person with whom I could share memories so it is quite upsetting to think she is no longer with us. So I spent the afternoon making a card for Fred and the family.

T has gone to golf this morning ans dso far I have done a load of washing, including stripping the bed, and cleaned the bedroom. Now just off for a walk round the shops to collect the papers.

Jean not put the photos on yet as I have not had time. :-) :-) :-)

edit to say my cousin was actually 82 so a good age really for somebody with so many health problems.

Morning all, hope you are all geared up for the big do.... Mo you can get union jack keks but knowing you you will probably have got some...
were is Ann , havent seen her for a bit on here hope she hasnt done a runner with all this intimate chat.... come back lovey we need some stability on this thread....were are your pics I keep looking but no joy as yet....puss its good to have a bit of a giggle now and then , you have to have a sense of humour just to come on here,but sometimes we need to think of our lovely friends who are a bit under the weather, so sending love and prayers for Caz who is in a lot of pain at the moment also,our Sallie who could do with a hug , anyone else who is feeling a bit naff we are sending love and positive thoughts to you all....at the moment I am tickity boo.... which for me is a blessing..
just got another outlet for my cards, so have a good excuse to carry on crafting...have a good day and big smiles to all you meet who knows it could be just what they need

WMSL specky is wondering what im giggling at lol. :-0

Too much info Mo....tsk....

and lady you better win at the darts I have 20p on you.....or else.....

love Jean xx

Oooooo Lorraine you saucy minx, fancy leaving the evidence behind, tut tut, you didn't have a good teacher did you love.
Our Jean taught me everything I know, but I was never quick on the uptake, so she left me behind still trying to fathom out what she was on about. lol Never was a one for fancy goods me, no, my navy blue knickers from my school days had to do. Weeeell I had to put me hanky somewhere didn't I.
Never a dull moment, if my OH got bored, he could read the weekly news on my BTM from the news print. This was off course before they put toilet paper onto rolls, and im indoors got fed up of cutting those little squares out of news paper,and hanging them on the nail in the toilet. lol ;-)
I'm going now, before Jean tells me orft mwah Jean luvs ya.
Byeeee everyone.

Thanks Mo that means alot, gawd id hate to upset anyone, im still on cloud nine with my daughter getting a job when its so difficult, just hope she has the stamina her mum had at her age work all day and play all night (darts) lol.

Oh dear i had a email earlier from the lady whos cottage we stayed at, apparently i left some personal items of certain nightwear when your in the mood in my case my special nice undergarments yikes, but she wants 50.00 to post it, think it will be cheaper to buy some new or just forget about it lol , oh well the sea moved we didnt .

we are so happy the way we are, its weired with the kids all left home, we actuall chat in detail to each other.

hello everyone xx :-D

Hello gels,
Well I have to admit, I hadn't guessed at first that dejay was our Jean, but then got to thinking to meself, how come this stranger knows so much about me.
I thought we maybe had a GR mole amongst us, or perhaps she was working for MI5 or something like that.
But then my past is not that interesting, so poo pood that idea.
Oooh she a wicked little minx isn't she, ( but dont tell her, we love her anyway, and will forgive her )

Lorraine, many of us would like to trade our bodies in for a new one, we've all got bits that dont work as they should, and in my case, I think when I was made, they didn't add a brain, and threw away the mould afterwards, there cant be many as scatty as me.lol
We all accept each other as we are love, and if we say something out of turn sometimes, it doesn't really matter, we are what we are at the end of the day, and not one of us says something to hurt or offend the others intentionally.
So just be your own lovely self please, and dont worry.

Oooh Linda, sorry to hear your daughter was feeling unwell, but how great to have little man all to yourself.
I loved giving our babies a bath, and the smell of all the John*ons products on their fresh clean skin is lovely. I think I used to be hooked on the smell of baby powder, when my children and grandchildren were tiny. ( Yes strange woman arn't I ) Even now, I like to smell nice and fresh, cant stand smelly sweaty bodies,especially if it's a hot day, as it's been just lately.

If I don't come back later, you will know I am away to my darts, but I will return tomorrow.
Take care everyone. Love Mo xxx

Linda xxx <3 <3 <3 <3

Jean, have you seen all my blogs? I have been putting some photos on FB as well.The rats will be a permanent part of my life I expect, although I havent caught any for the last few days, but there will be more. One of the facts of rural life.

Huia.

so onwards and upwards so they say whoever they are bye for now Jean xxx

Good morning to you too, Jean........and of course to all of you.
It's lovely to see you back, really missed your chats too.


It's a lot cooler here this morning and it's raining, so it looks as though our British summer is back to normal.lol!!

I had quite a full day yesterday so didn't get a chance get on here.

As Sylvia has already said it's been fun to watch this thread, with each one of us welcoming you and telling you 'our life story' of which you already knew.lolol!!

Well I must try and do a few jobs about the house that need doing, everything at the moment is an uphill struggle, but I'm trying very hard to do things, some days are a bit easier than others.lol!!

I'm hoping that it won't be too long before I can make cards again, because once I can do that I know that I'm on the way up.


Speak to you all later.

Take care everyone.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Morning all
Thank you Jean. I use all ply's of wool as I have founs patterns on the internet for various wools. If you don't want the wool for anything else I can certainly put it to good use. Let me know if you can send it as I am in Berkshire , not too close to you.
More blanket done last night, after seeing the plumber who has come to give us a quote for a complete refit of the main bathroom. But they are so busy he won't start until late August !!! One other local company hasn't done an estimate yet, nearly 2 weeks now and it was being e-mailed..... not good.

Off to daughters again today as she has a tummy bug and worried about coping with the baby. Hubby is out at lunchtime for a meet up with his old workmates so it'll keep me occupied eh.

Linda xxx <3 <3 <3

Hi there Jean. I certainly didnt cotton on to who you were. But then I have been racing around like a scalded cat what with rats and working in the hospice shop and putting photos on FB and trying to get my new computer and printer/scanner working. Today I bought a powered hub but havent taken it out of its packaging yet. Tomorrow I am going in to town again to get a 'new' seat put in my wagon as the old seat is in very poor condition. One day I will get to stay at home and I will be wondering what to do with myself.

Huia.

Morning one and all, lot cooler today and drizzling rain, you can almost see the plants or in my case weeds, lift their heads up and take a big gulp.
so what plans do you have for today, I wanted to go and get some craft stuff , but had a little add up and its a no go..... bit of a blow really, I do like a bit craft buying therapy....so now I dont know what to do....
Linda, what ply of wool do you use for your littlies knitting , I have a bag ful of double knit wool, from when I made toys.....wondered if you would like it....or anyone else too....
its pouring down now....I used to like walking in the rain when I was younger, now I would just like to walk!!.....lol....dancing was a great favourite of mine too, we went to a party sometime ago and I was itching to get up ,so had a go but had to sit down as I was dizzy,Ah those were the days...singing was another pastime for me , now I cant breathe.....lol... well I have missed our chats as you can tell , so I wont bore you any longer take care out there, and keep smiling :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D..love Jean was Just xxx

Hi Mo yes indeed it is certainly warm in here, the trouble is we face west with the sun coming in the window from dinner time until it goes down, then of course we are on the top floor with all the heat rising. Yes I meant what I said that I was feeling old (ish) because it's my feeling poorly thats making feel like that, normally I feel young and up and runnig so to speak.
Jean I thought you were keeping deejay up a bit longer, I wouldn't have bothered joining in if I'd known.
