Oh dear me Huia, I do hope you sorted the words out that you are going to sing for your sister, you might end up being thrown out, and having to sing for your supper outside the restuarant.
I'm sure your sister will love it honey.
You never know you may be discovered by a talent scout, and then we can say we knew Huia when she was a cyber friend of ours.

Sylvia it sounds like you had a lovely time at your friends. How was your male friend, is he still as confused, bless him.
And how did he react to the party? was he surprised, or did he know it was being held in his honour.?

Oh Puss, Oramorph does rot the teeth doesn't it. I know that when my son was on it, for a considerable time, after his back operation, his teeth soon became decayed. Fortunately he didn't suffer with any stomach problems while he was on it.
I bet those gall stones were painful in passing, you poor thing, it was bad enough when my O.H passed a kidney stone, I thought he was passing a football the noise he made.

Caz, when Roly wakes up, (which is quite often I might add during the night on his toilet trips) he would need to be awake enough to raise the bed head, but he would rather struggle than be bothered as he puts it "Faffing around".

I don't know about the rest of the U.K, but it has been very cold here today.
We had hailstones at lunch time, and it gradually got colder and colder during the afternoon.
I do hope it brightens up next month for our week in Yarmouth.

See ya all later, love Mo xxx

Hello Sylvia. I go to my sister's 80th tomorrow. I plan to sing e-e-e-eighty, now you are eighty, you are not the g-g-g-girl that you used to be, when the k-kettle boils in the kitchen, you'll be out there making a c-c-c-cup of tea. She never was a tea drinker. I might come up with a couple of different ending lines though. I have had different ideas. Maybe: you'll be making your husband a c-c-c-cup of coffee. He drinks it, she doesnt. Hmmmm, I need to decide soon which version I will use or I will get all confused and sing some rubbish. Of course they might stop me singing in the restaurant!

Huia.

Hi Mo, and everyone


we had a super time at the party, and on the Island.

We came back late Friday afternoon .......... it was glorious! The sun was shining, the water was calm, and the mountains were clear, with loads of snow on them.


But it was very tiring!

Mo I had to laugh at your pointing out he can't get himself up in a morning, what's wrong with pressing the correct button and lifting the head up, lol, men are so stupid sometimes.
The beauty of living here is that we have no gardening to do, we have a lot but also gardeners come in every week to keep them nice. At our other house we had a massive garden that took all day just to cut the grass, three lawns, I loved it though.
Looking foreward to my curry in about an hour, lovely.


Love Caz x

Caz, I really wish he would use the bed the way it should be used. It cost us enough as it was, and my thoughts are, we should have got him a normal double bed, but no, he insisted he wanted it.
It's like talking to a brick wall sometimes with him. Especially when he cant get himself up from the bed in the mornings. Oh well, I am not wasting my breath any more on him, stupid boy that he is.

Well our chinese was lovely, I really enjoyed it. I am sitting here feeling like a stuffed pig.

I was in the garden earlier, trying to clear some of the weeds that grow under our fence, from the house at the back of us.
I grabbed a handful of weeds, only to discover I had pulled a stinging nettle up. Oh boy, my hand is still smarting with the pain. There is never a dock leaf around when you want one, not even in the jungle of a garden at the back of us.
She can grow weeds like you have never seen, and she only has someone come to clear it once a year, when the tigers come out of the undergrowth,and threaten to eat her and her son. lol

See you tomorrow girls, love Mo xxx

Hi girls, well what a quiet day, lovely. I haven't spoke to Joyce today as our phone is dead, I can't get logged into my e-mail so can't get in touch with Jean, it was much easier when she was on here, hopefully she might subscribe again.
Mo I use my bed as it was meant to be used, I have my knees up and the head up however high I need them, I get a lovely nights sleep. What's the use of Roly having one if he doesn't get the benefit, I'm sure he would like it.
Curry for tea tonight so a late tea for us.

Love Caz xx

Hi there everyone,
I had a lovely E.Mail from our Jean last night. She is doing o.k,and enjoying her relaxation, while good ol J is keeping her in the custom she has become used to. lol
She sends her love to one and all, but deep down I think she misses us. I am keeping my fingers crossed that sometime in the future she will be back with us.
Sallie, a special message from Jean, she thanks you for the lovely Easter card.

Peace reigns in our house, it has been like a war zone for a couple of hours.
My son bought his three children to visit us.
It was "Nan I'm hungry, Nan can I have a drink, Nan can we all play in the garden" yes of course you can, but "Nan can you play with us" Cor I am worn out.
We have just finished the clearing up, and sat down for a peaceful cup of tea, bliss.
Chinese for dinner tonight, yummy, so I suppose I had better go and get it started. Bye for now. Love Mo xxx

Oh my word Puss, I can just imagine Joyce doing the dying swan bit, out of her chair.
I bet poor Jan nearly had forty fits trying to catch her. She's a girl that one, she an accident waiting to happen.
I hope that the lift has got straps on it, I dont fancy reading that she has fallen out of it, and down the flippin stairs. ( Please god don't let it happen to her )
Has your doctor not prescribed anything for your stomache. Do you think it is a side affect of any of the medications that you are on at the moment?
I haven't drunk in over 25 years, and to be honest, I don't miss it at all. I don't need a drink inside me to allow me to enjoy myself when we go out.
If there is music playing, and a dance area, I am well away, gone with the fairies thats me. My parents should have called me Tinkerbell.

Caz, I bet you use your bed as it should be used. Not like Roly, he uses it as a normal bed, without using the electrics at any time.
I am sure he's scared in case I do him some damage during the night, so he has disconnected the power to it.
We have separate bedrooms, because of his snoring, and even if I get up to go to the loo in the night, the floorboards squeek and he wakes up. I could never get away with doing anything naughty, lol

I have got to start accupuncture on the 26th of this month, I've got to get these darned muscles working properly, one way or another.
Need to improve my throw... for darts of course.

See you's all later. Love Mo xxx

It will Ann and I could do without that, I'm fed up of all these tests. Mo I have one of those beds, the district nurse got me it for my bad back, to say it's brilliant is an understatement, I love it.
Joyce had her stairlift fitted this afternoon, but says it is noisy and the dog doesn't like it,lol. It will be a lot better for her poor legs though.

Love Caz xx

Hello girls, sorry to be late visiting, but had to go for physio this morning, then we went down to see baby Lilly, and spent far to much time there. But she is such a joy to behold, and has us both in fits of laughter with her mischievious ways.
It's so funny watching her play with the puppy Poppy. S had to buy a new lead for the puppy when we were all out shopping.
When we got home, it was a fight between Lilly and pup, for ownership of the lead.
S had lost the original lead that they had for Poppy, and she has just txt me to say she has found it under the dog cage.
This is only a tiny wee puppy, so how has she managed to lift the cage and place the lead under it, we just dont know.
Maybe overnight she becomes super pup, flying round the room.lol

Sallie, sorry to report that we lost last night 5-4, but pleased to tell you I finished two games.......Look out girls, if my head gets any bigger, I wont be able to get through the door ;-)
Did you get all your shopping done today?
As you were saying earlier, it was lovely to see some new faces popping in to say hello. I just hope we see them again soon.

Caz, I can't believe your bad luck sweetheart, if anyone is going to have problems at the hospital, you are in the lead.
It seems that fate is against you every time, what with them losing your notes that time, and all the other mishaps you have had to undergo, it's just not fair.
God willing the scan will be clear enough for them to be able to read it love.
Stay as strong as I know you are mwah xxx

Puss, I can't have a plate throwing party, coz I have already broken most of them, and they are getting expensive to keep replacing, even though I might feel like throwing them sometimes, I keep myself in check and say NO dont do it girl.
We don't have any gentlemen followers on here, mores the pity. I think the thought of all us girls frightens the pants off them....and thats not a pretty sight in some cases. lol
Have you heard from Joyce yet about wether they have fitted her lift in yet.

I will be back later. Take care Mo xxx

Good morning girls,

Mo, how did you get on at darts last night, hope you and your team won. Like Ann, I don't understand the game of darts at all and can't even throw one, when I have tried it just hits the board or wall and falls to the floor.lol!!
Well you aren't on your own liking the smell of Deep Heat, both Jennie and Michael also likes it.


Ann, hope you and T have a good weekend at your daughter's. Have a good journey and take care.


Mummo, so pleased to hear that Ed is getting along OK, he has done so well considering his condition. As you said, being able to get around on his mobility scooter is great for him and gives some of the independence that he enjoys.......and saves on petrol.lol!! Having your daughter living near you again must set your mind at rest too knowing that she can be there in minutes if you need her.

Look forward to seeing you on here again soon, as you know this is a lovely welcoming thread, where we all have a good natter and where we are here for each other in bad and good times. So as the others have said, feel free to join us anytime you want, you are most welcome.



Florence, sorry I missed you yesterday, so just to say welcome to Mo's thread. We have all become good cyber friends over the two years since it was started so know each other quite well now, so if you would like to join us on here too, you will be most welcome.....the more the merrier.



Caz, missed you too yesterday, sorry to hear that your ankle is still causing you a lot of pain, just wish there was something they could do to help you.
My back is slowly getting better now, thank you.......at least I can now sit at the computer a bit longer to type messages to everyone.



Puss, how are you today? Hope you and OH are both okay. Did you enjoy Susan with numbers dropping in on threads day? It was a great idea of her's , I think that it would be nice occasionaly to perhaps have another 'dropping in day' . It was nice to 'see and speak' to members that we hadn't spoken to before.



Jean, if you are looking in, we do miss you on here, I keep looking for a message from you. Thank you for your Easter card, sorry I'm a bit late thanking you, but I'm afraid it's been one of those weeks, as you have probably read on here. Hope all is well with both Jeff and Debra.
Take care.



Joyce, I'm wondering if they have finished fitting your chair lift in by now.......hope they have got it all sorted by now.



It's a long time since we heard from Marie, I hope everything is alright with her and her family.



Huia, hope the meeting at the home went well for you. You seem to have been a very busy lady lately......just wish I had some of your energy. Take care and try not to overdo things.




Sylvia, hope you and OH will enjoy the weekend at your friends on the island and that the birthday celebrations will go as planned.



Linda, hope your vertigo is not as bad as it was and that you are able to do a few more things again.



Well I must get ready to go up to town now, I've been putting it off all the morning but I have to go now, so may speak to you all later on.


Take care everyone.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Hello all and welcome to Susan and Mau, nice to see you on here. Sally I hope your back gets better soon, it's very uncomfortable isn't it. Talking about pain, my ankle is painful anyway because of the cancer in it and arthritis just have to put up with it. I went for my ct scan yesterday and they couldn't find the vein to put the die in so I hope it turns out ok. Hello Florence, nice to see you on here, you must visit us more often.
Hope you are all ok.
