Thank you Joyce, it has been received. I will send the photos to you and to Liz at the same time.

Huia.

Huia have pm you xx

Joyce, I dont think I have your email addy either. If you could please PM me with it I will happily send some. I must send some to Liz too, I know how much she enjoys the NZ calendars.

Huia.

Linda, nice to hear from you and to know that you are okay. It will be nice to do the things that you would like to do, now that you no longer have to childmind. As time goes by, you'll wonder where you had the time to look after the children.....I've found that as I get older, the time goes by a lot quicker than it did when I was younger.

Yes, I also spent a lot of the time watching the Royal Wedding......I thought that William and Kate seemed quite relaxed, and Harry just added a hint of humour to it all, at times.lol!!


Huia, I've received your photos, they are really lovely, thank you for sending them. I've sent you an e-mail.



Well it's nearly time for bed so goodnight everyone, sleep well.
Speak to you all tomorrow.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Hi Sallie and everyone
I am Ok just trying to get my head round finally giving up my childminding after nearly 25 years of caring for other peoples children and 32 years since my eldest was born,
I need to sort a plan of things to keep me occupied and achieve things I haven't been able to do beacause of or inspite of always having children around.
Decorating has been started and I need to get out into the garden too.
Holidays to plan especially if my hubby takes early retirement too. But he hasn't put a date on that yet.

I have been enjoying the lovely weather and spent a good deal of yesterday watching the Royal Wedding. I did enjoy that.

Thanks for thinking of me. Will try to update a bit more often.

Linda :o) XxX

Hello Ladies,

I've been out nearly all day, so haven't had time to get on here until now.

Like you all, I thought that the wedding was lovely........Kate looked beautiful and elegant .


Jean, try not to worry too much about having to see the Specialist (easier said than done, I know) but I feel sure that if it was something to really worry about, they would have been in touch before now. We are all here for you, and hope and pray that all will be fine for you. Please try and think
on the positive side. Sending you hugs and lots of positive thoughts.



Joyce, hope you are feeling a bit better today. I hope that it won't be too long before your new greatgrandson is born....thinking about you all and sending you lots of positive thoughts.



Mo, like you neither of my children knew my dad....Richard was born eight months after he died. I know he would have loved both Richard and Jennie, as they would have loved him too. I always believed that Richard was a gift for the loss of my father.
My mother died when Jennie was 12, and have always said, that when she has had very bad flare ups, and she's been frightened, she has felt Nan there, looking after her.
So like you Mo, I too believe that there is life after death. But of course, as you say there is no evidence to proove it.



Marie, I hope you will soon feel a lot better, stay in bed and look after yourself. I'll be thinking about you.



Sylvia, hope you are also over your cold, and feeling better. Take care!



Ann, hope you and T have arrived home safely and that you feel better after your cold.



Caz, I also hope that you are feeling a bit better from the chemo. I have some more photos of cards to put on Ann's blog....Alun has actually uploaded them from the camera to the computer, at last , so hopefully he'll send them over the next day or two.lol!!



Huia, I haven't checked our e-mails, so will let you know if I've received your photos. Hope all is okay with you.



Tess, I hope you are alright, as we haven't heard from you for a while.
I hope you had a nice Easter.



Jude, lovely to see you on here, as the others have already said, you are always welcome.
Hope all is well with your sister, now.




Linda and Liz, if you are looking in, hope you are both alright.



Well, I'm going to have a cuppa now.....after all my gabbing, I'm very thirsty.lolol!!!



Enjoy the Bank Holiday weekend, everyone.



Love and best wishes. Sallie.xxx

Love Dutchxx

Hello folks.
Joyce, my son never met my dad, as he was born in the June, as I lost my dad in the April.
Yet when he was very young, he told us so many things about my dad, he could never have known.
We would hear him chattering away to himself in his bedroom, and when we asked him who he was talking to, he described my dad to a T, even to the point of dad smoking his pipe, which he had given up, many years before we lost him.
When our son got to be about five, he stopped talking to his invisable friend. But we are convinced that dad came and looked after him for us,when we were not around.
I feel pretty sure that even though, the family will not feel your daughters presence, the baby will.
She will love this child, and nurture it from beyond everyones eyes.
She can rest in peace now love, and would want you to do the same, as she is probably willing you to do.
A lot of people, will probably poo poo my ideas, but I do believe in life after death, even though there is no real evidence of it. But each to their own I say.

Jean my love, have faith and strength, in the belief that you are going to be fine.
Whatever life has thrown at you, you have been one very strong lady, and will continue to be.
You know whatever the outcome of the results, we are all behind you, praying for you, and sending you our heart felt thoughts and best wishes.
Please try not to worry yourself to much, I know this is easier said than done, don't allow your mind to take over, push it to one side and think positive honey.

I will be back later, I have just bought two lovely Clematis plants, and want to get them into the pots before they dry out. They are sitting in the sink at the moment,having a lovely drink of water.
Bye for now. Love Mo xxx

Joyce I know it doesnt make it easier , but now your daughter can rest in peace and you can move on and look forward to the new addition to your family... hope you and Jan are doing o.k.

I had a phone call on thursday evenig from the MRI people and they want me to go and see the consultant on wed next week again in the evening and its in another town...I was told that the results would go to my G.P.but this is not the case so mind games are starting up again... still better to know than not...

Marie hope you are not coming down with anything nasty, bed is the best place if you are under the weather. will keep you in my prayers...

love and hugs to everyone love Jean xxxx

Love Dutchxx

I hope it is not the flu, Marie. Or did you just overdo it last night watching the wedding?

Huia.

Hello al
This has to be Quick as I am coming down with something I am aching all over, can some one email me with the result's for Caz please. I cant sit here any longer I must take some medication and get into bed Sorry
Marie

Mo, I dont know how deep the pool is, but I gather it is fairly deep where all the water lands all the time.

I watched the wedding last night, but it didnt help me to sleep. I didnt wait up after they went into Buck. house. The highlights will almost certainly be on the news tonight. The bride's dress was simple, but beautifully elegant.

Huia.

Ooo err...they were there 30 secs ago, which blog are you looking at, can you pm me??

jude

Jude I have just looked on your blog but there is none of Huia pics on there.

Caz xx

Huia I have just seen your photos, they are lovely, what a difference in the waterfall after the rain.
Sylvia, nice to see you back but sorry you have a cold, the worst ones are when they get on your chest aren't they.
Did you all watch the wedding, I really enjoyed it.

Love Caz xx

Hello again girls.
Didn't Catherine look lovely today. Not over dressed, but very very elegant.
And Prince William was so handsome. I believe Princess Diana would be proud of how her son has turned out.
I think that Harry takes after the Spencer side of the family, and is nothing like William, who is like his mother in looks and nature.

Thank you Huia for the pics. The rainbow in the falls, is a lovely scene, that you would expect to see fairies in as well.
How deep is the water that the people were paddling in, near the water fall.

Going to make a nice cuppa tea now girls, see you later. Love Mo xxx
