Hee, hee! That's one advantage of being quiet in real life - lol

Try the buses as an experiment on a 'good day'. A lot of the newer ones sink down to the kerb and have 'little' steps to get in. Nothing as convenient as a car of course, but worth investigating if/when it doesn't cost you anything.

Morning all.

Happy Mother's Day Aunty (well, I think I've just read it's your day today).

I've had to go back and read that much that I can't remember what I've read.

It's freezing here today, I think you're right LG, we did seem to have our summer one day last week, or was it the week before? Anyway, it was nice and lasted a whole day.

I've never been on a bus since I was about 19, they had conductors on them and no doors.

I'll be old enough to get a bus pass next month, might get one just to have a free ride on one of those new buses.

I have been a good little historian today. After I finished the things-which-could-not-be-put-off I tidied up all my family history paper work and folders and threw out heaps of notes which were taking up room on my desk. All my certificates are now in one folder in order and category. Ah it is lovely and tidy.

No don't start with the shock horror you will need those notes one day. They were hand written notes of stuff I now have on computer.

Mothers Day is tomorrow here. By unanimous agreement my wonderful family are NOT taking me out for feeding tomorrow, we are going next weekend. Very clever thinkers this lot of mine.

You go for it Pauline! Although you live in the wilds, there is never knowing when your car is off the road.

Notes Aunty- buy or 'borrow' exercise books, then they are in one place while you are making them. If you got spiral bound A4, then you can tear out the page and put it in your folder. I don't trust saving everything on a computer in case it dies or the file gets corrupted.

Don't you be going down with a cold now Maz!! We can't have you sneezing and snivelling in church!!

Well, I woke this monring and looked at the time on my mobile. Ah, 8.45, better get up, lots to do >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

WRONG!!!!

After being up for almost an hour, I discovered that it was actually 6.45 when I got up. That will teach me to look at the time without my spec on!!!

I'm lurking now, pondering over whether to do some ironing before I have to go out to buy a birthday pressie.

I have a couple of borders to finish weeding and at the moment it is lovely weather, so I hope it stays like this till I get back from shopping!
