    Morning all :wave:

    Lots of us on early on a Sunday morning.

    Jue - what on earth were you up at 6 am for? Hope your feet/ankles improve.

    Right, got loads to do. Some of the tiles in the bathroom fell off the wall. I took the rest of them off, literally peeling them off easier than wallpaper. The plasterboard is soaking and smells damp and horrible, so I'm trying to dry that out. Think I may have to borrow my uncle dehumidifer :think: DD and I had such fun peeling off the tiles, but we just leave them in the bath, so that needs to be cleaned up. I also have a lot of ironing to do, so I'm going to start of with that and catch up with Gene Genie from last Monday. Must remember Desert Island Discs at 11.15. Piers Morgan is on it and while I cant stand him, I think it will be an interesting programme.

    Laters peeps

    Morning everyone

    We had a terrific thunderstorm last night about 1.30am. Fortunately it was short so didn't keep me awake too long. And today, we have sunshine again.

    Is anyone up for the suggested visualisation at 9pm this evening for Toots and LL?

    There's some stuff I must do today so I shall list it:
    • CMA
    • Minutes from meeting I went to t'other day
    • Phone TT
    • Phone P
    • Go out with the camera
    • Make sure everything's ready for Newport tomorrow
    • Front room (to get my final star!)
    I am the leading lady in the movie of my life

    DS gets up between 5.30 and 6 every morning! He got in bed with me for a cuddle first and then we got up at 6.

    Bad, bad, bad influence on me SS!! I have ordered a couple of books from Amazon, second hand, of course ;)

    ooooooo..... which ones did you get? :) I love her novels, she's quite something at spinning a yarn! Sarah Waters is another favourite. :D

    Morning all

    Just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to each and everyone of you for the support you have shown us on here, by text and email. I feel proud to know you all :T

    You fair made me cry (in the nicest way) which is why I did not respond yesterday, I would not have been able to see the keyboard and I am no touch typist!

    It was a tough day but we got through it, W actually did some swimming in his lesson! Miss A has started life saving lessons so was having fun throwing ropes in the pool and being dragged along on the end of a rope. After that we went to friends for a couple of hours and ended up at Mum and Dad's for takeaway and Robin Hood on their new TV.

    Glad the walkers had a good time, sounds like the weather behaved, can't say the same for it here.

    Count us in for the visualisation, me and Miss A, I let her stay up especially last time ;)

    It's freezing here., Heating's on. I know t's June, but if it's freezing I'm putting it on. We've had heavy rain for 2 days. I cannot believe the difference in one week. :rolleyes:

    LL is there one area that gives you more discomfort/pain/gyp than any other? Maybe we should imagine a hailstorm of light attack each one?
