Mowing grass is utterly satisfying! but does involve drinking copious amounts of lucozade and having hypos anyway!!! Janet has just called and insisted i am staying over tonight. Jinny she is just like you!!!! We are going to see a film tommorrow. I will come home as soon as i can. I hope you have fun. Please cut and paste yourself into the Sweepstake everyone.
Everyone look after yourselves.
Roob, Hello, originally i thought the same as you. Now i realise how easy it is to talk on here, you can share your worries and the nicest people help. I am certain that Ann has a family that loves her dearly but you cannot tell family everything sometimes. With time it may be possible but she must do it at her own pace. (Please dont stress either of you, i dont want to upset anyone) This is our virtual family and we love her dearly too. She has changed so many of our lives. Big hugs Ann. We love you. Roob we love you too!!! Ps. dont worry we are kissing Ann. I am not a pervert!Aiming for a minimal spend 20220 -

Warning - When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple
By Jenny Joseph
[IMG]http://labyrinth_3.tripod.com/herbgarland.gif[/IMG]When I am an old woman, I shall wear purple
with a red hat that doesn't go, and doesn't suit me.
And I shall spend my pension on brandy and summer gloves
and satin candles, and say we've no money for butter.
I shall sit down on the pavement when I am tired
and gobble up samples in shops and press alarm bells
and run my stick along the public railings
and make up for the sobriety of my youth.
I shall go out in my slippers in the rain
and pick the flowers in other people's gardens
and learn to spit.You can wear terrible shirts and grow more fat
and eat three pounds of sausages at a go
or only bread and pickles for a week
and hoard pens and pencils and beer nuts and things in boxes.But now we must have clothes that keep us dry
and pay our rent and not swear in the street
and set a good example for the children.
We must have friends to dinner and read the papers.
But maybe I ought to practice a little now?
So people who know me are not too shocked and surprised
When suddenly I am old, and start to wear purple.
goodnight, SW.
One of my fave passages Savingwannabe, My friends and I often say to each other, pass the purple hat...
I'm just growing old disgracefully
BTW is it safe to come out now? Is all footy talk finished?0 -
Evening all, hope you've all had a lovely day in the sunshine0

Good Evening Mrs. Niddy,
Did you have a nice day? Its sooo hot up here in scotland.. I took the kidlet to the park and found an elephant (no really the circus is in town but they were walking the elephant in the park) to a 15 month old it was fantastic and im so getting a mother of the year award.. when he can make one out of dried pasta!
Im guessing it was hot down your way as well?0 -
