    Hi all



    but in all reality it's quite a practical step...but when she started talking about planning her funeral I had to ask her if she was telling me the whole truth about her cancer....she said she was just trying to get things in order 'just in case'.

    Anyway, I'm OK. I'm of a practical mind so can understand why she's thinking about these things...doesn't want to leave it to us - wants it her own way. Hope no-one thinks this is in bad taste, but I told her she couldn't die because I wouldn't let her rest - I'd carry her ashes everywhere with me....her answer....'I always wanted to travel'. Can't win.

    Ishtar – we can never win . Remember mother always knows best. :rotfl:

    Poohbear – congrats to your DS you must be so proud
    Toots – hope you enjoyed your niece’s performance. How did she do?
    Cycle – belated birthday wishes for yesterday
    Me – happy birthday, hope you are having a good day here is some sunshine for you

    For Valentine’s Day, Wayne Bridge got his girlfriend a replica of his manhood made of Cadbury’s chocolate.

    She said thanks, but she actually preferred Terry’s…..
