  • When our last TV broke the insurance company sent a cheque for it so DH upgraded to a flash 3D Smart tv but it gives me headache if I watch it too long so hoping to buy a little TV for upstairs so I can still watch it.

    Morning All, Not been up long, just enjoying a nice cup of coffee to get me going.


    Have 2 x GD's today as they are not at school until Tuesday. We are taking them into town for a nice bacon buttie


    Sheils - Glad you have got DS2 for a few days and hope you have a good time. Haven't heard anything about that wine win from the other day. It said 'you have won we will be in touch with you shortly' Thought I would have had an email by now.


    Its a miserable dull day here but not too cold.


    Have you been out and fed the squids yet FireFly?


    Wingo - Kids back to school today?


    Have a lovely day everyone.

    Lol fire**fly :D I would love to hide in the bush as you're feeding and talking to them and pretend to talk back to you! :rotfl:
    I used to do that when my youngest dd was born, son was only 3 and he kept saying 'he wanted that football to go back' (referring to the baby) he hated her and would throw whatever he could try at her! The only way I could win him round is by pretending she was talking to him saying how much she loved him. He adored her after that! :D
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    When our last TV broke the insurance company sent a cheque for it so DH upgraded to a flash 3D Smart tv but it gives me headache if I watch it too long so hoping to buy a little TV for upstairs so I can still watch it.

    Did wonder about splashing out and getting something better PMS but we don't watch that much TV and the kids have got their own so hardly ever watch ours.

    My DH laughs at my "animal" voice FF. Boys aren't up yet so haven't had the chance to tell them off yet. DS2 is offering to pay for a hotel stay for us if we drive him to Stirling to catch a train there so might not be too sore on him!;)

    Love your talking baby idea wingo!

    Just watched Peer Gynt ILC - very good.

    Morning peeps!!!! Hope everyone is well and good luck to all! :)

    Have to see about replacing the tv in my bedroom. I quite often have it on at night, all cozy tucked up in bed with puddy cat, if there is something I want to watch before sleep. Even tho it works (sort of) with a digi box, its quite old and a hand me down, and the back of it is big yet the screen is small - need me glasses on to watch it and the puddy keeps interfering with the aerial sat on top of it. Have to keep repositioning it. :)

    Have to admit tho, I have a tendency of falling asleep while the tv is on and waking up in the wee small hours to some very strange programmes!! :eek: :D

    FF, i do the same - chat to the animals, birds, any other critters who happen to be in the garden :D - neighbours are used to it now and take no notice :D :rotfl::rotfl:

    Just off now for an early lunch of buttered crumpets. Tried to resist them at store this morning ....................... but failed miserably!! May have some fruit and yog after just to show willing! :D Alf xxx
