    Unfortunately not, although I did consider it. It is 200 miles and 4 hours from me, which I might have done but I am at the Good Food show on Thurs/Fri, which Mad knew about and is where I first met him. I think he planned things so I could remember him where I first met him in real life ;) I will be having two drinks at every stand, one for me and one for mad like we used to :D

    I talked to Mads sister this morning who told me all about the funeral, what songs, readings etc which was lovely to hear.
    Be thankful for what you have because it could all be taken away tomorrow.;)

    That's a stretch :( I like the idea of you having freebies x2 for both of you :D
    I just assumed you were local :o. I think we have all said our goodbyes in a very nice way and come Friday we should all do whatever we are able to. silence, listening to Mads song, going about real life as usual ( which I think he would approve of )

  • Evening all

    Caribbean baxkwards I need your addy to send post.

    4 days in and I am surviving my visitor.

    This will make you laught little t. Dad has a new laptop but has touchscreen and is on windows 8.
    After many hours he can now watch bbc I player and sky go on his machine.
    Was hard work as had to unset some child controls to download adobe flash and also silverlight. Finally done and he is happy. Sat in lounge in front of my 42 inch telly but watching his sky catch up on his lappy.
    Same stuff on telly but I suppose it is quite exciting to him.
    Means he can now watch the australian open from the warmth of his bed.

    We did cliff top cafe in capel for breakfast then I cooked turkey dinner. Monday ashford shopping outlet plus new john lewis, then today a wander round canterbury.lots more planned but I have a repreive tomorrow as it is my art classday.
    Dad has been taught to use new tassimo coffee maker and he is running through the flavours.

    Fc, Tm, saversue and silvercar, sorry I missed your birthdays but hope you had good ones.

    I have done my application to The Orchard (think might be doing away with bzz)
    But they say there is nothing for me yet. Also bought some nice expensive purfume and makeup brush from yves rocher (sp)

    Enjoy your glitches this week, don't think I will manage much. I did find a pair of timberland boots in Office today so hoping to find an office code soon so I can have smart new boots.

    Love to all

    . I do think a chaise lounge is a good description of you though. Stylish yet comfortable and laid back :)

    May the odds be ever in your favour;)

    TM That Yves Rocher is working, register an account hth
    Off to bed night all x

    Just ordered 2 lots with perfume of £44 and £42 with £8.50 gift sets = £12 x2 orders.
    Perfume will go with BS Gift Sets for Christmas present as thought they might be a little stingy on there own. :D
    That should leave me with 2 full size body wash free with perfume; 2 small free fleeces and 2 £8.50 Gift Sets if it works.

    Fantastic song Lutzi, that one has a lot of emotional attachment for me for one reason or another. ;)

    I usually listen to this version though by Carole King, one of my all time favourite artists. :)

    Must have been about 1968/69 when I saw James Taylor in concert at City Hall Newcastle, and Carole King was his guest at the show. Love this song too. Fantastic :j :j

    And now, it's time for my bed, so night night all
