    :hello: Good morning everyone!

    It's quite a decent weather day here though very
    muggy!

    Sun is shining away so hoping it will stay for
    a while cos I've got plenty to do out in the garden
    later on today! :D
    Hi everyone, just a quick pop in. Been poorly all weekend and still the same now, think it must be flu or something. Can barely see through my eyes and nose absolutely streaming, headache and aching everywhere. Hopefully will begin to feel better soon.

    Well done on any wins.

    So very sorry to hear that you have been poorly with
    flu sylv, though very pleased you felt a little better
    yesterday. Take care and stay warm. Sending big
    (((((hugs))))). xxx

    Goodness big ((((((((hugs)))))) sylvia take care. Summer cold/flu is horrible. Was delivered a load of coffee so sis will be happy. It is all she drinks (apart from wine lol) Her coffee machine will be happy and so will she. Ground coffee she buys as beans seem to cost a lot nowadays. Read back now well done to all those who have won yaaaaaaaaaay.

    :j Very well done with the coffee win rose! Will be lovely
    for your sis! :j :D :T

    I wonder what was happening your way then yesterday?
    Hope everyone is ok whatever the situation .... I hate
    hearing sirens - especially when they go on and on for
    some time, you can't help but fear the worst. :sad:

    get unbearable especially when they started drilling into
    the wall! :eek:

    Good luck with winning some nice wedding comps. I know someone on here won her wedding dress. I saw her wedding photos and it was lovely.
    I have been married twice as I was widowed young. First wedding was fairly cheap as local hotel was reasonable and we knew band members. My dress and bridesmaid dresses in sale. Cake made by local bakers as present for us. Photographer worked with my dad so discounted too. Only had 2 nights in Blackpool as honeymoon though!
    Second wedding was in Las Vegas and just cost us the licence money and money for minister at "Little White Chapel" Toured around West Coast of US for honeymoon with my 2 sons though so not cheap option although brilliant adventure.
    Finland sounds lovely.

    One of my friends recently got married in Vegas, her photos were brilliant! I looked like a really fun way to tie the knot. My parents also did their honeymoon in Blackpool but just overnight because I was a baby and my brother was in a terrible toddler stage. It's one of my favourite places to visit, I grew up not far away from there :)

    Charley .... love the sound of Finland for a
    honeymoon. Fingers 'n paws crossed for you to win
    some lovely wedding comps to give you a little
    helping hand! :j

    Thankyou so much! I've wanted to visit Finland since I was a teenager but it's so expensive to get there. At least it will be a holiday to remember and definitely worth the cost!

    Finland looks a lovely place Charley, good choice!
    I bet the gardens coming on nicely Alfie! I wouldn't know where to start!
    Is DD still going strong with her BF Sheils? My youngest DD keeps saying she can't wait to get married! :o Hopefully she will change her mind by the time she's old enough! :p
    Hope you're feeling better leanfun xx
    Indie, good luck with win, hope it was the camera set :)

    I saw your posts on Tapioca pudding....yuk! _pale_ The kids in our school have it and it looks like a load of fish eggs stuck to the floor! :o
    Nothing much happening here. Kids have been to cinemas and DH just falling asleep as usual on sofa! :D I've set up PC in dining room now so might try entering comps on it later as I'm not winning anything using iPad!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Hi wingo - yeah DD has moved in with her BF. He has his own house and it is handy for her work. He is really nice and TBH it is nice to know she is with him when we go away. They have got a little ginger kitten now (called Angus!) Not sure what will happen when she has Uni as she will have to go to various hospital placements. They are really happy anyway so we will see.





    Can't believe how wet and miserable it has been here today. Feeling cold now too. Hope it will be better by Sunday as we are going to Blackpool Airshow.

    Is it a Uni near you she is going? I was quite lucky when doing nursing first as I got placements close by but when I had to give it up my next placement was Northallerton so wouldn't have known how to get there! I would love to go back into nursing studies but I can barely remember anything from last week nowadays let alone study! :o
    Sounds like your DD's BF is a keeper! Have a good time in Blackpool :)

    Yes she will start at Uni 30 miles away (as long as she gets the rest of grades she needs on Tuesday) She is learning to drive and is insured on her bf's car at the moment. Sitting her theory this morning so fingers crossed. They do basic nursing to start with before doing the mental health part.
    DD says bf is too good to lose :D He has his work cut out to keep her though as she attracts a lot of male attention!
    Shame you can't get back into nursing.
    Looking forward to Blackpool -Air show on and staying near the zoo so meaning to go there too with Tesco Vouchers.

    Morning everyone. Nice and bright here. Have to head out later this morning. Got Docs appointment. I also have something to confess I LOVE TAPIOCA. Used to have it at primary school and at home with a dolop of strawberry jam. Have to say not had it in years though. Have a lucky day everyone.

    Good Morning,


    Sun trying hard to come out here - supposed to be nice here later.


    Thanks Alfie & FF.


    Glad someone else like tapioca rose! I enjoyed mine the other day after so many years of not having any.


    Wishing everyone a lucky day.
