    Hope Jess has a lovely birthday Toniq xx

    Well done on Echo win Rose! :T Fab win! Hope your back is better xx

    Fire**fly, I watched Trumps speech but not by choice, I forgot tipping point wasn't on! :D You didn't miss much really, what a load of polony! He's promising this, that and the other and slated all the other presidents. I'm glad I'm not American!

    Lovely your pics Alfie, they made me smile! :D I need one of those wall hangers! :p

    Hope your dad's back is ok Sheils. They forget don't they that they're getting older and can't do as much but still try! Bless him :)

    Sylvia, glad your wrist and hip wasn't any more than bruising too. Still, it must have been painful. Xx Arnica is good for healing, I remember a midwife advising me to take it and it really helped.

    So pleased for your sons GF indie, glad she has a job to go back to Nd I'm sure the carer job will be better pay too than the other :)

    That's lovely you got to see your DD and GK's Leanfun and hope they are on the mend now. :) Lol at telling DH you're leaving him! :D I remember my dad taking black bags to the car for charity and mam shouted to him..."and don't come back" before slamming door! You should have seen the neighbours faces who were on the front! :p

    Great to see some new peeps popping in for chat :) Good luck comping Miss Dee, Laura and I do remember your old name too Pot O' Gold :wave:

    Laura, ((hugs)) for yesterday xx My dad also died last yr Valentine's Day and yesterday was his bday so we released a birthday balloon with messages on and had a quiet drink for him as he would have wanted. We are releasing Chinese lanterns on his anniversary. It's surprising how you think you prepare for it but you don't. :( Good luck with your job applications too.

    I really need to get my pic sorted and get back into comping. iPads are useless now! Sylvia, you'll have to learn me how to knit, I think I need to take up a new hobby! :D I have always wanted to learn how to knit though but I think I'm a bit clumsy for it!
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    Back is getting a bit better every day thanks sylvia. Trumps speech today was a bit of a joke. Has promised Americans who are less fortunate and others the world. He has not a clue about politics. They are going have to reign him in and get him some fantastic advisors. Doubt if he will listen though.

    Thank you so much for all being so welcoming.

    Gorgeous photos toniq, thanks for sharing, I hope Jessica had a fantastic birthday. Is that your little doggy in the photo too?

    Fantastic win Rose :T huge congratulations!

    Great to hear that the job went well.

    I've so far managed to avoid listening to Trump, even though he was on pretty much every channel and stories about him on many of the catch up channels/apps.

    May you all have a lucky and fabulous weekend!
    Thank you to everyone who posts competitions and good luck to everyone who enters.

    Good Morning,

    Feeling it cold as we have frost, been so mild here for so long it is a shock! Going to heat up soon though and sun going to come out (or so forecast says) Haven't seen the sun for a while.

    I remember my DD wanting to learn to knit wingo and I had to Google to remind myself how to cast on the stitches as it was so long since I had done any.

    Lovely pic Ms Dee and well done avoiding Trump. He makes my skin crawl, reminds me of double glazing salesmen who hassle you at the door step.

    We are heading off to Edinburgh tomorrow for 2 nights and then Stirling for one. We will divert to visit DS2's cafe at some point. He wants us to go and stay with him for a night but I think they have plenty to do at the moment. DD visited and stayed last week too. Must get organised.
    Hope everyone has a lovely weekend.

    sheils x

    EDIT Well done on the DVD win FF and hope the rain goes off for you.

    Hi everyone :wave:

    Hope you're all ok. :) After yet another thick frost last night
    once again it's a decent day weather wise here - started off
    bright n' breezy though a bit cloudy now and starting to feel
    slightly chilly. :p

    I watched Trump yesterday _pale_ - agree with everything
    you say rose/wingo .... and more. :T :eek: He's absolutely
    deluded - and if ignorance is bliss ... he must be the happiest
    creature in the world right now - pathetic excuse for a human
    being!

    Can you tell that I'm not really liking the man? :p :rotfl::rotfl:
