Morning, thanks for the cake ff,very nice.
It's raining here and i saw on the news the amber warnings for down this way.Glad i got all my washing done yesterday. I have been out to shops and off to take son to his hobby shop soon.Hope you all have a good day0 -
We are home. We had been thinking of going to visit DD1 and finally decided Sunday to go on the train.
Children were happy to see us and we went out to a real Italian restaurant for a meal. They have free pizza or pasta for children late afternoon. So lots of families.
Monday DD1 was off work to take GD on a visit the school she’s going to start in September. Her brother is there already. We had a nice meal with them yesterday.
Agree with you Alfie weather is very strange. I dodged rain this morning looking at a few clothes shops but no success. Fortunately no problems getting train home as South Western Trains have strikes starting today.
Raining and very dull as we came into London.
Better catch up with some comps. Good luck everyone.0 -
Morning, glad you got home ok leanfun. I saw on the news about the strikes.
It's a dull start to the day here none of the wet stuff yet,lol. I just popped out for some brown paper to post a parcel off,could have sworn i had some but couldn't find any in the house. Expect i will find it now.I should have been working today but shift was cancelled again so sent email to manager saying i am looking for other employment as fed up with shifts being cancelled.Got a nice email back so let's see what shifts i get for next week.I am looking for another job but biding my time.Any way better get this parcel posted off. Hope you all have a good day.0 -
:hello: Hellooeee
Hope you’re all ok?The weather down my way feels really
humid - mix of sun/cloud & little bit of light rain with thunder
rumbling in the distance.
Yippee! Looks as if we’re in for some decent weather from
tomorrow for quite a few days! :j ☀️😎☀️ I can hear the
garden calling.
So pleased you got home ok leanfun, re rail strikes.
Can’t imagine what the commuters feel about it, really
disruptive for everyone, particularly those who work up in
London. The Italian restaurant sounds wonderful, especially
doing free pizza or pasta for kiddies in the afternoon.
Brilliant! :T
Hope you managed to get your parcel posted ok indie. What’s
the betting you’ll find the elusive brown paper in the next few
days!Don’t blame you sending off email to your Manager
re cancelled shifts, & then receiving a nice reply back.It’ll
be interesting to see what shifts you’re given next week.
Time for a cuppa me thinks.Have a lovely rest of
the day all, take care.

Evening, it's been showery all day, you think it's stopped and off it goes again.Glad it's going to be nice the next few days as sons GF is going over to the island (Isle of wight)for a long weekend on Friday with her friend. They are taking their bikes over and plan to travel all round on them. The friend is arriving tomorrow night.
Well i had a phone call from my manager earlier giving me shifts next week for every day i wanted.Amazing where he finds shifts when he wants. I posted the parcel, not come across the paper yet but sure i will when not looking for it,lol0 -
:hello: Good morning
It’s beautiful weather here today, the sun’s shining away & it’s
very warm out! 😍☀️😎
I think your son’s girlfriend & pal will have a wonderful time on
the Island indie, especially if the weather is similar to today. Lol
at your Manager ringing back with new shifts yesterday - as you
say, it’s amazing he can find shifts when he needs to!:rotfl:
This morning, I noticed quite a few doggy walkers haven’t been
clearing up after their pets. :sad: Still don’t understand why
a few people think it’s ok just to walk away, without a thought
for other folk, children etc who also enjoy the forest. I’ll have
to print off more leaflets (as before) to give folk a reminder. 🐶
Will be spending a good part of the next few days gardening,
making the most of the weather. Will also pop round to lovely
guy to give him a helping hand with his garden too.
Have a lovely day all, take care.

Morning,Suns out here and it's warming up nicely. I have just put washing out and there is a nice breeze so shouldn't take long to dry.Good idea about the reminder Alfie, the people are "out of sight out of mind" brigade.
I am just doing housework this morning then out in the garden this afternoon.0 -
Morning, just had a problem with Safari going down. Now I’ve got to sign into everything Ho Ho. Yesterday Instagram blocked me from liking too.
Yesterday I had a letter from Bauer I thought great I’ve one something. It was the letter about the pressure washer. It did say you might have received your prize.
Indie sorry to hear you have had problems with work. Do hope you are given the hours you want from now in. You winder what these managers are up to.
It’s sunny here too this morning. Let’s hopeut lasts a bit. I too need to do some gardening.
Alfie some people are just thought less.
We were so tired yesterday after our few active days. Need to catch up here today.
Hope everyone has a good day and good luck.0 -
Morning, hope the problem is sorted now and you don't have to keep signing in.I have just dropped sons GF and her friend off at the hovercraft terminal. They have decided to get a bus ticket to travel round the island as she has a cold and her friend has hurt her knee and a lot of cycling won't do either of them any good.
We had the sun out here earlier but it's clouded over now, it's quite warm out as well.I am going to the cinema later with son to see Men in Black international,looks a funny film. I had a giggle with a lady on checkout in Tesco's last night. I popped in for some fruit and the pineapple spike dug into her finger. She said "that's a fiesty one" i told her not to worry as i would get my own back later when i chopped it's head off,lol.
Hope you all have a good day...0 -
Very sunny here now. Hope it lasts.
Indie you have made me laugh about the pineapple incident. Love pineapple but have to feel like chopping its head off.
Sounds a good idea for your Ds’s Gf and friend to get the bus passes. Hope they enjoy.
I’ve managed to sort everything out with IPad but still a lot of sites to put email and passwords in. I think with Instagram I did too many competitions too quickly.
Indie hope you enjoy the film and turns out to be really funny. I’ve just managed to book tickets for film Gone Girl for tomorrow with Show Film First at BFI.
Hope everyone has a good day. It’s longest day today. Love the light evenings.0
