Lovely sunny day here at the minute - I hope the snow stays away.

Hi everyone,
Happy birthday Ruby.
Chrisca, I hope the eye gets better quickly. I've worn contact lenses for 47 years now and had lots of eye things happen so I'm not at all squeamish about them.
TA, I'm sorry about your news, take care of yourself.
You too Nelski.
I'm waiting for the new cleaner to arrive, she was supposed to be here at 9.30 and it's now 9.53. I've messaged the service and had no reply. I really need her to come today, ah a car has just pulled up so we shall see , I think it's her. Maybe the wires were crossed about the time, I asked for 10.00 but they said 9.30 which I agreed to. Oh, she's just got out of the car and got back in, I think she must think it's 10.00 she's expected.
Steve has gone to golf and I am set to do dome sewing after I've been to the PO with a parcel to return.
Have a good day.

Morning. Ner sner....just wet...got my new contacts, they are definitely an improvement, especially after I cleared up the confusion by not paying because I already had the first time
I did surrender my old ones back though it's no loss
I made a banana loaf and an Aunt Sallys apple cake last night, the bananas were black and since the oven was on and I had some well ripened cookers in the veg drawer, call me Taff Two Cakes..
OH very happy, he loves cake. Today I;m off with a friend to visit another friend who has a glut of apples and wants to share the love so we'll go there, then to a local farm to enquire about their meat prices. They do whole lambs or half pigs and the prices sound pretty reasonable but that's from someones memory and if their memory is anything like mine..nuff said...
TA, sorry about your BF. I do think sometimes each department focuses only on their bit instead of there being at least one with a whole body approach. Hope you get to spend some quality time together. And what a great initiative Gold Line is. I had to google it but if that had been available for my father, I would have been forever grateful. Bella, is it pie and mash and liquor? One day I will try that. Coxy, congrats on your fundraising. Nels, good luck with the readings, I hope the medication keeps them down...snoozer, glad your current car fight is over and your cleaner showed up [ fingers crossed] Mussy, well done on figuring that out, I tried last month but I'm not sure if it's worked or not yet...And Ruby, have a fantastic day, and I'm not surprised your clients haven't got anything bad to say...Take care allNon me fac calcitrare tuum culi11 -
So sorry to hear about your friend and brother @TravellingAbuela must be such a shock for all of you to take in {{hugs}}Happy birthday @RedRuby1231@-taff mmmm pie and mash and liquor - takes me back to when I was young and growing up in London@Nelski I had to have a patch on my eye yesterday and agree about the depth thing. Luckily it was only for one day and nothing at all like what your going through. Hope it gets easier for you.Right off to raid the fridge to see what I can rustle up for lunch.10

Afternoon - a bit of a late one for me. I didn't want to miss wishing Ruby a very Happy Birthday, and many more.We had a bit of a late night yesterday. A lovely evening meal with the family was followed by a couple of night caps with my nephew in the hotel bar. It was gone midnight before I got in the lift to head to bed.Today he and I have been out and about driving round the local area, including a wee pilgrimage to see the headstone on the grave of John Bonham. Previous visitors have left drumsticks and cymbals on it.Now I'm resting until it's time for my niece to appear on the train from London. Tonight it's quiz night and my nephew's team needs reinforcing! 😀
I'm sorry to read of illness and troubles and send hugs and healing vibes all round. Happy rest of Tuesday.10 -
Happy Birthday Ruby, hope you're having a fantastic day with a glass of wine or two and lots of cake.
It's been a glorious day here, wall to wall sunshine but mighty chilly. I went to work on the bus this morning so missed posting earlier.
So sorry to hear of your friends diagnosis TA.
Have a good evening.10 -

Happy Birthday Ruby- hope you've been having a nice day.Chrisca- hope the stitches in your eye aren't sore- speedy healing!TA sorry to hear you've had bad news about your BFF & hope your brother gets his results soon.I had an unexpectedly busy day, my ex Sis-i-L rang this morning to say she was going to be in our locality and did I want to grab a coffee or lunch, & she would ring when she was nearly here. Whizzed round with the hoover etc. and tidied in case she came in- which she did as she was earlier than she thought.then we went to the place I usually go to with my cousins as it has a lovely view & it's been a lovely day. So much nattering and catching up. I gave her a birthday card for next week, normally would have posted it. Could have sworn I'd bought one for her DH but couldn't find it so will have to post that one in a couple of weeks. We've been trying to fix a date to meet up in M/cr for a meal, mid April is the first we could get as they're both retired now, having fun and going off on tripsBye for now,take care x:heartsmil 'A woman is like a teabag: You never know her strength until you drop her in hot water'.
