    Hi everyone.

    Sharon_1970 Im very intersted in orbs. I stayed with friends at Ford Castle in Northumberland a couple of years ago and there was lots of orbs on our photos.

    licklgibbon Welcome back

    Tiami_d Its awful when that happens with an appointment. When Ive been doing my meeting greeting at the hospital thats happened to people a few times. Its either another day or they are at the wrong hospital.


    Been working today and Im shattered. Im glad I did most of my housework at the weekend.

    Hugs to everyone who needs one.

    Morning all.
    jjef - hope DD is ok.
    soappie - glad it wasn't you!!! LOL
    Michelle - your meals sound delicious!
    Tia - hope the appointment goes well TODAY!!! LOL

    Have to laugh at all the non-morning children - mine aren't either, but they are now old enough to sort things out for themselves!!

    OH threw a hissy fit last night and pulled the fuse out that controls the room that the computers are in. Kids wouldn't get off and do the dishes etc. What he didn't realise was that the WM and freezer in the garage also turned off! He can sort the freezer today - not my problem!

    We actually ended up all having a great conversation. Think it's time to do a Pigpen - no tv (couldn't bear no computer . . . ) It won't happen tho, OH loves his sport too much.
