That has happened to me so often Maureen. Now I carry a spare battery, well, unless I forget it!!!

Your mouse cross stitch sounds lovely Mandy, really christmassy with their little stockings!!

PM received Ann.Thanks!!

Hello all,

We have been off the internet nearly all day. It came back on about half an hour ago. It has taken me all that time to read the posts as I was so tired yesterday night after everyone had gone home and up to the caravan. We had a chinese last night. There were 6 of us and we throughly enjoyed it.

The service went off very nicely and the flowers were lovely. They were all little arrangements so are now on the church window sills with last weeks wedding flowers. There was loads of food left over from the little reception after the service and I sent loads home with SIL for her son and BIL to have for supper.
ind you there was enough there for lunch today as well.

Sheila sorry to hear about your daughter loosing her baby. How sad............. Do you think she may try again??

Ann thanks for the pics of the pussy cats. Love how you titled them.

Jane liked the joke veg. Sent it to OH. Ha ha ha!!

I did copy and paste it though so no emails pasted on.

Frank glad you got a better appointment for Ros. Fancy having to wait till January with a problem back!!!!!!!!

Hope I have covered everything I should have replied to.

Yes I did have a good nights sleep and a good drop of red!!! SIL and BIL left here about 10.35am this morning.

It's been a lovely day here today and I have two lots of washing on the line. clouded over now so think I shall go and do the chickens and get that over and done with and then I only have to shut them in later.

Mel.I'm pleased it all went well for you yesterday.We were all thinking of you
Glad you liked the veggie joke lol

It has just started to rain so I had to bring all the washing in.

My SIL left me a nice bottle of red so I think I may have that with dinner tonight. Have just got two nice chicken breasts out the freezer. Seems strange to cook for just two people but I think it is quicker.

I will have a nice cuppa now. OH having 40 winks I think.

Hope you have calmed down a bit Frank.

You must be relieved it's over now Mel, glad it all went well.

Phew, changing duvet covers is better than any workout. I must have burnt up loads of calories, could have a box of chocolates now ...lol I quite fancy a chinese, pity you're too far away Mandy, I might have gate crashed.

Oh well, it's avocado and salad for me tonight,

Amanda, Did you read the book King Rat?
Set in a POW camp.A US POW is treating the experience like a business.
He has fellow POW's catching rats alive in traps.
He kills them and skins them and cooks them.
Then sells the meat to British POW officers,who of course eat it.
George Segal played King Rat in the film version.

David!!!!! you will be giving everyone nightmares lolol.What with rats and Halloween and all the ghouls and ghosties!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.We will all be shaking in our boots .(where did that expression come from??)

Maureen ,you must have great will power.Would you like to come to us tonight for steak,mushrooms.tomatoes and chips?

Or to us for chciken breasts with peppers, onions garlic, mushrooms, ginger and rice?

I think I will come to you Mel ,but will just give the ginger a miss.

Sorry folks , we had our dinner ages ago or I would have invited you all.
mind you not every one likes pasta we had Lasagna I had mine with a salad ,the others had it with Garlic bread.

Glad it all went well for you Mel.
off to watch a bit of TV

My favourite programme is on, so went out to the kitchen and done all the veg for tomorrow. Pudding made and in the fridge. Just cheese sauce to make tomorrow.

Didn't fancy eating tonight, so had cheese on toast with cherry tomatoes under the grill.

I remember that film David, very good it was too. The other day they had the "GREAT ESCAPE" on with Steve McQueen. Lewis thought it was great. We have noticed if you leave him alone with the remote control. He loves to tune into American humour shows. I can't stand them. Don't know why he likes it.!!!!

Mel, Glad all went well yesterday. Enjoy that bottle of RED. I will be thinking of you. I haven't had a drink for over two weeks now. and I don't miss it. Will still have the odd pint or two when I go out, which isn't very often these days.

Did you get the Christmas Vidio.???? those who I haven't sent to, who would like it for young children, just say so, and I will forward it.

I thought you might be here now Frank lol.I just nodded off and missed the last song ,and now it's adverts ,so thought I would whip in quick now and say Night Night all.xx

Just saying goodnight
DON'T FORGET TO PUT BACK YOU CLOCKS TONIGHT 1 HOUR

Sister and BIL have just gone ,the Chinese was good ,i had a veg curry ,boy it was hot !!!!
Maureen , you would have been very welcome to come and join us.

No David i don't think i would have enjoyed that book ,all this talk of Rats ,i don't think i'll sleep tonight now lol
