Hopefully it will soon disperse David and he will be more comfortable. It must take a few days to get used to things going back to how they were. Best wishes to him and I hope he is soon home and on that computer again.

It is a new learning curve for Ralphs lower intestines to cope with now .It will take a little while for things to get back to normal ,which is understandable.

Our kitchen is flooded we had a dreadful downpoor of rain and it leaked in through the skylight in the kitchen I had built on . Campari and Soda I liked I cannot go to bed until this floor is dry got towels soaking the water up. Can someone tell me how to stuff a marrow please sometime. Sorry this is late .

I am writing a book about Beryl Ive think written one on here are you not all bored now .

Catie Wish I could go to bed still waiting for things to dry out then going. What a nice job you have love music myself but can only play a keyboard .Just for my own pleasure really.
I lived in London for 11 years loved it there I had so many nice friends in London I love the theatre and saw a lot
of it there I love the string instruments if played well . My eldest daughter played the clarinet for a while in several youth concerts but gave it up. It seems like those horrible party of teenagers had a right rampage through the streets why do they ruin other peoples property for pleasure. I did mean to write Beryl is my sons godmother
not godson. Do you think you could claim from that teeenagers family for the gate or perhaps you may get it back if its anygood after being dumped on a telephone box. Roof replacement that reminds me of when we moved in here so much damage to the roof. Where do you live in London Catie can you say .I lived in Beckenham but close to Penge. I used to love going to the Albert Hall to concerts and loved prom nights. NITE
now can go to bed hubby said.

morning all
Computer behaving it's self this morning for the time being anyway ,OH had to spend £18 on the Internet on a kind of program (Don't want to say which one that would be advertising) last night to do some kind of system restore it said it had found over 300 faults,

Weather gray and drizzly this morning,

Agirl friend of mine phoned up yesterday and asked if daughter no 2 boyfriend would come and cut her hedge she said she would prefer to give him a tenner instead of getting in a man to do it. so we are going up to her house at 1, daughter's boyfriend to do some work and daughter & I to have coffee. so I have been printing off some recent pics of Sofia to show her,Sofia is now standing on her own without holding onto anything and has taken a couple of steps
I will e-mail you with a photo .

Coffee time then off to do my exercises.

Fiona glad your pooter is now fixed.

Catie good luck with hubbies eye op. Shall be thinking of him. My OH had a new lens in his eye last year an thats been fine since. He had had a stone come up from the stimmer and cut his eye and then got a tramatised cataract 12 years later. Horrid anything to do with the eyes as they are sooooo important.

I have the eye clinic with mum this week, if she decides to go.

Sheila all mopped up now??

Thanks Fiona for latest pic of Sofia !
Catie,I know Fitz is eccentric lol.I am going for lunch with him later ,I will double check about his Dad being a conductor.I knew his Dad when he was elderly and he always seemed a gentle man.
Fingers crossed it all goes well with the Laser treatment on OH

Hi Mel yes fairly dry, still some wet ,a lot of rain came skylight needs fixing. Today is bright and sunny
so things should dry out. It is always scary with eyes so precious to us. I have been to the shop today my charity job and someone brought in a painting Between Two Fires do you know who painted that I am having trouble looking it up because the web is playing up so many people using it I think. Of course only a copy I think.
