General Chat

Oooooh I just dont believe it, I have just written a loooong post, and lost the damned thing.

Firstly, welcome to Susan with numbers and Mau, it's good to see you, come back and have a chat with us whenever you feel like it, you will be most welcome.
What a shame we never had a visit from the men as well girls, it's not as if we would bite them is it, weeell not a lot. Only at halloween of course.

It's good to hear you are still in one piece Huia. I hope the meeting with the staff about Phil's progress or regression went o.k. and that you found him well.

Sallie, I know I am strange, but I quite like the smell of deep heat, and not a lot of people can admit to that. lol

Ann, has T managed with his teeth today? If he has, can you send him round here to have word with Roly to encourage him to persist with his, as they are sitting in the glass on the bathroom window ledge staring at me.

Puss, bless your mum, it will take time for her to adjust to the loss of her husband, mind you it will affect all of you as well.
Is your mattress a memory foam one. My OH has got an electric adjustable bed, with a memory foam topper on it.
There are times when I am tempted to creep in his room, push the button,and ping him out of bed, lol :-D, no I wouldn't do that, ( titter titter)

I am just going to have a look at the threads now, so hopefully I will be back later, but if I'm not, you will know that I am at darts.
Bye for now, love Mo xxx

Oooops I nearly missed you Mummo, hello right back to you. Hows things with you. xxx

Hi Mo, yes l'm good at the moment , things seem to be going well and happy that my daughter is now living back in the Portsmouth area so we see her all the time.
I still read this thread ( l no l'm nosey ) lol. xx

Hi Mummo,lovely to see you post on here. How are you and your OH these days? Hope things are a bit better for you both.

Take care.

Love, Sallie.xxx

Hope you do not mind me gate crashing Mo In kent,

would just like to say hello !! to anyone on here i have yet to speak to or anyone i rarely speak to ,
have a nice day!!

I,m finding it hard to get on these long threads keep getting the error page!
so its a rare thing to get through like this.

Flo :-)

Mummo, don't just read it girl, post on it. what has happened about your tooth?

Mo, He seems to be coping better today, he has kept them in all the time during the daytime, he is a bit too proud to be seen outside without them. His gums are still sore. Are Roly's just back teeth or right across? There is no way I was having teeth in a glass I hate the things, I have got him some plastic tumblers, if he doesn't want to use those he has an old china mug, none of these are see through. I have spent 50 years not making him look at me with my small denture not in and I expect the same from him. (unless they are hurting of course). :-D

Hello Sallie, Ed is fine, he has really adapted well since the accident, always has a smile and loves going shopping on his mobility scooter :-D
saves on the petrol, lol. he still has a lot of pain from spasms in his back but he doesn't let it get him down,
Hope things are ok for you, xx

wmsl Mo i just pictured it and with dentures flying everywhere, sorr Ann i remember the trouble my step nan had she was back and forwards to the dentist, hope your OH gets his sorted soon, sorry Mo going off well, my matress is the memoryfoam on a wooden base, i am thinking of the electric bed

my OH has worn discs and a unstable spine, he practicaly has to have lots of pillows on his side and the memory foam dosnt suit him

hello florence and mummo and more new people xxx

is jean about xxx

Puss, I have been chasing youa round asking this question. Where did you send the photos of your bracelets to. I have not received them.

Oh No! I have done it again, I have missed Florence.
Welcome Florence, nice to see you, please pop back sometimes and see us. Everyone is welcome to join us in our chit chats.
I know what you mean about getting on to longer threads though, it's a real pain in the BTM.

Mummo, you are NOT nosey, you know we love to hear from you,and know how things are going for you all.
It's great that your daughter has moved nearer to you.Close family ties mean so much don't they. Luckily for me, my five all live local to us, but we don't live in each others pockets, just the knowledge that they are only a phone call away. makes a lot of difference.

Ann, roly's teeth are both upper and lower teeth. He has about four on each plate.
I have never known anyone take as long to eat a meal as him. I could dish the meal up at 5 p.m and he would still be eating it at 6 p.m, stone cold on his plate, he still munches through it.
I do admire T sticking to his guns, or should that be gums lol and tolerating the discomfort.

Puss, Jean has not renewed her membership on here this time. She is having a break, and doing other things.
But we do miss her terribly, she was the main reason I started this thread originally, as her thread had been whooshed for no known reason.
Puss if the idea of seeing my O.H's teeth flying through the air, you should be here when he takes his time eating his meal, I feel like picking up the plate and throwing it at him. Talk about meals on wheels, it's more like flying plates and not flying saucers. He will be wearing the meal soon, if he continues to take so long. " Patience Mo" as mother used to say.

Well my friends I have to go now, and get myself sorted out for darts.

Oooh I forgot to say hello to Sallie, Caz, Joyce, Marie, Joyce and numerous other friends, sorry about that.
Byeee Love Mo xxx

Jean if your looking in, hope everything works out well for you and your ohxx

you will be missed lovely people are take care xxxx

hello mo, are we having a plate throwing party then lol xx

Hello all and welcome to Susan and Mau, nice to see you on here. Sally I hope your back gets better soon, it's very uncomfortable isn't it. Talking about pain, my ankle is painful anyway because of the cancer in it and arthritis just have to put up with it. I went for my ct scan yesterday and they couldn't find the vein to put the die in so I hope it turns out ok. Hello Florence, nice to see you on here, you must visit us more often.
Hope you are all ok.

Love caz x

Puss, I rarely go on facebook and if I do I don't know what to do with it. I have been on today but didn't see anything from you. No, I meant send it to my proper e mail which I gave you.

Caz, I hope the scan worked ok for you otherwise that will mean another visit won't it?

Sorry Mo, meant to say, haven't counted but I think T must have about 8 teeth on his. I have worn an upper one with three teeth for 50 years.

Good morning girls,

Mo, how did you get on at darts last night, hope you and your team won. Like Ann, I don't understand the game of darts at all and can't even throw one, when I have tried it just hits the board or wall and falls to the floor.lol!!
Well you aren't on your own liking the smell of Deep Heat, both Jennie and Michael also likes it.


Ann, hope you and T have a good weekend at your daughter's. Have a good journey and take care.


Mummo, so pleased to hear that Ed is getting along OK, he has done so well considering his condition. As you said, being able to get around on his mobility scooter is great for him and gives some of the independence that he enjoys.......and saves on petrol.lol!! Having your daughter living near you again must set your mind at rest too knowing that she can be there in minutes if you need her.

Look forward to seeing you on here again soon, as you know this is a lovely welcoming thread, where we all have a good natter and where we are here for each other in bad and good times. So as the others have said, feel free to join us anytime you want, you are most welcome.



Florence, sorry I missed you yesterday, so just to say welcome to Mo's thread. We have all become good cyber friends over the two years since it was started so know each other quite well now, so if you would like to join us on here too, you will be most welcome.....the more the merrier.



Caz, missed you too yesterday, sorry to hear that your ankle is still causing you a lot of pain, just wish there was something they could do to help you.
My back is slowly getting better now, thank you.......at least I can now sit at the computer a bit longer to type messages to everyone.



Puss, how are you today? Hope you and OH are both okay. Did you enjoy Susan with numbers dropping in on threads day? It was a great idea of her's , I think that it would be nice occasionaly to perhaps have another 'dropping in day' . It was nice to 'see and speak' to members that we hadn't spoken to before.



Jean, if you are looking in, we do miss you on here, I keep looking for a message from you. Thank you for your Easter card, sorry I'm a bit late thanking you, but I'm afraid it's been one of those weeks, as you have probably read on here. Hope all is well with both Jeff and Debra.
Take care.



Joyce, I'm wondering if they have finished fitting your chair lift in by now.......hope they have got it all sorted by now.



It's a long time since we heard from Marie, I hope everything is alright with her and her family.



Huia, hope the meeting at the home went well for you. You seem to have been a very busy lady lately......just wish I had some of your energy. Take care and try not to overdo things.




Sylvia, hope you and OH will enjoy the weekend at your friends on the island and that the birthday celebrations will go as planned.



Linda, hope your vertigo is not as bad as it was and that you are able to do a few more things again.



Well I must get ready to go up to town now, I've been putting it off all the morning but I have to go now, so may speak to you all later on.


Take care everyone.


Love, Sallie.xxx

Morning Mo, and ladies, do we have any gentlemen on here if so hello too

sallie i hope your back eases for you, pain is so hard to cope with if you cant keep on top of it.

i think darts youve either got it or havent (easy for me to say) but i watched a friend of mine practice with us and decorated the wall around the board lol, bet your brilliant at other things xx

hi caz sorry your ankle is still hurting, i used OH tens maching on my shoulders the other day it really helped and its still working xx

joyce i shall ring in a bit just waiting for N pow34 to ring me xx

Hello girls, sorry to be late visiting, but had to go for physio this morning, then we went down to see baby Lilly, and spent far to much time there. But she is such a joy to behold, and has us both in fits of laughter with her mischievious ways.
It's so funny watching her play with the puppy Poppy. S had to buy a new lead for the puppy when we were all out shopping.
When we got home, it was a fight between Lilly and pup, for ownership of the lead.
S had lost the original lead that they had for Poppy, and she has just txt me to say she has found it under the dog cage.
This is only a tiny wee puppy, so how has she managed to lift the cage and place the lead under it, we just dont know.
Maybe overnight she becomes super pup, flying round the room.lol

Sallie, sorry to report that we lost last night 5-4, but pleased to tell you I finished two games.......Look out girls, if my head gets any bigger, I wont be able to get through the door ;-)
Did you get all your shopping done today?
As you were saying earlier, it was lovely to see some new faces popping in to say hello. I just hope we see them again soon.

Caz, I can't believe your bad luck sweetheart, if anyone is going to have problems at the hospital, you are in the lead.
It seems that fate is against you every time, what with them losing your notes that time, and all the other mishaps you have had to undergo, it's just not fair.
God willing the scan will be clear enough for them to be able to read it love.
Stay as strong as I know you are mwah xxx

Puss, I can't have a plate throwing party, coz I have already broken most of them, and they are getting expensive to keep replacing, even though I might feel like throwing them sometimes, I keep myself in check and say NO dont do it girl.
We don't have any gentlemen followers on here, mores the pity. I think the thought of all us girls frightens the pants off them....and thats not a pretty sight in some cases. lol
Have you heard from Joyce yet about wether they have fitted her lift in yet.

I will be back later. Take care Mo xxx

hello Mo you do make me chuccle,

joyce has been fitted with a stair lift and a wheel chair, so watch out dutch land she is mobile :-0

but.............. silly thing got her feet caught in the stirrups and did a dying swan act just as well yan was there to lift her back up.

may the 8th the hospital want her to get to the bottom of something, sorry im not good at relaying stuff, but im sure she will correct me, as she was blonde like me once :-)

caz i hope your ankle is better and sallie hope your back is better,

im finding it hard to eat, the top of my stomache has been aching for days, just took some more rennies. i see 2 consultants 16 th and 18th. and get results of stomache scan about 7 days, they think my liver isnt coping withall medication and L F T ia abnormal, and liver is swollen, havent drunk for 3 yrs so hopefully i will be sorted by my holidays in may.

how is EVERYONE sorry will learn names in time xxx :-D

It will Ann and I could do without that, I'm fed up of all these tests. Mo I have one of those beds, the district nurse got me it for my bad back, to say it's brilliant is an understatement, I love it.
Joyce had her stairlift fitted this afternoon, but says it is noisy and the dog doesn't like it,lol. It will be a lot better for her poor legs though.

Love Caz xx
