Puss the chemist still hasn't got my anti-biotics, they are having to send out for them and no one seems to have them. I know doc said thay have to be strong but this is beyond a joke. Oh has just gone round now to see if thay have managed to get hold of them, what a life.
I'm starting to feel better without them now.
Hope all turns out ok with your new girl.
Oh I'm going back to bed, my back is terrible and so painful, it happens every so often, don't know what I do but theres something that starts it off.

Love Caz xx

Caz, hope a rest helps your back pain. Can you not have your prescription sent straight to the chemist and delivered? I know they do that here.

I think I will start doing that Ann, only thing is they bring it when they want and I could be in bed or out, been caught out a few times like that.
Problem with my tablets, the supplier said they can't supply them so don't know what to do.

Ann having got up after a nap my back is worse so won't do it tomorrow.

Caz xx

hello mo and everyone

caz you wouldnt believe it well you would i suppose, specky went to pick his up, and they had sent the capsuals instead of tablets so she wouldnt give him them !! just as well he had a few left over.

your back rweally hope it eases soon, mine is at the bottom where it has thinned its a pain like something is pinching and shoots down your legs

alls well with our young lady , and the dogs love her which has given my lap a rest, angel the youngest we nickname the thief if someone puts a bag down she slyly goes init and takes everything out xxx

I cant believe it i am furious, the flippin interenet is has gone down again every day this week, so frustrating, I was in the middle of sending a message to Caz and was no longer able to carry on, then it came back on and I sent a pm to Ann, but since then couldnt get on again,... good job D sorts it for me but I have to wait until she gets home from work... so my lovlies, hope all is well and you are all taking care , I have been stuck in all day waiting for the charity shop to take away a bookcase , but no sign of them , so if they dont come tomorrow I will get someone else to have it..., I think I will go and get drunk I am so fed up.... wont take much as I dont usually drink....lol...not like some folk on here....mentioning no names .....tsk.. supping tea all day long
so i will say nite nite and fingers x see you tomorrow.
love Jean xx

Hi Mo


and everyone


sun's shining, and all is well :-D

I went to a funeral this morning. It was a man who had taken Phil for a long walk one morning each week when Phil was still at home. The man was walking his dog anyway, but I was most appreciative as I was able to get a couple of hours deep uninterrupted sleep while they were out. He was such a lovely man, and did all sorts of things, even though he had had bowel cancer, and he always had a smile on his face. The chapel was almost packed. There was a guard of honour of our local fire force of which he had been a member. Afterwards I had a cuppa and a bite to eat at the after-match function, then went and paid a short visit to Phil. I had my hair cut on my way home, so a fairly full day.

Huia.

Afternoon everyone,
It was a damp start, but I risked putting on a wash. Glad I did as it is outside and almost dry.
Just spent more time in the garden tidying up. Hubby cut the front grass. So looks nice and neat out there.
Have completely finished the baby's cot blanket it looks great, rainbow colours so should also brighten his room.
Started a shawl for the baby due in September, haven't done this pattern for 33 years so it is a challenge and in 3ply wool so very fine too.
Have a great day everyone
Hope all are in a getting better situation, and that Caz has now got her antibiotics

Hello gals,
Good to see you all posting, and thanking you for it.

Well we went to see Sally Morgan, the psychic medium last night. The first half of her show was really good, but because it was so hot in the theatre, one lady fainted, and the paramedics had to be called. The lady was fine after she recovered, but went to the hospital for a check over.
The show was halted, whilst the lady was dealt with.
Roly's comment was, " well she should have seen that coming, I suppose", cynic that he is.
The second half of the show was very hit and miss, she was fishing, throwing out names that nobody knew.
It was very entertaining, and at first, Roly was really into it, but come the end he was still very sceptical.
He said, " well me mum still ignores me in death, as much as she did in life"
He was joking though, as most people who go to these meetings, all go with the hope of getting a message from lost loved ones.
I have seen many of the famous psychics, and Sally was the only one I enjoyed watching.. I have a very open mind about the after life, and until I get a message will remain this way.
I hope this does not offend any of you girls, as I would not wish to cause offence.

Once again, it's another scorching day here,to hot to sit in the garden, but still very hot in the house.
I hope Caz has got her air conditioning on, to cool her down a bit.

Must go and do dinner now, Gammon Steaks and pinneapple, chips and peas tonight, yummy.

Love to you all.

Special hugs for my little hunny ((((((((((((JEAN))))))))))))) <3 <3 <3

Hello girls,


Mo, glad to hear that you enjoyed yourself last night...not sure if Roly did though.lol!! I had to laugh at his comment about the lady....I can see what he means.




Lorraine, yes we had heavy rain and thunderstorms here this morning, I don't ever remember having it so bad here, Alun popped me to M&S late this afternoon, part of the road on the way there, was flooded, never seen it like that before.




Jean, sorry to hear that you are having trouble with your laptop, as you say, with it being fairly new you will need to take it back......you shouldn't have to pay to get it done either. Hope they'll get it sorted for you soon.




Linda, I bet the shawl you have started will be beautiful, especially with it being done in 3ply.




Caz, if you are looking in, I hope you have received your antibiotics by now so that you can start to feel better very soon.




Sylvia, hello to you and your OH. Pleased to hear that you have at last started your summer over there. We're all still waiting for ours here in the UK.lol!!




Huia, sorry to hear about the man that helped you with Phil.....with there being a lot of people at the church it sounds at though he was well liked.




Hello to all our other friends on here. Hope you are all OK.





Take care everyone.



Love, Sallie.xxx

Hi Mo


and everyone.


Those storms are awful! I had not heard about them until I started reading about them on various threads on GR ........ so I just had to go and google!


I did note that there were 2 storms .................

Both started in Wales .......................


................. and then got stronger as one went into the Midlands, and the other went north over to Cumbria and into Scotland



At the same time, we are facing flooding over here because of the rain we had last week combined with the snow melt from the mountains and up North. But this is flooding by rivers, streams, creeks, lakes, etc over flowing their banks.



I spent a lot of time on the phone this morning (Thursday) ............ booking the trains for our trip back east at Christmas-time. That's 3 trains each way, total of 6 days travel.

We had coupons that gave us 50% off 2 of the 3 sections ............. and our travel agent could not therefore do the booking for us.


I got it all done, and so we are set.


We do have to spend a night in Montreal on the way over, as there have been some cut-backs in train service. There were 6 trains a week from Montreal to the Maritimes, now there are only 3. It means that we arrive over there 1 day later than originally planned.



But I managed to get a really good price on a room in one of the best hotels in Montreal ....................... and it is 2 floors above the train station (which is underground). So we won't even have to put our noses out the doors if the weather is bitterly cold :-D

The last time we had to stay over in Montreal, it was -30 to -32C ....... in the daytime! I didn't ask what the night time low was!

The hotel is the Fairmont Queen Elizabeth, and I've got a room for 2, queen bed, room rate $135 (or ca £70) ....... which is about half the normal rate. That's what you get for reserving early!:-D



very pleased with myself :-D :-D :-D


Meanwhile, OH was cleaning the carpets with the Hoover steam cleaner we bought a few weeks ago.

He did 2 rooms yesterday, and they look really good. Mind you, the carpet wasn't really dirty in either of them. Just needed brightening up.

Then he moved on to do our bedroom ....... and suddenly announced that the machine was not working properly :-S :-S

It seems that a hose was not hooked up properly, and so it was not sucking water into the dirty water tank ......................... yet, the other carpets had not been very wet, and both had dried in 4 or 5 hours.

He thinks he has now solved the problem ........... and will tackle a really dirty carpet tomorrow (Friday). Dirty because of feet marks where someone sits every evening (and it is not me:-D )



Take care everyone

I am not a happy chappyette. I broke my top front tooth tonight. I think it is actually a previous repair which has broken off. Just half a tooth there. I hope I can get an appointment tomorrow to get it fixed or I will have to keep my gob shut in company :-0 soup and runny eggs for me in the meantime.

Huia

Very quick message girls, my new lap top is broken so back it goes to the store I have borrowed this one but wont be able to use it again so thats it for the time being , please pray and send positive thoughts for Carole (Caz)she sounds as though she is really down and not well at all. so keep the messages going for her , hope to chat again in the near future much love to everyone where ever you are...
love and prayers Jean xxx

Hi all,
I hope that Jean's laptop is soon fixed, very annoying when things go wrong with a new pc.

Huia, I remember the man who used to take Phil for walks and give you respite. I'm sorry to hear that the bowel cancer finally beat him.

Caz, sorry to hear that youa re still so poorly and I am thinking of you.

Sallie, was M&S worth the flooded road though? Did you buy anything nice?

Mo, Roly sounds as if he and T would get on well. I have never been to one of those performances, don't fancy them and not sure what I believe about being able to contact people after death. Sssh! don't tell my sister. She goes to a spiritualist church and insists she is pshychic, has two spirit guides and has 'spoken' to our parents and various other departed relatives. I retain an open mind but I have to admit to not being very convinced. :-S :-S :-)

Hello everyone ,
Good news! My Daughter Kerry's operation went very well, It took a lot longer 5 hrs.as the bulge in the disk had calcified and the nerve was bent , but all is well and the micro surgery was successful, she has to sleep on her side but she is walking twice a day for 30min's she sounds very cheerful.
Huia ,I remember you telling us about the man who took your husband for walks , GOD bless him , may he rest in peace I am sure he will have a place in Heaven.Sorry to hear about your tooth, it will cost a bit to have it fixed.

Hi Caz I am thinking of you and I hope by now you have received your medication,, what a strange way they operate over there, we take the script to the chemist and it is filled right away., if they don't have it , they send a member of their staff to another chemist to bring the medication to you.

Jean I am sorry to hear your new computer has broken down ,I think you may have to demand a replacement .I hope it is still under warranty.

Hi there Sallie, I see that black dog is at you again. Have you ever done any singing I know that you are very good at craft, but wonder if you might think about taking up singing as a hobby.
To me singing is such a wonderful expression of your inner self and I know from experience that elderly people and people with dementia feel so much better after having had musical therapy,( I am not saying you are old or have dementia LOL)
I think it would probably help you if you joined a local singing group,
Keep strong My friend

Hi Mo you sound very chirpy good on you, I am well and very fit as I am still going to gym and I have lost weight 1kg I think it is from not having any added sugar and looking for foods with a low GI.

The singers I have been tutoring are doing very well, I am very pleased with them, we will probably start doing some singing for charity like the Homes for the elderly..
Tomorrow is Saturday and I am hoping to be at the Aust. Rules Football our Team plays The Cowra Magpies, we are leading the compertition and will want to beat this team as they are not a fair team and usually try to knock someones head off, so we like to beat them.
Did I mention it is miserable here very cold and will probably rain for the game tomorrow.
I must go and have my dinner .

Opps I forgot to say Hello Sylvia and Ann also Joyce and Linda <3 :-)
