Hi All,

I was thinking of you two with these poly greenhouses and the wind. My friend had one one year and that blew away with all her veg plants in it. It ruined the lot and tore the greenhouse to shreds and bent all the poles of the frame.

Been up the tunnel and dug half of one of the beds and did a bit of sowing of short beans. covered another bed with its poly ready to put lettuce in and weeded another bed which on digging a bit I dug up a load of last years potatoes, pink fir apple ones. Don't know whether to plant them for this year or not as they grow so long on the tops in the tunnel.

Oh is out ringing with the learners and I am about to make Chilli for dinner for when he gets back.

Evening everyone,

We had a few heavy showers here in between the sunny spells, at one stage i looked in the distance and could see the rain sweeping across and falling from the clouds .

Well i wonder if the girls have got settled into their hotel ok, i bet they have some fun and laughs over the coming days :-D :-D

Maureen ,my toms and cucumbers are coming along nicely too, i take it you got the green house together ok ?did you anchor it down with the ties ? i thought mine was going to take off the other day with all the wind !!

How's the flower planting gone then Frank ? if you've had the showers like here then they have had a good watering in .

Well William where did you end up going today ? glad to hear Carmel's toe is healing , are you managing to eat a little more now with the new teeth in ? i bet your giving everyone a nice big smile to show them off :-D :-D

It certainly will be quiet on here without Jane and Ann.

All that planting will be worth it come the summer Frank, I hope you can send us some photos of the garden in full bloom.

Have you still got your little monsters with you Shirl. what would you do without them.

Looking through the window the weather looks bright and sunny but I don't think it's very warm out there will leave the garden for a warmer day. Popped down to see how my toms and cucumbers and lettuce are doing, they are all coming along very nicely.

Poor David, if you are looking in I hope things improve for you.

Having a clean the house day, so hopefully be back later.

Bonjour to you two!! Have a lovely time the pair of you Bon Voyage (sp)

As Jane is not here must say Happy Birthday to little Amelia. <3

BOO!
Still here :-DWe went to Little Che* and had our breakfast and then nipped into Tes** for a few last minute bits.Now sat here waiting for the off.
I'm definitely going now .Honestly I am .Janice says Bonjour :-D

Morning all/Evening Kim.

Still have to go round the houses to get on here, even though Conrad has given me a direct link to the thread.

Didn't get on Sat. pm as I was busy with the cup final !!! and other things.

Conrad spent from 12.30 yesterday lunchtime till 6.00 pm apart from lunch, cleaning all the crap from my computer. He couldn't believe the amount that had got on here since his last clean up. So fingers crossed I will be able to surf the net without error notices. What would I do without him !!

I see trouble has got off, I hope she has a nice time, and a nice break for Janice.

I think it will be planting and potting today, Trays of plants everywhere, that need to go somewhere, madam is just going out now. I will sort something out for dinner tonight, then join her. I bet I get in the way, if so I will be back indoors out of the way !!!

Have a good day everyone. and don't over do it.

Good morning from a late riser and evening Kim,

Not a bad day here today quite bright. It is usualy better in Cornwall than it is here so lets hope it is ok for Ann and Gordon.

I heard from our David. He says he has the district nurse come to change the dressing on the triple fixator and he has to laydown a lot and has fluid on the left side of his chest. Poor David must be fed up with his own company by now. Shame not one of us is anywhere near him who could visit.

Morning Everyone, evening Kim

Sunny but very windy, rain this morning but seems to have passed over now,

Maureen , I got the phone number of a hairdresser at the start of the year, but when I decided it was the right time, my head flared up and had to put a stop to the idea, then spoke to a next door neighbour and she said she would give me the number of a hairdresser and when I saw her she said that the lady was moving away so the neighbour will have to find a new hairdresser now.

OH off to Paris this morning will be back on Wednesday night, it seems he will be away for a few days every week till the end of May, thats ok don't mind a couple of nights here & there it's when it's all week, that it gets hard work, especially now that daughter no 2 has Kiah they don't come down for dinner very often now.

Maureen, you just said exactly what Carmel said - Viscious - a waste of the talents of two otherwise excellent actors. I know what you mean about the other programme seeming corny, I felt the same, as that was the period I grew up in. By comparison, radio at the time was a much better production of drama!

Going to be quite on here without Jane and Ann around. And where is our Frank lately? Hope he's Okay.

Carmel tells me we're off out today as it seems a nice but windy morning. Don't know where yet, we have to see how she gets on as her toe is still healing. Let you know later, don't get too excited ;-)

Morning/Evening All

Just popped in quickly to say hello and wish Jane and her sister a great time in France, I was always told when in my youth, ...... if you can't be good, be careful ..... don't think that applies now Jane. Too late to wish Ann happy hols but hope she has got to Cornwall safely and will have a great time.

Well done William for spotting deliberate mistakes, I never noticed them, not sure about this programme I know it is set in the 1940's but it seemed like a1940's production if you know what I mean, a bit corny and dated. I'm with you on Vicious William, watched about ten minutes, what a shame, two such brilliant actors but it was really OTT.

Do you not have a haidresser who comes to your house Fiona, that way you could wash your hair yourself, eliminating some of the problem, it really is the best tonic to have your hair looking great.

Have got a couple of weeks now to get back to normal before son's wedding, have eaten and drunk so much in the last month or so if I'm not careful I shall be going up a size :-0.

We should all know what half a crown is, 2 shillings and 6 pence, what's that in today's money but don't know what you could get cleaned for that, quite a lot I imagine. Oops just seen Mel's last post.

Oh thanks Mel :-D :-D

Jane i hope you both have a lovely time away .....and don't forget the plasters for your toes !! looking forward to the photo's

Watch out Lille.....Here comes the Girls, Girls, Girls, Girls ,Here comes the Girls :-D

Dead right Mandy take a gold star........... :-D

Don't forget to take your camera charger, and the camera of course!!

Love to Janice. <3

Finally here :-D.Janice arrived at 11.30 ...Since then we have had the company of Fitz and have spent the last 4 hours sat around the table having dinner.Needless to say a bit of wine has gone down .Fitz has just gone.Chris is just finishing off loading the dishwasher and Larry is getting in all Janice's things in from the car.So we still need to do packing !!!!.I think I am just about done .Just toiletries and the last odds and sods to go in the case.Must do my nails tonight ,and check my wallet with all the important papers ,passport etc are in place :-D

I will try to get back later.
