LOL Mandy, Just chilling here. Husband and son left on a 4 wheel drive trip at 8am. They are going (as if you know where I'm talking about!!) from Harrison to Pemberton - on the back road. They are staying overnight in Pemberton, and will be back tomorrow. Just a girls lazy day. Shopping, food shopping, wine shopping!!! Daughter fast asleep on the couch. I was able to get 'my' time and watch Cold Mountain this afternoon. It was on the TV. A different movie. Didn't like the ending though. Deb

Hi Mandy, Yes much cheaper. I remember the days (20 years ago) when it was the reverse. We can go out tonight and stuff our faces, come home with enough for lunch tomorrow, and the whole thing will cost (tops) $25. About 10 pounds. Give me the name of something and I will tell you what we pay. Deb

Mandy I can understand not wanting to cook when on your own, I don't it no matter how many are here, lol. eat lots of salads I do. What did you have on the chinese menu? no maybe you shouldn't tell me, it will just make my mouth water, especially if its anything with Prawns lol. Pat x

Pat, My Nan drank about 6 Guinness every night. I do not like the stuff myself. When we were in Ireland I did force one down though. She came over here one year, My husband stocked up on the Guinness for her, but made the worst possible mistake regarding Guinness. He put it in the fridge!!!! I can still hear my Nan! There is a bridge in Vancouver named the 'Lions Gate Bridge' It was built by the Guinness family! I have always said that my Nan funded at least 50% of it LOL Deb

Pat Report 4 Jun 2005 02:38

Hi Mandy - good to see you. What are you doing awake at this hour? Yes feeling MUCH better thanks. Has anyone seen Magi? Deb

Hi Deb I'm here lol as usual. Hope you are OK? I didn't see that mastoid thingy you said you bumped the thread as your Mum had the same op? Any chance you can do it now? Saw the lovely photos of you and your daughter on the photopage, terrific. Pat x

I am so glad that the thread is surviving!!!! Pat, My Mum had a mastoid when she was a child. When she is asleep on the 'good' ear she hears nothing! Boy can I share a story or two of when we were teenagers! Pat I will move the thread up. Magi I too work in a high school. The grad is on Saturday. The enviroment has been a buzz of 'grad fever'. Our daughter had her grad last weekend. If I may say so myself, she looked beautiful. (pics on photo page). She came back from the 'after Grad' on Tuesday. She and her girlfriends had spent 2 nights in Whistler, (sight of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games - a plug!). When she went to her class on Wednesday her teacher commented on how beautiful she looked, that he had never seen her in a dress before, 'and now look at you in the sweat pants'!!! As far as bats go - I don't like them. We sit outside at night and they swoop - too close for me. We should get a 'bat house' as they are wonderful creaturesi... they eat mosquitos. I hate mozzies even more.... Happy times on the 'owl' thread............. Deb
