Hi Everyone. Just an update on the fires in SA. The one close to us has been contained but the one on the Eyre Peninsula has been devistating People have lost their lives and many homesteads have been destroyed. There was a line of fire that went from one side of the Peninsula to the other and anything in its way was destroyed. Those poor people !!. We used to live in Kimba at the top of the peninsula..proprietors of BP Roadhouse. Weather has been very hot but has cooled down a little. I hear that the weather has been bad in the UK. Back again Later, Brenda

Thats great news June - really pleased love Jan xx Hi Dee - good to see your still about :-))

Hi Everyone, Glad to hear Jim is coming out of hibernation for us. and great to hear from Dee and even greater to hear you are still not smoking, what a great start to the New Year. My trip to the specialist started not so good, got there only to find my appointment was for Monday not Tuesday, from now on I will write it on three calenders and check twice on each. , I just had it in my mind since it was booked in November that it was the 11th,anyway luckily the docs receptionist was really nice(think it helped we were both English and she was the Docs wife) and sent me over to see him at the Hospital he did more Xrays and says I have Arthritis and the two bones in my knee are rubbing together, wants me to try walking with a cane and taking new pills, so see how that goes, last resort is a knee replacement. Well it is really cold here and had lots more snow yesterday, this morning it was minus 26, but sun came out and even though it was so cold it did not seem so bad. Well bye for now Marg.

Good morning all, I see we have a new lady from over the pond. Welcome Veronica nice to have you on our site. Some times we are a bit daft on here but we are all nice people. Marge, Hope the stick and new pills do the trick for you, keep your fingers crossed for me on Monday as I have to be checked out for the same thing, not only for my knees but hips as well. I have a calender on my kitchen wall thats is used just for appointments just in case I forget. (poor old thing I am) laughter. Dee sorry I forgot to say well done on not smoking what will you do with all the money saved ???? HOLIDAY some where nice. Jan good morning to my little one. Are you all better now ?? How is Rick getting on standing in the corner ?? John your missing again we girls want some more funny tales please. Brenda I will be on MSN my to night your in the morning. Faith we will have to get you some new wellies by the sound of it. What colour would you like. ??? To all the rest of our friends Hi from me. Tat Tar June.

Hi Everyone Sending (((hugs))) to Margaret - sorry to hear about your trip to the specialist . Hi and welcome to Veronica in Canada :-))))))))) To my Mummy June - Percy has been playing in the garden again this afternoon - I went out there for about 2 minutes far too cold for me Brrrrrr. My Neck is still a little tingly but is sooo much better than it was- although thinking about it I should of carried it on a little longer the sympathy I got from Rick was soooo good :-)) Fingers crossed Jim is still on the mend Take care everyone Love Jan xx

Hi my little one, So Percy is in the garden again, I just hope he does not put any old rose leaves that have black spot in to the compost bin. These have to be burnt. Any sign of that new outfit yet ??????Now your mom has been looking at hats again. Big ones and small ones. Cant make up my mind. LOL. I think Faith will buy some new wellies for the wedding, but Jan you will have to tell her what colour as I am sure she does not want to clash with the bride. Or the groom in his bright BLUE suit laughter. Its a bit slow on here to day people must be shopping for the week end. All for now tat tar Mom June.

Morning Everyone, thanks everyone for the hugs etc, June hope you have some good news from your Doctors visit, for anyone here young enough to still be able to look after there body do it now, cause even though I am ONLY 66 its to late and I am paying for all the things I could have done when I was younger. Welcome Veronica I have met you on the Canadian thread, and hope you will stay around here for a while. June everyone wants to know about colours, be sure to tell them NO red hats, you know the saying.!! Hope Jim is still on the mend, and John hasnt gone up the mountain again. Well off for a massage on my back and a pedicure. so talk to everyone tomorrow. (its minus 25 again today so the fire is already going)

Hello everyone ! Spent an hour in the garden pruning another huge climbing rose and tidying up leaves this afternoon. Despite lots of abuse from Jan about me not knowing what I was doing I think I made a good job of it lol. Don't worry June, we don't have a composter so no danger of black spot spreading any more than it already does. Can't believe the amount of greenfly on the shoots though, hopefully the frost will kill them off. Rick.xx

Hello all our weather is so much better but still need my wellies, mud and big puddles will be around for a while...June I'll wear my best peep toe wellies for the wedding I just need to find a hat to match LOL...Welcome to Victoria please come back and see us....Dee I'm so glad your still not smoking and I hope your weather cheers up...Marg what meds are you taking for your knees? I hope they work do you find the cold and damp make you feel worse...Where is our John I havn't seen him on here for a few days...Jim hurry back I hope you are loads better, a medal for Mary for putting up with you she'll be happy when your back in your den and she can watch telly...I had an exiting day yesterday my young nephews wife went into labour it was a mad dash to the hospital she had a little boy 7lb 1oz, they have called him Cyrus cant say I like the name much but he is cute...Take care all

Hi Percy, You must get a compost bin its the in thing LOL. Better than putting it all in a heap in the corner of your garden. Faith dear I am so pleased to hear you have some nice wellies for the wedding. But we must all keep away from the BRIGHT BLUE colour as that's for Rick. Not sure what colour he is having for his tall hat. it may be stripes. I think it could be blue and orange. laughter. Can any of you Sing or play a musical Instrument as they need some thing for the reception. I can play the COMB & Tissue Paper. so I will have this post. laughter. Catch you all later. Love June.

LOL June - you're repeating yourself !!!!!!! Remember this........... Added by June Moorby on 02/05/2004 22:19:20 Hi Jan, Can I come to the big do for Rick, I might be able to help with the music. I can play comb and tissue paper. Tat Tar June. Rick.xx
