Good afternoon All, I am late to day reason is we have had our two grand-daughters, They like to play games on the computer. Then we took them out for lunch, also had a good look round a craft shop as our Emma loves making things. You are right it cost me a bomb at the shop, but I dont care one bit. LOL. I have only just come on line and found a mail from our young Jim. He is having trouble again. Wrote his message to the site pressed the button to add and its gone into the great blue yonder again. Its been lovely here sunshine all day and not as cold as the past few days. But had to de ice the bird baths this morning and looking round the garden I did see some tulip bulbs on their way up. Roll on Spring Hope all of you are well so take care. Catch you later. Tat Tar June.

Hello all I am at my local library. Keep getting froze off on my computor. I have been looking at the cost of a new one, will have to wait for a while. I am hopeing a friends son will come over and have a look. He is so busy with school he is a teacher. I am sure that the high aboves look at where you live and post you to a school the other side of town just for fun. Cooler today it was so hot and muggy yesterday. At midnight it was 32 degrees Celcius. I cannot access my emails from here have to go on a paid unit. Kindest thoughts Pamx

Hiya everyone welcome Rupert :-)))))))))))))) Hi to Dee - glad your ok its nice you pop in here from time to time. Am soooo glad you liked that photo June - that was taken when we got back from the london meet on sunday (we stayed over sat night) and then we stayed with Ricks mum sunday - well we arrived back at his mums about 12.30 had some lunch and then it started snowing so we just had to go out for a walk - I did tell Rick it would be good for his hangover lol - it was a shame it had stopped snowing by the time we got to the ducks June. The London meet up was great fun - met grampa Jim again and had quite a conversation with him - I was sooooo impressed with how many he had in his tree. Anyway it was really great to see some faces we had met before and lots of new ones. To let you all know we have started to sort out the wedding - we dont think we are going to realistically make april now but maybe may we will keep you informed. Anyway hope your all well Love Jan xx

Hiya - It's that man again! 'Underneath the arches on cobble stones I layyyyyyyy' - All join in now ;-)))))))} Blimy Margaret, I know I'm free, but I didn't say I was cheap. A packet of fags, compass and a flask, it sounds like a car boot sale (garage sale to you across the pond!) rotflol. I like Faith's offer best - I'm getting all excited even thinking about getting into trouble, I've got visions of cami-knickers, black, trimmed with lace and smelling of mothballs my mind's racing (slap my wrist someone, quick!) 8-))))))} you wouldn't hit a man in glasses - would you? June, 28 years old, I prefer 28 years of age, the word old has nasty connotations - it's the knees and hips that are old! Rupert, so you've had your ears lowered, I had mine lowered the other day and it aint half been cold since. When I was with our gang the girls were the enemy, because they used to go home and tell mom everything lol It's only now that I know better, that they aint the enemy anymore - Faith, Margaret, June, Dee and Jan - 'who loves ya babies' Sorry I forgot to put you all on my Valentines list, I was always getting into trouble with my late because I reconned that a kiss from the man himself was far better than any card ;-)))))))} In fact I have a magnetic plaque stuck to the side of my cooker which reads - 'I kiss better than I cook!' Tarrarabit - John xxxxxxx.

Hi All, Great seeing you all on the site. Jan & Rick, Thanks for the lovely photo you sent me of the ducks, I have saved it so I can have a look at it at any time. Glad you had a nice weekend. Jim we have got you back, Faith has lost me abit with telling you to do what ever with your computer. I have still got my 'L' Plates on. LOL. Margaret please dont send our John up the mountains again, even with a new compass, only he had a lot of trouble the last time getting down from the top after he had put his flag up. Faith now what this you wearing out your new wellies again, did think you had got them for the wedding, you cant come over here looking rough, so you had better buy some new ones. LOL If you and Margaret cant find much for our John to do, just give him loads of paper, then he can make his ducks and things. ha ha. sure this will keep him happy. Must be away now and put my masters dinner on. Catch you later. Tat Tar June.

Morning Everyone, Sunny but cool, around minus 7 degrees,well looks like everyone except 'The soon to be married's' are back, glad you are all O.K. Dee we missed you. nice to hear from you. Faith we had better start planning now for John's visit , sounds like we will have our hands full keeping him entertained, but then he does like climbing mountains so we can always send him off with a compass, thermos of tea,and a packet of fags and that should keep him happy for a few days. Well Rupert glad you are still hanging out with us, I really didnt know much about the Harbourne area, I grew up in Greta Barr and Aston ,and Kingstanding areas. Well have to go am still waiting for the phone company to come and fix my phones. So bye for now. Margaret.
