The wind is blowing, the snow is snowing, but I can weather the storm, What do I care how much it may storm I've got my love to keep me warm. They don't write songs like that any more Give me the popular classical music any day. June I am sorry to hear you have not been feeling too well. We've told you before not to go out on your broomstick without your thermals( or as John might say Passion Killers) Talking of snow we had a couple of flakes the other day but not enough to make a snow ball. to day it has been cloudy but dry. If you don't like snow you should consider moving to Warrington. In the 12 years we have lived here we have only had snow to settle on 2 occassions and that was gone the next day. It is the GOOD LIFE that we lead!!! A Scottish Lament. Here I sit Broken hearted Paid a penny and only f******* Ok Mary I'm coming, sorry don't have time to sort out the letter keys to finish that off, so put your own words to it!!! TTFNTWMALLOL your Warm Jim and Contrary Mary C

Hi All, I am back again, thank you all for thinking of me on this site. Also the mail I have received and the lovely cards. Jan & Rick, Now dears mom is ok, I do have off days but not to worry. I loved your card and yes I have saved that one on my computer. Jim, Glad Mary is going to have her eyes done will keep my fingers crossed that all goes well for her. The snow has all gone here in Wigston. Hi John, See you are still at it are you saving up your pennies for the big trip over the pond ? I hear Faith & Margaret have now started to make lists of all the jobs that want doing. You will have to buy your self a new tool box cant go for a visit with your old one. All for now take care. Luv June.

Hi - It's that man again! 'I'm (still) looking for an angel, but angels are so few. So until the day that one comes along, I'll string along with you' ;-))))))} I agree with you Jim, they don't write them like they used to lol. June, what's a 'Tool Box'? Boy am I glad you're back, I hope you didn't get your poor old knees frostbitten! 8-((} You wouldn't --------------would you? I don't think Jan is ever going to get a snowman, especially if the cat's damaging the flakes ;-))))} Brenda, stop kicking your 'puter, give it a chance to come good - or do you think it might be rebelling at showing picies of our 'Royal' leader? lol. I got to go now to watch Jasper Carrott on telly! Tarrarabit - John xxxx

Hi John. What is a tool box, now dont tell me you are that old and you can not remember. LOL Its not only to put all your tools in but you can put your flask of tea and eats that Faith & Margaret will supply for you when you do any work out side their homes. (giggle) Noap I did not get frost bite in my knees, as Keith made me come in from sitting in my deck chair in the garden. He said the snow would not give me a good tan. The songs in our time always had nice words not like to day all you hear is the drums, bang bang bang and some one sounding like they have a tight rope round their necks. Well I must be away to my bed now, I have my thick jim jams, my wool bed socks and a wool hat to keep my head warm. I wonder if I should treat my self to a long VEST what a sight I would look in all that. So you be a good lad and I would never hit a man who wears SPECKS. well not you. Tat Tar June. xx

Good Morning All, Welcome to our site John Roberts. Come back any time you like and perhaps tell us all of your memories of good old Brum. Most of us on this site dont live there any more, but we all have a soft spot for our home town. Bye for now June.

SNOOPY, People from other areas have not done any thing. If you care to look at the other messages on the list, you will see other parts of the UK that have their own sites. Have you had a go at them ?????? Tat Tar June.

Morning all, A lovely Sunny Saturday morning,and alls right with the world, June is back and is right back on form, guess Snoopy must lead a very boring life if this is all he can think of. John no wonder you havent found an angle if you dont know what a tool box is, and any road up how about all us Angels on this thread,dont we count ?????and as for Simon Cowel that LOVELY!!! man from American Idol. Jan really sorry you dont have snow, strange how the world is, I am hoping we dont have any more and you are still wishing for it. Guess we always want what we cant have.maybe thats Snoopys problem. John Roberts welcome, how is Plymouth I was down around there in 2003 . and Jim hope you find your message and hope Mary's eye problem gets fixed in a hurry. Well all for now off to an Estate sale,and then out for coffee later. Bye have a great day. Margaret.

Hi all - It's that man again! 'Kneesup muvver brahn, kneesup muvver brahn, under the table I saw youuuuuuuu etc. etc. Margaret, when I first wrote those imortal words about looking for an angel - I did say all your names and agreed to 'string along with you' ;-)))))} Notice I've had my beard trimmed????????? June, with all those night clothes on, just think, if you don't put your arms in the sleeves you can turn over without disturbing the bedclothes - did I tell you the one about the bloke who stayed overnight in a hotel room next to the bridal suite. He got up next morning and asked reception 'if the man in the bridal suite was a plumber', when the receptionist asked why the man said, 'because all night he kept hearing the other bloke saying. Over flo, over flo! 8-)))))} Poor Snoopy, fancy being born somewhere else! lol Jim and Brenda must have swopped puters during the night. There you are Brenda, I told you if you stopped kicking it it would come good ;-))))))} Tarrabit - John xxxxxxx

Morning all !!!! A lovely but chilly morning here too June. Might spend a little time in the garden after lunch. Jan has some winter pansies to put in. Had another breakthrough in the tree this week on the main Marshall line and have now gone back two more generations and added another 30 people in. I'm very pleased and it's all down to contact through Genes. Hope you're all keeping well, Rick.xx

IS IT WORTH TRYING!!?? Well that worked so I will try once more. It only seems to happen when the thread is busy but I don't see why it should' still no reply from the Admin People. If at first you don't Succeed Try Again. Well I keep trying but I still have trouble, must be getting old or I'm out of practice?? You are old Father William, The young man said. And your hair has become very white, And yet you insisantlyStand on your head, Do you think at your age it is right? In my youth Father William replied to his son, I feared it might injure the brain, But now I am perfectly sure I have none I do it again and again. That's ME folks Old and decrepid, they do say you are as old as you feel but I have forgotten how to!!! In mind as you know you never pass into senoir citizen status but remain in the full glow of youth, but just you try running up stairs 2 steps at a time when you get to my age. OH BLIMEY Look at the time. Her indoors will be calling for a CUPPA in a second or two so I will be prepared and get the kettle on. So from Boy Scout Jim and his Guide Mary C. It's TTFN, see if that works!! Press ADD MESSAGE and see.
