Just watched WDYTYA - Patrick Stewart!

As you say, it was quite interesting !

One thing I couldn't help noticing though was that he has a 'favourite cardie' !! - He wore it for more than 3/4 of the programme - In Yorkshire, and in a couple of trips to France and back again !!

Strange also that when his older brother was born he was the 'spit' of his mother yet when we saw him in later life he was identical to his brother and his father ???

Do you think someone swapped them or was it the wrong person in the old photo???

Hi all
xxx



another sunny day ......we're apparently in another period of high pressure ........ with sunny days, temps in the low 20s, and blue skies forecast through to about next Wednesday

There's that little nip in the air though!

The duvet has been very welcome the last couple of nights ............... and OH has migrated back to the double bed from his lonely splendour in the basement!

Is it a leased car or are you buying it?

We had a few nice leased cars when we had a business and it was offset against any tax we had to pay.

I could have a brand new car using the mobility part of my DLA if I wanted...but cannot see the point, money can be used for other things.I worked it out three years ago that I would be paying approx 8k over 3 years and would have nothing to show for it when I had to give it back.

So I spent the same money buying a car and 3 years later the car is probably still worth 4k

Mind you, it won't mean anything to me - I can tell the diffference between a mini and a Rolls Royce but anything inbetween looks just the same to me :-S :-D

I have a white one and hubby has a bigger sandy gold type of one!

Son has a blue one which is bigger than mine and his FIL has one that looks just the same as his but has 7 seats in it :-S :-)

A car is just a car at the end of the day and I really DO love mine !!!

I am sure that I was the only one in our neighbourhood who didn't know the significance of my neighbour's visitor last year in his Aston Martin ! - I thought it sounded quite like mine only much louder !!

I have finally made an appointment next Wednesday to be fitted with a Holter monitor .......... a 24 hour test for blood pressure.


The systolic has been bouncing around and is higher than it should be, even though I am on bp pills.


The doc gave me the requisition back in late June, but we've been so busy ....... plus I've also been dealing with the pre-diabetes diet, etc.

OOOhh 'hubby' had one of those Sylvs - it keeps pumping your arm up every 15 minutes or so and beeping !! - His arm was quite bruised by the time it came off :-D - Not the end of the world though ;-)

Gins Im like Dea a car is a car is a car as long as it gets me from A to B I dont care what it looks like .

BUT OH and sons like their cars.

When we had the really bad weather in Nov 2010 to Feb 2011 was it the BMW's Honda's or Jags that were on the road!

Nope just my wee Corsa that everyone borrowed and it got them all where they needed to be everytime :-D
