Night Sylvs and thank you for .......everything <3



Why are you invisible Lainie? I've just spotted you. :-D


Gins.....you are a .........double numpty!!


I have been faffing about sorting summat out on the computer and time just flies by when I'm doing that. Think I've finished now though.... :-D :-D :-D



Gins, you will be happy to know that my first load of whites is spinning away merrily. As soon as they are done, out they go and then I'll go for my shower. :-D


Cleaned my oven overnight too.......more brownie points????


Morning Dea and Joy........ :-D

Nite nite Sylvia <3 <3

Good morning Cynthia !! - Sylvia's brunches get more and more sumptuous don't they ?? - I just don't know where to start ;-)

Why don't I work from left to right along the table and you can go from right to left - we can have a chat in the middle then "waddle" past each other and carry on to the end ??? ;-) :-D

I am a numpty but JB is a bigger one


He lost his wedding ring last night.......phoned the pub, taxi firm and nowt :-( :-( :-(

Its not worth much in terms of cash........but Im sure you all know its 'invaluable' in terms of sentiment

He lost two stone and so.......his ring :-(

Awww - that's SO sad Ginns - I know exactly what you mean about the 'sentiment' of it <3

I do hope you can find it - it could even be somewhere in the house as he could have lost it earlier and not noticed at the time!

I have the same trouble with mine since I lost a lot of weight - I found a very old cheap ring in my jewellery box from many years ago which is quite small so I have taken to wearing that after my wedding ring which prevents it from sliding off.

Dea Xxx <3

Thanks Dea....were both gutted

But, just been on Skype to mom (MIL) in Wales and she said JB can have his dads wedding ring. That will be lovely, as be both love and miss Jack and it will mean sooo much

:-D

Oh good.

First in the queue for Saturday brunch.

A little early I know but I usually miss it.

It should have been my lie in day today but I woke at 6.30am.

Drat those water tablets.

What a lovely gesture by your MIL Ginns, - make sure you place this one on his finger, just as you did the first !

I remember in the very early years of our marriage, not sure exactly when, but I had vowed never to remove that ring!

Unfortunately, I had some slight dermatitis on my hands and it was irritated by my ring so I kept moving the ring further down my finger to revieve the itching.

It just 'had' to happen ! - One day, I moved it down too far and it fell off onto the floor - I was devastated and in tears 'till hubby came home - I would not put it back on myself as only he must return it to my finger for it to remain 'special' .

Sounds really silly now but at the time that was exactly how I felt :-)

Having his father's ring won't be exactly the same but I am sure it will be just as 'special' to you both.

Dea Xxx

First in the queue LK!!

Dea's almost cleared the table :-D

OOOOHHH DEAR !!!!!

I fear I may be leaving you soon !!! :-S :-( :-(

Just had yet another telephone call from Security section of 'Vindows' (The India branch ;-) )

They 'are receiving' very very many serious 'varnings' and error messages from my computer and it is in danger of iminent crashing or 'demolishioning' ???

I think I managed to reassure him that I did not have a problem with my computer so he could sleep soundly tonight without having to worry about me ;-) :-D :-D :-D

If I don't 'explode', I will be back later :-D

Dea Xxx

I had to read that twice Dea!

You should have said......I dont have a puter

I said that the last time Ginns - I just wanted to have a little more 'fun' with this one ;-)

Dea Xxx

Gins - just playing catchup over the last couple of days threads.
so sorry to hear that JB lost his ring! It is nice of his Mum to give him his Dads which will help a little. As you say its the sentiment part of losing something like that :-)

Dea - I had a little laugh re your impending explosion
:-D :-D :-D

Off to bring in the washing cos its got really dull :-(

Thanks Linds

I have kept looking all day, on and off........dont hold out much hope

But youre right, at least we'll have Jacks ring, and he meant the world to both of us


Where is the Boss......aka Cyns?

It didn't happen Linds !! ;-) :-D :-D

Dea Xxx

Dea,

I am most impressed by your patience and concern when dealing with the person who called you from the Indian branch of "Vindows".

Personally if it had been me that he called I would have been very
tempted to tell him to "Back-waahs-nand". (Hindi)

I will leave it to you to guess what it means. ;-)

Is there an 'F' involved Jonesey, or have I got that wrong??

Dea Xxx
