Dea ...............


that's the kind of house I lived in until I was 11 ................. then we moved to a bigger house, much older and stone built, but it had a brick built extension at the back which provided a separate kitchen downstairs and a bathroom and box room upstairs. LUXURY!!!

BUT ............. the same idea ................... no CH.

Only saving grace was that some former owner had installed gas fires in the 2 biggest bedrooms.

I slept in the slip room over the front hall (and boy, was that a cold room!) until brother left home, then I inherited his bigger bedroom ............... and Dad used to slip in early on cold mornings and turn on the gas fire for me :-D


I was so used to sleeping with a heavy weight on me, that it took me years to adjust to lighter weight blankets!

Toots ................

no, it isn't "you"

People have been complaining for months about the screen sort of slipping upwards, and they couldn't control.


Mine started doing that a couple of weeks ago.


and it only happens on GR

You're welcome StoneWall but without the rest of the team it wouldn't be as good as it is.

I'm extremely grateful to everyone who helps on the page. :-D

You have the "A" team there .... if only Jonesey ...... but he is there in spirit and tips

Jonesey would be spoilt rotten over there...........all those women!! ;-)



Toots, one can never tell whether one is going to be upside down or slipping and sliding on here nowadays........... one can also seem to be pushing through treacle too.......so slow....so many errors..... :-(


Our vicar had his car vandalised last night - it has really unsettled him and his wife. Fortunately, it seems a neighbour called the police and they caught the culprit........high as a kite on some substance or other. :-(

More like the A* Team :-D :-D

If only we could get more people to post there requests for help then it would be perfect :-)

Jonesey tips are definitely helping to raise our profile. All of them have gone viral to varying degrees. One even went viral withing 10 minutes of posting by 5 so definitely going down well. :-D

I'll never cease to be amazed that we have 772 likes in less than 5 months.

All these screen acrobatics when posting does my head in and give me a headache. :-(

It's terrible news about your vicar and his wife car. It's little consolation that the culprit has been caught as it's still a violation. (((((Hugs))))) to them.

Why am I getting a vision of mushrooms wearing frilly little hats and dancing around?? :-S


Yes Stonewall, you could definitely do with some moral male support over there....what does it take to get Jonesey to take the hint??? :-S


Into town today and then a mountain of ironing. Just need to decide which thriller I want to listen to :-D
