Evening, d'you know I really can't wait for my retirement to come round so I can stop looking forward to Fridays (I have 45 more to go).

Speaking of which, you got the gang coming round tonight Gins?

They will soon pass MC

Then they give you money every month - it is just like working and getting paid but not vey much !!! ;-) :-D

I had my lovely neighbour come over just now to bring me some tomato plants that they had grown.

They are Indian and he, although very nice and always smiling, does not speak English very well !!

I know that they are both concerned about me and when he gave them to me he said (in very good English !!) - "Are you all right' ?? - I answered to say yes I was fine but I am sure that he had been practicing that because it came out SO well !!

That is SO sweet !! - That is probably the best English he has ever spoken !

Makes you feel so humble !

There was no need to edit Renes - we knew what you meant !!

I am having problems posting on here

It will not post a reply ...... then they are duplicated .... I try to remove the duplicates and it says Error ..... Then I look and all posts have gone

Is this just me ... Or do others have this

This is just par for the course Renes - it is why some of us have got 'fed up' with it !!

When you post and it doesn't show - just click to go back and then click on 'post date' to get th post back to first page, then click on 'post date' again an it will refresh and bring you back to the thread but upside down !!

Sounds very silly but that is what you have to do to join us here ;-) :-( :-D

Cyn,

"Avoiding us does not mean we will go away you know......"

Not avoiding anyone, like I said still considering things.

Interesting statistics:

80+ posts on Fred in the past 48 hours. :-D

Time taken to achieve the previous 80 posts, over 6 days. :-(

I will email you later.

good morning Jonesey!

Mornin all........

Yeahhh............breakfast is back, good un proper <3

MC, no Friday gang, just me and JB, nattering away at the talking/thinking door

I see Jonesey stirred up the pot and buggered orf!

Going to the bank this morning to pay bills. I put the wrong password into the online banking the other day and it locked me out. Got sent a new activation code, that went t#ts up and have to wait for another one to be sent - 5 days before I get it

Bit of a tricky sittuation, how do I pay any bills/wages when I cant access my account :-0

When I went to the NW yesterday, they couldnt do ANYTHING to help, except CHAPS payments......£28 per transaction :-| Strange that isnt it, account blocked but they can do CHAPS

Buddy banks, what a rip off, its my money and I want it...............

Ooops........missed you there J

Soz

Good morning all :-D

I will just have a quick bacon buttie before the others get here, although it doesn't look as if we will run out of food today, you have provided a feast for later Sylvs - thank you <3 <3 <3

Do you not have another bank account Ginns, with one of them old fashioned 'cheque book thingies' ? Or one you could use? (JB's or son's ?) then you could just do one 'huge' CHAPS transfer into it and pay everything out of there?

Dea x

It's not that simple Dea, it's a business account and the tax man doesnt like stuff like that! If transactions are not transparent they get a bit twitchy

Going in to NW this morning

Good morning................................oooooooooooh.....sausage patties and grilled tomatoes please Sylvs. Thank you very much for that lovely breakfast. I now have to consider something from the brunch menu........ decisions, decisions..... :-D


Glad you had a good meal out with your friends.


Take your time dear Jonesey, take your time. Wouldn't want to rush you at your age.............please, just finish that ciggie and then take time to consider your options.


MEN!



Gins.....you is a plank messing up yer password. Dear oh dear. :-D


Never mind, going into the bank will be good exercise for you.


Dea, I've had to write two cheques this week and I'd almost forgotten how to do it - we rarely use the cheque book these days. Mind you, OH was in banking and still prefers to use cash and cheques rather than cards..........he'd probably use a quill pen if he had the option :-S


He's a funny old thing at times. We have a separate small account in a different bank and I use it purely for any internet transactions for safety. When it needs topping up a bit, he still can't get his head around the fact that we can go into that bank, withdraw money from the other bank account and then pay it into this one. He is getting used to being frogmarched in though..............bless....... :-D


Off for a browse.......it's a bit chilly up North today.........brrrrr.
