Its Friday

Good morning ladies overcast here but still warm, nothing planned for today except torture of the eyebrows Have fun if you are off out and hugs to the poorlies. Look forward to seeing the photos of Amy's prom Karen.

Good morning Andrea and all those that follow.
Are you a waxer or plucker Andrea ?
Jakes has got his school fete today so hopefully I can sneak out of work at 1:45pm for the 2pm start and not return. Well thats the plan
Seems cooler here today after a really big thunderstorms in the early hours.
Hope you all have a great day

Morning ladies - its warm but raining here. I have the pleasure today of visiting the benefits office to get my Housing Benefit sorted for the coming year - hopefully it will be enough to get me out of this grey area this year, but I doubt it. As long as I don't end up paying more rent and Council Tax I'll manage he he.

Don't forget the photos Karen and Andrea hun just close your eyes and think of someone dishy while its being done he he. I plucked my eyebrows so often in when in my teens that they took the hint and I haven't needed to do them since I was 17 yrs old approx. One less job for me to do he he. Have fun in the school fete Di

Hugs and positive vibes for all and keep those ice cubes at the ready to cool your wrists down - no overheating problems then he he

Good morning Andrea, Di Jenny and girls, I do wish I had some eyebrows to pluck Andrea Hope Jakes fete goes well Di and you get your housing benefit sorted Jenny, I do hope you all have a wonderful day. Janetxx

Tell me about it Lexie

Good Morning Andrea, Di, Jen, Janet, Lexie and all who follow. Hope you find the scissors you want Lexie, I have a favourite pair too would be devastated if they broke. The were really cheap from Tescos, in their craft section - black with purple rubber in the handle, about the size of manicure scissors and cut right down to the point. Before that I had some sewing scissors - I think they were shaped like a bird of some sort and it took me ages to find something I was really comfortable with. Tescos was the last place I thought I would find them.

Much cooler here this morning, slept on the floor downstairs last night as our bedroom was unbearable and Martin didnt want the fan on as it kept him awake. Best sleep I have had for a few days Didnt hear the rain but looks as though we had a fair bit Trying to do some cards today

Enjoy your days all, hope you get to Jakes school Di, and good luck Jen at the benefits office. Hugs to any poorlies out there

Morning all

Well we have rain and fog by the look of it but it wasnt any cooler when i came to work this morning when i did get to work this morning security men were standing outside giving out letters to everyone, appartently someone in the building has tested positive for SWINE FLU dont know who, so perhaps my little office isnt so bad after all has i dont really see any of the staff who work here.

Karen cant wait to see those photos of amy glad she had a nice time.

Feel a bit sick and funny this morning went out last night for fish and chips again but dont feel to good, perhaps they were a bit greasy and it was still very hot while we were out last night.

Andrea i dont have to go out for my waxing my future dil is a beautician (SP) so i get mine done at home free, i have had to start having my chin done lexie lately while she was on hols i had to shave it off and she shouted at me saying they will come back thicker and quicker so now i have to wait for them to be a certain length before i can get a wax the things us women go through.

right off for a glass of water dont fancy tea at the mo,

have a good day hope the fete goes well.

Morning all,

PLEASE HELP

I saw it Janette - you're not going mad

Took a Nytol last night to help me sleep but was woken by torrential rain around 2.00am Went back to sleep till after 8.00 and have been playing catch up ever since!

The carpet is being fitted Monday morning and the bed arrives that afternoon. Spent the whole morning emptying wardrobes and putting stuff in the new ones. Got a few more bits for the charity shop but its looking good.

Marking out where to drill the holes for the newcurtain poles now and should get them up by tonight when its a bit cooler (in between watching Wimbledon)

Still planning to go to Newbury tomorrow but have to fit some food shopping in before that _ probably late tonight the way things are going! Back to the tennis now.

Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Good afternoon ladies wooohooo it is the weekend and I for one am not getting out of bed tomorrow morning much before 10 maybe even later
Hope your all having a good day so far and the sun is shining and all those that are doing stuff have fun doing it
Take care and be good, and that includes you Jenny

ME ???

Afternoon ladies- much fresher here today thank goodness. Went to card club in the end last night. We had to take rubber stamps - favourites and any we diidn't want to swap or sell. Nobody swapped or sold but all did lots of stamping with everyone elses's stamps so have got quite a lot of images to colour in and play with. Just had a phone call from husband of someone who works with Roy - he's going to come and do the roof, hopefully towards end of next week id weather is OK. Just need to chase up the tree man now to get the big conifers pruned. I'd expected him to have done them by now.

A sharp tug on the steering wheel while gently trying to turn the key [don't do that bit sharply or the key might snap]. It used to happen to me with a car I used to have and it happens with Pete's car periodically.

Have you tried wiggling the steering wheel while turning the key to make sure the wheels aren't stuck against a kerb or anything Otherwise sorry, no idea but I have to do that sometimes.

Lou , Micks car is a Vauxhall and he said the same as Jen , other than that can't help , sorry. lexie

Try turning steering wheel backwards and forwards at same time as trying to turn key. I've got a vauxhall and the steering does sometimes lock. That usually does the trick.

The car has been checked by a mechanic and although he has freed it once, it soon locked again so he says it needs a new barrell, so that will be ordered tomorrow, just hope it gets fixed in time!
