The smile is back

[holly17]

Hi there folks sorry I was AWL yesterday as was at the hospital but pleased to say other than hunting for a parking space and as expected they were running late, the scan showed the replacement pipework to the Aorta is still all in order so that's one down.

The British Penny-European Union Directive No.456179

In order to bring about further integration with the single European currency, the Euro, all citizens of the

United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland must be made aware that the phrase "Spending a Penny" is not to be used after 31st December 2015.

From that date onwards, the correct term will be Euronating".

It is hoped this will be a great relief to everyone. If you have any questions please give me a tinkle.

[holly17]

Cheers huff for the hugs, talking of hugs has anyone heard from Huggs or have I missed something ?

Sending hugs back xxx Fred

[butter-fly in reply to holly17]

Huggs is fine Fred though a more than a bit tired recently. She's been having some problems with her lappy now and is taking it to the lappy doc today. Heard briefly from from her this morning.

[holly17 in reply to butter-fly]

Pleased to hear its only her laptop and nothing else. xx

[Jolyn]

You're so funny Fred...I missed you yesterday. I'm glad your hospital appointment went well and that your pipework is still in order.

I'm going to make a nice chicken stew today. I've got no central heating because my boiler packed in yesterday. Ive got some fan heaters though, that should keep me warm enough until the engineer comes back in a few days hopefully. Have a good weekend Fred xxx

[butter-fly in reply to Jolyn]

Chicken wraps and salad for us. Needless to say I won't be cooking. No 1 daughter is doing the cooking. She's a mean cook. I love stews but only like my own unfortunately. My own stews I'd be happy to have it every day but it is a bit of an effort for me now. Have a good weekend Lyn. Hope you have lots of sunshine! Sara xxx

[holly17 in reply to butter-fly]

Seeing we are on food I am doing chicken thighs skinned and boned in a mushroom sauce served on a bed of white rice, and then mixed fruits topped with Devonshire cream. xxx

[butter-fly in reply to holly17]

Enjoy Fred. Sounds delicious! Bet you are a mean cook. x

[Jolyn in reply to holly17]

That sounds delicious Fred...I love Devonshire cream, you can't beat it

[holly17]

Morning my lovely giggle friend, yes all in order or so they said, so that's sorted for another year. That's sounds good I enjoy a good stew in the navy we always referred to it as a pot mess, as when we had to prepare the food ourselves for the mess deck if we were short of funds we threw every thing in it, namely a pot mess, but it always tasted great with a few dumplings as well. Oh dear you will have to invest in some passion killers to keep warm till the engineer comes back, that made me laugh do I read he will be coming to fix the boiler or keep you warm, have a re read of what you have wrote xx Speak later have a well wrapped up weekend xxx Fred

[butter-fly]

Tee eee hee! Loved that joke Fred!

Wall to wall sunshine here so far. Nice enough to sit out which I've been doing for the last hour.

Hope it's nice there Fred and that you have a lovely weekend.

Glad the hospital went well.

Sara xx

[holly17 in reply to butter-fly]

Thanks Sara weather was blowy but now we have that sunshine so like you enjoying the warmth.

You take it steady and relax if possible. Fred xxx

[sassy59]

Very funny Fred and good to hear you are still in full working order. Can't have the pipework going wrong now. Hope you are doing well in general too. Thinking of you and wishing you well. Keep smiling. xxxxxxxxx

[holly17 in reply to sassy59]

Thanks sassy all in order and hopefully after the 25th even the cancer will be defunked for at least another year or longer, as they say the only way is up. Stay safe Fred xxx .

[sassy59 in reply to holly17]

[etch45]

Your mail put a smile on my face, light relief. thank you

Sheila aka etch45

[holly17]

Hi there Sheila which I like better than etch45 nice to speak, my favourite saying is keep smiling so if I can help achieve this at times I am happy, I live with lung cancer which they keep knocking on the head but it keeps popping back and this has been going on for 8 years so I am a lucky one really, going in later this month for them to try again. Hope you are not in to much discomfort but keep that smile going xx Fred

[etch45]

Hi Fred I too like to keep smiling a little in common, I too have lung cancer plus all the other things that go wrong with lungs...8 years eh! gives me hope... hope all turns out well when you go back in this month, I shall be thinking of you.

Let me say I am very new to the site but find a great deal of comfort in it, very pleased I came across it. And thank you for being in touch.xx Sheila
