Good afternoon Pete and everyone.

Glad to hear that you're getting through it Pete, you CAN do this despite all your obstacles at home. It must be soooo hard trying to quit when you live with smokers. My friend smokes about 4 a day and when she was sat outside with the door open I could smell it upstairs - it's just so amazing how sensitive to the smell you become almost immediately. Any non-smoking friends don't seem to notice the smell mostly although I think they are more switched on to it these days.

Jonathan, I hope you're coping well today - go and give some of your sporty things some welly then you'll feel much better for it. Nearly 3 weeks now - how proud do you feel about that?!

Hi Sue, its lovely to see you gal just wondering, where you hang your washing have you got a big window box ?? or a flag pole ?? or peg it to a kite and let it fly out the window

Enjoy your walk with hubby Sue speak soon

Hi Pete, nice to see you on here. Well we`ve just got a thunderstorm here in Yorkshire. But it isn't any cooler.

I am surrounded by copper pipes and different types of tools etc at the moment. Son in law fitting radiators. boiler is done. Good job we have had the boiler replaced I think the gas board would have condemned it . There was even a dead snail in the casing of it. Ah well will get there slowly. better go and make them a cuppa. catch up later. xx

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to jillygirl]

Hey Jillygirl, I hope your keeping the men fed, and watered gal am sure you are as for the dead snail, he was a slow coach anyway

Am so glad your Son in law is better now, and able to sort your heating out, ready for the winter

[sue52 3 YEAR WINNER]

Hi everyone,

We still have the sun here but it's heavy rain all day tomorrow so no walking then.

Sorry i missed you earlier Andi, don't know how i managed that :D, hope you had a great day

I prefer a kite for my washing Pete, how did you guess it dries it quicker

Hi Jillygirl It's good your boiler is done, thank goodness the snail was dead, they can be dangerous

have a brill evening everyone

[andi22]

Evening all.

Well, Pete'll be surprised that I actually did a bit of gardening for an hour before lunch. The sun came out so within 10 minutes I was dripping. (I know - TMI ) I thought it was supposed to be raining by 11. It finally started about 4 o'clock and may stop during the night.

Sue, hope your washing dried ok - how many flagpoles have you got then? Do they poke out of the windows?

Jilly, good time to be having the heating and boiler replaced - you should be snug as a bug come the autumn and lovely and cosy - who needs to be cold in this day and age.

Pete, glad you think my pins look ok - my pt commented about how lean he thought my calves were the other day - I didn't think they had any fat on them to start with.

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to andi22]

Hey Andi, how you doing gal ??

Yeah, we've got the thunder & lightning now gal just hope it clears the air a bit, so we can sleep at night eh Its absolutely flippin erm, raining alot here The power has gone off 3 times now, my fish pond is about overflowing so maybe will have fish for breakfast tomorrow, with toad in the hole for lunch

Andi, just love your new pic gal, erm it just tells me something

[andi22 in reply to monky]

Well, I was really looking for something more like your pic as I thought it appropriate for the current season. The pic is a girl on a beach but had to be cropped - hairstyle's not right though, unlike my last pic.

Have you found your toad now then?

[monky Administrator 45 Months Cake sniffer outer in reply to andi22]

Nope, cos I think we will have to start swimming shortly, I tell ya, its absolutely teeeeeeming it down, hmmmmm this will check whether I fixed the guttering or not

Andi, just wondered how you friend was

[andi22 in reply to monky]

Sorry, I kept forgetting to answer that question. She finally had an op on her wrist on Thursday. She broke the bone in her arm and one in her wrist was in lots of bits apparently. I think she's had a plate and 2 screws put in but she'll have her plaster off by the time we go away fortunately. It will never be 100% right and she'll have arthritis in it eventually. Looks like I might be having to carry her bags when we go away.
