Tis piddling it down here in *cough* sunny Southampton 

[wizilizi]

I am here

Been having a bit of a carp time lately - beloved dog PTS last Monday

Today had horrid drama with daughter on a roof top.. .. 

She is ok but not ok, & that sort of things rips at me

[bitsnknots]

Good grief Wizi.  Drama with your daughter and a roof.  Hope that everything is sorted now though.

[cookiecookuk]

i am here and it is chucking it down and i think we are in for a huge storm.

[bitsnknots]

We don't have any rain at the moment and it's brightened up a lot as well.  Our weather forecast for tomorrow is for sunny intervals.

[captainbovine]

cor Wizzi, I hope she gets better soon....

well it's been raining here none stop all day, it's stopped now though and it's very much cooler...it must be nice on Saturday though, it's the annual show in the village...famous for it's cattle and sheep and horse judging, I will certainly be going.

I'll be spending all Friday afternoon making cakes and muffins for the stands, I hope they sell....................

but I love coming on here to have a chat and see what you guys have been up to

[rhubarbcity]

Wizi I had no trouble at all with my boys, but my girl was really hard work, she even punctered her neck to say she had encountered a vampire, even at 36 she can be hard work and i usually end up in tears, she is coming to stay with her daughter next week and i just hope everything will be ok, i will be on tenterhooks whilst she is here, she can be very obsesive about things and won't touch doors, or will pick a cup up with her sleeves and cooking can be a nightmare.

Wish i was coming to the show capt, i love country shows.

I used to work at the local hospital and took one of the lads to a show, he had done a bit of Cumberland Wrestling when younger, i had a job from keeping him from stripping of and getting into the ring, as he thought he could beat them, he also said in broad Westmoreland accent, I'll githeee 15 bob for then hos, to what would have been a very valuable shire horse

[stan3502]

I am here but am also working plus childcare for the littlies during the holidays so a little preoccupied.

(((((((wizzi))))))) hope everything gets a little easier for you very soon xxxx

Soeery for having been missing, have spent the day in A&E. The outreach nurse came and did my dressings first thing, and all was fine. Then I suddenly went cold, apparantly my lips were blue, and I couldn't stop shivering.  The nurse dialed 999 and insisted on staying until the ambulance arrived.

Turned out to be the ongoing problem with my body not absorbing calcium, after being given calcium and magnesium by drip I am back to being fine.

It did leave me worn out and I have been sleeping.

Sorry

[bitsnknots]

Sorry that you have had a rough time of it today Stroppy.  Hope that you are feeling better now.  Sending you some hugs. (((((Stroppy))))).

[the-ginger-ninja]

Guardpig twas nice went I left for the wholesaler this afternoon but as I left them someone unzipped a big cloud, M27 got a proper soaking, took the kids to youth group and main road from us to city centre featured a humungous puddle across all 3 lanes. 

Stroppy and Wizi  sounds like you have both had scary, not want to repeat days.

[chickengrandma-2008]

I hope things turn out ok wifi, what a worry and hope you feel better soon stroppy. My only reason for being absent is I,ve got a new Lappy today and it,s soo complicated! Even this iPad is easy peaty now and I didn't,t like it before, Son in law, who can do anything computer-wise was here for an hour and got nowhere. He,s taken it home with him. Don,t get windows eight!!!!!

[chickengrandma-2008]

Stoooopid iPad, of course that,s supposed to say wizi not wifi!!! And easy peasy not peaty!!! This thing puts words in your mouth!!!

[**towery**]

ive been my usual monday busy

had to go to bed this afternnon, i was so tired i was unable to stay awake

feel a lot brighter atm, 

Wizi  hope you get a peaceful night sleep

(((stroppy)))

we watch the quizes on a monday evening so idont bother coming here

CG  i used my mums lappy with windows 8 - was very hard for a day or two

they have an update which  gives a start menu  now

i think that was one of the major bugbears ,

such a crap design  must have been made with  kids in mind,

no adults have liked it the first times they tried it.  took me 3 days  to find out how to sign out properly  lol

Torrential rain here in Cornwall with localised flooding, the sun came out just as I left work and it was very warm, by the time I got home (6 miles) it was raining again. 

It was sunshine and showers all weekend, but thanks to the holiday traffic if took over 2 hours to go 38 miles - grrrrrrrrrr!  Traffic was gridlocked further up the A30 thanks to a caravan overturning - idiot drivers towing caravans are one of my pet hates, they do 70+ and then accelerate to overtake, at that speed it doesn't take much to flip a caravan. Oh and cyclists riding 2 or 3 abreast down narrow roads, who have all the time in the world and no consideration for others.

Blimey that turned into a small rant.

If you feel better after your small rant, then that's fine by me.  Sorry but my nextdoor neighbours are down in Cornwall at the moment but not in a caravan.  Their son is a structural engineer who is working somewhere in Cornwall and I think that it may be somewhere near Truro.  

Must admit, I love Cornwall but it must be horrendous coping with the holiday traffic.  

[guardpig]

Ah yes Ginger - know that puddle well(and most of the others).  Keep saying the only way we will flood where i live is if the council break the drains - pity that seems likelier every day LOL.

Bright and sunny down here at the moment, second lot of washing going out.

(((((((()))))))))))))) to everybody that needs some
