Please, please, please don't cry Squiggle.  I KNOW I will be more upset than all you lovely people I'm leaving behind!!!  I want to share this trip with you all.  Just don't think it will happen with the husband I've got!!!

Signing out for tonight now.  Hubby went to the boat show in Southampton today so I've not had dinner to cook, and have been able to spend a little more time here!!

Hope to catch up with you all over the weekend. 

I felt a bit left out Joyron

Oh Squiggle please don't feel like that.  You and Yogi are my very bestest friends and I don't know what I would do without you.    x one million.  (hubby is still not home, that's why I'm still here)!!!

Squiggle, are you okay?

Yeah I'm OK, thanks, take no notice I'm just being daft   talk to you both tomorrow.

I would like to ask that too. 

Edited:  Just seen your message above Squiggle.  You will NEVER be daft. 

 You know we lubs ya.

Signing out for tonight, see you tomorrow.

Really am signing out now.  Hubby will be home in a little while.  Speak to you all tomorrow.  Love to you all - Squiggle, Yogi, El Loro and everyone else that comes into this thread. 

Certainly. Did you hear about the race a couple of days between a homing pigeon called Rory and a video file sent by broadband in rural Yorkshire to rural Lincolnshire. The broadband there is so slow that the pigeon won

And of course a good morning to you all.

A nice sunny morning, but very cold here. Even though I had turned down my central heating, it was cold enough to come on. Although I'm on the outskirts of town, it is still warmer than out in the countryside and I suspect that people there will be having to scrape ice of their cars if they go out early. But I think we will find it a few degrees warmer for a couple of days this coming Tuesday and Wednesday.

I'll be out most of the day as I'm off to a friend's ruby wedding anniversary party.

Good morning everyone.
It's bright but chilly up here. My central heating is on this morning, El Loro.
It seems that autumn is well and truly here now.
Enjoy the anniversary party El Loro - but don't drink and fly.

Afternoon everyone.  Just a very quick visit.  I see you are all busy today.  It's bright but breezy here today, good for drying the washing!! 

Squiggle,  I've just looked back over our posts last night and I realise now why you felt left out.  While I was typing my response to Yogi and El Loro you posted you message about El Loro carrying messages.  I think what happened was when my post came up your's was at the top of my screen, just out of sight, and I never read it.  Hence I did not respond.  It's only since I saw El Loro quoting that post this morning that I realised I hadn't seen it or replied to it.

Please accept my sincere apologies.  I certainly did not ignore your post; I just didn't see it.  Please, please, please forgive me. 

Hi all not been on for a few days been so busy, hope you all are well

Good evening everyone

It was a good party. We had a short service in church beforehand where the couple renewed their wedding vows. Quite a lot of people didn't turn up due to illness including the best man at the wedding and a woman who was going to sing "Let us Rejoice" based on Psalm 118 by Martin Haugen, so we had a CD of it instead. It's quite pleasant, but I can't find an adequate recording of it to post here.

Then we went for the buffet lunch, but of course as fewer people turned up, there was plenty of food, so those who wanted to could have seconds. And after that, during coffee we also had a cake baked for the party.

Yogi, I walked rather than drove - I never drink and drive.

Joyron, I hope you got the washing dried (if you actually put out any washing) - better bring it in if it's still out because I think it's going to rain overnight.

Squiggle, I hope you are OK, we haven't heard from you today. I can see why you were a bit upset but it was just that Joyron posted a few seconds after your post so wouldn't have seen it when she wrote her's. I often find that I have composed a reply, then post it, then later on find that someone has posted something whlst I've been composing which makes what I posted either out of date or duplicated.

Skylark, we've missed you. I'm fine, but still a bit full after my gigantic meal at the party.

Hi El, glad you had a nice day, put your feet up now and let the food digest

Thanks Skylark

I've just been looking at the Unforgettable thread and listening to this song. This is a different clip to the one there and is a live performance. It's enchanting and worth listening to.

That was really lovely El, brought a tear to my eye

I never doubted you for a minute, I was only kidding you.
It sounds like you had a lovely day. It was a shame the best man missed the celebrations due to ill health though.

Hi Skylark, how's your little granddaughter doing?

Hi Yogi, the wee one is fine thanks, i have her tomorrow for a bit. She has gone thru another pair of shoes scuffing her feet! So will take her for a new pair, she loves black shoes for some reason! She is a wee character. Hope you are keeping well x

She sounds like my three were - needed new shoes every other week.

Just been having a read thru....hope you ok squiggle

Squiggle, I have sent you a PM.

Sent a PM too squiggle, now dont have me calling out the Mounties

Signing out for tonight. Won't be around till tomorrow afternoon, hope to see you then.

Nite Yogi xxxxx

Good morning to ypu all, especially squiggle . We missed you yesterday.

I think everyone is out today and relaxing

Lovely pictures El Loro.  Yes, I think everyone is either busy or out today.  Let's hope we can all get together again tomorrow. 

I'm in bed with a tummy upset, hope to be back with you all tomorrow.

Get better soon Yogi See you tomorrow

Oh dear, hope you feel better soon x

I have heard from squiggle, i am not going to discuss what was said as it is up to squiggle herself. I will just say that she isnt feeling too good and will be back when she feels better. Sending her best wishes

I've just seen your post Skylark, and have just sent squiggle a PM. Thanks for keeping in touch with her and for letting us know.

Yogi, so sorry to hear you've been poorly today.  Get better soon.  Skylark, I too have been in contact with Squiggle.  I'm sure she will be back with us when she feels able.

Signing out for the night.  Hope to speak to you all tomorrow, when hopefully Yogi will be feeling very much better. 

Thats nice Joyron, night xx   And El too xx

Good morning to you all

I also have heard from squiggle and do understand. She'll be back with us when she's able to.

Yogi, I hope you are feeling better this morning and that the tummy bug has gone away

See you later

Good morning everyone.
I am feeling much better, thank you El Loro. I've even managed to eat a slice of toast this morning. Thank you to Joyron and Skylark for their good wishes, too.
I have also heard from Squiggle and send her a big . I look forward to your return Squiggle, whenever you feel ready.
