That's an interesting article, El Loro.
I don't think I fit neatly into one particular category, I'm more of a cross between the linguistic/interpersonal ones. Does that mean I am doubly brilliant?

 We never stop worrying about them, no matter how old they are.

You are certainly right there Yogi!!!  No.1 son has to go back to Sweden during the second week of our holiday but at least he knows the "ropes" now so I (hopefully) won't worry about him so much next time.

Does your son have to do a lot of flying for work, Joyron?

Yes - you would be a great diplomat with that mix.


I don't want to be too clever for anyone as that can make me seem as if I'm boasting. I probably could join Mensa, but that would make me feel elitist and I don't want to.
I know my mother used to worry like mad when my brother was away on holiday and on a plane. But he would always ring her as soon as he got back to England to put her mind at rest. So your No.1 son will be safe. He sends you his love because I've just flown up to his plane and he told me. So you can sleep easy.

Thank you for that message from No.1 son El Loro.  I feel better now!!!  There is absolutely nothing wrong with being clever.  You should relish in the fact that you obviously come into that bracket. 

Yogi, this is the first time he's flown for this company.  He has to go back for another  week whilst we are away on our cruise.  It all just seems a little overwhelming tonight as I keep getting messages from one or ther other!!  No.2 son is now settled in his hotel.  I will be watching ceefax to check No.1 son's flight has arrived safely - THEN I can go to bed and (hopefully) sleep.  I didn't get a lot of sleep last night. 

 Aww, thank you.

 I hope you get a good rest tonight.

Signing out for tonight, goodnight El Loro and Joyron.

Yogi, obviously I don't know which flight your son is coming back from Stockholm, but on the Ryanair website, the two arrivals in the next hour or so show:

2255

FR 59

Stockholm Skavsta - London-Stansted

ON TIME

and

2315

FR 6635

Stockholm Skavsta - Edinburgh

ON TIME

I.m off to bed myself now.

Night night to Yogi, squiggle, Joyron, Skylark and anybody else looking in

Good morning everyone

I hope everything goes well for you today

It's dry here at present, and quite sunny, but the forecast for us all is if you go out, be preapred for sudden downpours. And the daytime temperature for Friday for my area is a maximun of 12 C - the same as tonight's temperature - though it very slightly improves after that, but nowhere near the levels of the past couple of days. (and that's per both the Met Office site and the sometimes silly alternative site).

Good morning El Loro.    It's dull and cloudy here today and I'm sure we will get rain at some time.

I think you got a little confused last night.  It was my son coming home from Stockholm, not Yogi's.  He actually flew into Heathrow and his flight was 25 minutes late!! He didn't get home until midnight and I have not heard from him yet this morning.  I expect he's still asleep.

Hope to catch up with you, Yogi, Squiggle and all our lovely buddies later.  My hairdresser will be here around lunchtime for the final cut and colour before our trip but I should be about after that. 

Joyron, sorry about that - I was half asleep when I posted that. But the important thing is that your son got back safely.

Hope your hair session goes well. If I ever have my hair coloured, I'll have to go parrot coloured of course, a mix of white (not a problem), blue, green, yellow and red.

Hi all. lashing rain here  Off to the hospital, my daughter has a check up, then we off for a nice lunch . Have a good day xxxx

Hope all goes well at the hospital Skylark.  Enjoy the lunch afterwards. 

Afternoon everyone, wherever you may be.  Well the rain came, as expected.  Seems an awful lot colder now!!

Joyron, I thinks it's been a lot warmer over in your part of the country than for the rest of us, so the drop would be more noticeable, but Friday will be colder still - I wasn't joking a few days ago about people will be turning their heating on, though I think it will get slightly less cold over the weekend. (that's the closest smiley we've got I think to being cold)
( for rain ,  for sun, for thunder, for snow)

Yes El Loro it has been rather warm over here in East Anglia until now.  We tried our heating out last weekend to make sure all was working properly but I was hoping not to put it on until we come back from our holiday.  If it gets much colder I'm sure that decision will change!!

I wonder where everybody has been today.  It's been rather quiet in here. 

Joyron, I don't think you have checked your dialogs/PMs There is one you should read from Yogi - she has also sent it to squiggle and Skylark. Put your pointer over the Livecloud logo at the top of the screen and you will see that there is a message by Your Dialogs. Click on Your Dialogs to get to your dialog page, then click on the one at the top from Yogi.

Thank you SO much for pointing me in the right direction El Loro.  I normally do check for dialogs but for some reason didn't do so today.  I've posted a message for Yogi. 

Thanks, she was getting some follow on tests, so another waiting game for the results, but things looking good. We had a nice lunch, a bit pricey but i wanted to treat her 

Skylark, you might want to have a look at your dialogs as well as Yogi has sent you one. See my post at 17.59 if you are not sure as to how to find this.

I'm glad that things are looking good for your daughter, the waiting can seem like an eternity but the important thing is that it's being properly checked to make sure its OK.

Thanks El Loro, i got Yogi,s PM this morning x I sent her a PM but no thru the block one x

Good morning everyone

Wrap up warm, it's not going to get any warmer today than it is at present (at least not where I live).

See you later

Good morning squiggle

A nice picture you posted today.

I hope it's not too cold for you today. I think we have 3 days of Northerly winds, then they become more Southerly.

Hello lovely buddies, hope you are all well today.

Hi Yogi, welcome back

Afternoon everyone.    Great to see you back Yogi.    Just left you a message.

It's cold, damp and dull here today, but not too windy at the moment.  Had a text from No.2 son to say he was enjoying soaking up the rays by the pool in Tunisia!!

Hope to be back later. 

Afternoon again.    Hope you are keeping warm in this horrible weather.  Out for a meal with hubby and a couple of friends tonight so I won't be about until tomorrow. 

Bbrrrr - it isn't warm is it.

Flaps my wings wildly to warm up

Lucky man!

Thank you El Loro, it's good to be back.


It's bright but chilly here, so I've put the heating on.

Hi all x    Nice to see you Yogi

Hi Skylark. I hope it all went well for your daughter yesterday.

Hi Yogi, yes just more tests but all looking well, fingers crossed  x

That's good. I'll keep my fingers crossed for her, too.

I'm off to have some dinner now, catch up later.

Good morning on a brilliantly sunny day (even if it is cold)

Hope everyone is well.

I've got some blackberries for today. I bought them even though I could have picked them, but the last time I did that I had spent a couple of hours picking them up a local hill, then on the way down saw someone spraying the bushes with weedkiller . Considering the hill is used by hundreds of locals and children from the schools, that man should have been sent to prison for attempted or actual murder. I obviously threw the blackberries away as otherwise I wouldn't be here today posting this.
