Hope you enjoyed your weekend in Norfolk Debbie..... Sunday was lovely as I remember!

Last summer I was talking with a couple of recently retired ex-colleagues and we suggested a visit to Chelsea...

Just three of us meeting tomorrow at 1pm.... look forward to seeing you there ladies !

I'd forgotten 'Not the Nine o'clock News' .....There is a lot on radio that makes me chuckle.... the quiz shows, but also some very funny afternoon dramas! Perhaps because it's the words thing again...

Hmmmm - struggle with this a bit as I'm told I'm too serious for my own good..... however, sometimes I will find myself roaring out loud at something I'm watching.... new series 'The Job Lot' had...

I saw this yesterday AnnAMac, although at the time they were only 'rumours'. I am not hugely surprised. As I've said before, despite his good looks, there was always something about him that I...

I felt similar emotions when my ES married two years ago Chrisdamic... although not widowed I found myself alone after my husband divorced me and moved to the USA. For various reasons he wasn't at...

It's the politics of the voting that I find so amusing GL!

Yes GL - I do..... but I'm sure I must have been very young!

I was watching on TV and listening to radio.... used to enjoy Terry but now I much prefer Ken to Graham!

I love my walks .... there's always something new to see, and so many changing colours. It never fails to lift my spirits!

I listened to the first two or three.... then lost the will I'm afraid! Might tune in to the voting, which is always good for a laugh!

I hadn't heard of it either, but took a look and found one in my area... although they don't have any of the extras like book groups. Looks the kind of thing I'd be interested in too!

Let us know...

I start the day with a coffee in bed whilst logging into the Forum and checking email accounts. I'll follow that with another coffee and breakfast in the conservatory if the sun is shining, or in bed...

Yep - I confess to having owned a copy of Atlantic Crossing too! I do like his latest single - defintely very mellow!

Too many other things going on aggie..... and dare I confess I'm not a huge fan????? *Ducks*

My red button doesn't seem to work.... need to get son to look at it when he's home!

Heard Rod talking about the way he likes to trick his kids earlier! Obviously a practical joker!

Karina, you have a wonderful knack of opening a topic that attracts lots of interesting replies!

What do I like in the Forum? . . . Waking up on my own in the morning and knowing I can 'plug'...

Mildred - I'd wondered if you'd entered for tickets too, but assumed it wasn't you they phoned on the radio this morning! Been thinking of you every time I've heard it mentioned, and when they were...

Missed today's programme... was out with my 'Fit Together' walking group..... although by that time we were all sitting very comfortably at a local coffee shop (conveniently located close the the end...

Only me and one (much) older brother, so I had the smallest bedroom all to myself. Small bed with wooden headboard and foot, green quilted counterpane on top, and a patchwork quilt, with pink...

I don't often comment on controversial topics as it's so easy to stir up emotions and conflicts...however..... this is a really difficult one aggie and I've heard the comments on the news today about...

Hi Karina, yes I have my Mum's button tin, which lives in a sewing box/table built by my Dad, still with the original lining. I can remember playing with the buttons as a child, then my sons had...

Sorry to hear this debbie. Had a bout of this myself last year and it wasn't pleasant at all! Take care and hope to hear you're fully recovered soon x.

I agree with Strictly that it depends on the situation each family finds themselves in. My OH and I had no financial help from our parents, although I had lots of support from mine, encouraging me to...

Interesting to read all your recent comments. I was unaware of this (old) thread until now, but have had a similar experience! I was featured in the May magazine but, like so many, was disappointed...
