Oh btw I forgot to tell you all she's asked David to give her a lift to the airport in Feb so she can go to visit Marcus, he's paid for everything but if she could get out of it she would.....hates travelling by herself. These mud slides are worrying, hope Margaret's ok? I was listening in the car but didn't hear where she lives.....phew!!! Night shop Bond? BTW you would have walked into that one Bond...Mrs B ."You went painting stage sets"  Look at the glam girl CB.....think she needs a large L&L  well if you can clean around  you can make some drinks. Benn to the small Palmers .....I had cottage pie and veg, and gravy......and custard slice. also bought Susan a make-up bag in the sale. Ohhhhh I could have got Rachael one. and  and also my mate Janice. Then went onto M&S and I got a skirt in the sale and a lovely woollen sweater, that wasn't in the sale though. Neither in your bedroom Carole. Oh changed the avatar to the one of me in Coombe Abbey on the sofa. |

| Boy Bond your still not 100% and Mrs B is making you hard task master she be Too bad Bev had not asked until AFTER his funeral Vicky save you explaining it all before hand Vicky if your seeing my lamp your seeing the plant as it sits right next to it and I have the lamp on at night and when I get up now while its dark and it LIKES the light It was only about 10" high when Linda gave it me ... I have never had a Amaryllis plant before so very interesting to watch it evolve Not only are the floods hitting the West coast but they are telling you to try and clear the snow away from the house as from Saturday am we are going to get between 3 to 4" of heavy  that could cause problems Temps with this rain will be around 50f but then back DOWN we go the following week into the low 20's so cannot put our mittens away yet OK have LOTS to do this morning before Barbara gets here as its Frans for me Spencer has two appointments one for his GP and another with Carmen's lawyer whom they got after their car accident when that guy cut them off last year so he will at least be here while Barbara is  Gil as I still worry about her handling him alone But now Blaine just got up saying he is going in at 11am as he is still not feeling 100% They are saying this is turning out to be the worst year in ages for the flu and there have been 5 deaths in CT from it already so HE will be around as well while she is getting Gil ready guess I lost confidence when she let him fall like she did Anyway I shall return freshly quaffed around noon till then  _________________ Carole B [i]

| I have to get David to put this site up to see the plant Carole......at the moment I'm seeing a lovely light shade.
No Bev didn't ask questions.....I had told her when Tony phoned from the Hospital (as I mentioned it on here a week before he died) but she's not asked about him until today, and it was only "How's Tony?" I thought I was going to get away with it.
Ok night night all of you......speak tomorrow.

| Well what with  she had me  and then Bev who'd been injected with a gramophone needle....I was like a  and then she tells me about Evettes Mum who's got bowel cancer and isn't too good, "When she goes Evette will have all her money and the house to sell" ££££ signs were in her eyes. Oh she asked about Tony so I said "He's died" and got choked up....."Nooo" she said and then asked how I knew I told her Julia had told me, she wondered when he would have his funeral so I said "Julia's going to tell me" Oh well she said you'll be able to tell me....."Yes" I said "Afterwards" I thought to myself. then changed the subject. So BOND no letting on.  ......I wouldn't have let on only when she asked I felt "Oh crumbs" but then decided I'd tell her a bit. You're hopeless though Bond......excuses excuses. "I was invited" on your sick bed is another matter all together. But as I said excuses excuses. Oh meant to say we also had new lights....white now. Oh btw Margaret Cov have drawn again Milton Kenyes Dons......you asked. Hope Gil is better today Carole. Went out to try and get a dish bowl for Benjie (left his others at Susan's  ) so we thought we'd buy him another one.. (we'd got a spare one) anyway could we find one the right size....either TOO BIG or TOO SMALL. we did end up getting one but slightly bigger than the size we wanted. Also got a 40th birthday card for Louise (Susan's Mate)  L&L Carole. |

| No  party just tired. I went to my Drs. early yesterday morning and we talked about the results of the Ultra sound I had last year in autumn. It seems it was "unremarkable" so no change which I could have been told over the phone or in a letter! I went round to the  Drs. office and they said I had not had an eye check for two years so that is where I am going this morning. Later I am sussing out a Smog check Station closer to home so I can get BB done today. Won't be many drivers out today as we had a thrashing storm front go through last night and I did not hear it! Had several fronds from the Palm tree come down, 2 are on my neighbors garage roof. There are several mudslides in the Burn areas that are blocking roads and bound to be a few more trees down as well. The local TV news station talked to one man who just escaped having his Prius covered in black mud and ashes by a few inches. It caught the back of his car only so managed to drive out of it. All kind of accidents on the Freeways this morning as people will not slow down. I don't understand these people, everyone thinks they are so important that they must get to the head of the line or given a free pass to get through when others can't. They all have cell phones in their cars ,why can't they call ahead and say they are delayed! At least their excuse can be verified by turning on the traffic stations. There are cctv cameras every half mile on our freeways and hundreds of civilians who text in every morning with current traffic conditions as they commute to work, yes its illegal here but so valuable to traffic boss, CALTRANS to see where to divert traffic with their huge electronic notice boards. They say we are not finished with this rain front yet as more might come through today later. The  is out right now and everything is glistening as they are wet. By the way, I did have my Flu shot while at the Drs. office, got a little reaction but was over it by bedtime. Better safe than sorry. Got to dash as I must leave in half an hour and I must be at the place on time. TTFN |

| Next time Bond ask about The Witch.....I'll have to give you her last name. I know Rosie was signing books in Waterstones and The Witch said "Oh I could have popped in and seen her" The Witch wasn't free the signing day, though she did say to me "You can go in and say Hi from me" but David wouldn't ....I've got nearly all her books, (Unlike Mrs B who had to buy some before she met her  ) she's brilliant, Susan's friend in Ireland also has all her books too  there's also that writer who writes kids books, she went to my kids school, her granddad lives just around the corner from me, or did unless he's dead, but I can't remember her flippen name,  Anyway the next time ask Rosie about the Witch. OR ELSE. You could of just dropped Mrs B off anyway.....it wasn't YOUR School do.  you could have been really ill.....you daft bat. AND breathing paint doesn't help. Horrid day......and  been. and later on Bev's coming here. So back later. Oh Tony's getting buried on the 26th......the church will be packed. |

| Had a wonderful weekend......got back late this afternoon, my knee must be coming along walked near 2 miles yesterday.....with the dogs and then to this great pub, fantastic views, had a great meal .... and some of the houses around, over a million and one was up for sale.....though as we were saying "There's bound to be something we don't like about it" Oh the ones they're interested in they've just started building so the one Matt & Susan are interested in you couldn't see the layout, Matt & David did climb over the fence to get a better look ....they know the size of it, rooms etc but they wanted to know how steep, if at all, the garden would be.....they are going to be built on a hillside. Susan's asking the agent various questions Wednesday, how steep the gradient of the garden will be? etc.. as a spot it's quiet with nice houses around.....I can understand the people around not wanting these houses built. Lovely views where they're going to be built I have to say.....it's just how steep the garden will be. Was saying to David if we moved around there look at the great walks we could take Benjie on. Oh Margaret Melanie mustn't feel guilty she missed what was going on with Jim she had enough to think about. Great photo btw....though I can't read the article, but I love it. Yes  please Carole. Stay wrapped up......and don't over do it. |

As to that cough I HOPE your taking SOMETHING for it Weather here still cold 23f but FEELS like 9f but should start to swing around ,they are saying Thursday could be 50+ then we will have flooding with all this snow melting ,this small storm bringing a bit more snow scheduled to begin around 3pm {just in time for the evening commute } Spencer said he will be home later today  Tabitha will be a happy kitty as she cannot understand WHERE her daddy has been She sleeps on his head at night normally Wonder if Vicky is on her way home and what they thought of the houses or spot where they are being built You know kids these days think nothing of moving do they ? I HATE moving such a CHORE One of the reasons my Mum was shocked when we moved 3500miles away back in 1967 Well today would have been Ruthie's birthday {she shared the day with Elvis} still miss that woman Hope Marge had a better night And I shall be back wondering if the Aid will be coming today Having to watch Gil as well as his urine is very dark ,to ME that is blood somewhere ,going to call the Urologist to see why he never called with the results of Gil's scan and whether this could be coming from his pancreas _________________ Carole B [i]

| Afternoon you two ... Marge I think you know your doing great but maybe you need to just sit back and change down a gear and take a deep breath before you embark on your next project
That is what I have to find before Feb 1 my car tax for the city Going to send off to immigration to see if I can get Gil a fee waiver now he has Husky C ,as that may qualify him Marge I don't think Vicky will be back till tomorrow Bond they normally stay till Monday
Now as to all this sleeplessness ,can't you Bond ,give Mrs B a knockout pill so you can rest ... As to Marge being restless with night mares that could very well be because your brain has too much in it right now so slow down a tad Weather is very "pretty " looking here sunny blue skies but oh that temperature 16f but feels still like 6f Speak tomorrow _________________ Carole B [i]

| Hi Marge, yes as a lad/youth stocking tops were the be all and end all We had our cavity foam filled some years ago possibly five years ago and we did notice a difference but now it just cold out nd warmer inside I haven't been sleeping too well if it's not been my coughing it's been mrsbs And because I've not been sleeping well I've had a nap in the afternoon and that makes me not sleep well at night so the circle goes round Still time for drinks |

| I think that 1947/48 and 1962/63 were record breakers for the duration of the cold weather and the amount of snow that fell in the UK. Although they had a number of winters that came close in between and since. We don't need heavy insulation here because it seldom gets cold enough even for frost! The metal framed windows we used to have were warped after being used since the house was built that when we got high winds you could feel the draughts all over the house. The funny thing was the letter slot in the front door (which we installed) would blow raspberries if the wind blew just right! I must be going through a phase at the moment as I have not been sleeping well and having a few nightmares. I get this way when I feel overwhelmed so had to sit down and calm myself and sort through what needs taking care of first. That is the Drs. appointment tomorrow morning at 10:20am. After that its off to the  Drs. to ask if they can get my Dr, there to just fill out the form for the DMV from my last exam a year ago. (DMV insists that it has to have a copy that is less than 6 months old) As my prescription was still the same a year ago and I can drive perfectly well with these glasses, it should not be a problem. As soon as I have the copy in my hot little hand I can make my appointment for the written test and the driving test. Part two of my property taxes are due at the end of this month and I need to get BB smog tested which you can almost do without an appointment in this state. It only takes an hour and the result is sent in electronically. Its going to be paperwork, paperwork ,paperwork today as well as some I have to do a run to the grocery store as I am low on I thought you would get a kick out of the newspaper cutting, I also have an 8x10 glossy photo of it but it needed the caption to explain why we were there. Remember I worked in an drawing office with about 2-3 hundred men. I was afraid that I would be the butt of endless jokes about my fancy stocking tops at work afterwards so decided to spoil their fun. It was not meant to be for publicity. Its overcast and dreary again here and we may get some rain by tomorrow , if not tonight if the radar is correct. Wonder who Coventry City will meet in the next round of the FA cup. At least the team has some fight in it which is good to see. TTFN |

| Well sounds like Melanie is TRYING to sort things out with Jim ,but I agree she should cut him loose if it happens again as it could affect her ,and as you say Marge she has enough on her plate ,PLUS a NEW puppy It states on my Mums death certificate what she passed from in the nursing home our youngest sibling took it upon herself to put her in ,both Wendy and I said in doing that our Mum would not last long ,and she did not just under 3 weeks wonder why they never listed your mum Marge DAM forgot I was going to put something on FB as Mum passed away 16 yrs ago on Jan 3rd Had it all worked out but then things happen here and it slipped by me Glad you had a nice evening and going to see Lorna tonight how;s the "bucket"list doing Glad I read your post as looked on the regular channel and its showed no games on #212 but just found the Chelsea game on #213 I see City made it through the 3rd round beating Stoke 2-1 Bond I will take a L & L for later and can I have a coffee made with two sugars and creamer please .....

| Recording the Chelsea FA Cup game while I gather my little grey cells together. Spent a pleasant time visiting June and Rob for a few hours yesterday. I think they wanted to know how my road trip went as they don't drive much anymore, only locally. I think I am due at Lorna's tonight. Melanie phoned me yesterday to tell me she is adopting a Chihuahua puppy. She went to the local dog rescue place to see what was available and said she could not resist in her words the "Overflow of cuteness". She also told me that she and Jim are taking it one day at a time for now. with Jim doing all that he should have been doing for months now. She says that she needs to work on her part in not picking up sooner that he was circling the drain again. She also made it clear that if he couldn't stay clean this time she would file for divorce. Even people who have been clean a long time still have blind spots where loved ones are concerned. I won't be satisfied until he gets a real evaluation from a GP. and sees a trained therapist to help him see the damage he is doing to himself and how its hurting those around him. The awful truth is that some can never get past the stage he is at with relapses every few months if it is Bi-polar he has. Melanie has enough to handle with recovering from two major surgeries and starting her new treatment schedule soon. She has had the first infusion and next comes the series of shots. Found out my next Drs. appointment is Monday morning, not the 18th as written on my appointment card! (I just got a reminder message yesterday). The fifth of January would have been my Mothers 98th birthday but she died in 1970 at the age of 50. Her death certificate is useless as it says nothing about what she died from in a major Birmingham hospital after being send there from Walsgrave hospital as it was known then. No wonder my emotions are doing a rollercoaster ride. Have no fear, I am OK, so will carry on by keeping busy. Sorry Carole ,only Branston here , I ate the rest of the Pickled onions yesterday with my lunchtime sandwich! |

| Good morning all from Atherstone a bit cold here but not like the cold over in the USA Yes yes there was and has been some groups as good for a time, I think as I've said it's when these TV pundits say that a band of today is the best band, Yes I've seen bands locally that play all their instruments and write their own songs, one of my favourite groups if not my favourite group is Alan Bown a very brassy group. But they would have the coverage around the world like the beatles had /have I hope you have a good weekend at Susans say woof to the doggies for me But first breakfast have something warm before we all set off Porridge and honey plus toast and marmalade Coffee tea orange juice Back later |

|  just a cuppa please Bond. Oh what about the "Hollies" or "Herman's Hermits"  "Woke up this morning feeling fine, knew something special on my mind " a guy I'd met had the DJ play that to me.  oh and "Freddy and the Pacemakers"  "Ferry cross the Mersey" love that song. Yes the Beatles had more number ones, best albums etc I'll give you that.....and I certainly liked the Beatles better than the Stones.....but I liked other bands more than The Beatles. And John was a friend of my cousin Teddy, they went to school together and John would often pop in to my aunt Ruth's and doodle songs on my aunts magazines which she'd go mad about......often smacked him around the head with it "I've not read that yet" IF only she'd kept them.....but then she didn't know Oh btw just in case you missed it......we're going to Susan's for the weekend. |
