Good Morning

Love photo Wendy, certainly cheers you up.

It is raining hard here, very dark and miserable, going to the Metrocentre. I am going to get Milo a coat, as his coat is so thick, it takes a long time to dry, even after towel drying it.

good afternoon,
I went to the seaside today to Sheringham, to get a Christmas present. I went through fog and saw where the road had been flooded in several places.
At last I seem to have started on Christmas.
I thank you for your help, with the front page, it is difficult at the moment.
I am loving IMAC on the tv at nights.
with love
Wendy

Good morning, it is grey and wet. I am heartbroken this am, after hearing about the way Gladys was killed ( our female swan). What kind of sick and evil individual does something like that Probably the same ones who shot her cygnets in September. At least that would have been quick.
Hope you have a good day

I met a man today who is a carer and he had one of our laptops.
He was so excited.
It makes it so worthwhile when they react like that.
I have been busy washing and cleaning and now going to get my tea.
love

Good Afternoon, it has been dry, cold and windy here. Have been to the doctors, as I have a swollen, painful scar. The doctor says it is red and inflamed, thinks it is an infection, he has given me anti biotics. The doctor is going to fax a letter to my consultant and for my consultant to see me and arrange a scan. They need to make sure it is an infection and not the cancer returned.
Hope you enjoyed your pilates Annie, cannot believe it is only three weeks till Christmas.

Good morning, the storm is still raging, the wind was horrific during the night, I thought the windows would come in. Hope it calms down, we have a performance this afternoon in Read, but at least it is indoors.
Hope you have a good day

[wendy]

good morning,
I managed to sleep ok with the winds because I went into the front bedroom.
I hope everyone is ok and does not have any damage or floods.
I am hoping to go out this morning and then go to Blickling for my lunch.
I think the 123 chatroom is down so that will be why ours is not working.
love
Wendy

Good morning, it is calm and fine,
Had a walk yesterday afternoon with my daughter-in-law Debbie & we saw Grumps & he was keening, it was a terrible noise, it broke my heart, he is obviously pining for Gladys. Never heard anything like it, as mute swans don't make a sound ( hence the name)
Have some shopping to do, sewing , wrapping and hope to fit in aqua-aerobics & library.
Hope you have a good day
Love anniex

[wendy]

I had not heard of the word keening before.
Must have been very sad to hear him.
I hope to do my Christmas cards today and put up some decorations.
love
Wendy

Hello folks - haven't been posting for a week or two. Weather has been horrendous, very wild and cold but thankful that we do not have flooding.

I'm not very organised with Christmas shopping but must get going as time is marching on.
