Hello BUZZ! I will say this about MFP, I've lost about 6lb since February just by following their calorie guidelines. Haven't felt hungry either! Great news from the Korean Peninsula IF it's true. Finally civilized behaviour and common sense! And more importantly HOPE for this beautiful planet we call home! Now, if we can…

No prob. LIN. I figured that you'd not seen the post. Makes you wonder about the delays. Censoring? Just checked and I missed BUZZ as well! I've just read her post! And she didn't see me either yesterday. Are our days numbered! Anne.

Morning girls. Yes we are all installed LIN. See post just above yours! I'm not sure what's going on with the community page of MFP. I simply have a great deal of trouble getting on it these days. Since the hacking problem anyway. I'll finally get through and it will flick back to the MFP logo screen. This makes me nervous…

Hello everyone. I simply couldn't get on the site this morning. It kept returning to the icons at the opening. Well, I've got a new water heater and gushing hot water out of the bath tap. It turns out the old water heater was 21 years old. I remember it being put in, but THAT long ago! I gather 21 years is very old for a…

BON VOYAGE JACKIE. HAVE A WONDERFUL BREAK. NOW - NO WORRYING ABOUT GEORGE, THE KITTIES AND THE CHICKS. "See" you soon. Anne.

No change.

We need a new water heater. Will be installed on Wednesday. Meanwhile we appear to have a critter inside the walls. Scratching and bumps. Harry removed a lot of his junk and some little creatures home??? There's always something isn't there with home ownership. Mark will investigate further on Wednesday. Anne.

Up at six am waiting for the water heater installers to arrive at seven! Had my trickle water bath though because you never know! I've beaten Jilly to it. She's still snoozing! No problem with spell check BUZZ, in fact they often don't agree with my olde English or English slang and I have to over ride them the same as…

Beautiful JACKIE! I'm so glad you gave the greengage another chance. I find my apple trees have a bumper year, and then they rest the next year. Alas the one in the back has to come down but I will replace it with a young tree further down the garden. Mike was over all morning and stayed for lunch so Jilly is all walked…

You certainly have had your share of adventures JACKIE! I'm keeping off MFP today, it had the collywobbles earlier, and it is still a bit wobbly. Just to say beautiful morning here! Anne.

And my almost non existent hot water is to be fixed on Monday between 7 and 11. 7!!!!!!!!. People do repairs at 7am !!!!!!!! I'm feeling a bit smug. I told Mark I thought it was the old water heater and the plumber says it is. So a new furnace last winter, a new washing machine and now a new water heater. How about a nice…

Out in the garden clearing the winter debris, then we sat in the sun without my jacket. Had to come inside.....too hot! What a change from last saturdays ice storm. Anne.

Just a thought, but maybe we are wired to be attracted to other cultures. Prevents in breeding as it were. Now if my grandson ends up with his oriental girlfriend any children will have Chinese, Portuguese, Scottish, English and maybe way back French genes. Not much chance of inbreeding there. I think we also have all…

American girl!

Probably BUZZ, lol. Seriously though, lots of problems yesterday on the site. Hopefully the staff have the weekend off so no more tampering until Monday. Anne.

The May sayings? Of course LIN. Anne.

I've seen St Michael's mount LIN. Great excitement here. I could hear a lot of noise outside last night and Jilly did a lot of barking. Two people have told me today that two foxes where circling my front garden apple tree last night trying to get at a cat that was clinging to the branches. People came out and tried to…

Just had a big hug from Darren across the street. He flies out to the u.k. today. 25 deg in Cambridge yesterday Jackie.

My poor neighbour came into my house looking listless and so much older than her 65 years, but she left looking much happier JACKIE. A belly laugh is the best cure of all. Her husband had showed violence the first time ever and I've asked her to leave rapidly and come over here to phone her sons if he starts chucking…

May blossom

Barge pole

Quotes. Well there's that poem:- "Call me early mother dear, for I'm to be queen of the May." Or:- " April showers bring May flowers." Or:- "The darling buds of May." Yes, I can remember skipping around a maypole and making a mess of the silk ribbon pattern, thus no longer being allowed to skip around a maypole! You had to…

Love the sayings JACKIE, especially the violet one. So very true! Anne.

It was so dark this morning, we've only just got up! Really late for me! What was that saying JACKIE! KISSING IS OUT OF FAVOUR WHEN THE GORSE IS OUT OF BLOOM. Meaning there's always a wee flower somewhere on the gorse bush, but they really outdo themselves in the spring! Well, I've reinstated the professional grass mowers…

My grandson has not only moved into an apartment in the city near his work, he's also acquired a little friend. Please welcome baby Hobbes to our little family of super pets. Anne.

Car park

Home sweet home JACKIE, put the kettle on. Exodus of us poor northerners imminent, lol. Hey, you never know, maybe we could buy a communal place, especially if SANDY wins big! I'm British of course but every one else could claim immunity from a certain old man! Lol. In the end though I fancy Norfolk when my dads family…

Loved the video JACKIE, and our George on his perch. If I get a new lease of life in the old country, I will most definitely get me a Clara Cluck. Anne. Its now plus 3 and we've just had a crunchy but pleasant walk.

That's what has worried me from the beginning of your country's latest four year reign, BUZZ. The makings of a dictator. Everyone poo poos such a thought but no one expected a ridiculous looking little corporal with a moustache to manage it with gullible people after an earlier depression in the thirties! Heartbreaking…

Oh LIN. So sorry. Have you thought of selling up and maybe renting like SANDY in a decent building and area. Are any of your friends in apartment buildings they would recommend? At least you wouldn't have to worry about repairs, lawn mowing, snow clearing etc (my future problem). However I think if I loved and wanted to…
