Over 50's Club Scotland (Part 1)

Good afternoon everybody cold and grey here today.May sorry to hear your still suffering with your knee. Been out and had my hair done and now going out for some shopping.

Another miserable day here but at least itā€™s not raining . Got an invite out to coffee today which was nice . Went my favourite Ardwell pond walk . Always cheeers me up .

Put up my Christmas tree and will up up the rest of the decorations tomorrow . I like them up early and down early .

Had a lovely homemade lasagne for tea along with some garlic bread .
No vampires will be here tonight Iā€™d say . :lol:

Sorry to hear your knee is so sore May . Are you going to the Doctor , sounds like you need to asap .

Sounds like You had a lovely day Abbey,good for You putting the decsā€™ up so soon,think Iā€™ll wait 'til Iā€™m more like Myself first.

I know the spiel if I go to the Docā€™sā€¦Make an appā€™ at Hospā€™ for x ray to confirm itā€™s arthritis,(as if I didnā€™t know) Theyā€™ll recommend another knee replacementā€¦Iā€™ll tell Them to shove it.:surprised:ā€¦then Iā€™ll be offered stronger pain killers like Tramadolā€¦which turns Me into a nut-job (well a bigger one than I am already)ā€¦hey ho. exciting aint it?..In the meantime I can bend the knee a little bit nowā€¦so never say dieā€¦if it runs true to form Iā€™ll be out n about by the weekendā€¦have a great Evening Allā€¦Iā€™m off for an early night,x :wink:

Itā€™s all gone very quiet on here today. Ok, who said what ??:slight_smile: I hope the knee continues to improve May, and you can get out this weekend. Iā€™ve been working on the vehicle outside today. Itā€™s ā€¦erā€¦ cool and refreshing to say the least!! Mostly grey with no hint of sun. :frowning: Letā€™s hope the weekendā€™s better. The bothy beckonsā€¦

Andrewā€™s Day under the Southern Cross)

GOD bless our land, our Scotland,
Grey glen anā€™ misty brae,
The blue heights oā€™ the Coolins,
The green haughs yont the Spey,
The weary wastes on Solway,
Snell winds blaw owre them aā€™ ā€”
But aye itā€™s Hame, lad,
Yours anā€™ mine, lad,
Shielinā€™ or haā€™.

     It's Hame, it's Hame for ever,
         Let good or ill betide!
     The croon o' some dear river,
         The blink o' ae braeside.

God bless our land; itā€™s yonder ā€“
Far in the cold North Sea:
But ā€˜neath the old Saintā€™s glamour
Itā€™s calling you anā€™ me:

     It's Hame, it's Hame for ever,
         Let shore or sea divide!
     The croon o' some dear river,
         The blink o' ae braeside.

God bless our land. We dream oā€™t ā€”
The days aye brakinā€™ fine
On the lang, lane glints oā€™ heather
In the glens we kent langsyne.

Ay, we are Reubens, rovers,
ā€˜Neath mony an alien star,
But flaunt the blue flag oā€™er us,
Pipe up the " Braes oā€™ Mar,"
And steppe and nullah vanish,
And pomp and pelf and fame ā€”
Itā€™s gloaminā€™ ā€” on a lown hillside,
Anā€™ lads, . . . Weā€™re . . . Hame.

Happy St Andrews Day to All on the Scottish Forum,xxx

Good Morning Folks. A bit grey here (again) but a hint of it brightening up. A few odd jobs to do and general pottering today. Having to wait in for delivery. Just watched the 2nd episode of ā€œThe Last Minerā€ on BBC iplayer. A sad and moving programme. Closure of the very last pit in the UK. Something we will come to regret for sure ! :frowning: Even if you are not ā€œintoā€ mining or underground stuff, itā€™s well worth seeing.

Enjoy your day everyone.:slight_smile:

Mike.

Thanks Myrtle. May never heard of that poem before. Mike hope you donā€™t have to wait to long for the delivery. I watched a bit of that programme it is sad all those men losing their jobs.

Enjoy your day folks, especially as its a bank holiday now.

Hi everyone . Had a busy day today . Food shopping and other shopping . Put it all away and went my favourite Ardwell pond walk . It was lovely there , the ground is nice and dry and the leaves were all rustling as I walked along .

Wished my family a Happy St Andrews day . Iā€™m the only one in Scotland at the moment .

Hope you all had a good day . :smiley:

Good Morning Each,just pottering around finishing present wrapping hoping to get to PO Tomorrow to send Parcel to Daughter in Kent as She and Her Man are off to Rome next week for some R&R before the Brood come Home from Uni for the holidaysā€¦Have a good Day Folks,x

Good morning :slight_smile:

Met my niece today and she picked out clothes for her little boy and her nephew. Thatā€™s me almost finished except for a few gifts for familyā€¦

Morning All. Fog here this morning but it should burn off soon (hopefully). You all sound very organised with your present buying and wrapping. Every year is the same for me - an 11th hour job !!!
