Well, I’m still here !
Posted 3 days in the trot about a week back, nobody bothered to answer so I stopped.
This used to be a busy thread up till a couple of years ago when folk either left the forum or got fed up posting.
Oh I could hug you … I was getting lonely. 
Och the noo ! As is happens I have had been having radio therapy - seven weeks of it.

Hi
Apologies Rox I have not been great myself.
I do talk from time to time with my great niece, aged 4 and nearly a half.
The nearly a half is very important to her.
She loves horses and wants a pony and I made the mistake of telling her about you and your Clydesdales.
The even bigger mistake was showing her a photo of a pair of Clydesdales.
She is now determined to get a pair and is giving her Parents serious grief about not getting her a pair.
They live in a 3 bed detached near the middle of Coventry. 
Hi Swims I wasn’t referring to yourself and the visitors to here, When I first started coming to this thread years ago it was on the old original forum that we all liked, it was full of Scots who used to post every day about all sorts of things. Gradually it emptied especially after the site changed to what we now use, I still find it awkward to do some things, other’s gave up altogether.
As for the Clydes, they are very expensive to own, my OH sometimes says he should just sit in the corner and tear up £20 notes, especially after the Vets been for whatever reason.

Hi
That’s fine Rox, the Scottish thread is one that I really enjoy reading.
As for the Clydesdales, the littlies Mum is a high flying Solicitor, very annoying at times and gives my Sister, who I love to death, a lot of grief, she feels she is very entitled to not turn up on time and does not even consider giving Sis any money for looking after and feeding her daughter.
Annoying her is just something I feel justified to do as my sister is far too nice.
Well now, she sounds a right entitled so n so. Personally I detest people who act like that and I would be setting a load of boundaries and rules for herself. Now you may fall out with me for saying that but I’m speaking from experience. I had a bad time with one of my sisters who got a hell of a shock when I called time on her and her way of treating me. It was my friend who made me see sense, one day after she saw how things were. She gave me some straight talking and that gave me the guts to stop it.
Hi Rox,
Absolutely no reason at all to fall out with you.
You make perfect sense .
Not everyone’s personal circumstances are the same and Sis is having to concentrate on other more personal matters at the moment.
That’s true and I hope it all works out.

Good afternoon People…Just opened laptop to do My online grocery order and saw that I’ve not been online for almost 2 weeks…how time flies when I’m off My backside busy doing stuff at Home
The weather is much the same as it always is in Winter here,rain,cold,sleet,snow,ice,frost…rain rain and more rain 
Had a quick look at the other forum I used to post on…Jeeze!
bickering/goading/sarcasm/Name calling…some nasty stuff being posted there…disgraceful really for Folk who are mainly in Their 70s/80s 
Well that’s all for now Folks…take care and I’ll see Ye A’ later,xx
Been out this morning, jogging around the town. Gawd it’s so miserable this year … grey skies, drizzly rain and dank and dull.
I’m now dunking biccies wondering whether to run around with the hoover. It’s not grabbing me … but needs must. Time to be a domestic diva.

Afternoon, we’re not long back from the Leisure Centre, we were both grumpy and on edge, I blame this weather and no sun…I need the sun. Anyway we decided some time relaxing in the Steamroom and then the Jacuzzi was in order so that’s what we did. And we both feel better for it. Then went over to the Ocean Front Cafe for a Latte, out for dinner tonight in Scrabster then the local for a while.
Enjoy your Weekend Folks.

Good afternoon Folks…I won’t mention the weather 
I spent the day yesterday in My Daughters house,Son was upset as He’d just been told one of His best Friends had just died,also one of Daughters Schoofriends and SILs Friend had passed away too in the last few weeks…so very sad as They were all just in Their early 60s…Made Us realise just how fragile Life can be.
See Ye A’ later,xx
Afternoon All, Weather is dry that’s all I’m going to say. 
Stuck in waiting on the plumber coming to sort the shower, something has happened to the temperature control, you either fry or freeze, there’s no in between, blooming annoying and useless at the moment. I wish the guy would get a move on, starting to growl with frustration, I hate waiting on workmen.
I know the feeling … workmen … don’t offer him any biccies with his cuppa Rox.
Quiet day for me. Weather is … horrid.
Morning, Rain and more rain AGAIN 
no pool today slept in THEN, when I opened the door on the washing machine a flood of water came pouring out 
took ages to clean up. I put the machine on spin and it worked but I suppose I’ll have to start looking for a new one, the Beco I have now is around 15 years old so I shouldn’t moan, but gggggrrrrrrr
It’s going to be one of those blooming days.
Oh well, we could play snooker instead…!

Just think … in just over 6 weeks we do the clocks, 
I know it’s ages away but I can’t wait.
