  • Bl***dy NHS

    Don't get me wrong I am very grateful that we have it but how frustrating it is at times. Stephen is still covered by our private health care. For how long we have no idea. We get copies of the invoices so have some idea of just what the treatment costs.

    Stephen gets no different treatment than anyone else but it is always on…[Read more]

  • OK I am a fine one to talk. Now in my 62nd year I am no spring chicken. My Mother in Law is 85, and I organise a supermarket delivery for her and an order for some frozen meals from a specialist food company (they are a bit like a more up market frozen meals on wheels service.)

    She told me today that she would like to have some more of that Cok…[Read more]

    Please don't feel you should not post how you feel on this site. I could not add anything to Mavis' post She was so eloquent.

    Take care Roz. Love from Gill xxx

  • Hi Everybody and specially you Min,

  • Hi Everyone
    Before Slim had this MM,We went to a few family funerals ,and on the way home,he said promise me if i die you will not go through all that clap trap.
    As you might guess,he has no faith.He tells me because he was an NCO and doing full service,he has a right to be buried at sea.
    When I asked why,His answer was,those b—ers messed me…[Read more]

    I am sure that we have all watched or read about the 10th anniversary of the thousands of deaths that happened on 9/11.

    I was still working then. I worked in a project for homeless people. We took them off the streets and gave them a safe bed, tried to help them into work and the ability to get food and whatever else they needed.

    I watched…[Read more]

  • Nothing whatsoever to do with mm but if you read this before 9.45am please cross your fingers that I don't make a complete idiot of myself.

    I am going back to French classes. Stephen and I both did them for a while and Stephen dropped out fairly quickly (His excuse was South East London Buiilder struggles with English. My reply was, and still…[Read more]

  • Love the idea of "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" at your Dad in Law's funeral Bridget. Stephen wants nothing and the only way I can deal with it is to say "If you went first" He wants his ashes smuggled into France and sprinkled on the little patch of land that we own over the road from our house.

    Come on Min keep posting. We all need…[Read more]

  • Firstly message to Bridget How much "happy juice" had you had before thinking that Terrapin included ARY?:-) 🙂

    Secondly, many of you seem to be cheating asking your other halves 😉

    Pay attention now I could put terrapin as my word as we have been left with ATE, but I will not. I will struggle and come back in a minute.

  • Hi Min
    I was so glad i gave up work, being a nurse there is no way i could ever look after anyone again, i would only need someone to moan that i was late for a visit, and i would sock them one or two!!
