I like the idea of updating the Oxford Dictionary, Tec. By all means, go ahead a submit a few suggestions.

Don't forget to include Perse's word on the previous page

I love it!

Yes, I'm going, I'm going!! 'bye

I think OH will be fine now, but will keep one eye open tonight, just in case.

What's your weather like?
My cousin arrived in Melbourne last week from UK, she goes to visit her son in Adelaide next week for a while.

Tec

Bye Berona,
It'll be dark by the time you get on the road............
Tec

Bye Perse, Enjoy the shopping, or am I being silly?
Tec

Tec

The weather in Melbourne today is 34c, Adelaide are expecting a heat wave this week, so it will be very hot there, today in Adelaide is 37c..

Carole x

Gosh........She'll melt - was 14c when she left UK,

we're expecting a ground frost here tonight,

That would be a little too hot for me too,

Tec

I agree, Tec... we've had the air con running all night, but unlike you we are use to the heat.
Its the hottest its been for this time of year since 1902, apparently!!!

Carole

Wow......looks like you're in for a hot summer, the weather everywhere is really weird.
We've had so much rain lately, and hailstones yesterday, but then it is going into winter here, and Wales is notoriously wet.

I was in Adelaide in the 70s when they had a State of Emergency because of a freak heatwave, causing the hospitals to fill up.

Well Carole, I'm off to bed now. Hope both your sick lads get better soon.

Bye for now,

Alison, If you look in I hope you had a good night, and feel ok today, thinking of you,

Tec

Me deleting - hit button twice,
Tec

Good night Tec

Sleep well and warm, warmest regards to your Duchess.

Carole xx

Alison...Thinking of you today:-))

Hi Everyone,

I seem to pop on when you're all gone, or I pop on and then need to go to bed and miss everything!

Thank you for your good wishes. Not too bad a night - had to get up and have panadol at 12.30. I want to stay off the harder stuff for as long as possible, as I remember my Mum dying of cancer and being in horrific pain and the nurses telling her it was too soon to have more morphine.

I rang my Oncology nurses today and I get to see the doctor on Thurs at 6.40pm. This is one of the weeks he is here from Brissy. Yaaayyy. I hate going to the big smoke.

I hope everyone's spouses and children are getting better. Tec, I too, am concerned at the frequency of the Duchess' hypos.

On a happier note, the lass who is doing a book on the Campbells, emailed me a photo of my gg grandparents taken not long after they arrived in Aust in 1859. I was terribly excited!!

Do you know that one of the worst things about this stomach cancer bizzo, is that I have lost my appetite. I usually have a country or teenage boy appetite. Not any more alas.

Better go. Good day and Good Night everyone. Thank you for your messages. I get a real tickle out of them *waits for a one-liner from one of the lads*.

'Ooroo

Just popped on to say hi to you all before I go to bed, sorry not been around busy on my X Factor thread,

Tec I know you have gone to bed hun, just wanted to say hope OH is alright now and stay's alright. Take care speak to you soon,

Carolee I hope your OH's knee get's better soon and your son is ok'

Allan was it you on my thread ? and if so why did you delete your post, was it so I didn't know you had been there lol

Hi Persephone sorry I missed you enjoy your shopping trip

Alison if you arrive after I'v gone hope you are well and that the pain's you had earlier are gone hun' sleep well tonight and I hope to catch up with you soon. Stay positive and beautiful hun.

Linda sorry I wasn't around to help you with the boy's sleep well

Well time to go
Goodnight/ goodmorning all

Nuns of course are not as easy to pick as in the old days. They don't even always walk in pairs. But look for ...
Ladies in longish skirts, sensible shoes, off-white blouse of a certain style and often a cardigan. And they usually wear some kind of badge symbolising their order, although this can be hard to identify.

Good Afternoon to Colin and Alison

Alison, Barbra has asked me to pass on her best wishes to you as she has been in the wilds of Lancashire hunting for black puddings for the last couple of days,

Good morning to Diane, and yes it was me on your Thread and yes I deleted....nothing controversial, but as I hadn't a clue what was going on thought that discretion was the better part of valour. I didn't want to post anything that people could take exception to

Regards

Allan

Hi Colin and Allan,

Thanks for the best wishes Barbra. I'm going ok!!

Catch up with you later. Got chores to do.

Tally-ho, off we go!!

Alison,

Shades of Ken Dodd "How tickled I ham" with his big tickling stick :0))

Allan

Tec and Carole

I hope that all is well in your respective households

Tec, Berona is out patrolling the Threads.

Allan

I am not! That's your guilty conscience!

No it's not.

I saw the vapour trail left by your steam mop!!

Allan
