  1. I don't get to see my sisters much these days, but whenever we are together walking, we would always link arms, or walk with an arm round each other, and sometimes even hold hands. We would kiss on meeting and departing, and we love each other. I'm not stopping it now, but I know what it might look like to people who don't know us. Mind you we all look alike, so perhaps you can tell we are sisters.
  2. Right LL. How did you guess? We are back home now, on the way for 6.30am, home by 9.15am, just one stop for a sandwich. Not one cream cake has passed my lips today.........but there is time.
  3. I don't know what BP is like at the end of the day because we are usually done in and flopped in our comfy chairs, feet up, tucking in to our fuddles by then. The main area has such a lot of entertainment and lots of people go there just for that, as we have done ourselves in the past, but we are out too much in the day to face the nightlife anymore. During the day just out of season it is great, so much improvement has been carried out over the last few years. The Prom is so clean, the sand is so clean and even the sea looks clean. The view for as far as you can see each way is pure golden s
  4. Glad you had a good time at Blackpool catfan. We are still here at Lytham St Annes until tomorrow. We have had a really great two weeks, a very quiet holiday, just what we needed. Fabulous sunshine every day until today, and it has rained most of the day, but that is not a problem, it makes it easier to accept the holiday is over. We like to have the two weeks running up to the bank holiday every year, everything is up and running but not too hectic. We were probably out on the cycles the day you went to St Annes, we cycled every day. Definitely need to go home now for a rest.
  5. Had another smashing day here in Lytham St Annes. The weather couldn't be better, but today we have been like two 70odd year olds instead of youngs. We have cycled 113miles over the last 8 days, not a lot to some people, but to us rather plump, foodies, it has taken its toll. No cycling today, we decided to take it easy, wish we could say the same about the munching. The weather looks good for tomorrow, so we will probably be out early in the morning, I feel a 20miler coming on.
  6. She aint far away miduck. Livin' it up at the seaside. Never like to miss a sing song . Ok Choir, let us begin Goodness Gracious How Flirtatious........It is Me...........It is You......Ah I am sorry.............IT IS BOTH...........AAAAH.. Applause for the NS Choir.
  7. You'll be alright catfan. . I hope you get some sunshine.
  8. To you all who are not fans of Blackpool, believe it or not I am with you. I wouldn't stay a night in Blackpool if it was offered free. I can't take the noise anymore! In years gone by we have had some great times, lots of laughs and happy memories made there, but that was when we wanted the nightlife. Shows, Dancing, Singing, Laughing, and meeting people. These days all we want is the quiet life. I can't drink Alcohol anymore because of health issues and medication, so late nights out don't hold much interest for us anymore.now, I realise that most people under the influence of too much boo
  9. Bostin' bit of sunshine here in Lytham St Annes. Shorts weather as hubbs puts it. Just off for a car ride now to Freeport shopping outlets at Fleetwood. I feel a serious spend coming on at the Sketchers outlet, then a little rest for an hour before it's cycles out for our daily peddle to Blackpool. We can only stand the Razzmatazz for about an hour, so we don't stay long. Just long enough for an Icecream. Must fly.......fun to be had.
  10. Thank you nonna, I have just listened to it twice.....I have been sent by her lovely rendition. I still love the sound after all these years. No Noyleh Tar....Bellissimo.
  11. Tricked Yer. Wondered if anyone would notice. Honestly.
  12. I really loved that song. I learnt to speak 'Proper French ', Gedling style of course from listening very carefully. All together now.......No Noyleh Tar? Dunt sound right does it. Only jesting. As with so many songs with foreign lyrics, I found a way of singing along. Elvis Presley singing Wooden Heart was another one, ....... Lucy Den Lucy Den, Oowoo Shtate a lady now, Shtate a lady now, Ooh Doo my stut bline stin. I learnt 'Proper Gedling German' from that one. Don't get me started on Charles Aznavour, Swoon. Anyway, we are here in sunny L
  13. I managed to get this screen print today, as you can see there is now only two eggs left. Sadly I have just read on the NTU Falcon website that they expect there to be no chance of chicks this year. So sadly this is probably my last picture this year.........But you never know, miracles can happen.
  14. Wee'd live the life we choose Wee'd fight and never lose For wee were young and sure to have our way. Laaaa la la la lala...................
  15. Not really predictive texting CliffTon, just me typing too quickly for my grey cells to keep up with! I meant You Tube. Hers a boster, or Hers bostin, in Black Country talk translated to Nottinghamese means, She int arf loveleh.
  16. Just checked her out on U Tube benj. Hers a boster.
  17. We picked our son and partner up at 8.30am this morning and headed for Chasewater, which is a very short drive from home. When we got there just after 9.15am it wasn't too busy and already very warm. The youngies walked around the lake while us oldies sampled the delights of the cafe in the disused railway station. A very nice destination for anyone looking for a day out. All the usual attraction plus speed boat rides, chuffa train rides,cycle hire?, small fair rides plus areas for food and icecream. A lovely couple of hours spent there. From there it got very busy everywhere. We
  18. I'm missin' ya, ooh missed kissin' ya. Haha, already watched Eastenders. One eye on NS and one eye on Casuality catch up at the moment.
  19. We never saw the first series, so I look forward one day to catching up on it. We used to go to Butlins quite a lot in the 70/80s and some of the episodes of BD really remind me of those crazy days and nights. We met a few people on those holidays that could have fit in with the BD cast easily. You can always give the real Benedorm a whirl benj, pretty sure you would soon have a few tales to tell.
  20. I love Benidorm. Did you say it's the last one tomorrow night. Shame, I love daft, and you can't get much dafter than BD. My favourite characters are, Kenneth, Joyce Temple Savage, (The late Donald) and Jacqueline, Geoff Maltby, played by Johnny Vegas and my all time favourite is his mum Noreen Maltby played by the lovely Elsie Kelly, but in reality I think most of them are great.
  21. We had in the past three Irish Red Setters. The one died at about eighteen months with Gastro Enteritis?, The vet did an autopsy, he suspected some kind of poisoning. Long story, so I will leave it there. That one really broke my heart.The other two lived full happy lives, though not particularly long ones. the one had various illnesses through her life and eventually succumbed to one of them at 11 yrs. The really sad ending was that the other one must have been so sad that she went into a coma and died ten days later. We couldn't take the heart ache again so never had anymore.
  22. The first saying I remember well and would never mix those colours because of it. BUT. I like the idea best that Gem recalled. I have a plain light weight round necked emerald green jumper, and an azure blue silk scarf with pink roses, flashes of cream and green leaves that compliment the jumper. As I have got older, things like this don't bother me at all and I wouldn't be a slave to someone elses colour matches anymore. I wore these colours for my birthday yesterday and thought they looked lovely together.
  23. Yes nonnaB, it has happened to some of my pictures on the Falcon thread, just as you described, a code and small square though the photo that I added yesterday seems ok so far.
  24. I posted a picture onto the 'Nottingham Falcons' thread earlier today and there was no sign of a warning message. I have just clicked into 'Postimage' again to check and there is no message again. I feel concerned about this. Does anyone have any information on how to check the safety of 'Postimage' and have I compromised my Laptop by adding a picture earlier?
  25. Thank you for your reply NBL. I know I'm not the only one it has happened to now.
