  2. Just putting memories down what Christmas was like when I was young. Well Christmas dinner was at the time Pork, next if you had a few £ to spear you would have a Chicken, then along came the TURKEY!!! Saturday morning it was down to the cattle market with my dad to buy the turkey, then home it came and it was hung on a large hook down in the cellar. Each time I came home from school, it was down the cellar to pluck some feathers out of it. Next step was to take the turkey down to grans, for her to clean it, eg remove inside bits and bobs. Then Christmas day cook slowly

  15. Hi Mrs B we also had a few hic-cups with TSB bank before mum past away, they sent her a credit card for her to use. At the time we were looking after mum she had dementia but she was also 98 years old. I telephoned the bank and explained but they insisted that they would only cancel the card if they could see mum or speak with her, Now my brother and I was given permission to look after her finances, we had both been with mum previous to TSB and she had given her say so. before her illness took over, so I took the phone over to mum and told her just to say cancel my card? Well I think ever

  17. Your right Jill the only thing I will add, is if you can not find one of your drugs that you had say 6 months ago, and require it, and you can not find it, then it's gone into what you call past-drugs. Then you must make a request for it.
  18. Ben 1945 sorry to read your post about your PX but you use the computer for posting on this site, Why? Don't you send for your px on line.? You need to ask for your surgery for the System online Book request register. You have your user name and a password the surgery gives you this password. As soon as this is registerd with your surgery, get your surgery up on line go to on line prescriptions then you can see all your medication that you have, if you see an empty box near your medication s just click in it, then it ask you what chemist you won't to go to so you can pick up or some chemist

When I'm gone after a few days folk will say you know her ? her with the blond hair, you know who i mean, Now what was her name , you know she would rabbit on and on about nothing, Having said that I had set up my place at Lymn's years ago at the time if you pre-booked your funeral they added money vouches who could resist. So people can wear whatever colour cloths they want and all I have chosen are all the songs that I like but the song tell my life story. No reading about your life from someone who has never met you when you were alive. The reason master a
  22. Hi Beekay yes I agree with what you say, maybe its some thing to think about as their must be a lot of children out there who would like a grandad , Just some thing that I remember when my eldest married Nina his wife had lost her father 2 years before, she sat down with my hubby and just said. now, I can adopt you as my new father. Things like this always stick in your mind,
