Good Morning Early Birds!

[waterboatman]

Sunday. The sky is clear this morning. Welcome after yesterdays all day rain, with the odd half an hour or so while it got it's breath back. It was a quick out and back for snowflake. I hope I can take her for a longer walk today. She is fast asleep alongside me now.

Have a happy day everyone.

Morning Boaty, Off too work in a wee while, get some extra pennies for my holidays.

[jennyjoan]

Yes I will ramble on here - the weather was dreadful poor Maxie didn't get out once but after sister leaves tonight I will walk him to a certain spot and back again. It is safe at night as the ladies are coming out of come bingo, smoking their brains off, stressed out they didn't win and all waiting for taxies and plenty of neon lights and lamps.

From the trouble died down a little it is great to see so many people out and enjoying themselves and being free to run the roads etc. Even at night time you have the bright lights of the various takeaways and so it makes for a pleasant evening.

Morning jen xxx Getting all unnecessary I was for a minute. ;o}

Yup, you're the first. Well, someone has to be. :o}

The snowflake is lying alongside me fast asleep. She's quite content.

It clouded over almost as I finished typing. It's clearing again now.

Where abouts are you?

[jennyjoan]

as you enjoyed yourself Tambo - you won't do it in a hurry again LOL

[waterboatman]

morning tam xxx and islay xxx

Spiking a drink is never gunny and always dangerous. i hope you feel better soon tam xxx

islay, what do you do for work and when/where are your holibobs planned for?

I'm nosey and like to know these things

[jennyjoan]

belfast - by the way got those forms for the hospice but when I read them - don't get me wrong jobs were fantastic but it was my mental state as it would saddens me too much and I did watch my mother and fther die in a hospice so many memories - maybe try for another job. I think I may contact Salvation Army and see what they - come to think of it - they have contacted me by email but nothing yet. I am wonder are too in a clique.

[waterboatman]

Sorry to see that jen. I remember Belfast in the troubles. I was there for a while. Also in Armagh I was sorry to see such a beautiful country being ruined by a few that refuse to accept reality.

[waterboatman]

I can understand your feelings jen. The one I attend is not residential. It does a Hospice at Home service for the final days. It works very well.

[jennyjoan]

but it is good now - have been through the troubles and apart from a cuppla shoots in the back of my leg, and nephew son shot dead and mother dying from a broken heart - she died 2 years later leaving 4 sons, 5, 7 13 15. So that was sad. But Hey I have moved on - have had to my lovely.

[waterboatman]

That is sad jen. But you have come through it my lovely.

[jennyjoan]

Amongst others Boaty - many others and of course the knock-on effects of broken homes, many many many suicides.

But hey I am not starting my morning maudlin - so will go and will say have a nice day Boaty and enjoy Snowflake - they are so loving. xxx

[waterboatman]

Always the way of it jen. It's always the innocents that suffer the most.

Have a happy day jen, you're always welcome on here.
