Baubles We have missed your company in the kitchen. Just as soon as you've had time to catch up with umpteen jobs, we hope that you will pop in again and stay for a blether. flowers

Agus You mean to say that you have two fit posties...you are a lucky girl. wink

Now then, pay attention please...which of the kitcheners can recommend one of those new-fangled phone things that can also be used as a camera? All we need is something VERY straight forward with the ability to send and receive messages and take good quality pics that can be uploaded on our computer. All the additional fancy-apps stuff isn't what we require. Please may I have your intelligent input...grin

Off to make coffee. Back a little later. Thinking caps on if you please.

Agus Thu 28-Aug-14 11:56:54

Welcome back baubles. Looking forward to hearing about your trip smile

Granny23 Thu 28-Aug-14 11:22:07

Welcome back Baubles - You have been missed smile

Marelli Wed 27-Aug-14 19:09:23

Lovely to have you back with us, baubles. smile

Nonu Wed 27-Aug-14 19:05:29

Welcome home BAUBLES, when you are rested , perhaps tomorrow tell us of your trip.
smile

Good to have you back baubles.

baubles Wed 27-Aug-14 18:19:56

We are home - thirteen weeks to the day we left.

It's been fabulous but I've missed so much of what's been going on in your lives. Lots to do now what with the car to unpack & pets to be collected. I will try to catch up over the next couple of days.

It's good to be back in the kitchen.

Agus Wed 27-Aug-14 16:33:44

Another month of this would be lovely soop but I doubt very much that will be the case. One bonus for me is, our two, very fit posties are still running around in their grey shorts and red polo shirts uniform. Oooo, very nice grin

DH is talking about getting an excercise bike to use as part of his cardio gym routine whenever he gets the go ahead he is well enough to use one. Listening to favourite pieces of music might even get me into using it! wink

Welcome home dear anno You have been on a marvellous adventure. All those memories to savour. It really is a treat to have you back.

Agus hasn't our weather been the tops over the last few days. Although the sky isn't cloudless we do have a very sunny day to enjoy to the full.

I've been sorting through my personal favourite music and have put Haydn String Quartets The Lindsays to one side. Their rendition is so spirited. As I pedal away (a little later) I shall do so to Opus 76 Nos 4, 5 & 6 grin

Agus Tue 26-Aug-14 22:59:29

Anno sent the sunshine up to Scotland sunshine grin

Good to have you back Anno and pleased to hear you had a good holiday. Provence and The Ardèche are beautiful areas of France.

Very impressed with your microlight flight, the views must have been stunning.

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 20:37:58

And sprinkles?

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 20:37:41

With marshmallows?

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 20:37:22

Pretty please?

rosequartz Tue 26-Aug-14 19:50:44

anno did you pack any sunshine in your suitcase, if so please can you let it out?

Lona Tue 26-Aug-14 19:14:50

Anno You're back with us of course! What more could you ask? smile

annodomini Tue 26-Aug-14 19:04:15

I am back on British soil, tho not home till Saturday, and have just been scrolling back over the thread for news of MacS as well as Bellasnana' s OH. I was so sorry to hear about the extra pressure on MacS and you, soop. You've had such a trying summer and now I do hope that things will soon be clarified and look brighter. Bellasnana, I hope the mouth ulcers have cleared up. They make eating and drinking so miserable.
I got back from the family caravan holiday in France on Sunday. We had a great time in Provence and the Ardèche. Contrary to rather gloomy expectations the weather was glorious and as a consequence I'm browner than usual. As I couldn't go canoeing or canyoning with the family they treated me to a microlight flight over the Ardèche gorge. Not a bit scary and very spectacular. A bit of an anticlimax to be back here in such gloomy weather, but there must be some compensations: I'll let you know when I think of any!

Galen flowers

I'm away to ride the exercise bike. As I do so, I shall listen to Placido Domingo and look out over the deep blue sea...smile

janeainsworth Tue 26-Aug-14 15:25:50

No, normal for mothers I think Galen.

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 14:59:49

JaneA thank god I'm not the only one.
I thought it was just me being silly, selfish and mawkish.

soop Tue 26-Aug-14 14:45:51

Hello you lovely lot it is a glorious day in bonnie Kintyre, 'though nowhere near as hot as it is in Bella's part of the world. It is good to hear that your husband is beginning to feel a little better. You've every good reason to partake in a glass of delicious wine

Have returned from a morning ironing a big basket-full of laundry. My left shoulder is still sore (trapped nerve) and, although I'm right-handed, I only just managed to finish on the stroke of one o'clock.

Charleygirl is right to point out that Rory has freshly roasted chicken. The minute it is out of the oven MacS cuts off a portion for him. It is then left to cool for a few minutes...during which time Rory protests like a banshee.

janeainsworth Tue 26-Aug-14 13:41:57

I meant about the weepiness not the dinosaurs!

janeainsworth Tue 26-Aug-14 13:41:36

I know the feeling Galen hmm

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 12:34:28

Probably. Yet I find it exhausting watching dinosaur train 15 times?

Charleygirl Tue 26-Aug-14 11:12:56

Galen because you love them

Galen Tue 26-Aug-14 10:42:05

Darling daughter and DGDs have just left after a two night stay.
Why do I always feel weepy when ther go?
