Widowhood.

Go easy on the Vimto, biker. I'm going to put the vodka jellies in the fridge and might do some lollies as well. Roll on Monday!

Looking forward to it*Galen*. I will be arriving on my magic rag rug and can pick up anyone between the Tamar and Tintagel. I must sort out my flowing robes and a few bottles of mead. Can't think of any mediaeval nibbles so maybe Twiglets will do.

Hiya Rubysong

I'll be waiting on the Severn Bridge but if it's too windy for a pick up I'll be in the Services Car Park. I'll be in the one in the medieval get-up and M&S jacket in case it's chilly.

Do you have a cloak of invisibility device in case the police take exception to the magic rug.

Falcon nooo....your coming with me ! your sitting in between the hay bales and balancing the round table on your head! I've blown the "whooopeee" cushion up for you to sit on you can travel back with Rubysong or we could travel in convoy (not sure that her carpet driving skills like) hope she doesn't read this we may be better if we keep clear(especially if she has already started on the "vodka jellies" I have heard the od rumour!

Just checking AA route for Seventh Bridge, Hope your not bungee jumping before we get there Falcon I've told you about "hanging" around

Oh dear, never been so popular. I don't know who to chose. I won't be bungy jumping off the Severn Bridge that's for sure. It's one scary bridge. Now I come to think of it there are two of them, one scary and one sensible. So whoever I chose for transport - I'll be waiting at the sensible one.

Are you giving anyone else a lift Biker? You would need a side car - now there's an idea, you could put the round table in there.

Falcon I have come up with idea,you could travel with Ruby as she may be on her own Unless she is picking up others, I could travel behind in case you fall off! yes the sidecar is already fixed, Iv'e had it painted in camouflage colours so as to blend in if I took the back country roads,Ruby and yourself can hover above me and guide me along the way lead me astray more like it! not sure if anyone else is jumping aboard as I think I am carrying supplies, so you can put your handbag and essentials in the side car.ok bfn off to wash up, the washing up fairy hasn't been again!

Brilliant Biker we could form a convey down those lovely country lanes. All the locals will becoming out to watch

For me it's the dusting fairy, I never see her. I'm thinking of giving her the sack and doing it myself.

Right, I'm going to open the thread

slapping thighs with "Excitement" and trepidation good gal Galen ........>>>>>>>> walks runs off to find thread!

Hope I can join in. My lap top has chosen just the wrong time to go dodgy.

oh nooooo....Falcon give it a tap, turn it upside down, blow on! anything! ! we need you at the party with Rick Wakeman!

Phew!!!!!!! found my broomstick. I thought for a while there that I would miss the rave up party. So looking forward to vodka jellies. (I've never tried them before). Hope you're going to be a bad influence on me biker.

Back again, temporary glich on the old laptop.

oh nannieroz I will be , I will be.. just stick by me..you will be influenced badly... Vodka Jeliies are deeeeelicious very alcoholic

Falcon great stuff, now then! bed early tomorrow..... hope nannieroz won't be staying up till the late hours watching them! films again

Phewwww....thought I would pop in here for a bit of sanctuary, peace and quiet ............. ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.........

Hi Biker,

Same here - just discovered damp in my ensuite. I was so fed up because it's a relatively new flat. cazthebook work just cheered me up on the "tips for getting old" thread. She said life is 10% what happens and 90% how you deal with it - so I've got a damp treatment bloke coming this week.

You doing OK Biker??

oh heck Falcon it could be something simple like guttering etc, I'm presuming he will try and find the source of the damp at the same time.

Gosh it's boring getting back to reality it's absolutely pelting down here and I wanted to get out today grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.........

Time for another and a think !

Hi GNetters....... I've had a rather busy morning, but just popped in to say how much I enjoyed last nights party. Honestly, I laughed out loud several times. Trust everyone has recovered. (and don't ask what Randolph and I were doing in the bushes!)

Hello nannier I'm surprised to see you up and about so early! after last night

Oh! and by the way! I happen to spot "Randolph" with one of his legs caught on a branch, very near the bushes that were rustling last night cough! I ran over to him , but!! a sudden burst of howling wind came from no where..........it must have caught him by surprise, before I could reach him! he was off! twirling around like a deflating balloon...my last sighting of him was over the turrets at Tintergel castle heading towards the coast! (mind you I cant' say I'm sad, he never uttered a word, just sat there staring at the tv all night) ahh well, plenty more "Randolphs" on the beach

Just thought I would give this thread a nudge as I know that it is coming up to anniversary time for many of you (me included)

I myself just cannot believe it will be 12 months in around 2 weeks time since my dh left this world, and I will never ever forget the messages from so many GNetters, all the lovely people I will never meet (maybe some I may l have chance to meet in time)

Things for me have remained at standstill, although that will be changing soon. (watch this space)!

to all you widows new or old... keep strong

It was great having "a virtual party again" and joining in...carry on the good work

Still trying to get used to this new life that none of us chose......but thanks to GN and some special GN's (you know who you are!!!!!) I manage to get through most days.

think I need to take my tablets! I have just opened the fridge to get the butter out and found the "sellotape" in there !

That's one of the things I find hard about being a widow - I can't blame anyone else.

The crumbs on the worktop were left there by me.

I left the tap running all night in the bathroom (my gas bill!!)

I left the jar of marmalade with the top off and it must have been me who accidentally threw away my favourite purple top.

I thought it was getting easier, but today I'm not sure!
