    Morning Louise


    I hope you're ok today.  I've been up a while, looking at your photos on website.  They're really good, everyone is so happy.  How many are in your class?  I bet they were so excited about the easter holidays.  Who is having cuddles and joe during the break?? My great nephew’s class has a teddy that everyone takes in turns to take home with them.  We had him with us 2 years ago for a week when we all went to Barnsdale Lodge in Rutland.  We went swimming most days but the first day we had to take ted with us !!!  I can remember my niece having to take his photo sitting by the pool in his swimming trunks to prove he had come with us, it was quite comical. Happy memories.


    Are you off to the cemetery today, what flowers are you taking?  I bought some freesias again, they smell lovely.  Are you in training for the race for life?  I hope to see you later, we don’t have any plans for today, just relaxing I suppose.  Take care, see you soon, jayne xxx

    Morning Karen


    Sorry I didn’t get back yesterday, my hubby came in and closed all my stuff down without realising I had things still open, then I got doing washing etc.


    I'm glad you got on ok at the docs and hope the tablets help you, did you get any sleep last night?  I don’t blame you for not going to the interview, an hour is a long way to go.  Wow, £2000, I didn’t realise they cost so much.  Will you still go for it?  The home carer job sounds good, and your Mum would be well chuffed at you going for it.  Funnily enough there was an advert in our paper this week for a company called Claimar Care Group, I cut it out to phone them up for some more info.  There were a few jobs I fancied this week, various types.  One of them is for (don’t laugh) a trainee funeral arranger, 20 hrs per week, so I phoned up for an application form. 


    So you're off on hol as well for easter, I think I’ll be on my own here by the look of it.  its good that everyone is getting away, a well deserved break for you all.  I've never been to Norfolk, we had booked to go last year, the last week of June, but I'd already guessed we wouldn’t make it because Mum was coming with us to dorset in april, and she wasn’t well enough for that, so knew that the june hol wouldn’t happen.  I never thought that she would leave us the last week of june though.  She actually said to me while she was in the hospice ‘what a shame, I've spoilt your holiday haven’t I ‘ !!!   how could she even think like that, its beyond me, bless her.


    Anyway Karen, I hope you’ve had a better night and have a good weekend, are you up to anything today?  Take care and hope to speak later, love jayne xxx

    Morning Liz


    How are you today after your scary driving lesson.  I admire anyone who can drive round London, it must be quite a challenge, especially during rush hour.


    I got onto the foxtons site Liz, but not sure which house I'm looking at, could you tell me which page and where abouts it is.  There certainly are some expensive ones aren’t there?  My husband and I sometimes go onto The Bishops Ave site, just to look at how the other half live, amazing prices for amazing houses.  Can you imagine having that much money to be able to live there?  Hope you have a good weekend, speak soon, take care love jayne xxx

    Morning Jayne

    What are you doing up at this time??? It’s Saturday!!!

    It’s a beautiful day here today so I’m away to get organised and go for my walk. I hear Benji padding about downstairs now. He forgets I’m on holiday!

    How’s the back and knee? Getting better I hope. As you’ll have gathered I’m still struggling a bit both physically and emotionally. I really need to get my energy levels back to enable me to cope with life again. I really don’t want to make myself ill again. Hopefully I’ll get back on track again over the hols.

    I’m so pleased about the interview, Jayne. You’d be perfect-such a people person. Is it your own surgery or are you not allowed to do that? I thought if it was you might receive preferential treatment!!

    Apart from the housework that I usually do on a Thursday ( didn’t do it!!) and going to the cemetery I’m not up to much either. Haven’t got flowers yet but I may get the same as you –will they last a while outside?

    You must have been fed up to look at these photos again!! We definitely picked the wrong day to go out. It was freezing and every other day has been beautiful. I have 28 in my class. They are lovely but very confident and chatty. By the way the one you heard was Lawrie (weird names nowadays) and I think his voice was going up all the time as he realised that the “waves” on the screen went up if he did that. I hope you managed to decipherer the accent!! I thought we spoke “proper” English up here!!!

    Hope to see you later, Jayne

    Lots of love
    Louise

    Everyone else- I WILL get back to you today after I’ve got myself sorted. None of you are probably up anyway!!!!

    Morning Marie


    How are you?  You were up late last night weren’t you, did you manage to get off to sleep ok?  I fell asleep from 9 till 10, then watched a woman medium on tv.  She was quite good, I think she's on every Friday on itv 2, so will be having a look next week.  Sorry, I thought you were away this weekend, but realise its next week (don’t know where I am half the time!).  its sounds like you have a bit of a busy week with all the kids and everything.  Never a dull moment ay?  Are you up to anything this weekend.  I'm not sure what the weather is supposed to be like, but we haven’t planned anything interesting, come to think of it, we haven’t planned anything at all. I suppose this coming week you will be getting everything ready for the holiday.  It sounds great, as I said earlier, we love caravan holidays.  When we go, we live like a couple of old hippies, just dossing about.  I know it sounds boring, but we have the same caravan every time we go, its almost on the beach and quite scary when its high tide.  We go again on 21st april for a week, can't wait.  My hubbys started getting his fishing kit together already, hes like a kid.  Hes bought loads of new stuff, reel, rod etc, but I bet he still wont catch anything !!  I'm waffling on about nothing now, so better go.  Have a good day Marie, hope to speak later, take care, love jayne xxx

    Hi again Louise


    As I said, I usually get up early, once I'm awake I just can't lay there.  My back is still hurting and its quite uncomfortable laying down, so better off up.  The knee is ok now I think, thanks for asking.  I'm sorry you're still not feeling so good, and like you say, maybe over the hols you will feel better, I hope so.  It must be really strange to have some quiet time to yourself after being with all those chatty little ones.  It did look cold on the photos.  I knew I'd probably got the name wrong of Lawrie, sorry.  I thought it was funny, I played it back 3 times to listen to him again, bless him.  Kids make me laugh, especially when they don’t know you're listening to them, some of the things they come out with are so funny.


    No, the docs job isn't my own surgery, I'd thought the same as you Louise, I'm not sure they would allow that but it would be great to get preferential treatment wouldn’t it, I could book myself in whenever I wanted to.  Its not far from where I used to work, so only about 10 or 15 mins drive, although it’s the busiest part of this area traffic wise, but I'm looking forward to going.  I haven’t heard from the other one yet, but decided that I couldn’t work there, I didn’t like the feel of the place. 


    I'm not sure about the freesias lasting outside, I've never had any outside before so I can't answer that one, sorry.  I'm glad it’s a lovely day for you to go to take your flowers to Mum and Dad, it looks like the sun is trying its best here, so maybe get the lawn cut later.  My Mum would like that.  My husband cuts the grass here far more than he ever used to at our house.  I think he feels guilty, and that Mum is watching so has to do it for her.  I don’t know if theres any football or rugby on today, but he will be watching it if there is.  He used to watch it with my Mum, they loved it. 


    Thanks for the advice on Lizs house, I'm about to do it now and will be back shortly.  Hope you’ve had a good walk, see you soon.  Jayne xxx
