    Hi again Louise,  I looked on the just giving website and the Walk Wonders bit reads like its if youre holding your own walk with family or friends.  The one we're doing is an organised one on 13th May, so i'm not sure if i can still set a page up as they sent us sponsorship forms through the post, i dont know.  I'll have another look and see what other people are doing, or maybe i'll ask someone from macmillan.  Thanks for the info.

    I read your post on the remembrance thread, its lovely.  I love your poem to your mum, it says it all. 

    I will be back later, (ironing something decent for interview) !  Hope to see you back later.  jayne xxx

    Did you register for your walk through Macmillan Home Page Heading- Help us raise money? I saw your walk there and there is a number- zero eight four five six zero two one four nine zero. Perhaps they could help you. I had to phone about my Race for Life one as it wouldn’t let me register.

    Hope your “interview suit” is ironed. What time is it at?

    Hello Jayne and Louise.Hope youre both enjoying the lovely sunshine.Louise- i just read your rememberance post.Its really lovely.Talking about sponsorship,i saw your page on the Race For Life and wondered if you would mind if i did post a donation on there?? I do give to cancer charities and it would be nice to do a donation through you if i can work out how to do it! I imagine its fairly simple?? i just log on and give my card details?? I'm sure that it is a secure site. Likewise-if you get anything sorted Jayne,i will  sponsor you also. Catch you both later.Marie XXXX

    Hi Marie

    Sorry we left you all lonely last night. I bought The Queen DVD ( such is my exciting social life just now!!) and fell asleep half way through it. I crawled to bed at about eleven and of course was wide-awake by about three. Must try the banana tonight as I forgot last night.

    Are you having a quiet day today or do your boys have football etc on a Sunday?
    I think I may head for the garden later and start tidying a bit. It’s a lovely day but still quite chilly here.

    My message of remembrance went a bit wrong and I was going to put it beside yours. However I can’t get rid of the title so I’d better leave it. I put that poem ( not very good at poetry) on here ages ago and never really thought much about it but it was really hard for me to do that this time –strange!!

    You are very welcome to sponsor me if you like, Marie and yes it’s simple. I know it’s for a very good cause but I felt that people were so generous last year that I didn’t like to annoy them again. I’m going to put in a donation myself this time.You’ll notice I’m trying hard to get Jayne a sponsor page up and running too so I can sponsor her!!! Poor soul, it will be quite a challenge with a bad back and knee.

    I’m off to try and eat some lunch now (not very keen on cooking/eating just now).
    Enjoy your day
    Louise

    Hi Louise-thanks for your reply.i will log on to the race for life site and post my donation later on.

    No,boys don't do sunday football thank goodness!!! I have got to spend the day tidying up round here-its a nightmare at the moment!!

    Eldest is on a sports and nutrition course for 4 days this week coming,so that gets him out of my hair for a bit anyway! My youngest is good at amusing himself and will sit and read,or do some colouring or just play with his toys,so i have been left with the easiest one of the two!

    Do you mean a dvd about the Queen? The film that is out?? No wonder you fell asleep!!!! I like the royal family,but couldn't sit and watch anything like that.Queen the rock group-now then you'd be talking!!!! I can listen to them for ages!

    Have a nice time in the garden,but don't work too hard will you.I'm off to strip the beds,and then put piles and piles of washing away!!! I hate doing it,which is why i leave it until there's so much needs putting away that theres no clothes left in the wardrobes!!!! Then i REALLY don't want to do it because theres so much to deal with!!! Hubby is at footy meeting,and when he comes back i shall be sending him down local tip with loads of cardboard and bottles.He hates doing that as well,So he's not going to be best pleased!!!!! Might catch you on here this evening.Have a good day.XXXXX

    Hi Louise


    No, I got the number from this site, then phoned up our local office in Northampton.  Thanks for the number, I will give it a ring tomorrow and ask them.  It would be good to set up a page, and thanks for offering to sponsor me.  I'm only doing the 3 mile walk, I'm not a fit person, but am looking forward to it, Althorp House is a lovely place inside, but I've never been round the grounds.  Hubby is doing it with me, and we’ll take the camera (we take it everywhere).  Thank you for all your help, you're great.  Xx


    I haven’t done any ironing, I looked through the wardrobe and tried 3 different tops on, but have decided to go for just a plain grey short sleeved Tshirt, it looks nice under the suit, not too fussy and didn’t need ironing, so got away with that one!  One of my earings broke last night, I never take them off, just plain gold small hoops, so I've just been through mums jewellery box to find something plain, found some, and will be wearing them tomorrow, so Mum will be with me.  Its 10.30 tomorrow, so will be letting you know all about it when I get back. 


    Hope you enjoyed your dinner, we don’t usually eat till late on Sunday, about half 3 or 4, or depending when I get my act together.  Hubbys been out and cut the lawn, its very windy here today, but lovely and sunny.  I think tomorrow is going to be the best day of the week.  May be back later Louise.  if not, speak tomorrow about lunch time ish.  Have a good afternoon, and thanks for all your help.  Love jayne xxx

    Hi Marie


    Thanks for offering to sponsor me, I'm still trying to sort something out, not sure if I will do a page or just use the forms we were sent, but thanks.  Gosh, you're busy today ???  Sunday is a day of rest, but then everyday seems to be a day of rest for me (ought to be ashamed of myself).  You were here late again last night.  I did the same as Louise and fell asleep.  I think it was gone midnight when we went to bed, it must have been because I remember doing a ‘pinch punch’ to hubby, which didn’t go down very well, hee hee.  Might be back later, if not will be back tomorrow.  Speak soon Marie, love jayne xxx
