Sorry to hear a couple of you are down with colds - hope you get better soon. I've had a virus twice in 3 months - like a cold but no runny nose / stuffed head just a very sore throat followed by a really dreadful cough which lasts for a couple of weeks. Very little sleep for the first week but better in the second. When I told OH I was fed up with it his sympathetic reply was "So am I" - guess it's been keeping him awake too
Congratulations to WS and hope there's good news for WW when she gets home. Glad DD is off to Garden Club - your burn must have been very nasty and quite deep to merit 3 - 6 weeks of hospital visits. Hope it gets better soon.
Has anybody seen anything of P'doc? I think he was getting quite down about ongoing 'issues' with neighbours. Hope you're alright Doc - it is horrible when these things weigh heavily on your mind.
Have to change the bed and do some ironing now - isn't life exciting???
Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
Yuk! My head's all fuggy and I keep sneezing - has Wonky given me her cold?
Flippin' internet viruses
I must've talked it up - I've just had a nice Indian lady phone me up and tell me my computer has a virus which is doing untold damage to the hard-drive.
When I said that her boss is employing her to break the law she told me to 'Shut up!' and put the phone down on me .............. how rude!

Dove, whenever I get those phone calls I tell them that I don't have a computer and get a brief moment of silence then they hang up. We are currently getting an average of two calls every day. Our latest trick is to let the answering machine pick up, and if it's someone we know, we speak otherwise they hang up and try again at dinner time. They must think we are never here.
I'm afraid that I quite enjoy annoying them. Last time I told them that they'd dialled the home of a Police Officer and the call would be traced. They swore at me.
The time before I pretended to be a batty little old lady for about 15 minutes and said that I was doing everything that they were telling me, before bursting out laughing and telling them I'd been scamming them. They swore at me then too

I wish I could invent things quickly enough to do that, Dove. We got a call this morning at about 9am, which is a change, and Hubby answered. They apparently asked for him by name - I won't tell you what his response was! It was advert short conversation.

Darn spell checker - it was a very short conversation.
good one Bushman!
I have no idea why I'm still awake. It's nearly 1am. Perhaps it's because my novel is not holding my attention enough to make me drowsy.
