Hi All just reading these postings first time they are verry enjoyable question Frank where you a member of the old G/W forum if so i loved youre stories and looked foreward to them
I have always wondered where Kit and all the gang are i loved talking to everybody
Back to the cold callers. A man with a strong indian accent phoned told me he wasnt selling anything {ha ha} just wanted a moment of my time. I asked how he had got my number his reply from some data base. I asked the name of his company "Lifestyle UK" and told him i was with the telephone preference service and that i was going to report him. Havent heard from them since but havent had time yet to phone them as my dad was rushed into hospital; again, this time with a suspected twisted bowel. It turned out he has a blockage that is slowly sorting itself out. Major worry as he had bowel cancer 8 years ago. He is on the mend but still very poorly. I desperately need to get to the shops as the cupboards would make Mother Hubbards cupboards look full. Im so tired i dont kn ow which end is up
Hello and welcome James, yes indeed the same one and only and still putting the odd comment on here. Been off a bit lately, we had a wedding then a birth a week later and now a funeral yesterday they say it all comes in threes. Today the gas Maintenance who will be back tomorrow to sort the central heating, those thermostatic valves do not seem to last long and the pump was forgetting to switch itself off, why we pay insurance I suppose and cannot complain about the service, the engineer could not have been more helpful and better still cheerful we had a laugh. Spend a lot of time with the local history, not many remember the days when the garden and smallholding had to feed the entire extended family, we had the farm as well, I get asked some very funny questions from youngsters who cannot imagine a life before ipods, they do at least listen.
HI All great to hear from you frank on the old GW all you guys were just like family IPADS Mobile Phones went for lunch with my wife three young people sat down at the table beside us and yes out came 3 mobile phones then its all click click click
Frank, you never cease to impress me. You are fully involving yourself with life and I'll bet you are a force to be reckoned with!
G/G you do not get to be a WO1 in the army by being a wet lettuce, get in there and sort it was my motto. My Daughter says take it easy, why? that way you will fade away, keep busy do what you can do without injuring yourself, the way to a long life., "err" well a longer life in my case, a birthday card from the Queen next, maybe, possibly, well hoping.

Welcome, James. Hope it isn't the last time we hear from you.

I'm sure we all hope your father makes a full recovery, Maud, and that you manage to have a rest. Please do let us know how he gets on.
