Moving - Halloween - My Birthday
11/02/09 04:36:55 | 4 Comments
This week has been an eventful one for me. Last Sunday I moved into my new flat. Saturday was Halloween and this Sunday was my 61st Birthday.
The actual move went really smoothly, but then it would as I had no furniture to move. Having moved out of a caravan where all fixtures and fittings came with it, I had to buy all new furniture for the new flat. All was in situ in the flat ready for the move on Sunday, that is all except the suite which is another story, so it was only a... -
A Little Bit of Silliness

Way back in 1969 when I was first married, my Husband and I moved into our very first home together with our Daughter Sarah, who was then 3 months old. Prior to that we had been living with my Mother.
In those days one didn't buy ones telephone but it came as part of a package with the rental of the telephone line.
The trimphone had not long been... -
A New Flat
09/09/09 01:25:05 | 32 Comments
Last Thursday I received a phone call to say that a flat had come vacant in the complex that I have been hoping to move to.
FridayI went along to collect the keys to go have a look see. As per usual it ended up as a family outing. The whole family, naturally, wanted to take a look see. By the time we had gathered together there were 10 of us.
You can imagine it with everyone looking and planning what I could do with it and what would be best here, there, or whatever. My head... -
My Poor Bayley

I took Bayley to the vets this evening for
a dental check up. The reason being, not because he is having any trouble with his teeth, but because he is getting old.
He is now coming up for 12 years old and I thought I would have his teeth checked again for him to have another scale and polish while he is still young enough not to be in the danger zone of going under... -
Pension Service Have Actually Done Something Right
07/27/09 15:06:08 | 9 Comments
A couple of weeks ago I hunted out a letter that I had received from the DWP (department of work and pensions) about 5 years ago. That letter was a forecast of what my pension would be now if my circumstances didn't change.
The amount of Government Pension I was told I would receive would be in the region of £101 per week. The basic pension today is approx £97 per week. The minimum amount today the Government says one can live on is £130. Therefore if one has no private... -
New Plans

Since moving down to Dorset in the April of 2007 I have thoroughly enjoyed myself. Living in a caravan has been fantastic, and seeing how my girls are all now settled and happy, I can now breath easy and know this move was one of the best decisions I have every made.
Living in a caravan as I say has been great, but I also have to say, "up until now". There is much now that I feel I am missing by not living in bricks and mortar and by living in this location. So I have decided... -
Vive la France

French President Nicolas Sarkozy has decided enough is enough regarding Muslim women wearing the burqa in his country and is all set to ban it.
I can't tell you how thrilled I was to read this and my only disappointment is that it isn't our British Government that have the balls to do this.
Putting it very simply first. If we wore T Shirts and Shorts in any Muslim country we would be put in prison. If they expect us to follow their dress codes then they must expect to... -
Bloody Pension Service

Ok, the government pension is my right. It's not something that I am claiming. It's a pension that I have paid in for all my life. It's a set amount that I am entitled to. Even if I'm continuing to work, I am still entitled to my pension. No if, but, or maybe. It's my money. So please tell me how the heck it can be stopped being paid to me.
On Monday the 8th of June I checked my bank account only to find that my pension had not been paid in. No worries it... -
The Horror of Being off Line

On Tuesday May 26th my web card, which I now know is the equivalent of what we call in Britain, a dongle, decided to pack up on me. I rushed it into the shop for repair or replacement and was told it would take 14 working days, (3 weeks). Horror of horrors.
My Sarah having just moved was, and still is, having trouble getting broadband wireless installed due to the fact that she now lives in the New Forest.
Having broken my ribs a couple of weeks before, I was staying with... -
A Couple of Broken Ribs

I am typing this on wordpad at approximately 6.30pm Tuesday evening. As I type this I have no idea when I will be able to post it as I am sitting in my Daughters new house where her web access has not been connected yet and wont be until Thursday.
The reason I am sitting here at Sarah's and not in my own home as I was up until 9pm last night, is because from 9pm until midnight last night I was up at the Accident and Emergency department of our local hospital. I left there doped up...
