Thread: Over half a million auctions at last!!!!

  1. #55871

    Default Re: Over half a million auctions at last!!!!

    Never mind the coffee beans Private Meebo, just top it up with more 'special' ingredient as I had a harrowing day yesterday.



    I hate driving and I hate funerals but had to go to my friend's funeral on my own as O/H was working. Still I made it and got back in one piece but it was a sad day.

    Have had some success about tracking down the owner of the letters that the maritime museum in Cornwall were inquiring about (see #55796) and spoke to the bloke on the phone this morning. He thinks the originals went to the maritime museum in Greenwich so I have passed his phone number on to the lady that was doing the detective work ! Miss Marple eat your heart out !

    Private Mcc2 what are you doing using the 's' word when my things have been closely guarded for the last few days ?!

    Thanks for the link Becky - not an area we visited, but similar to ones we did! Most of the places we visited in September are now under 15+cm of snow!

    A lot of listing to do today as I found a missing batch of trading cards yesterday that I thought had long gone to the charity shop!

    Nigel & Pam - I do hope you get things sorted out. I know with my father there is going to come a time when carers will have to be called in as I can only do so much.

    Moony I think smoking something strange would be a good idea round here at the moment why does everything go wrong at once please, even a trip to the dentist went T up yesterday starting with getting in the car that was soaking wet inside and I got to the dentist covered in oil, why I don't know, i can only assume that the seat belt had been worn by the mechanic at the garage got wet and i got covered in oil, i looked like one of the B&W minstrels gone wrong, the place was packed and everyone was laughing,Then after booking in after 10 mins we were told there would be over an hour wait, Mike could not sit for an hour after his trip down the stairs so we ended up coming home to find something else had gone wrong that we weren't aware of and i cant mention on here.
    Sorry about Nigels mom and the cat ( poor both of them). I have got my pjs on and am staying in them today.

    Buttons feel so sorry for you, Nigel says the mind boggles as whar has happened now.

    Have been over N's parents with shopping she wanted , to me her hand is a mess checked to see she is taking her tablets, think it will a trip back to Drs or hospital, Dad had decided to stay in bed carers had been & he didn't want to get up, then as Mum was coming to sit with us he wanted to get up, in the end N had to go & help him up & get dressed, so its silly & they say they don't want more care. In the end we left them to it, they said they were ok, now half expecting the phone to go again.

    Sgt glad you are getting all these updates over there honeymoon, where are they spending Christmas.

    Think they will still be in New Zealand Lieutenant Maplegin, as far as I know they are there until sometime in March and then they move on to Australia. They are buying a camper van to tour all over the country and then selling it just before they leave. They have work permits for New Zealand so hope to pick up some farm or bar work while they are there. They will be staying with a cousin of mine at some point.

    I didn't want to get up this morning. Went for a meal at friend's house and drank rather a lot of wine.
    I would appreciate some sawdust on the parade ground today !

    Private Buttons I am pleased to see you are taking your camouflage seriously even on a trip to the dentist !
