And Madeira is scary when you take off and land you come in over the ocean the runway starts in the sea!
Sod that. I have just met Bob Hoskins, my boss made me introduce myself to him.
Sharon wrote: "Sod that. I have just met Bob Hoskins, my boss made me introduce myself to him."Ooh, is he just as small in real life - I have visions of him being around about the same height as Danny De Vito!
Hows the painting going? You managed to obliterate the ex yet?
Yes Front roo and bathroom done. Second coat to do tomorrow. Certainly looksbrighter already.
Sharon wrote: "Yes Front roo and bathroom done. Second coat to do tomorrow. Certainly looksbrighter already."What colour did you paint it? That is a question you don't normally need to ask me just check my hair and my hands! I'm so messy it's unreal!
Morning SharonI won't ask what colour you've painted yet as it's only 8.15 your time. I'm still feeling under the weather 48 hour tummy bugs last for longer when you're older it seems!
I can recharge properly next week when Sophie is away in Normandy with school. The weather forecast is warm and sunny but I don't wish I was going with them.
All those children!!! 60+ the stuff of nightmares!
I painted it . Sorry to hear you are under the weather. Watching cooking programs at the moment.
Sharon wrote: "I painted it . Sorry to hear you are under the weather. Watching cooking programs at the moment."I bet that feels good, like exorcising a ghost! The terracotta lady's gone now what colour have you replaced it with?
Oh I'll be fine, just taking longer to shake off the bug, it's made me tired, well that and stopping up too
I felt well enough to open up the house of death and add to chapter 7! And change some bits in the rest of it, you should know how I work by now. Editing on the hoof!
Hi Sharon Would you like chapter 7 to read, I finished it!
Sharon wrote: "Yes please"It's winging it's way to you as I type I added a page before I sent it. I am starting to bring the children in now, but first a little light nightime entertainment for Charlene!
Hi HunI just saw the trailer for a scary movie, Silent House - not one for the faint hearted it made me jump and I am not easily scared!
Not sure I should tell Jo about it! Would prefer to read the book first though.
Sounds like my type of film.How are you and how is chapter 8 coming along? Back at work today :o(

Bummer! Not started it yet I had a hectic weekend getting stuff ready for Sophie she is on her hols this week!
I sent you something to read though as they say two heads are better than one there has to be a way to help my friend Lori out of the mess her sister has dropped her in but I can't seem to motivate her on my own. I need help?
Looks Like I have gone digital - I have just been informed that my first Poetry book is now available in electronic format.http://www.amazon.co.uk/From-Dreams-t...

Woohoo get you!!
I know. I got an email over the weekend from the publishers to let me know.
Sharon wrote: "I know. I got an email over the weekend from teh publishers to let me know."An email from the publishers would be nice, from either of the two!
Time to poke them again I think!
Sharon wrote: "I agree and with a big stick."Sounds very painful that! I thought I would have heard from England about Light the seventh candle too, but nothing so far.
I am feeling lazy today in a can't be bothered mode.
We had frozen lasagna bought from the supermarket for lunch, that should give you some idea of my laziness!
LOL - I like lazy days sometimes. I do have to admit, I have the urge to do a bit of writing - first time in ages!
Sharon wrote: "LOL - I like lazy days sometimes. I do have to admit, I have the urge to do a bit of writing - first time in ages!"I will too when he who watches how much computer time I have goes home to mother!
Oh goodie he ran out of petrol for the mower which means I will be left in peace now! No child, no man and no dog!
I hope he managed to mow me a path to the washing line I'm sick of getting bitten by marauding ants when I peg my stuff on the line!
You must have tasty blood like I do! I take it spring is hitting where you are today, it is certainly hitting here. We even have the window open in the office - lol
Sharon wrote: "You must have tasty blood like I do! I take it spring is hitting where you are today, it is certainly hitting here.

I have that same problem unfortunately. It is murder to sit in the garden in the summer.
Sharon wrote: "I have that same problem unfortunately. It is murder to sit in the garden in the summer."Sit in the garden you're brave. Though I have a box of ant killer for the new house. Annihalate the buggers! It's me or them and they don't pay rent!
lol,I have citronella candles and spray ready.
Sharon wrote: "lol,I have citronella candles and spray ready."Not sure it would work in a garden the size of a football pitch! though it would look mighty pretty though knowing my luck i'd be allergic to citronella!
I have quite a big garden! Plus Monst likes to have bonfires most weekends, and they absolutely hate the fire.
Sharon wrote: "I have quite a big garden! Plus Monst likes to have bonfires most weekends, and they absolutely hate the fire."Yeah, but because our garden here backs on to a field we will be hit by a ban when the crop starts growing for risk of the fire spreading. In the new place we will be fenced off so less chance of that.
Morning, I am so relaxed today, I'd forgotten what child free feels like! Those poor teachers with 59 10 and 11 year olds they must be stressed out today!
The sun is shining not a cloud on the horizon and I started chapter 8 and Chris fixed my driver problem so I can post my photo now of the sand castle cake!
Cool, I look forward to seeing that. It is quite grey here today, didn't think the nice spring weather would last too long.
Sharon wrote: "Cool, I look forward to seeing that. It is quite grey here today, didn't think the nice spring weather would last too long."No sorry it came our way we had temperatures up in the 20's here yesterday I may drive over to the beach on Thursday, though it's not much fun on your own and I'm not picking up Lilo Lil now she's exchanging emails with a graduate. New name therefore must be Mrs. Robinson! Wants me to telephone her no way Jose I erased the message I'm going into town much nicer, calmer! I'm a goin skip diving in Noz!
LOL - it appears that both names fit her well. Are you going for anything in specific at Noz or just bargin hunting?
Sharon wrote: "LOL - it appears that both names fit her well. Are you going for anything in specific at Noz or just bargin hunting?"Yep she's stalking the brother of the guy she was supposed to be going to live with now too! Has she no shame!
Bargain hunting and looking for a late christmas present for Chris - the kids all got theirs I found a nice long lightweight cardigan for Gemma in the sale.
Should have been 30 Euros and reduced to 8, a real bargain. Talk to you later. BFN
I'm back didn't go to Noz in the end, not enough time for a good mooch so I went and had my haircut instead.Trust me it only took 20 minutes from washing it to walking out the door! No appointment necessary and the cheapest place in town the best cut too! 22 Euros the others charge 35! for a simple cut wash and blow dry extortionate! I can have both mine and Sophie's cut washed and blow dried for less!
Sounds like a bargin, I have not had my hair trimmed for a while now, may get it trimmed just before I go to Turkey - LOL
Sharon wrote: "Sounds like a bargin, I have not had my hair trimmed for a while now, may get it trimmed just before I go to Turkey - LOL"I don't like mine long, not very becoming on the more mature lady! Sounds better than old, or a wrinkly (which I'm not thanks to oil of Argan!
The hairdresser asked how long since my last cut, and whenI said a few days before Christmas, she looked puzzled and said it had grown very fast!
She agreed with me it is stronger and said it would be interesting to see how quickly it grows this time! Argan oil strikes again!
I have to admit, my hair is going right down my back, but certainly needs a trim now, and a re-touch up on the roots - lol
Sharon wrote: "I have to admit, my hair is going right down my back, but certainly needs a trim now, and a re-touch up on the roots - lol"your blonde bits showing through flower?
Oh yes, shows through other ways as well. Well it certainly did last week when I was painting - lol
Sharon wrote: "Oh yes, shows through other ways as well. Well it certainly did last week when I was painting - lol"Why what did you do?
Well apart from got paint all in my hair and made me look like Morticia, dropped the brushes and roller a few times, dropped the paint lid on the carpet, to mention but a few - LOL
Sharon wrote: "Well apart from got paint all in my hair and made me look like Morticia, dropped the brushes and roller a few times, dropped the paint lid on the carpet, to mention but a few - LOL"You paint like me! I end up covered in it!
LOL - it's all part of the fun.Have you heard from our friend today?
Sharon wrote: "LOL - it's all part of the fun.Have you heard from our friend today?"
yes and I'm frightened she is going to do something silly. I sent her a link to send Ellen an e mail show and tell all.
Who is Ellen?II sent her some emails today but ahve heard nothing as yet, I know it is different time zones so I will wait and see what she comes back with.

A chat show host, Ellen De Generes I figured if she got the option of telling it how it is to someoneLike her it might get it out her system and get her the help she so desperately needs and if she won't do it I'm sending the last email she sent me to Ellen light blue touch paper and stand back and wait for the sparks, I will ask for help for her she isn't going to take the cowards way out and end it all while I've got a tongue in my head.
Oh right, I know here (well not personally) but good idea. I am with you on that one.
