Good luck with it all Anne. ......... Hope we are all well today. I'm about the same. ........ By the way, is today the day Halloween is celebrated? I think the parties are tonight, being Saturday. But it is the real day tomorrow. I suppose the little children will be round tonight knocking on the door for trick or treat. I have a few bags of sweets to give out if so. ..... Well have a good day all.

Not been on here for a day or two. pleased things are going your way Anne, lets keep our fingers crossed . Yes get a few quotes for the removals they vary alot. Still coughing, went for flu jab today that seems O K. Nice day here though it did rain very early this morning, and a few spots towards tea time. Craig seems to be doing well with the driving Pauline. Freds put the old key board onto this computer I can manage it much better than the new Dell one.

Im not really a halloween person , in my opinion its just another money scam. I think some of the family enjoy it, but its not for us. Well it been a dull day, just hope our Susan and Brigid dont get to cold on the return from their holiday, having been in a warm country. Tobys in the work shed with Fred, trying to finish off his trolly, he started during half term.

I dished out sweets to a really lovely group of five children all dressed up as different things, one was a cat with mask on top of her head and a blacked out face, one was an alien, there was a green one, and a white panda-eyed one - and they were clutching a toddler who wasn't dressed up. Mum was at the end of the path dressed as a witch. So I shoveled sweets into their bags with a tablespoon, and then worried about the toddler chewing on the hard gums and choking .... oh dear ... My American friends are really into it, but I do agree there's a lot of tat around in the shops.
We are really into our downsizing now - unbelievable what I've unearthed from my bedroom cabinet drawers - nine sets of miniature headphones included. We've thrown away a bed, and we've got to get rid of some other furniture - our dining room table and chairs in particular - no room for them in the flat. I'm so excited ;D
What kind of trolley are you and Toby building, mumndad?
Hope Suze and B had a lovely holiday, welcome back!

designed as you go go cart, all from, scrap(no such word) useful bits and pieces VERY USEFUL when converted into four wheel transport, there as to be enough for two. Toby was waking me up this morning 7-30 can he come down from school and Cary on the making them. gives me time to sort things out. We are very pleased to hear that your house sale is working to plan,and that you have a smooth change over.
