Yawn ... wakey, wakey ...

aint going that way again shiney too many monkeys and hippos

 

Morning everyone and happy birthday Whiley!

Think it's mainly the spirits duty that'll get me... I'm fortunate enough not to have to drive very much (although I don't know that it's that great having to take public transport to work every day), but I can see that's going to hurt a lot of people.

 

morning shiney and inter, yes love my horses, got a bet on today, just do saturdays normally and big meetings, always have lucky 15s you can pick up some good winnings doing that.
:D

 

morning julia, i guess a lot of people have to rely on their cars as they are not on bus routes or train routes, my daughter and her hubby need their cars as they are in that position, were they live there is no way with 2 children they could get a bus and there is no trains were they live.

 

Morning Linda - yes I do feel sorry for people in your daughter's predicament. When our public transport is in an area, and when it's regular, it's pretty good. My parents live near Nottingham and they have excellent bus, tram and train services. But it's very hard for people in rural areas. I think I foolishly believed the politicians when they said that the fuel duties and the congestion charges would be ploughed back into improving roads and public transport. Ha!!

 

julias, only pleased my daughter has a small car to run, sunshinep my friend lives even more rural they need 2 cars, as she hasnt a bus or train service were she lives.
this hitting out on 4x4 drivers is absolutely appalling as these people that own them a lot live in rural areas, were it easier to drive these vehicles especially iff they get bad weather, snow etc.
this government is going a bit too far now and i only hope in my next life im not born in britain.

 

Morning all.

Not going to mention anything more about the budget after all few of us benefit from it these days but then who ever did anyway!

Kandy I know how you feel sweetheart once you're busy doing something you really love (like gardening of any kind) the time passes so quickly and one doesn't realise how we mess ourselves up until the end.....but no matter how bad we feel the enjoyment over rides any kind of pain and we always go back for more. Hope you're feeling better today darling.

Shiney hope all goes well for you this weekend and everyone enjoys your menu.

Ste at the moment AOL is being more of a pain in the butt than my normal pain if you get my meaning it's a real nightmare boy 'they' better sort it out soon otherwise we're trying somewhere else!

Rosa years ago Bob and I use to love going to the races the thrill and atmosphere is amazing I remember one time at Market Rasen I picked a 16 to 1 winner...... Bob was pretty pleased as he left with a couple of hundred quid in his pocket.

I picked the guys event t-shirts up yesterday and although they are simple they are brilliant the boys will be real pleased even more so when they find out that they are our little treat for them all......�£10 per t-shirt can't be bad at all after the local shop wanted around �£35 for the same thing!

Harry and the rest of the guys have been ranked 18 in the event but the others in the ranking are coursing up-roar about it and have told officals they need to change the rankings as Harry's clan (team) are far better than that.....which is real nice of the other clans to do so.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend I'ave still got lots to do getting ready for the other boys coming next week, I'm also going to try and fatten Mike from Sweden up again which should be fun! :D Hel.xxx.

 

Good morning everyone

Woke up at 5am this morning with the strat of a headache so hope it doesn't hang around long :rolleyes: Feel very blocked up and a bit chesty so need some fresh air to clear the cobwebs away,though at the moment it is damp out there so I might be stuck inside all day :(
