Good Monday Morning Ladies,
Here are another selection of Male themed cards to give you a little inspiration for those more difficult to create cards!
There is a great variety here to get you inspired just in time for Father's Day, whether you got for the more Formal style of the first two cards or the informal style of the last two, something for most tastes I think.
I look forward to seeing any Male cards that you make, we can then share them and spread the inspiration!
I am hoping to get to the doctor this morning to sort this pain out, its really getting me down now,
I wake up thinking I am feeling better and then after lunch the pain slowly starts creeping in, I am convinced its to do with my Sinuses now though, because if it was a tooth thing it would hurt 24/7
but this past couple of days the morning has been fine!
Somebody said that it could be Neuralgia, I haven't heard of that before, so I will 'google' it and see what the symptoms are!
I will call in later to see what you are all up to,
Love and hugs
Sandra

Good morning Sandra and the cafe group. This is a great array of men's cards for sure, they are so difficult to make, ideas seem to just fly out of the window. I much prefer to make feminine cards, nice and pretty. Sandra I hope you get to the bottom of what's causing the pain. I had neuralgia years ago in a nerve at the side of my face and boy it was painful, you can get it anywhere, my dad used to get it in his shoulder. So hope you find out the cause.
ReplyDeleteWe had a busy day yesterday clearing out the garage, cleaned the bbq ready for 'summer' then went for a meal with friends, thought I would sleep for England but have been up early but the sun is pouring through all the windows so no excuse to stay in bed, the dogs won't let us either.
Hope everyone has a lovely day whatever you intend to do, will try to pop in later,
Left hugs in the basket by the door and all is tidy as I leave ,

Hi Jean,
DeleteIt's a beautiful morning here too! What a difference it makes! Enjoy your day! Xx!
hope you are having a lovely day too Myra xx Jean
DeleteHi Jean,
Deleteyou just reminded me that our garage need another clear out, I'm sure we deed it last year but it seem to accumulate again with "things" hihi
Hope you had a nice day. Xxx
Hi Maria,
DeleteThat's because those pesky Borrowers brought it back! xx
Good morning Sandra and the coffee shop gang.
ReplyDeleteSandra, please go see about that pain today. I agree don't think it's your teeth but it has to be dealt with.
Wow! Maria & Brenda what a Super job you made of cleaning and setting up last night. Did you manage to get PAT:- to bed ...... think she had too much of the free wine.......LOL!!!
I have been doing yesterday's ironing. I knew if I sat down for a cuppa I would loose track of time.
SANDRA :- and the GIRLS:- cracking Man Cards some brilliant ideas there, each one different but all fantastic.
Big House Clean here today ...... typical the sun is up and out this morning. I will be stuck in doing "housework" I will get the fresh air when I hang out the bedding. Better go waken "sleeping beauty" AKA ... John ... if I want to get that in the machine.
Other than than the house nothing planned for today so far. I really must try getting my head round some crafting. Even making some flowers would be progress.
Right! cup & plate washed, money in the pot. (((((Hugs))))) by the door as usual.
That's me! see you all later. xxx
Hi Patricia,
DeleteRead last night's comments and - Ooh, it's looking good if Hazel can't get her case closed - Mounties do take up a lot of room you know!!!!
I hope your hot water bag didn't leak ha ha. Don't work too hard today.
Maureen xx
Patricia , So pleased you have sunshine! It will speed you through the cleaning!
DeleteOh - now I've got this picture of a turbot charged Patricia! Xx
Maureen - I think it's A DIY Mountie in that suitcase! A bit like the mosaic Roman Soldier you made in school! Let's hope Hazel didn't get the horse as well! Xx
MYRA:- would not mind being "turbo charged" but ... TURBOT charged mmmm!!! a bit smelly maybe!!! xxx
DeleteMaureen:- yes it's looking good cause Hazel said she has not bought a lot of "things" maybe just maybe she's found one.
DeleteHot Water Bag fine. I really like Margaret's heat bags but I still like my Hot Water Bag as well. xxx
Told you yesterday, I had asked the weather Mann to send some sun your way LOL xx
DeleteBRENDA:- sorry I forgot to thank you for that.
DeleteHave you had another word? .... the sun has come out again. xxx
Will get on to him right now xxx
Deleteits been gorgeous here in Wigan all day but the black clouds winging our way look very threatening, hope the sun stays out so your washing dries Patricia
DeleteJean x
Washing all dried, in and ironed.
DeleteThank you for your concern Jean. Hope the black clouds have not come to anything xxx
Sorry Patricia! Confessed further down! Predictive text - who ever heard of a turbo charged fish! Xxx
DeleteYou know Patricia, I have never seen Pat like it before. But she was no problem after Littlelamb sang her a lullaby she was fast asleep tihi
DeleteAaah you didn't have to get all the sun sent to the once up North, It got chilly down here again so cardi back on. Maybe we can share some for tomorrow ? Xxx
Morning Ladies
ReplyDeleteSandra-lovely card & am glad you are going to the doctors. It doesn't sound like a tooth problem is the pain isn't constant.
Brilliant cards today-perfect inspiration for me as I need two Fathers Day cards.
Can't stop as I've got to make my lunch, dry my hair & open the greenhouse door-all by 8am!
Michele
Hi Michele,
DeleteThere's no peace for the wicked is there - and I should know lol !!!
Maureen xx
Michele - you made me think of six impossible things before breakfast! Have a good and it's sunny - yeah! Xx
DeleteSlow down Michele (you remind me how my day started when I was at work) xxx
DeleteHello Michele - I'm with Brenda in that your morning so reminds me of having to go to work. Was always there for 08.00 before the rest of staff arrived and school business really started!! Remember Brenda?
Deletexxxx
Certainly do Janet! Then when you think its time you can use that time to get you ahead for the day - someone comes in saying can you spare a moment?
DeleteOh happy days !!!!
xxxx
Good mornings to everyone,
ReplyDeleteLovely cards for today for those 'pesky men' of ours.
Pete had similar pain down one side of his face, he was diagnosed with arthritis in his neck. Once the bones had fused together the pain stopped.
I'm not saying that's what you have Sandra, so DO NOT PANIC, it could be a myriad of things or something quite simple or as you say, sinusitis. Now that is a little b****r, suffered from it myself in the past. Whatever, get yourself an emergency appointment with your doctor today, flower.
I'm off on a day trip to Watchet harbour and Hinchcombe House with 2 WI friends who have very kindly invited me to join them, so it's off for a shower and I'll pop in later.
Love 7 hugs
Cheryl xxx
Hope you have a FANTASTIC day Cheryl, it all sounds good. Hear later how it went. xxx
DeleteHope you have a wonderful day Cheryl, I'm looking forward to hearing about it later if you're not too tired. Xxxx
DeleteEnjoy your day Cheryl, hope it stays sunny for you.
DeleteJess x
Have a lovely day Cheryl, hope the sun shines.
DeleteMaureen xx
Have a great day, Cheryl, hope its gorgeous and sunny

DeleteJean x
Cheryl have a lovely day out with your friends, Hug's Lynda xx
DeleteCheryl. Hope you gave had a lovely day.
DeleteHi Sandra and all the lovely coffee shop ladies.
ReplyDeleteWow what a great collection of men cards today, love the tuxedo and jacket ones (do love a man in a tux!) , Cheryl your guitar one is great for a teenager and Sam your travel one is fab too. Thank you all for sharing. I was just thinking yesterday I don't do men's cards then it's just come to me I have a pile of cards that I make at my stampin up card club! It's more of a social thing and some of the cards aren't really my taste but it's good to try different things and to have a stash of emergency cards! I must have a photograph session!
Well it's biology exam today, Emma was having a bit of a wobble last night, this one is the really important one for aberdeen so there's a lot of pressure. I think I will be driving her to college again today and I'm going to see if my auntie is in so I can have a natter with her whilst I wait. The sun is out today and the sky is blue so there's more washing I need to do! ( I'm a poet and I didn't know it!)
Sandra get down to the doctors today, this does need to be sorted out. By the time I'd finished the antibiotics for my tooth the pain had reduced considerably so I don't think it's tooth.
Right must get a wriggle on - see you all later.
Have a fun day
Love Diane xxx
Hi Diane,
DeleteI've got everything crossed for Emma, it's so stressful for them.
Have a nice natter with your Aunt.
Maureen xx
Diane - Hope everything goes well for Emma today! My granddaughters GCSE 's are on the last lap! Give Emma a hug from me, just a Dainty one! Safe travel xxx
DeleteThank you girls, she's a bit cuddly today so must be worried. Myra hope your granddaughters GCSEs are going well, she will have a lovely long break to chill out xxx
DeleteFingers crossed for Emma, hope it all goes well. xx
DeleteHope all goes well for Emma,
DeleteDiane our SIL and daughter are planing their day so that one of them can drive grandaughter to school on exam days - to reduce stress levels, as its a two bus journey.
Myra, Hope your granddaughter gets her grades.
Fingers crossed - Our grandson Dominic and grandaughter Tierney, get their grades.
If I have missed anyone's children out SORRY
To all our GCSE students, Just give it your best. LOL
Hope all goes well for Emma, hope she doesn't get too stressed
DeleteJean x
Diane hope all went well for Emma & hope she is less stressed now it's over give her a hug from me. Hope you had a nice day with your Aunt. Hug's Lynda xx
DeleteHi Diane,
Deletehope all did go alright and that Emma now feel ok, hugs to her from me.
You are so good helping her with the studying and everything, think it would be me who were in tears with it all Xxx
Hope everything went OK for Emma and she didn't stress herself out too much. Bless her, give her a me hug. xxx
DeleteThank you everyone for your good wishes for Emma, I passed them on and she thought you were all so sweet to think of her. Today's paper was human biology which is the one she needs an A in. She wasn't terribly confident when she came out as the questions were a bit strange and could have had different answers. We've talked them through and it's all in the lap of the gods now! Onto the next one, chemistry on Wednesday . Xxx
DeleteDiane, Emma did her best, she just has to let that One go and not worry over it, I think they get themselves so worked up going back over the paper in their heads. We always said to ours " your did your best and that's all we ask". Now it time to do the next. Hazel x
DeleteGood Morning Sandra And My Dear Friends
ReplyDeleteI Am Back!
I Just Wanted To Say A Huge Thank You For All The Birthday Wishes It Was Lovely And I Also Received One From Our Sue Wilson.
I Love The Male Cards We Had Made The One I Made In My Craft Class But Only A Lot Smaller So I Purchased The Stamps And Enlarged The Card. I'm Going To Use My Stampscape Stamps As I Think They Would Be Terrific For A Gents Card.
Well I Had A Truly Terrific Holiday, That Was Our Fifteenth Time Visiting The Beautiful Hotel.
The Weather Was Fantastic, And To Think We Return In 12 Weeks Time This Time For Three Weeks On My Return From My Holiday It Will Be Our Retreat.
We Had Our Stunning Suite looking Out To Sea, Beautiful Outstanding Suite! There's Only Two Of Them In The Hotel And The Bridal Suite.
The General Manager Sent Me A Bouquet Of Beautiful Flowers, And The Resident Manager And His Wife Arianna Bought Me Beautiful Top From The Hotel Top And A Ylang Ylang Room Spray Its Beautiful We Always Buy Some When On Holiday. For My Birthday And I Had Three Special Dressed Tables At Dinner One On Our First Night, One On My Birthday With A Special Menu Which I Keep Every Year, And They Baked Me A Cake And One On The Last Evening Which Was Very Romantic Candlelight Under The Stars. I Must Make A Start I've Got Lots Of Birthday Cards To Make And Must Make A Start On Christmas Cards As With Going Away Again I Won't Have Long To Make Them All.
Take Care Sandra I Hope Your Tooth Gets Better
Love And Hugs To You All

Love From Sam xxx
Good morning Sandra and ladies, wow what a selection of male cards for us today, what can I say, great ideas for us all.
ReplyDeleteSandra hope you can get to the bottom of your pain today.
Busy day ahead, car going in for service (more money) :(. House work to be done, appointment with chiropodist, washing to be put out, where does it all end.
I thought that when I retired, I would be living the life of lazy!!!
Anyway take care everyone, catch up later, Jess x
Jess, we all thought that we'd be ladies of leisure when we retired. How wrong can you be?
DeleteMaureen xxx
Once you have retired, you don't have time to work lol
DeleteWendy x
Jess, I seem to busier now than I ever was! It's as if people say - oh you have time - let me fill it for you!!
DeleteMind you I'd rather be like that than sitting on a chair being bored! It wasn't a word we were allowed to use as children ! Xxx
So busy I forgot the be ! - busy Bee that's me! Xx
DeleteWe all thought that Jess!!!!! How wrong can we all be? I always say to people - "don't know how I found the time to go to work" I recall the same being said to me when I was working, I used to think to myself - what rubbish !!!! xxx
DeleteI agree ..... when did we ever find time to go out to work ... come home cook meals .... do the washing & ironing ... clean the house???
DeleteGosh I am exhausted thinking about might need to have a lie down.
Happy Retirement folks ...... !!! xxx
Welcome to the club Jess. I think we're all busier now than ever. But there again it's better than sitting in a corner doing 'nowt' isn't it.
Deletexxxx
Oh boy Jess, you don't do things by half tihi I wish there were more hours in the day, words from a insomniac hmmm. but when I was working I still had time to do the housework etc. plus going out some evenings but now it's never enough. Enjoy the retirement ! xxx
DeleteHello Sandra and everyone,
ReplyDeleteWhat great ideas for men's cards, thank you ladies.
Well I must get on, sitting here just out of the shower with wet hair, although it's drying fast as I've been leaving comments on the way down. I've had a lovely lazy morning, with a leisurely breakfast with himself still in bed. He's now up and ready and we are walking into town (when I'm dressed and my hair is dried!) Got to go to the bank to pay some bills and will get the bus back. I'm in school this afternoon - fun and games no doubt!!! Keep getting updates from Italy and they are going into Florence on a double-decker train!! I've never been on one of those. It was 30 degrees at 8 a.m.
Got to go or day will be gone before I know it. See you all later.
Maureen xxx
P.S. The new regime started this morning with Peter seeing Zoe to school, so I lay watching the news for an hour and got up at 8, oh happy day!!!
Hope Peter had a good morning Maureen !! He only had one child and belongings to remember so he's being broken in gently!
DeleteWhen you're coming out of school I'll be going in - a bit like these weather people on clocks!
Just don't call us a couple of old timers!! Xx
What a lovely lazy start to your day, what a treat after all those times you have been up early rushing around doing the school run. Have a lovely walk and afternoon at school xxx
DeleteHi Sandra and all the ladies
ReplyDeleteLove the cards and some great ideas for the men. Have made comments on the way down as I will not remember who or what said whatever.
It is dull here but at least not so cold as yesterday so will crack on with some housework
Wendy x
Hi Sandra and all in the cafe today. Sorry I haven't commented for a couple of days but have been rather busy and my joints are not too good today so please forgive me.
ReplyDeleteSandra, I am so sorry to hear that you are still in so much pain. Hopefully by the time you see this you will have made your doc's appointment for today my lovely. If it is your sinus's then try not to lay down in bed but prop yourself up with pillows when you sleep as this will help a little (been there a few years ago so passing on what the surgeon told me as I want you to avoid it getting any worse. Push for a long course of really strong antibiotics to knock it right on the head at the doctors. Will be thinking of you my lovely.
All of the crafts on Saturday are wonderful, isn't the squirrels tail fantastic! I love seeing what you all do, so inspiring : )
Maureen, Such a beautiful card and the "People will forget...." verse by Maya Angelou is one of my most favourite. She was a very special lady,google her if you don't know about her ladies.
Sandra, Sam, Janet and Cheryl, thank you for giving me more men card ideas, once again there is something for everyone. Have a good day. Take care xx
Hi Sue,
DeleteWe posted together I think ! Sorry your joints are " playing up" . Hope they ease as the day goes on! Take care, love Myra xx
SUE:- sending some gentle (((((hugs))))! xxx
DeleteSUE hope you feel better soon. Thinking of you.
DeleteHi Sue, Hope you take it easy today, and will feel better soon.(((Hugs))) xxx
Deletehope you are feeling a bit better Sue, its not very nice when you want to do something and the old joints tell you different. Take care -
DeleteJean x
Sue, I hope you soon feel better, and just relax and rest. xxx
DeleteHi Sue hope you feel better very soon take care sending you some
Delete((((( Hug's Lynda )))) xx
Hi Mrs B,
Deletesorry to hear you no good ,hope the pain have eased for you by now. I'm sending you some gentle hugs ,
Maria xx
Hi Sue, oh your poor achey joints.
DeleteHave you tried Glucosamine Gold Gel? It also contains Indian Frankincense and Horse Chestnut. My Mum & Dad swear by it and bought me a tube to try. It is so soft and silky and just soaks into your joints. I think Dad gets it online. xxx
Hi Sue sorry to hear you are aching, take it easy my sweet xxx
DeleteHi Sue, take it easy and use some heat on your joints, that will relax them xx
DeleteGood Morning Sandra and Everyone!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely array of cards today! I like all of them and need all the inspiration I can get! BC - ie. Before Cotswold, I never took any photos of cards so unless I make new ones I will struggle sometimes! Even with the children at school this year we've been making Dad key rings as making cards can sometimes prove a bit of a minefield in today's society!
Sandra, I'm so pleased you are going to see the doctor today! Hope you get an answer and a cure for your pain.
I hope Pat slept well last night and didn't need to wear dark glasses at breakfast!
Oh well, must get on!
See you all later, and try to be good!
Love Myra xxx
Hi Myra,
Deletein the school I was in they never made father days cards as so many were from split homes. quite sad actually,
Have not seen Pat yet,will continue on my read down and we will see what we find lol xxx
Hi Ladies
ReplyDeleteBargain alert!!! Just had an email from fantastic ribbons. They have a summer bundle worth £56+ (it's under promotions on their web site) but if you enter the code june15 at check out you get it half price. Worth having a look at. Lovely family run company who send things really quickly. Enjoy spending xxxx
Diane - you're very naughty !! Naughty but Nice! Xx
DeleteDIANE:- you "temptress" ... off to have a look anyway!! xxx
DeleteOoh get thee behind me Satan - otherwise known as Dainty!! Well, it doesn't hurt to look does it. Or is that what Lot's wife said!!!!!
DeleteMaureen xx
Maureen aka Solomon! Xxx
DeleteHaha, go look at the silky ribbon, pretty ribbon flowers and buttons that shine my pretties (witch like cackle!) :) xxx
DeleteCleaning done, washing out and the sun has gone ..... at least it's still dry and not as cold as the past few days.
ReplyDeleteGot myself a cuppa so off to see who's being doing what this morning!! xxx
Morning/Afternoon everyone - latte definitely needed this morning. Mr Tesco should have delivered by 10.00 but he had to telephone to say sorry he was running late so he ho just a little behind now.
ReplyDeleteSandra - hope you have that apptmnt at the Docs and that he can help. You have been in pain long enough now that it just cannot be a tooth.
Thank you ladies for your ideas they have all gone into my 'inspiration' file.
I don't suppose many of you are cycling fans but if you are did you see the fantastic superman Sir Bradley Wiggins smash the 'Hour Record' last evening. For those who aren't he had to ride as far as he could in 1hr. He really smashed the last record and cycled 54.526kms in 1hr. The event took place in the Olympic Velodrome London. The skill and stamina needed is immense. We really do have some fantastic athletes in this country don't we.
OK off now to partake of my fruit and yog lunch and then decide what to do with this afternoon.
Hugs are in the basket as usual and thank you for the latte. All washed up and put away. See you soon.
xxxx
Wish I was like the Tesco man - just a little behind!! xxx
DeleteAsda Price of too much millionaires shortbread!!!! Xxx
DeleteHello Sandra and all the coffee shop ladies,
ReplyDeleteSandra, tell us you ha e rung your doctor, and have got an appointment !!!! PLEASE
WOW You have really given us some inspiration today, thank you, a BIG thank you ladies, for letting us see you lovely works of art.
Hope you are all having a good day, lLve and Hugs., Brenda xxx
NORAH I have left one for you by your chair, hope you have time to collect it xx
Like all the male cards today. A lot of ideas there. Thank you Sandra, Sam, Janet and Cheryl. Sam good to see you back. Sandra. Hope you managed to get an appointment at the Dr's today. I have blood test tomorrow for the iron. Bit worried as had been taking the calcium at the same time as the iron. Phamasist hadn't put anything on the box only realised when I read the notes properly. You would think that the pharmacist would have some warning message on their computers to say not to take certain drugs together. Iron was up last time so hope it hasn't gone down again. Bit chilly here and no sun. Wind not too bad. Hoping to get some gardening done after lunch. To all who are not feeling so good today hope you soon feel better. Hugs by the door. Will just make a coffee. Money in pot. Will sit by the window and see if I can see Norah.
ReplyDeleteWashing dried, in and all ironed.
ReplyDeleteThought I would make a card. It was rather simple, 5 simple layers of cream & pink with a little bit of lace. Cut out a nice fancy oval for the "Happy Birthday" . I just needed to add that and maybe a dazzler ..... then disaster!! I had brought over a cuppa was putting the cup down and it slipped spilling the tea all over the card ..... Ahhhh!!! MAUREEN;:- you came flashing into my mind!! What a bummer!! The only thing I managed to rescue was the piece of lace. I dipped it all in the tea, now it's drying. Dare not mention this to John. I bought 18 of these white mugs in IKEA . John hates them, he says they are "unbalanced" ..... a bit like himself really!!! I kept telling him it was rubbish but in actual fact he's right. The base of the mugs is narrower than the top. If you touch them they tip over very easily. That's John making me another cuppa, wonder which kind of mug he will bring me?? xxx
MAUREEN:- the disaster of spilling the tea was a "bummer" NOT you xxx
DeleteNo Patricia, you were right in the first place!!! Oh, I know how you feel, still you've got the idea but have you got another piece of white lace? xxxxx
DeleteOh Patricia, that's awful it's the mess as well as the damaged work! Nice of John to make you another cup! Xx
DeletePatricia, what a disaster, not like you :(
DeleteJess x
oooh nooooo! poor you, how awful and frustrating is that.
DeleteThey got those mugs in Ikea's cafe and I don't like the narrow bottom ones either. No more drinks near crafting ! bet we all done it once or twice, ooh yes. xxx
Oh Patricia I wondered what that yelling was I could here. What a pain! I know the mugs you mean, they are unstable. Well, look on the bright side. You have some vintage lace now! Xxx
DeleteOh Patricia, bet you were spitting feathers..well maybe some lace as well..x
DeleteHi ladies, soon be time for afternoon coffee, walking on air as they say after visit to chiropodist.
ReplyDeleteAt least this week won't be as busy for me as last week. Will have to get some cards made, that might be after the ironing is done of course!
Hope to be back later, Jess x
Good afternoon, Sandra and ladies, did write a comment before I went to sleep, but the internet is rubbish here so it wouldn't publish, then I thought what's the bet I will get up this morning and it will have posted 10 times, but no. Very hot again and it's early, we aren't doing much apart from going to Charlies neices for a short visit, another lovely meal out last night, I tell you what it will be plain food once home for a few days.
ReplyDeleteGreat selection of male cards, thank you ladies for sharing,
Sandra, I hope you have got somewhere with your doctor.
Sam, glad you have had a lovely holiday.
Jess, I know that feeling when you have had my feet done,
Maureen, I am glad you didn't Rush up this morning. Peter will now know what it's like to get the girls out to school, and he's getting and easy start.
We'll have to make a move get showered and go for breakfast. Someone is giving me that look" are you going to get up". Enjoy the rest of your day.
Pat, hope your head isn't to sore ?? Hazel x
SANDRA :- hope you have been to see the Doctor. xxx
ReplyDeleteHello again,
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to ask Sandra if she's seen the doctor. I had a lovely day at school but am now going to have some tea and then HOUSEWORK. We are going to see David tomorrow morning and I want to get at least upstairs done tonight, then will do downstairs tomorrow afternoon. So the programme is tea, then upstairs vacuuming, dusting, cleaning windows and mirrors, and steaming and cleaning the bathroom floor, then after my shower wiping down the walls and bath.
What's the betting I don't sleep tonight!!!
See you later
Maureen xxxx
MAUREEN:- hope Myra does not think your TURBOT powered like she did with me!!! xxx
DeleteI deserve everything I get!
DeleteI knew there was something fishy about that post !!! Xxx
Thought you were telling me I was "smelly" and I have not even met you yet!!! xxx
DeleteMaureen, ropes and strain's for you girl later so you can't do any more cleaning . Have a nice time with David, hope he is alright .
Deletehugs Maria xx

ReplyDeleteJust lost my message. Has anyone seen Maria today? Hope she is ok. Did two hours in the garden but then my wrists were telling me "we have had enough". So came in. Beginning to get through the jungle. It was neglected for so long when I was 24/7 caring that it's a big job now. Got Margaret's heat bags now. They are marvellous. Hugs to all, especially Sandra and Sue. Hope I haven't missed anyone. Sorry if I have.
ReplyDeleteHello Littlelamb,
DeleteI was on the 19.55 train and then I went back up and now I'm back down again hihi It's like a yo-yo to read this book and see what all the characters have been up to all day. Hope you have taken it easy with your jungle, no one around to help you ? You must take care of that wrist, you know
Hugs Maria xx
I think we should all come round and give you a hand with your garden Brenda, would only take us a few hours wouldn't it. Keep resting, my love and gave a lovely warm bath before bed tonight so you don't ache too much tomorrow xxxx

DeleteThank you
Saba xxx
Hello ladies,
ReplyDeleteSorry I haven't had chance to comment all day,
What a lovely collection of man cards. Two jackets, a guitar and a travel card. Brilliant ideas one and all. Janet, I particularly like Sues sentiment die used vertically, what a clever idea.
Hope all "our" grandchildren and children are coping with their exams, such a stressful time for them. I bet you will all be relieved when the exams are all finished. I really feel for the children of today, such high expectations to live up to.
Cheryl, hope you had a lovely day out.
Sue, welcome home, what a fabulous holiday, I am not jealous, well perhaps a little. Well actually if I am totally honest, I am green with envy!!!
Pat, hope you have recovered from the free wine last evening. I remember well my first experience of Limacello, actually I don't remember a thing after the third glass. It's delicious but lethal. So glad you are having a lovely holiday.
And Hazel, hope you have a good last evening, wishing you a safe journey home tomorrow, at least I think it is tomorrow you come home.
Patricia, well done for starting to make a card, sorry it ended in spilled tea, hope the lace survived at least.
Sue, hope your joints are easing up a bit today.
Brenda, good luck with the blood tests tomorrow, it's a nightmare knowing which tablets can be taken with which and when.
Lynda, good luck with the eye tests tomorrow,
Maureen, give David a cyber hug from me.
Sandra, love, hope all goes well at the hospital and they get you on the right treatment. Well done for going to the doctors. Love hugs and healing thoughts are on their way to you.
Hope I haven't missed anyone.
Xxxx Saba
SABA:- good to see you, glad you are fine.
DeleteMy lace survived very well thank you and will be used. xxx
Thank you SABA xxxxLynda xx
DeleteSandra, Are you going to be seen at the hospital (A&E) today or have you got to wait for an appointment? I just hope you haven't got to put up with this pain much longer. Healing thoughts heading you way. Also a BIG basket of (((Hugs))) Take care, Love Brenda xxx
ReplyDeleteHello Everyone,
ReplyDeleteWell, I've got upstairs done so I'm very pleased. I was going to do the staircase but my vacuum cleaner isn't as TURBOT charged as Patricia's it's more like a load of CODswallop, so I'll leave it until tomorrow morning!!
Update on Eleanor in Italy - red hot, having a great time, lovely food and smashing hotel, thunderstorms predicted!!!
Sandra, I hope all goes well for you and don't worry at all about us, we'll just be our usual quiet selves and cause no mayhem at all. I do hope they get you sorted out and that you will soon be free from pain. xxx
St George has arrived, so I'm going down to heat two of Margaret's bags and tell George NOT to switch on the alarm clock as we don't have to get up.
Saba, thanks, I'll give David a hug from you, just hope it doesn't send him "funny" ha ha.
See you tomorrow, sweet dreams,
Love Maureen xxxx
You won't hear the alarm if you take your HERRING aid out! I've just been FLOUNDERING around all evening !
