hi friends, just to let you know i treated myself to my own laptop,which is great but the controls are differant and im finding it a bit frustrating, when i check out your new pics and would normally just click onto each one and click i like or comment, then go to the next, sounds easy doesnt it, we all do it, not now on this, sometimes i click the next pic and its someone elses and i havent finished with the ones i was looking at grrr, are you following me, cause im confused to ,so if i seem to be liking your pics more than once or missing any, its not me its my new laptop,well thats my excuses and im sticking to them, he he he ,also i would just like to say i have my brother comming up from bracknell monday for the week with his family so you may not see me on GOY next week, and another brother i have to take on wed to preston hospital to have a rather large lump removed off his arm, we are a bit worried about this as he has melonoma," excuse the spelling" he has gone 4 years and now this lump, so lots going on here,his partner has also just come out of hospital after having a knee replacement, so as you can imagin guys my head is full of worry, stress and also excitment on seeing my brother from down south, i hope to catch up soon, and if i do get a min will pop online to see you all, happy gardening to all my friends on GOY, love sandra xx

Gosh busy, busy, i do hope your brother is ok Sandra, i am at the moment typing this on the main computer when i usually use my laptop but daughter is in bed poorly and has the laptop! i can't get used to using the mouse LOL, sometimes with a laptop if you press too hard on the pad it jumps to another photo that could be it, you'll get used to it Sandra, keep persevering and don't overdo it!!!! see you soon

Oh well you will be so busy and hope things go smoothly with no complications for your brother ..hope the weather picks up for your brothers visit but it does rain in the South too before he complains of Northern weather !

If coming up from Bracknell get him to raid Andrewr s lovely garden just imagine the things he could bring ...thats just between us though Ok ?

Have had a laptop for a couple of months now San and it still drives me up the wall sometimes, seems to have a mind of its own! Have a lovely time with your visitors and hope things turn out well for your brother.

BB - I saw that!

Seriously though Sanbaz, please send your brother back for next Sunday (9th) so that he can visit my garden. There will be plants for sale so you may get a Xmas present from me via him ;-)

Well I feel frustrated for you with your new laptop, but you will get there in the end. You are certainly going to be kept busy this next week, but do hope your brother is alright so worrying for all, and hope you have a good time with your brother from down south, hopefully we will have a heatwave lol Dont stay away too long we will all miss you,

thankyou amblealice, how kind :o)
can anyone tell me why when i click to like a picture i come up twice on likes, grrr making me mad,

1 Aug, 2009

 

I have a new laptop and I agree with you it takes a bit of geting used to. It does things I don't want and I get annoyed at it lol.
I hope your brother will be allright and your other brother has a great time staying with you. It doesn't look as if you'll have much time for GoY but it will be nice to see you when you come back :o)

1 Aug, 2009

 

Could it be speed Sandra ? Our broadband connection became very slow at one point and it looked like I hadnt clicked a like as thank you comment didnt appear at first ..so clicked again to find I then had two likes for same pic .

If this happening give one click then go elsewhere and return to see if like registered.

1 Aug, 2009

 

Sandra I know its mean but have to laugh at your laptop antics,I feel so much better when others do things I,ve done.Have a good time with your brother and sincerely hope all goes well with your other bro, as well.Fingers xx the weather is good for you.

1 Aug, 2009

 

cheers hywel, BB and lincs for your kind thoughts, and also for the addvice BB on internet speed, could be that i guess, tried baz`s laptop and that was ok, maybe with two of us on internet at once, we will see if it changes,,looking forward to brother staying, just been for dinner and was awfull, so went to tesco shopping on the way home to save going tomoz, we know how to live it up on a saturday night lol

1 Aug, 2009

 

Hope all goes well with bro and that you have a good week with your family. Don't worry, I'm sure we'll all be waiting when you return.

Have fun and our thought are with your brother....:0)

1 Aug, 2009

 

thanx so much OB, anyway with all my id pics doubled up on likes pics, you will all get sick of seeing me lol

1 Aug, 2009

 

Oh well that explains it Sandra if you both on internet at same time either slowing your replies or Baz giving likes as well .. ban him to the shed for some man chat.

Oh I know you two still loved up sorry was forgetting ..normally would agree with that last comment but seeing as is you ..cant have too much of a good thing .

Right thats made me feel a little odd think i need to lie down ..wheres Totos nurse when you need him ?

Oh one more thing Sandra before your brother comes up from Bracknell .I understand this is the HQ for the Met Office where all weather forecasts are produced - think hed mind calling in and giving them all a good slap lol

1 Aug, 2009

 

lol BB so funny, no baz dont come on here so thats out but we both on internet,and no i havent reached the stage where i send him to the shed or garage yet,,

1 Aug, 2009

 

Didn t think so ..nice kinda brings back memories when used to be allowed back in at night .

Hope you have a great time catching up nd things with other family members work out for the best.Love to Clarice too that so kind of you to call and check she Ok ..today was Yorkshire day and we being stuffed by Lancashire at cricket and despite all that I still cant help liking you Lancashire lasses .

Sure there must be some treatment for it .

1 Aug, 2009

 

You're a bit out of date BB. You can't blame us round Bracknell for the weather as the Met Office moved to Exeter about 10 years ago!! Building pulled down now and site rebuilt on. Some say Bracknell has a lot of faults but that's no longer one of them :o))

2 Aug, 2009

 

thanx BB, i will pass on your reguards to clarice, so we beat you at cricket but that doesnt suprise me he he, im just about ready for my family coming, doesnt help when im on here and should be getting things ready but never mind, take care :o)
lily i quite like bracknell ,only fault to me is all them damn rounderbouts, makes me dizzy lol

Hey Sandra, Fairplay for getting yourself a laptop – it’s top of my wish list as I have to share with Gary and Baby Ben – between himself on his football forum and little mister on his nickelodeon I rarely get a look in – Can’t help you on your PC problem you lost me after the second click – I’m sure you will figure it out once you get used to it. I sincerely hope your brother gets good news it is such a worry for all the family – I hope you have a great time with your other brother and the weather stays fine – I miss my two brothers terrible as I am far from home – we have great craic when we all meet up even though we used to kill each other as kids – funny how things turn out – I’m off on hols next Friday so will catch up with you in a couple of weeks – feel I haven’t spoken to you in ages – will catch up soon if I can ever get on this PC. God Bless Angie x

thankyou so much angie, when i get two picks come up when i say i like member pic i just go back and click i dont like anymore which deletes one of my id pics,so thats what i will do now,no idea why it does it, lol, brother arrives tomoz so got to get cracking with some cleaning, baz says nothing needs doing but men always say that he he, i hope you get your laptop to so much more conveniant, and have a great holoiday if i dont get on here before you go, take plenty of pics to show us,take care angie, good journey xx

Yes San, I like Bracknell too, good thing about all those roundabouts is that wherever you want to get to there are always lots of different ways to go.

2 Aug, 2009

2 Aug, 2009

 

Hi San, I hope all goes well for your brother, & enjoy the other one's visit.
Maybe the visit will help alleviate some of the stress you're going through. My thoughts are with you.
Take care!

Hi San! How did your brother get on at the hospital? I've put a prayer on my flags for him.
You never know, it MIGHT help!

6 Aug, 2009

 

amy we have had 3 lovely days now and had a great evening all the family together, but now they have gone and already miss them especially the kids
thanx marie, he has to wait for results and could go two ways, we are just hoping the lymph node isnt cancerouse, but they cant promise as its quite big, hope your prayer flag works marie, your so kind x

7 Aug, 2009

 

Not at all, I'll put him in my prayers to Amitabha, the Buddha of compassion (I know, blah!). Ooh, there's a medicine Buddha too! I'll look up his name!
Glad you had a good family time, it's always an anticlimax when it's over, you'll be fine.
Take it eeeeasy!
