Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Eeeeeeewwwwwwww

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I have never been to the Lake District. I believe it is beautiful. Is there much entertainment at night,

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

The Meds and also talking to my shrink are helping me no end. I feel that I will back to myself in no time (But it is a long way)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I'm sure you'll get there eventually :tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thanks for the support Dilli. Hope all is well with you?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Ah I'm just the same lol - only in hospital three times next week :) (If they turn up ;))

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

So happy to hear that devil. Baby steps and dont rush yourself as it does take time. Be gentle with yourself :hugs::hugs:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

So long as your little pussy is OK as well ( your avatar ) very cute.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

She keeps me on my toes :)

I'm getting a new cast next week - Not sure what colour to get this time. What can I say it's the highlight of the week ;)

Red
Green
Dark Blue
Light Blue
Pink
Tango Orange
Black
White

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

What colour's have you had so far dilli?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It's got to be Pink to match Jadzia's collar of course. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I've had all of them :)

---------- Post added at 18:45 ---------- Previous post was at 18:44 ----------

I was going to say people will start to worry about me - but they already do :)

edit - she's been using my current one as a scratching post since we got her :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Pardon?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Ah well as Jo said the pink you will have to go with to match the collar :D:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Is the colour sprayed on dilli or is it a bandage type affair because if so couldn't you have a barbers pole effect?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Booked our holiday in Tenerife :) and the flight:erm:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It is like a bandage but when it sets it's like araldite.

They do mix colours but only on special occasions (like christmas) - and they ahve said they will do something special for the wedding.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Silver with wedding bells on it :D:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Beware of the nursing profession offering to "do something special" for the groom. Be afraid, very afraid. :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Excellent :)


Just be glad I won't be flying you :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

When are ye going Tinky?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Not till October, we are going for 10 days.:) We've still got a 4 day break in Paignton before that in September. :):)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

How are you feeling about it? Are you ok?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I've paid extra to pick our seats, when I get to choose them I will feel happier.........and I've still got the tablets lol! :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Ah your well sorted Tinky and I so admire you as well for your bravery. I went as far as the airport to find out about flying that is how far I got :(:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

You could always go on a cruise Sash!:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well yesterday did not start off very well because we got a parking ticket but come dinnertime we had a lovely meal at a restaurant and then our parents stubbornly insisted that they would pay for the parking ticket so not a bad day all in all.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Having 8GB of Ram in my Mac certainly does help :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Two day's to my holiday :D
I can't wait LOL

Today I'm feeling soooooooo Happy and Positive :tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Yes not long now Tosh, get out the sleeping bag and the tent! Where did you say you were off to? PS hope the weather is kind to you, or don't you care?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Yup my tent, sleeping bag and all my gear is ready but not packed yet LOL,
I'm off to Keswick in the Lake District :)
TBH Tinky I am not bothered about the weather, as when younger i was off camping and one night was nothing but gale force wind's and very heavy rain.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Natalie just bought a bread maker, hope it was worth it.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Trust me Dilli it will be,
The smell of fresh baking bread is wonderful
and You will know exactly what is in the bread too :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

yes Dilli you may knead it as it may save you some dough lol!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It's doing it's first loaf as we speak :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Hope it tastes good. Pity we could not all have a slice of bread & nice cheese.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I use mine often. Once you've tasted it you'll know it was worth it :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

We have decided the Chinese meal tonight will be, house special (mixed meats and noodles), sweet and sour battered king prawns, prawn crackers, fried rice and further portion of noodles yummy!!!!!!!!! Can't wait!:):):):):):):)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That sound delicious Tinky. I hope you get them to stick a candle in the special to celebrate. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Have a really lovely time and hope the sun shines for you as well as an added bonus but as you said you dont which way the weather goes ;)

Well what did your bread taste like dilli?

---------- Post added at 19:50 ---------- Previous post was at 19:49 ----------

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Cheese and onion bread? :erm:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Yip we got that one in a packet from asda

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Now that I would like to taste. Any chance of sharing :D:D:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Found that Yardley are back in business for soaps and fragrances.Sadly though they still don't make my favourite Narcissus.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well if you are passing sunny Potton (Bedfordshire) you are always welcome :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Next Friday my girlfriend flies in for a 9 day stay!!! shame about the weather though!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That made Emily and I go "awwwwww" lots! :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

You wont mind the weather when your girlfriend comes over and you will be so happy. I'm really delighted for you. You must be all excited

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Jadzia look's so cute Dilli, I think even my two canines would be gentle and caring towards her :)
BTW how is the bread machine doing ???

---------- Post added at 20:16 ---------- Previous post was at 20:14 ----------

The Happiness of been together will make You forget the weather,
Enjoy and savour the time together :tu: :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Back from honeymoon, enjoyed it immensely. Eurostar is fantastic, 2 hours from Brussels to London.

No official wedding pics yet, but attached some from friends and family...

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Welcome back Cobby. Those photos really look fantastic and you both look so happy. I wish you all the best for the future :hugs::hugs::hugs:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I liked #4 best - as Juliann emerges from your rucksack :D
Lovely pics K and thanks for sharing the sunshine and the joy.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Love the Kinder low trig pic cobby, fantastic place to be on a day like that.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

We were so lucky with the weather. Stepmum is 71 so really proud she made it up there!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

She's done fantastic, it's not exactly a mild health walk, it's blimmin steep whichever way you go! even Jacob's Ladder.

Black Combe (Millom) up near Barrow is a cracker if you've got time to venture that way, amazing views across the Lakes and the Irish Sea. We did that one yesterday as backup plan as we originally intended to head over the border and do Cairnsmore of Fleet but swerved it because of the weather.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Shouldn't that be how is the bread machine doughing lol?:D

Juliann looks absolutely stunning Cobby, you make a lovely couple.:)

Who is the lady in the last picture with the dark hair? I'm being nosey as usual.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice :) :tu:

---------- Post added at 10:13 ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 ----------

It's not bad at all - I'm going to clean out the kitchen and try my cheese and onion bread now :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I shall do my anti-rain dance just for you. Hopefully it should start to send the clouds away, not that I think you will notice once she arrives.

Nice to have you and Juliann back Cobby. The photos are great.

Oh I bet I have missed you Tosh, just in case you read this have a safe journey and I hope you enjoy the holiday.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's my 71 year old StepMum!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Drool... with butter Dilli? Sounds yummy!

Amazing!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I keep getting reminded of the 'Benno' Fosters advert :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I j ust got my date for the op on my hands - (14th September) - and my new cast is pink :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Oh you Fashionista. All you need is to get a pink rucksack and you will be well away. :D

14th September should give you a chance to get your wrist fully functioning in time for Christmas.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I performed the re tune on my parents TV this morning, they are happy :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Passed my Level 1 Numeracy Test :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Don,t fancy that one. Please let us know.!!!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well done. what's next?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I'm hoping Madgamer answers Level 2 otherwise the course was a waste of time.:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well Madgamer did say previously, I think, that he was heading for higher things but I wasn't sure if he could maybe skip some steps on his planned self improvement route. :) Not sure if that is allowed.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

ITQ to refresh on MS Office, then onto the Level 2 Literacy and Numeracy courses

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Good to see that you are still enthusiastic about doing the courses. :tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

If it improves my chances of gaining a job, then why not :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

The week-end begins NOW!!!!!!!

(for 23 days......:D).

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Excellent weather forecast for the weekend.. all systems go for our annual tab up to Cross Fell. No GPS required this time fortunately.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Hopefully you'll get great views over to the lakes!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's some weekend. :) What trade union are you in. :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Mountain forecast gives hazy sunshine so the distant visibility won't be that great. Got caught in clag and rain last time we went up which is not the best situation to be in up there. Supposed to be quite windy though tomorrow so the character of the place will definitely come alive :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Never been in a Union in 37 years of employment - although I respect the rights of others to do so.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Jammy git! I've got to wait til 31st August for my time off :p:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I'm going away to Selsea for a week as a treat from a member of the family for my honeymoon. Which is nice as we were not expecting to be able to get away :)

On my list is to go see the Mary Rose - Natalie wants to visi the isle of Wight

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thinking of going a Caledonian tour to the Isle of Wight. Have any of you been there?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I have been to the Isle of Wight before yup.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Did you enjoy it there? It is a long drive from Glasgow to Southhampton. But it will be a change.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It was nice indeedy :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Dilli: Don't want to rain on your parade, but I believe the museum for the Mary Rose itself is being rebuilt and isn't open to the public at the moment. Might be worth checking if that's all you want to see. Have a look at http://www.maryrose.org/new_museum/index.html

I might have got it wrong, of course. ;)

Have a great time anyway, whatever you get up to.

If you like beaches, try West Wittering.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well we took our mum and dad for a meal yesterday and very nice it was indeed..

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Just had the full Turkish shave experience, now sat overlooking Kyrenia Harbour having lunch and Efes (local beer, very nice), with free wifi - result.....

Temp approx. 42C, so staying in the shade, due to my naturally blue complexion. :D

Assiduously avoiding dehydration (cf Efes above ;))

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well l hope you are enjoying your holiday and l am glad l am not experiencing the oppressive tempertures that are in prevelant in Turkey at the moment.;)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

1 day of work to go before flying out to the gorgeous island of Mauritius next week.

Continuing study for degree, decided to roll with Physical Sciences in the end.
