Took you a while to respond there - I thought maybe the catgut your tongue....

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I just thought he had "let" it go by - my "fault" for assuming that.....

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

On the waiting list to have the other cataract removed.Hopefully 3 months at the most.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Good stuff :tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

This seems to be a great success now a days. good luck

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

This is more a potentially happy thought than a happy thought, but I've got a feeling I've just found an old friend I lost touch with a few years back on facebook.

There isn't much info on his profile, and the photo may or may not be him (it isn't that clear) but I recognise a few of the names on his friends list.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I think I'll take "advantage" of these puns as an excuse to go onto "doubles"

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's ace!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I can't match that!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

What the deuce is going on?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It's a love thang you're courting

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thats very good news Maggy.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Enjoy your trip ;)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Have a nice time in Chichester dill as we are away in Watchet at the moment.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I love Watchet we used to stay at a small hotel there when our son was a youngster and spent many happy hours around Watchet Harbour supposedly fishing but just catching baby crabs. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I finally got the accessibility working properly on my nexus 7 and its not bad at all. Only trouble is Natalie wants it now ;-)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

My happy Thoughts today we have just booked tickets for Charlie pride in November in Glasgow & also kris Krisofferson in December. Two really good Country Artists

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Yes we had a wonderful time in Watchet but also visited places like Weston Super Mare and Minehead during the trip as well and all in all we had a great time.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It at Lego land with Natalie. Nice :-)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

l hope you are enjoying yourself dilli.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Very nice dilli.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

My nephew would love to build the R2D2, as he loves both Star Wars & Lego.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

:hyper:Won a Hovis Hamper for coming fourth in the Ultimate British Sandwich competition. :cleader:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice :-)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well done.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice one Angua, you'll be alright for a jam piece for a wee while then lol!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well played Angua, excellent :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Well done, your sausage sandwich looked delish

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That is great news Angua. Well done, :clap::clap::clap::clap:

I love getting a Hamper, it's sad I know, but i really am like a little kid when I explore the contents.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Probably direct from the factory instead of via a distribution chain

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Things are definitely on the up and up with my foot :) - Managed to go swimming for a bit with Natalie and Peter :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

sitting in the garden with some wine, bbq and good music hooray summer has finally arrived

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thats lovely to hear and l hope things continue to go well for you and your wife.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's great dilli, I wish I was in a pool at the moment it's sooo dang hot. Even the cat is panting, though if the daft animal stopped lying in wait to catch wasps in the sunniest part of the patio it might help.

My happy thought to-day is that we are just about to go and meet friends at a local canal side restaurant and I can already imagine the condensation on the side of the large glass of chilled white wine that has my name on it when we get there.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

enjoy joglynne my bottle of wine has evaporated:-( tempted to open another but working day tomorrow

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Tell me about it ;)

Hope you have a good time :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Great treats - comedy gig at Warwick Arts Centre, and a great buffday weekend highlight. All the fluffy flowers and cupcakes and pampering stuff
It's still going on - what's not to love?

Hmm, some music would be perfect.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Peter and I just had an afternoon of lego building :)

Nice.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

glad you had a happy buffday :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Seems after a visit to the shops I'm not as fat as I thought I was..So I can find something for the wedding after all.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

holiday tomorrow - hooray.


Down side is I need to be up at 3 to drive to the airport.... still there's worse things to complain about

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

l hope you and your partner have a lovely holiday LM.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Had my very first "Hello Mr, I am calling from Microsoft because there is a virus on your computer and I can show you how to get rid of it thank you please" phone call yesterday! I was chuffed, been waiting for one of those for years.

Had plenty of fun wasting his time, tying him up in knots, frustrating him. I almost felt sad when he hung up on me after I told him I worked for the British Government and was tracing the call :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

OOOOOh I must remember your parting shot, that sounds like a fun way to wind up my next wind up. :tu:

My latest caller had to repeat every single thing he said over, and over again due to my 'very bad line'. I kept apologising and asking him to bear with me. I kept him going for nearly half an hour before I got bored. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Are those premium rate numbers they call from? :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

10 days to Theme park heaven,with far to much food, So looking forward to seeing Tinkerbell again , Do you know see is around 5` 8" in real life !!!!!!!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

l hope you have a very nice time there with your family Itshim.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I have only had 1 week back at work after spending the week with my GF and now in 2 weeks time i will be off to Florida for 2 weeks with my parents and sisters family! :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

How long did you keep them for? - I managed 45mins.

My happy thought, I booked a holiday in Cornwall for Natalie and I today :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I got mentioned on Radio 1, Fearne was talking about Olympics Bingo I suggested "When the camerman zooms in on a large brested female, Dave from Harlow". :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thank you. I am sure I will.
Have to get some else to take pic with Tinkerbell, wife thought I looked far too happy in the last one.
Well she did compare it with one taken with spongebob square pants. I ask you !!!

You have to try Mama`s in Hollywood Studios. Its great fun if you get the right server & play along :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Where abouts Dilli?
A nice thing about Cornwall is that you're never too far from the rest of it. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

We are going here

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Completely out of the blue tax rebate from 6 years ago. https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2014/05/9.gif We can now go away for a couple of days.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice :) :tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Have a great time, Dilli - it looks good!

I'm going to Mygate again this year :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Oh I do love happy news. Seems to be the time of year when everybody has some thing to look forward to.

My happiness to-day is a blood test result that shows that my transfusion a couple of nights ago has worked and I have staved off the threat of steroids. YIPEEEEEEEEEE.

Time to go shoe shopping again, in celebration this time. :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

See now that IS good news :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

:D

OK - after the shoes...?
I can see a new kitchen/lounge being delivered :D

Good news Lass. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Excellent News Jo https://www.cableforum.co.uk/images/local/2012/07/4.gif

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice one

---------- Post added at 17:44 ---------- Previous post was at 17:43 ----------

Great news Jo, about the tests, not the shoes

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thats wonderful news Jo.:tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Ah thanks everyone.

My face aches with having such a big grin all day. I even got hug from my Consultant and his Registrar. :D I just wish I could bottle this happiness and send it out to everyone not as fortunate as myself. Life is good.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's excellent news Jo. Seems that the prayers are working. Go Girl XX.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Have a lovely time Itshim and Dilli!

Dilli can't say I've heard of your holiday site, but it looks great. I will keep an eye open for you, when do you come down?


Jo, what can I say? How wonderful for you!!! Will you continue to have transfusions, or is that the end of the treatment? Hopefully it's the latter. :hugs:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thanks for the hug Tinky. Thankfully a few of bags of the red stuff seem to have worked this time. :)

Unfortunately the underlying condition (AIHA) is there for life so it's just a matter of trying to ensure that the side effects of the treatments aren't more damaging that the damage caused by the sneaky ways my Immune System finds to attack me. Hence my fear when it seems that I may have to have massive doses of Steroids to dampen down my Immune System when it decides wake up and go on the rampage.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I hope all goes well for you in the future and that you are able to do plenty of shopping even though it may hurt the credit card.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

What some people have to live with Jo, makes my pitiful worries pale into insignificance. I don't need reminding to count my blessings every day. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

August 19th. Do you live nearby?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

A fair way away Dilli near the Eden Project, I think that is one of the pictures shown on you Camp's internet site. You and Natalie will have marvelous time I'm sure, plenty places to explore and never far from the seaside.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Had a great day out with the family at Twycross Zoo :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

l am glad you and your family had a lovely day out.:)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Have a great time ;)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Wanted to own a 1958 Chevrolet Impala ever since I can recall.
Had a call from my nephew last night & has seen one in upstate New York.
That`s the happy side.It seems to be in reasonable nick etc.
The other side of the coin is I would want it in New Orleans !
No way would I drive it down ( even if I had the time) To pay someone would be a lot more than the cars worth.
So my happy thought is that they are still out there :) & I just keep on dreaming. ( would probably be disappointed if I ever got in one:dozey:) :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Packing up bits and pieces to move out of here. It's strange how little I want to keep. :confused: :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

It is surprising how much you gather up a lot of good stuff & rubbish too

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Eldest daughter & her other half are coming to stay for 6 weeks as he has to work at Ratcliffe power station. Also means we get a live in housekeeper too :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I've just had a text from my eldest to say that he's been contacted by a producer who apparently wants him to contribute to a documentary he's making about the lives of young carers. He's over the moon of course and we're very proud of him as he's been very active within our local carers charity. I'd give him a big hug but he's enjoying a much needed and well deserved holiday with his mum in E. Europe so it'll have to wait until next week. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thats wonderful to hear Osem and l hope everything goes well in future for your son with regards to this great news.:tu:

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That is brilliant Osem and a testament to how well he has been brought up. It's not easy being a caring and supportive big brother when you see that so much attention has to be given to a younger sibling. So well done Osem jnr and well done the rest of you as well. Give him a hug from me as well when he comes home.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That's really good news Osem. Good luck to your boy :D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Thanks for the kind words everyone. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

That is really very good. It is nice to be appreciate ;)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Excellent :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I'm going on holiday tomorrow!

somewhere where they speak funny.
bloody foreigners. :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Geordies aren't classified as foreigners afaik? ;)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

I think he may be referring to city folk.:D

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Portugal. stupids.

does anyone know if Hugh is on holiday again and anywhere near there? :)

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Try a trip to Madeira if close enough and try the local tipple.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

We're not allowed to tell you. I think the court order that forbids you from being within one mile of him still applies overseas.

Is it the Stalkers international convention you're attending in the Algarve?

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nice one Osem and justly deserved! Big hug from me too please.

Have a great holiday Gary, maybe we'll have some peace for a while lol!

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Nah, not this week (although our best friends are in Vilamoura, so I will warn them, sorry, let them know you are in the area....;) ).

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4
 

Just in from the town I bought two blouses from Slaters 1 full price & 1 in the sale for £15. happy about that
