Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

We have had quite warm sunshine but its gone now but still a bit of blue sky.
Just been watching the news about the rancid turkeys from Tesco so perhaps its good that they let me down with mine . The one I bought from West Cross was fine . Curry tonight xxx

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

Shopping postponed again and my yard is like a skating rink! Wondering if I'm going to make it to town in the morning to get the meat for family get-together tomorrow night. May have to postpone that too

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

I had to cancel what my grandchildren call "Fake Christmas" yesterday,my friend had an accident on the M4 driving home from here Boxing Day afternoon.The car aquaplaned and landed upside down on the hard shoulder.He was taken to Morriston A&E,he was very lucky to come away without serious injury.He's going to stay here for a few days,so I've got my nurse's hat on.
Had some snow showers yesterday,very frosty this morning.

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

Made it into town - and there wasn't a flake of snow there! Family all arrived this evening and have just departed, full!! It's been a lovely sunny day here but v cold and crunchy underfoot in the yard - at least not so slippery.

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

I had a really sunny day here yesterday but must have poured down all night. It was still raining when I got up but I.ve had the window open until just now . My daughter popped in and couldn't believe it ,she said it was freezing in town .
Shame about your friend Rhosyn but sounds as if he was lucky xx

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

Your friend certainly was lucky Rhosyn, hope he's ok now.

Took a friend shopping this morning (her husband is no longer allowed to drive and she doesn't) and met all the neighbours in the local Co-op! The outside temperature is 10degrees but it's so damp it feels colder.

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

My friend took me shopping this morning in his hired car.We went on a straight road where he didn't have to turn his head.He wanted to drive after his accident asap.He was aching afterwards but if he improves in the next day or so he'll be able to back to his home and will give a rest from my nursing duties!He keeps saying how lucky he's been.
Started taking the decorations down this afternoon,will be nice to get back to "normal"

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

Very wise to drive asap.

I've started putting away and clearing up but have left the decorations until the boys come. Off to Church shortly, then a quiet afternoon and off to visit friends to see in the New Year. We've celebrated it together for more years than I care to remember.

Hope you all have a healthy and happy 2018 and all that you wish yourselves.

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

After a dreary start the sun is coming out ,cold though and wind is getting up.
I've started to tidy up even though I don't put much up. Glad to get back to normal lol
Anyway have a Happy New Years Eve xxx

Re: Over 50's Wales club (part 6)

Some heavy hail showers earlier.
Took all the decorations down yesterday.All on the spare bed waiting for son no1 to put them up the attic.
Friend going back tomorrow after lunch.He's moving better today.
Don't know if I'll stay up to see 2018 in.Midnight is way beyond my and the dog's bedtime!
