5:48 am

rubyfoo

hello again. anybody here?

5:48 am

lbdawger

hi ruby

5:48 am

rubyfoo

hello ibd

5:48 am

lbdawger

quiet

5:49 am

rubyfoo

here, too lol

5:49 am

rubyfoo

only activity is dogs.....

5:49 am

lbdawger

the birds aren't even awake here. very quiet all around

5:50 am

rubyfoo

plenty of birds and fish here, and my wonderful pups

5:50 am

rubyfoo

lovely weather -- coolish and sunny

5:50 am

lbdawger

how are the furballs doing?

5:51 am

rubyfoo

"little" puppy, enormous at 7 months, is doing splendidly. My Ruby, on the other hand, is winding down and I am very sad.

5:52 am

lbdawger

(((RUBY))) but she's given you a long good life, and that's to be celebrated. but my heart still goes out to you.

5:52 am

rubyfoo

it's very hard for me as Ruby has been my favorite of our 6 chows

5:53 am

rubyfoo

as long as she doesn't have pain, I'll do everything I can to keep her alive

5:53 am

rubyfoo

she's on 2 heart meds, but is very tired

5:53 am

rubyfoo

2won't walk in the street any more

5:53 am

lbdawger

that's all you can do, and give her love. i'm so glad you have ruffino now too

5:54 am

rubyfoo

he is a joy and it is wonderful to have him. He's perfect, smart and very affectionate

5:55 am

lbdawger

my doberman had an enlarged heart, it was very sad to watch him deteriorate, and tho sad it was the best thing for us to let him go painlessly.

5:55 am

rubyfoo

what were his symptoms?

5:56 am

lbdawger

lethargy, wouldn't eat, when he "played" he'd tire quickly as well as "faint" from lack of oxygen to his heart. had to give him muzzle to mouth rescusitation a couple times.

5:57 am

rubyfoo

Ruby continues to eat and "eyll" at Ruffino, but she is lethargic and has a "sunken" look about her

5:57 am

rubyfoo

I can understand "muzzle to muzzle"

5:57 am

rubyfoo

yell*

5:58 am

rubyfoo

how old was he?

5:58 am

lbdawger

he was 9 years old. but for an oversized (almost the size of a great dane) he lived longer than the vet thought was possible

5:59 am

rubyfoo

having big, purepred dogs, is both a privilege and a heartbreak

5:59 am

rubyfoo

bred*

5:59 am

lbdawger

yes it is.

6:00 am

rubyfoo

I, for one, am fixated on this breed. It's both a question of aesthetics and personality type; chow are like enormous cats in their independence

6:00 am

rubyfoo

and are so beautiful

6:01 am

lbdawger

chows are lovely dogs. a bit too "fuzzy" for me. i'm very fond of min pins, german pinschers and the doberman breeds.

6:02 am

rubyfoo

the long fur is a bit much, very high upkeep

6:02 am

rubyfoo

but they are lovely and sweet and Ruffino is the most affectionate of them all

6:03 am

lbdawger

all that love wrapped up in all that fur, how can you not love them?

6:03 am

rubyfoo

thank God for that; it's helped husband through the tragedy of Max and softens what lies ahead for me with Ruby

6:04 am

lbdawger

yeah, ruffino is going to be much needed when your Ruby crosses the rainbow bridge.

6:05 am

rubyfoo

Yes, and I will immediately arrange for another

6:05 am

rubyfoo

it may sound callous, but we have to have two chows now

6:06 am

lbdawger

good for you, you need to fill that void quickly or you'll end up like me with only vicarious puppy love

6:06 am

rubyfoo

when we lost our little black female, Cleo, at less than two years, we realized that we had to always have two

6:07 am

rubyfoo

but I wouldn't ever get another black one; they are too inbred, I think, although Ruffino's mother is black....who knows?

6:08 am

rubyfoo

this house would be impossible without dogs in it

6:08 am

lbdawger

are black chows rare?

6:09 am

rubyfoo

I think so

6:09 am

rubyfoo

Max's mother was normal and black, Charlotte, but I think that may be an exception.

6:09 am

rubyfoo

They're exceptionally beautiful, but too fragile, I fear

6:10 am

lbdawger

so you want to really watch the bloodlines of the puppies. sounds like you have a lot of research to do to find the next pup

6:10 am

lbdawger

why fragile?

6:10 am

rubyfoo

w's whipped!

6:11 am

rubyfoo

all of ours have been related! all from Mi_pao kennels in Ontario, but sometimes many generations down the line. Even Ruffino is related to our first chow's father

6:12 am

rubyfoo

I think because of the continuous bloodlines

6:12 am

rubyfoo

and she was born in 1990

6:12 am

rubyfoo

the breeder is responsible, but breeds them for their beauty and gentle dispositions

6:14 am

lbdawger

much like any breed, you really have to watch those bloodlines. and hopefully have a responsible breeder.

6:14 am

rubyfoo

I think it's most true with big dogs

6:15 am

rubyfoo

if not bred carefully, they can be dangerous

6:16 am

rubyfoo

(how do you spell wewee?)

6:16 am

lbdawger

yup

6:16 am

sprite

good afternoon, Babble friends :)

6:16 am

rubyfoo

I think "our" breeder has a website: www.mi-pao

6:20 am

rubyfoo

I'm falling apart....

6:20 am

sprite

yeah I can imagine. It is so hard to see a pet you love nearing the end.

6:26 am

rubyfoo

forgive me, pls, for burdening you with this sadness

6:26 am

rubyfoo

going to take a xanax and lie down.....

6:26 am

sprite

you are not burdening me. *hugs* and take care.

6:27 am

rubyfoo

*poof*

6:28 am

lbdawger

love you Ruby. never a burden to share our love.

6:28 am

sprite

amen to that, dawg :)

6:33 am

sprite

kind of weird grid, this. Not sure it can really contain as many words as it claims.

6:34 am

lbdawger

it takes some digging to find the words. so far none that we haven't had before.

6:34 am

sprite

ah good. I like digging.

6:38 am

lbdawger

tadone! finito.

6:39 am

crosshair

6:50 am

sprite

ruby was sad and went to lie down with a xanax.

6:54 am

crosshair

read a story once,that each time you give a dog a forever home,the dog gives you his or her heat and the loves replaces a bit of your human heart with the love of the puppy.now every time you lose a dog to his or her heavenly forever home and get another one,you get another heart given to you and this adds more pet love to your heart untill that one day when your heart has no more sadness and is full of the love that pets share with you

6:54 am

Charles Richter, the American scientist who developed the Richter scale, was an avid nudist. Rumors persist that his wife was so distressed by his penchant for hanging out naked that she divorced him.

9:09 am

hego

Crossy, go cook Carlee some breakfast for pete's sake!

9:10 am

carleekat

pretty much crossy..bought 2 yesterday... and i have 1 L left

9:10 am

crosshair

lol

9:10 am

crosshair

that is insane

9:10 am

hego

we can't have her starve right here in the chat

9:11 am

carleekat

( for you yanks in the room..we have bagged milk... not jugs... each bag has 3 1.3 L bags in it... u take the bag and put it in a pitcher ( we buy the pitchers...about 1.99 lasts you a lifetime)...and snip off the corner to pour)

9:11 am

crosshair

ok,ill make har a nice green pepper and mushroom and cheese omelette

9:11 am

carleekat

yay...thank you crossy

9:11 am

crosshair

so her son drank 7 lit(almost 8 quarts ) in 24 hours

9:11 am

hego

yay

9:12 am

hego

unlike most Yanks I know metric.

9:12 am

hego

All science majors do.

9:12 am

carleekat

yeap..pretty much... i go through 8 -4 L bags a week ( and you will note crossy.. i am drinking leban so i get my calcium without having to buy yet MORE milk)

9:12 am

crosshair

i convert automatically now

9:13 am

hego

It's so much more sensible.

9:13 am

crosshair

since i do not know all the science majors in da room;))

9:13 am

crosshair

it is

9:13 am

carleekat

yes..it is..

9:13 am

hego

<<<<<nurse

9:14 am

hego

measurements are much more accurate.

9:14 am

crosshair

thats 56 quarts a week on average.the dairy council here must send you christmas gifts and card carlee:)

9:14 am

hego

I wish we would convert.

9:15 am

carleekat

yes..they are..although i never truly understood why use cc's instead of millilitres

9:15 am

crosshair

you are amngst the last hold outs

9:15 am

hego

milmen love her. lol

9:15 am

hego

cc are a solid measurement

9:16 am

hego

ml's are liquid

9:16 am

crosshair

at least you no longer use quintills,cubit and winchesters as a measurement:))

9:16 am

hego

I'm suprised we don't Crossy.

9:16 am

crosshair

was tired of digging out the bible everytime lol

9:17 am

hego

It's that obsolete

9:17 am

carleekat

ok...that answers that..i always thought..10 cc's of whatever meds being injecteded into an iv line

9:17 am

hego

because in a syringe it's measured as a cubic centimeter.

9:18 am

hego

hard to explain, but there you are.

9:18 am

hego

I think that's kind of obsolete too.

9:18 am

hego

should be ml's.

9:18 am

crosshair

gasses of course can also be measures in cc,c

9:19 am

crosshair

hego,our syringes here are in ml,s

9:19 am

hego

by the amount of space they occupy, yes

9:19 am

crosshair

least the ones they gave me are

9:19 am

carleekat

yes...gases i can see...but liquids regardless of what is holding them...in mL

9:19 am

hego

I wish Sue was here.

9:19 am

carleekat

( yeap..they are... in mL...the ones i used on DXH are in mL)

9:20 am

carleekat

were* in

9:20 am

hego

But really they are equivalent

9:20 am

uusue2

I am here but on the phone :-)

9:20 am

crosshair

there she is:)

9:20 am

hego

shucks

9:20 am

carleekat

i knew they were equivalent... that i guess is what lead to my question..why use cc's instead of mL

9:21 am

carleekat

~~~~~ <---- waves hi to sue

9:21 am

crosshair

probably on the phone with stephen hawking trying to weight black holes :))

9:21 am

hego

an ml of water measures out as a cc and weighs one gram.

9:21 am

hego

that is the basis of metric.

9:21 am

uusue2

ok, I am off the phone. 1 cc = 1 mL. I think it is a matter of habit which one uses although the mL is the standard SI unit where the cc is not.

9:21 am

carleekat

which goes to the basic metric measurement...

9:21 am

hego

at least Crossy.

9:22 am

hego

Hi Sue

9:22 am

hego

thanks for jumping in there.

9:22 am

carleekat

yes..i knew all this..i just wondered why use the term...cc's is hardr to say than mil

9:23 am

hego

just habit I think

9:23 am

carleekat

ok.... that makes sense :p

9:23 am

harpjane

Amazing. The first seven words I found are all typed exclusively with the left hand.

9:23 am

crosshair

so,one cubic centimeter should hold exactly one mil..yaa! we is smart;) do we get a gold star suze?

9:24 am

hego

I would give you one.

9:24 am

uusue2

absolutely :-)

9:24 am

hego

Hi Harp

9:24 am

uusue2

usually we say the whole word - milliliter - because one mil is also a thousandth of an inch and we don't like to confuse ourselves ...

9:24 am

carleekat

it does hold 1 mL one dm cubed is 1 kg of water and is 1 L and that 1 mL of water is a gram

9:25 am

uusue2

anyway I must run, see you all later!

9:25 am

carleekat

i love metric

9:25 am

other day in a weak moment i bought those plastic "eggies" things you may have seen on tv for making perfect boiled eggs or for those who use pre packed liquid eggs

9:43 am

holly16

how do they work Crossy?

9:43 am

crosshair

be warned,they made them smaller than they appear on t.v and will only hold a medium or perhaps small egg.i have yet to get smaller eggs,but i am thinking this may be best for pre-pack liquid egg users

9:44 am

crosshair

i think med eggs may work

9:45 am

crosshair

and they MUST be greased with cooking spray,or margerine or perhaps a bit of oil or the eggs will stick in there

9:47 am

Uneaixoise

tx dorens!!

12:04 pm

lilliann

we can tell une.it's a fantastic thing that you do.i asked my local cat shelter if they wanted help but they said they had enough.i said if they got full, i'd be happy to foster some but have never heard anything back

12:04 pm

Dorens

i love it when people ask for things and then i know what to look for. am down to 42 listless and just hoping people will ask for the right clues so i get the stats... otherwise i see nothing right now

12:04 pm

MLFAN17

nbt and nbs i am out poof

12:04 pm

lilliann

bye mlf.tc

12:05 pm

Uneaixoise

good grief, lilliann -- if you made that kind of offer around her, you'd be buried under a mountain of animals in need of fostering!! LOL

12:05 pm

Uneaixoise

*here* not her LOL

12:06 pm

lilliann

perhaps i should move there une.i would love to help with the dogs here but as i can't walk them i'm not much help.it would be easier for me to care for animals at home

12:07 pm

Dorens

i can't take fosters because my oldest (and beloved) cat is not particularly friendly. She still has trouble accepting the "baby" who is ten years old now

12:07 pm

Uneaixoise

dorens LOL

12:07 pm

Uneaixoise

all 3 of my dogs started out as fosters . . . i don't dare take in any more "temporary" dogs LOL

12:07 pm

lilliann

that's an old baby dorens..lol

12:08 pm

Dorens

except we named him baby, so we're stuck with it

12:09 pm

Uneaixoise

animals can be really territorial . . .

12:09 pm

Dorens

but when she is gone, he may be more open to others.

12:10 pm

Uneaixoise

true

12:10 pm

lilliann

i have two cats and i think my youngest would tell them who was boss,straight away but then leave them alone.i got her after my male cat and when she came to live here, as soon as she got out of the cat box she sniffed him and swiped him...she's a litte wich...now she wonders why he walks away from her

12:11 pm

Dorens

my friend was here with her dog recently and he seemed friendly (baby). and he has never been mean to Calvin (my son's dog) when he visits

12:11 pm

Uneaixoise

:-D

12:11 pm

lilliann

i think that would be my problem une, i'd want to keep them all

12:11 pm

Dorens

kind of the opposite of what happened here when i brought baby home, lil

12:13 pm

lilliann

they'll lie on the same bed but won't lay next to eachother.cats are strange animals though dorens

12:13 pm

Dorens

yes, sometimes they are both on the bed with me, or on the couch together (baby keeping his eye on lucy), but they don't ever really get along

12:15 pm

lilliann

when my mam and dad came over from france a april, they had their last dog which they had to have put to sleep a month later and we thought that my female cat would be a cow as soon as he came in but she hid for most of the time and started coming a bit closer to him in the last couple of days and my male cat who we thought would hide, never did, he would eat next to him.and canni(the dog) never chased them or barked, he was a lovely dog

12:16 pm

lilliann

how old is lucy dorens?

12:16 pm

Dorens

cats and dogs really can get along well.
lucy is 18

12:17 pm

Dorens

i'll have to dig up a photo of the two of them and make it my icon... one more task for today (wasjust looking and couldn't find it on this computer)

12:17 pm

Uneaixoise

our neighborhood outside tuxedo cat is very friendly to all my dogs . . .

12:18 pm

lilliann

that's a good age.my old ginger tom called ginger(rescue cat) lived until he was 21 and he had a bad heart and other problems bless him and he's lived longer than any of my cats. i miss his drooling..lol

12:18 pm

Uneaixoise

aawww, lilliann

12:19 pm

lilliann

that would be nice to see dorens.i have some pictures of mine but i don't know how to get them as an icon on here

12:19 pm

Dorens

one of the nice things about pets vs kids is that when they die, yes you will always miss them, but you can get another

12:20 pm

Uneaixoise

dorens!!! what a statement! LOL

12:21 pm

Dorens

i actually took one a few months ago... they had both joined me on the couch, one on my lap, and i tried out the camera of my new ipad.. it worked. a bit odd, since my lap is involved, but still good.. will try to find out how to do it.

12:21 pm

lilliann

very true dorens.my mam and dad have just got another dog. he is called rocky and is cross poodle and bisson frisse.he is 10 but they were told was 8 and he is like a puppy apparently.always running around and so energetic

12:21 pm

Dorens

une, i didn't mean anything disrespectful by it, of course. we always mourn and miss our departed pets. But new pets are certainly easier than new children to come by

12:22 pm

Uneaixoise

i know . . . it was just an odd thing to say . . .

12:23 pm

Uneaixoise

ok, gotta run -- good to see you ladies! Byeee *poof*

12:23 pm

lilliann

12:38 pm

lilliann

it was just about to come into the house when the rain stopped.i live on the top of the hill by the school and it was coming down the cut like a river and down the street.i've never seen rain like it in 14 years living here.it didn't help that our drive is sloped and brick paved for me to get around in my chair but luckily enough we have extra drains because of this but they just couldn't clear the water in time.my neighbours were putting compost bags in front of my doors :)

12:39 pm

lilliann

do you have family here or was it to do with work?

12:39 pm

lilliann

were you ok with the floods mosh?

12:41 pm

moshemoo

yes like you i live on a bank. i was going to see Mrs Browns boys at newcastle metro arena that thursday night and got stranded in it, needless to say we never made the show. the rain was unreal that night wasnt it. we got stuck in traffic for 6 hours not even moving. we left the boro at 4.30 i arrived home at midnight

12:45 pm

lilliann

omg.what a shame you missed the show.mrs brown's boys, is that the one on the telly.the irish guy as a woman? i've never seen rain come down like that in my life!

12:46 pm

moshemoo

once the rain had stopped and the traffic came to a standstill people were getting out of their cars and talking to each other, and in true british fashion when things go wrong people rallied round and made makeshift tents for people who wanted the toilet. yes thats the show, we were lucky and were offered tickets for the saturday matinee. others not so lucky i believe

12:48 pm

moshemoo

friends of mine also on their way to the show got stuck in heworth

12:51 pm

lilliann

well, us brits never give in!!i watched the show for the first time last week.my hubby was home for a week as he works away and he told me to watch it as it's funny. i must agree, i was cracking up!i recorded it last night or sunday night, i can't remember to watch it again. it's good that you got to watch it but a shame about the other people.

12:51 pm

lilliann

heworth? not sure where that is.it sounds familiar

12:52 pm

lilliann

1:03 pm

moshemoo

1:03 pm

lilliann

1:04 pm

moshemoo

1:04 pm

lilliann

some old friends of mine actually go around the country to other people's houses whilst they are on holiday and look after their pets in their own homes

1:04 pm

moshemoo

knowing that the owners know their pet is in good hands is enough for me

1:05 pm

lilliann

they can be small animals to horses

1:05 pm

moshemoo

oh wow

1:05 pm

lilliann

aye, i'd be the same.i wouldn't charge and it's nice to have animals around

1:06 pm

moshemoo

1:11 pm

lilliann

1:12 pm

lilliann

we would normally have them now but because of the bad weather there are hardly any insects about.alot of them have died, which is a shame. i was reading on yahoo yesterday that alot of them will have died out completely, which will be such a shame.

1:13 pm

moshemoo

yes its nice to see them walk out of the ward, we get a lot of young strokes now which is very sadyes daddy long legs i take holidays the time they are out. i have 26 days off this year i think it is

1:13 pm

1:20 pm

lilliann

lilliann

Dorens

lilliann

back.dorens,how to you get pictures from your computor to here as an icon

1:32 pm

jmcnrick

hi all

1:33 pm

lilliann

hi jmc

1:33 pm

Dorens

well this is complicated... first you go to your accountm and go to the picture and press edit... then you choose to "upload" a picture from your computer... first browsing your computer and finding where the pic you want is at... i find it simplest to get the pic onto the desktop and do it from there... does that make any sense?

1:33 pm

jmcnrick

you click on my account; click on edit right under your icon and then at the bottom of the page you will see where you can search and upload a photo

1:35 pm

lilliann

it does apart from the desk top bit as i'm not computor savvy at all. but tyvm for the info, i will try it later.

1:35 pm

lilliann

ty jmc too

1:35 pm

jmcnrick

yw

1:36 pm

Dorens

good luck. long ago i helped scarlett to do it... she doesn't play anymore, but she got much better at it than I

1:37 pm

lilliann

i will be biab as my daughter is here now and says she can do it.

1:38 pm

Dorens

much better then

1:38 pm

jmcnrick

nice . . . watch her and learn!

1:41 pm

lilliann

she's now changed her mind and will do it after tea....so i have 41 to find in about 10 minutes

1:42 pm

jmcnrick

haha hurry up then! we can help

1:43 pm

Dorens

actually i have to do some dreaded housework. this place is disgraceful and i swore since i am stuck home without a car that i was going to get something accomplished. all i've done is clear out a lot of back ironsudoku's!

1:43 pm

jmcnrick

haha well that cleans out something!

1:44 pm

Dorens

indeed, but i meant to do Something tangible

1:44 pm

jmcnrick

so they keep the iron sudokus? i never liked sudoku so i never checked it out

1:44 pm

jmcnrick

*pulls out the chaise lounges and two glasses of ice tea*

1:44 pm

jmcnrick

too hot

1:44 pm

Kaplan the Magne

sudoku has numbers and I don't do numbers.

1:45 pm

lilliann

ty jmc

1:45 pm

jmcnrick

*offers the ice tea to dorens*

1:45 pm

lilliann

iron sudokos?

1:45 pm

jmcnrick

there are sudokus with symbols instead of numbers

1:45 pm

Dorens

so, i am doing 'just one more". Mind you, these are sudokus that I had difficulty with in the beginning

1:45 pm

Dorens

so, i am doing 'just one more". Mind you, these are sudokus that I had difficulty with in the beginning

1:45 pm

jmcnrick

see the top of the page here lillian?

1:45 pm

Dorens

hello kaplan, are you doing better now?

1:45 pm

lilliann

oh, ok.i like sudoko

1:46 pm

Kaplan the Magne

That side of my brain down't work.

1:46 pm

lilliann

hope you are feeling better now kap

1:46 pm

jmcnrick

kap was ill? sorry to hear that

1:46 pm

Dorens

me neither kap . which is why they take me so much longer to do. i am so definitely not a math person

1:46 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Am I doing better? I kind of had a meltdown earlier. I had to cancel my clients. I never do that! Thanks for asking.

1:46 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I wasn't ill- I was verklempt.

1:47 pm

Dorens

the heat is getting to us, i'm sure

1:47 pm

jmcnrick

oh dear! *pours an ice tea for kap*

1:47 pm

jmcnrick

everyone has an off day. . .

1:48 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I got to my office and the a/c wasn;t working and I had clients who are volatile right now and I had a big argument with spouse last night and I kind of had a meltdown

1:48 pm

jmcnrick

any for you, lill? I don't want to be ru** but since you are trying to finish for tea. . .

1:48 pm

jmcnrick

oh kap! that is perfectly reasonable. . . no a/c? how could you have met you clients?

1:49 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I would rather be at the de7.

1:49 pm

lilliann

i have 39 and you can be ru4 as you like, shame i have that one already

1:49 pm

jmcnrick

would you prefer a gin and tonic instead of the tea?

1:50 pm

jmcnrick

well what do you need lil?

1:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Especially people with anger problems. Couples work. I wish I made a living doing something that didn't involve my self, but I don't have any other skills.

1:50 pm

Dorens

ok, one more sudoku done and i am out of here. and kap, yes we all have bad days, but with no a/c i can't iagine anyone wanting to be in your office

1:50 pm

lilliann

i can pour you a glass of white wine kap.

1:50 pm

Kaplan the Magne

I'll take the alcohol.

1:50 pm

Dorens

so, i'm out now, because the service station just called and they are done with my car, so i need to get it. stay cool, all

1:54 pm

Kaplan the Magne

The title frame of the show- you know, with the hourglass--really bugs me because they don't capitalize the Our.

It should be Days of Our Lives, but they have Days of our Lives.

1:56 pm

Kaplan the Magne

Freeze?

1:56 pm

jmcnrick

yes i recall . . . it was my grandmother's favorite show

1:56 pm

jmcnrick

as in not move not as in being cold

1:57 pm

Kaplan the Magne

You have to capitalize the major words in a title.

1:58 pm

hi bichon and dc...sorry the bairn was sidetracking me

3:38 pm

bichon

bairn, isn't that the Scottish word for child lili?

3:39 pm

lilliann

scottish and north eastern english, as in geordie

3:39 pm

lilliann

newcastle and surrounding areas

3:40 pm

bichon

are you from Northern England or Scotland?

3:41 pm

lilliann

i live in durham.northeast of england

3:41 pm

bichon

Is that the Lake District?

3:42 pm

lilliann

i live just outside of county durham, in a old mining village

3:42 pm

lilliann

no

3:43 pm

bichon

I was looking at a National Geographic trip, hiking from coast to coast in the Lake District. Sounded great, but strenuous

3:43 pm

lilliann

the lake district is about 2 and a half hours away from here

3:44 pm

lilliann

the lake district is lovely but alot of up hill hiking

3:44 pm

bichon

maybe when I was younger

3:44 pm

lilliann

some beautiful views and lovely villages

3:45 pm

lilliann

could you not just do a trip to the lake district without the hiking?

3:45 pm

bichon

I think the Cotswolds would be better

3:45 pm

lilliann

beatrice potter's house is in the lake district and my hubby has driven tourists there on his coach

3:46 pm

bichon

There's less up and down hill climbing there

3:46 pm

lilliann

yes, i agree bichon.

3:46 pm

bichon

I wish I could go to both places. We've talked about the Cotswolds for years

3:46 pm

lilliann

we have loads of places in britain that you could walk with going up and down hills too much

3:47 pm

lilliann

i have a good friend who is a year younger than me and she hikes all over britain with a club.

3:48 pm

lilliann

*without

3:50 pm

lilliann

my geography and memory aren't good as i said i live just outside of county durham, i meant city of durham

3:51 pm

lilliann

i actually live in county durham

3:51 pm

lilliann

i hope you get to go to the cotswalds bichon. is there not a good priced trafalgar coach trip to there?

3:52 pm

bichon

Hope we get to do something like that in the next few years

3:52 pm

lilliann

that's if you want to be on a coach!

3:53 pm

lilliann

you and your's are always welcome here and then you can plan to go to other places and stop

3:53 pm

bichon

coach trips aren't for us.

3:54 pm

lilliann

that way you can hire a car or trains and you can then plan where you want to go and hotels

3:55 pm

bichon

our other thoughts are a coastal ferry up the Norwegian fjord coast and a trip to Slovenia

3:55 pm

lilliann

or stop with other babblers in the uk

3:55 pm

bichon

I on't think driving on the left would be very enticing

3:57 pm

lilliann

you can get the ferry from ?? brain gone dead...40 minutes from here and it takes you to norway...norway is very expensive though

3:57 pm

bichon

tell me about it. We were in NOrway 3 years ago.

3:57 pm

lilliann

i'm the same as you, driving on the right frightens me.hubby just does it automatically!

3:58 pm

bichon

Especially going through a roundabout

3:58 pm

lilliann

i think norway, sweden and denmark are all the same as in price

3:59 pm

bichon

Norway is the most expensive, but Sweden and Finland are pretty pricey too. We were in Riga and Tallin las year and they were reasonable

4:00 pm

lilliann

i keep thinking hartlepool but i know it isn't...the ferry goes from somewhere we like to go to in the summer as it has a lovely sandy beach and fair rides for the bairn and a lovely big park with a lake and a train and a little train around the outside,....just remembered, north and south shields

4:01 pm

lilliann

i've never been but would like to go. i'm thinking of looking at a 2 or 4 day trip to norway in the summer for me and my daughter, just so we can get away

4:01 pm

lilliann

cruise that is

4:07 pm

lilliann

my next door neighbour was saying yesterday that we could go to amsterdam on a 2 night cruise for Â£45 so i think i might look into that and that was for august

4:56 pm

ch1212

Yes, my email is one of the yahoo ones, so I changed my password. The one I use online is not my actual personal one, but one I set up just for online use. So I rarely open anything from someone I don't know. Still, you make a good point!

4:57 pm

4:58 pm

redturtlehead

hello all...

6:25 pm

crosshair

howdy red

6:25 pm

lilliann

i hate strong tea. you're like my hubby, he's the same

6:25 pm

lilliann

hi red :)

6:26 pm

crosshair

nope i love tea strong enough to burn away the morning mouth pasties

6:26 pm

lilliann

i normally buy cheap teabags as i just dip them and half a litle milk, but i also drink alot herbal teas

6:27 pm

lilliann

i can also drink black tea with a tiny bit of sugar

6:28 pm

lilliann

my hubby has a pint mug and 2 or 3 teabags depending on what tea bags they are

6:29 pm

crosshair

i also have a pint mug and get the water as hot as possible and a good 5 min steep

6:29 pm

lilliann

i don't know what the pound is to the dollar but that is normally an expensive brand. if i buy shop tea bags it is a lot cheaper

6:30 pm

lilliann

you would get on well with my hubby crossy

6:30 pm

crosshair

1.50 u,k to one dollar canadian roughly

6:30 pm

crosshair

reverse that'

6:30 pm

crosshair

we pay 1.5 for one of yours

6:31 pm

crosshair

but the pound has fallen sharply last 10 years i can remember 3.5 of ours for one pound sterling

6:32 pm

lilliann

the cheapest i can get is 40 teabags for 70p(125g)

6:32 pm

crosshair

thats about a dollar and a half canadain..cheap bags indeed

6:32 pm

crosshair

i do not mind paying a little more for good tea

6:33 pm

crosshair

the small pleasures are worth it

6:33 pm

redturtlehead

Can I just say I think this grid, like yesterdays, is a bit of a stinker.

6:33 pm

lilliann

my hubby is the same, but i just dip them and can re-use a tea bag 2-3 times

6:34 pm

crosshair

wow! weak tea indeed,you like tea flavoured water!! when i am done with a bag of tea,you sure as heck are not going to be able to re use it

6:34 pm

lilliann

i thought yesterdays was worse red, but there are words on here that are babble words, as in no-one knows them

6:35 pm

redturtlehead

yesterday though was shorter to finish!

6:35 pm

crosshair

that de 6/33 is a new one for me

6:37 pm

lilliann

it might have been my nan telling me how they lived through the 2nd ww and what they had to do to eat

6:37 pm

lilliann

it was less words but i think it took me justr as long to finish it red

6:38 pm

crosshair

well,war is over,treat yourself to some nice tea;)

6:38 pm

crosshair

my nan used to tell me same how they had the ration books

6:38 pm

lilliann

i've seen that de7/33 here before crossy, but i forget alot of the words

6:39 pm

lilliann

i loved listening to my nan and my mam's stories

6:40 pm

lilliann

although they went through hard times with the bombings

6:40 pm

crosshair

she had no fridge,used to keep the butter and eggs etc down in the well and shopped daily.she had to hide the potatos from my da.he and his friends used to take them and go in the woods and roast them over campfires

6:40 pm

crosshair

my granpa was a firewather in london during the blitz

6:40 pm

lilliann

my mam was born on the top floor of a hospital in london while bombs where coming down

6:41 pm

6:41 pm

lilliann

6:42 pm

lilliann

6:42 pm

lilliann

my mam was 4 and a half when she saw her dad for the first time

6:43 pm

crosshair

he was on watch with his partner on top of a bulidong marking the bomb hits and fires.he went down to a blacked out pub next door to beg for 2 pints.a big one hit nearby and took out his buddy and the watch building and he lost his hearing

6:44 pm

lilliann

that's sad crossy but atleast he still lived, or you wouldn't be here

6:45 pm

crosshair

i remeber him as a child.cancer took him in 71

6:45 pm

6:47 pm

crosshair

wb suze;))

6:47 pm

lilliann

my grandad was in the army and built bridges and my mam never saw him until she was about 4 and a half

6:47 pm

lilliann

hi sue

6:47 pm

wvteach

good evening all - back to try to finish

6:47 pm

crosshair

wb teach

6:47 pm

wvteach

hello sue

6:47 pm

lilliann

hi teach

6:47 pm

uusue2

one reason why my dad refused to marry my mom until the war was over - didn't want to leave a widow

6:48 pm

lilliann

i think alot of men were like that sue

6:49 pm

wvteach

my husband was born in what was then East Prussia - his dad was in a Polish prison camp - his mom fled from the russians to west germany and then easdt germany - wasn't reun ited with his dad until 2 years after the war was over

6:49 pm

lilliann

i think my nan and grandad were married before the war, but it hapened that my nan was expecting my mam just before the war

6:50 pm

redturtlehead

My mom also had a similar thing, she met her dad at age 3-4.

6:53 pm

lilliann

omg teach. i have read so many books about prison camps aqnd prussia, his mam must have had a very difficult ime but i'm so glad that she was re-united with her husband after the war.they must have both been through hell!

6:54 pm

lilliann

crossy, can we get his book?

6:55 pm

wvteach

i just wish i had taped / written down the stories she told about their times - she didn't talk much about it but i would get bits and pieces - they had to flee during the winter - with my husband (just a baby) and her elderly parents - walked - travelled in box cars

6:56 pm

redturtlehead

I think those histories are so valuable. Very hard to comprehend...in our worlds today.

6:58 pm

lilliann

i wish i had asked my grandparents more but when i was young, i didn't think what they went through as i didn't really understand! i wish now i had asked more questions, but whether my grandparents would have told me much, i don't know!

6:58 pm

lilliann

i totally agree red

6:58 pm

crosshair

i can get the book,but it is in the will

6:59 pm

lilliann

my mam and dad have told me what they went through and what they know of their families

6:59 pm

redturtlehead

My Grandfather flew Reconnisance (sp) during the war, never really talked about it, until right before we died. A buddy of his published a book with all these wonderful photos of him

6:59 pm

lilliann

that would be a book worth printing crossy

6:59 pm

crosshair

it would indeed

6:59 pm

redturtlehead

doing regular things like shaving out in the fields of France. It was really interesting to see as most photos from those days were very posed...

7:00 pm

redturtlehead

course, they being recon had a lot of film!

7:00 pm

lilliann

do you know the name of the book red?

7:00 pm

crosshair

my father has never let it out of his possesion even for one day,and i have seen it but once as a 12 year old

7:00 pm

redturtlehead

I dont know if it was published widely or not, I will check with my Mom..

7:02 pm

lilliann

i'm very interested in true stories about the 1st and 2nd ww, whether it be to do with army,navy airforce,everyday people, resistance workers,pow, jewish camps etc

7:03 pm

crosshair

non of them really talked about it,except amogst themselves.my grandfather said little on his war experiences

7:04 pm

crosshair

but he wrote this book and it was properly published but in a small batch and i think it just went to his fireman buddies of the day

7:04 pm

lilliann

one of my grandads worked down the pit so he was exempt from war work and my other was in the royal engineers and built bridges abroad and got hurt in the war

7:05 pm

lilliann

if you can ever get a copy or find out where it is i woul;d love to read it crossy

7:06 pm

redturtlehead

I can get the info from my Mom Lilli, if you are interested. My Grandfather flew and did recon throughout the war stayed with a lovely family in ireland most of the time. He was extremely lucky.

7:07 pm

redturtlehead

I think it was too hard to talk about the war as it is not a really easy thing to describe to those who did not experience it.

7:07 pm

lilliann

yes red, i would be really interested

7:07 pm

redturtlehead

I'll ask my mom.

7:08 pm

redturtlehead

there is one photo in there of my Granddad eating a sandwich and all the bread and stuff in all poked out on one side of his mouth...I love it.

7:09 pm

redturtlehead

Ok Lil, shot my mom an email now I have to wait and see what she says.

7:09 pm

lilliann

i have read alot of true stories about the war an d alot of people have said that they've never said anything to their families about it or it has been a son/daughter writing about their mams and dads and they found out alot of their war time experiences after they died through diaries and pictures

7:09 pm

lilliann

ok red, thanks

7:10 pm

redturtlehead

I wanted a copy but I recall it was expensive, but they might have it in libraries.

7:11 pm

redturtlehead

BRB

7:11 pm

lilliann

i just think it is something that we should all pass on through our generations...as they all went through hell and have given us our lives we have now and the younger generation today, just don't give a monkeys and i think they should!

7:12 pm

lilliann

have you finished yet crossy?

7:15 pm

Bugsaw

lilliann if you are interested in true stories of what people did in the war you might try contacting the Archive Department of libraries. My father served in the RCAF in England and someone came to interview him in the 1960s about his experiences. He told that guy way more than he ever told us and we never knew about it until after his death. Perhaps someone there had the same idea and stored the interviews in the Archives where we found my Dad's story.

7:16 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

chow cats!

7:17 pm

Bugsaw

There is also an organization in Canada doing the same thing as a non-profit society. I wonder if you can find an organiization on line.

7:17 pm

Bugsaw

hi Gwen.

7:18 pm

lilliann

i actually have read books with stories about men in the rcaf so i might have read his story. i don't know whether the archive department would just let me read interviews

7:18 pm

lilliann

hi gwen

7:19 pm

lilliann

i will look into it bugs,ty

7:19 pm

Bugsaw

they usually do let you read them. That is why they are there. My Dad

7:20 pm

Bugsaw

story was very dull. He seemed to have a lot of suggestions about how to make the military work better than it did. He never liked rules much.

7:20 pm

lilliann

but your dad was related, i'm not, so i don't know if they would let me read them

7:21 pm

Bugsaw

I found his story through the computer but the original was in the Archive. All you can do is ask and all they can do is say No. It is worth a try if you are interested.

7:21 pm

lilliann

i will definitely look into it bugs and see what happens

7:22 pm

lilliann

i'm writing it down now on a piece of paper, so i can look into it

7:22 pm

Bugsaw

I'm off again. People are coming for dinner and I just burned the chicken for the chicken casserole. Came here to distract myself but now must face up to the problem. Happy Babbling

7:22 pm

lilliann

what was your dad's name?

7:23 pm

Book Doctor Gwen

cajun chicken, yum!

7:24 pm

lilliann

add afewherbs and spices, they'll never know

7:24 pm

Bugsaw

My father was W.H. Gaddes but his story is stored in the University of Victoria Archives here. Other guys had way better stories.

7:24 pm

Bugsaw

good plan Gwen, I will see what I can do/ bye

7:24 pm

lilliann

thanks bugs, enjoy your evening

7:33 pm

redturtlehead

gotta say Bugs, I think his story is probably very very nice...all of them are so interesting..

7:53 pm

Altagolfnut5

lemme aske her whats in there

7:55 pm

welki

just googled it - very narrow, popular with skiiers. so popular that the township is considering restricting the number of boats on the lake. same problem at pine - too many boats, not enough lake

7:56 pm

welki

***apologies to the chat for being a chog hog***

7:57 pm

Altagolfnut5

I googled it too, but it doesn't say what fish are there

7:57 pm

Altagolfnut5

yes, sorry all:)

7:58 pm
