2:17 am
grannyrose

THE MOTORCYCLE had to go in for it's first service...so he took it back to the dealers as it is a free service the first time.
2:19 am
grannyrose

i was so disappointed to miss you just by a few minutes last night. * sigh * but i did catch up with ruby and worzel later.
2:19 am
sprite

makes sense
2:20 am
sprite

am glad you got to chat with ruby and worzel. Was sorry to miss you too! My times are really off at the moment. Stupid flu.
2:20 am
grannyrose

never mind, there is always email. not the same but better than nothing.
2:21 am
sprite

amen, sistah :D
2:23 am
sprite

sounds like your day was worth it though. All great things. And claudia 3 yo already... amazing. Quite a lady, isn't she?
2:24 am
grannyrose

the kids were just adorable. noah, my bros youngest has such a caring heart. he plays so gently with his cousin and cousins once removed.
2:24 am
sprite

grace. Grace's birthday. Forgive my flu head.
2:25 am
grannyrose

np's dearest. i knew what you meant, sweetie.
2:25 am
sprite

not the foggiest where claudia came from
2:25 am
grannyrose

because claudia is my grand-daughter?
2:26 am
sprite

oh ok! Some misfiring synapses in my brain, apparently. So sorry.
2:27 am
grannyrose

lol....just you wait until yours start reproducing themselves....
2:28 am
sprite

oh ikr! I will be a disgusting grandma. Spoil them rotten, then hand them back to the parents.
2:29 am
grannyrose

yeah....* wicked grin * oh and i saw a photo of latest grandkiddie, sophia, she is the image of her daddy. still trying to get my act together on that front. *sigh*
2:29 am
sprite

and, of course, whenever my kids complain about their kids, I will smile and say: Sweet revenge.
2:30 am
sprite

*hugs rose* I know, darling. It hurts like mad. Wish I could make it easier for you but I can't.
2:31 am
grannyrose

btw, have some news for my second bro. very disturbing. you have heard stories about the asian women attaching themselves to men in order to get a ticket out of their poverty-stricken country?
2:31 am
sprite

yeah, I remember you telling me that he had hooked up with one?
2:32 am
sprite

ah come on, enable... more like plural mouse?

well one of them is cashing in on his broken heart with his partner showing him the door. she actually lives in one of 'those' districts. he has bought her a new motorbike, an expensive watch, and paid for her mother to have some expensive hospital treatment. we all are very worried for him.
2:33 am
sprite

oh dear. Sounds like she is taking him to the cleaner's. I can understand you are worried.
2:34 am
grannyrose

i am praying for his safety. he is her third partner...
2:35 am
sprite

as in black widow or as in divorce?
2:35 am
grannyrose

one of each....
2:36 am
sprite

hmz. I really understand your worries. But don't get carried away too much. It is always hard to judge a relationship from the outside.
2:36 am
grannyrose

the one issue i am afraid of....if he does bring her back to australia, who is going to protect his young son when on access visits?
2:37 am
sprite

how old is the son?
2:37 am
grannyrose

8 years old. he is the one with diabetes.
2:37 am
sprite

ah. Maybe he should come and visit his aunt then :)
2:39 am
grannyrose

this bro has been babysitting for another SIL when her hubby is overseas. she is now thinking very hard about letting my bro back into the house.
2:40 am
grannyrose

ah, well, as you say. it's hard to make the call.
2:40 am
sprite

I can imagine. But I hope she won't overreact just yet. If he was dependable in de past, I don't see why that would suddenly change.
2:40 am
sprite

dutch words popping up in my english posts, lol. Brain fart...
2:41 am
grannyrose

hmmm, he may be dependable, but if she is with him????
2:43 am
sprite

in that case, SIL would be perfectly in her right to say she isn't yet comfortable with the idea of letting a stranger in her house, and to want to wait until she gets to know her better.
2:43 am
grannyrose

good point, sprite. thanx for that. i think aunty rose and uncle don are going to have to put their hands up.
2:45 am
sprite

hehehe indeed. Supergranny and spouse to the rescuuuuuue!
2:51 am
grannyrose

oh, dear. the anti-vaccine people are pushing their case again, apparently. there is no scientific proof that vaccination causes autism. it's so sad. there are children suffering who do not need to suffer.
2:52 am
sprite

it is a tough call, that one. We struggled with it as well. I found a compromise in letting the children have their shots, but at a later age.
2:54 am
grannyrose

i guess because i have been a health-care professional, i find their arguments specious. since parents have stopped vaccinating their kids, we have actually had several new cases of polio. it's such a shame. these kids, if they survive, will be physically effected all their lives.
2:55 am
sprite

I think polio is a disease you don't fool around with. My doubts are about the wisdom of vaccinating against chickenpox and such.
2:56 am
grannyrose

if just one child dies.....i will be screaming for something...don't know what....but i will be screaming...
2:57 am
grannyrose

i know what you mean...but the vax should be given if not already had before travelling to a third world country.
2:58 am
grannyrose

oh and you don't fool around with mumps either.
2:59 am
sprite

hm yeah, mumps... the problem is, it is such a normal children's disease... and children grow in so many ways when they can battle it and come out victorious. But you cannot know if your child isn't one of the rare cases of complications.
3:03 am
grannyrose

i also feel that vaccinating kids helps build their immune system reaction to antigens. and that is really important.
3:05 am
sprite

but so does, for instance, getting over the chickenpox yourself. I am not dead set against it, I am just struggling with it. At one side, it is all your arguments and they hold water.
3:06 am
sprite

at the other hand... we don't allow our children to become sick anymore, not even a cold if we can help it... and then we complain they take everything for granted and act like good health and good luck is their due.
3:06 am
sprite

if I say tumeric is a phantom, would that be my flu talking?
3:07 am
grannyrose

the chicken pox vaccine is necessary. if the pox get into the eyes it can lead to permanent blindness. it also helps with shingles immunity...a very painful disease.
3:08 am
grannyrose

only if your eyes are rolling around in your head....lolol
3:08 am
sprite

my kids didn't get that one
3:08 am
sprite

*emphatically not saying tumeric is a phantom*
3:11 am
grannyrose

a couple of kids of friends of mine, got them in their eyes. she was nearly destroyed...when my kids so young, the vaccine was not available. us mums had to nurse each kid on a wing and a prayer. i had 9 weeks of it. one kid had it, he returned to school. the same day child number 2 came down with it. he went back to school...and the baby came down with it. the same happened with the german measles....except i had FOUR....then hubby came down with it after the kids were all well again.
3:13 am
sprite

am not sure which disease is which, to be honest. In translation, I mean. German measles?
I mean the rather innocent 'pox'. The one you shouldn't scratch, but otherwise is hardly ever a problem.
3:14 am
sprite

rose, I have ov8. Is the other one a fish?
3:14 am
grannyrose

no, dearest. you might remember the word...i went nuts. ec8/50
3:15 am
grannyrose

german measles+ rubella
3:16 am
sprite

rubella... isn't that the one that can make girls go infertile? And if you are pregnant when getting it, it may blind your child?
3:16 am
sprite

thanks darling *thinking*
3:16 am
grannyrose

for goodness sake! tomorrow is green waste collection...it is 8:15pm...and he is tearing around the front yard with a lawn-mower. and now he has asthma...
3:16 am
sprite

silly Don!
3:17 am
grannyrose

yes, sprite. that's the one. it actually causes birth defects.
3:18 am
sprite

I've had Caya vaccinated against that. And Tim against mumps. I think... mumps being the one that can turn boys infertile? The one that swells your glands?
3:18 am
grannyrose

so when first hubby had it, i had to keep him home, as a lot of the women were immigrants, and the possibility of them being pregnant was enormous.
3:19 am
sprite

one of Agatha Christie's books is about that. The mirror cracked.
3:19 am
grannyrose

yes, sprite. mumps can also cause blindness. hence in the olden days, all the lights had covers over them in order to not 'excite' the senses
3:20 am
sprite

right. Then Tim got that one. The vaccination I mean, not the disease.
3:20 am
grannyrose

i remember my mother covered all the ceiling lights as my little bro had the mumps...and i never caught it...weird, huh?
3:22 am
sprite

yeah. Always unclear why some get it and others don't.
3:22 am
grannyrose

ruby sent me some books. one written by p d james is a sequel to austin's pride and prejudice. what an amazing read. it is called 'death comes to pemberley'
3:28 am

From wwhat I hear from Fr friends, they say that EVERYBODY has to take some English in school but with my experience over 15 yrs here, NOBODY speaks or understands it. Luckily, my comprehension is very good except over the phone and with aural numbers

Morning all. I see that SMUR isn't a word here. Well, as there are many words for snow in Eskimo, so are there many words for drizzle in Scots!! Smur is that very fine misty drizzle that gets you very wet but is not heavy enough to warrant an umbrella. Vocabulary lesson over....in fact it's smurring right now !!
