> Hi everyone -

> Wow jvh couldn't believe that poor woman lying in ICU while her OH on the golf course!! Makes him look bad - but it's his wife I feel for - hope she makes a speedy recovery. Hope you are feeling better (flu symptoms) - lots of rest and fluids!
>
> Mermaid you are probably in a bit of shock being in such close vicinity to those dreadful murders. I agree in that there must have been one huge motive to reap such horror. Too sad the things that happen these days.
>
> Hey libby - hope you are enjoying the 'back to school' - my sis has the week off - she misjudged when they went back (thinking next week) so she's very happy this week - house to herself. We are still planning on a weekend visit to see them - very much looking forward - and do appreciate your weather efforts!

> Cheers everyone!


Hi Missno and yes we were both gobsmacked and she is truly a lovely lady....just hope its his way of dealing with her illness one can only hope

The OH is doing dinner........toast and tea thats his limit but def. not up to prepping dinner

Glad you have some time to yourself:)

I've actually heard of people going fishing whilst their partner is in labour, I think they refer to them as fishing widows.
Could be his way of coping deep down inside he is worried sick so worried its put him off his game instead of hitting a par whatever he hit a par blah!!
Damn wife all her fault, lol.

Have researched the organisation I'm having the interview with next week, job seems great.

Hi Nef and yes thats the only way one can think about him.....and maybe hes just too old to cope with it all.......cant get my brain about it.

Oh fingers crossed re the job...........too much to ask that you would find out at the interview:):)

> Ooops sorry jvh forgot my salmon recipe - very easy
> I just make a baste combining olive oil, fresh garlic, honey, mustard, s & p, lemon juice and fresh parsley and baste the salmon (fillets) and roast for 15-20mins - easy and delish!
>
> OH has a doctors appt. to check the bp - hope it's not another trip to the emergency room tonight!


Hugs Miss and thanks for that lovely receipe......much appreciated.

Oh geez sorry to hear about the OH.......you hear of families that have raging BPs etc etc........has to be hard for you both to live with a lot of stress:)

> Hi everyone.........I'm back from China.
>
> Had a wonderful trip and managed to walk around without any ill effects. Used my walking stick , which was very handy. i also purchased a new one over there which has antishock absorption.
>
> Travelled around a fair bit and saw lots of great sites. Each province in China is so different, and each have their own cooking style. I must say I still enjoyed Beijing over Shanghai. Shanghai is too commercialised and full of hawkers trying to get you to purchase fake goods from their stores. It is great if you want to shop but I didn't.
>
> Weather was extremely hot, averaging about 36 each day. I have come home and am freezing.
>
> We took a day trip to Hangshou on the bullet train. They have the West Lake which was absolutely beautiful. We took a cruise around it and in the middle they have islands which are so well kept. They say the West Lake is for lovers and where a lot of Chinese go to get engaged.
>
> I could probably go on and on about our trip but I won't bore you all.
>
> Our boys returned home from Japan and said they can't wait to go back again because they had a fantastic time.
>
> Glad everyone is well and not much has changed. Keep well and out of mischief.
