Hi Lazar, what a to do! We've done that with the freezer before now, so annoying. Nice to see you The only thing I know about Gettysburg Frannie is the Gettysburg Address.

My Salon uses them, and I got a good deal on some from an internet site Sorry to hear about the doggie problems, it's so sad, even if you understand their ageing and it can't be helped. I reckon Dennis is over 10 years old, possibly 12. So far, if he's not attacked, he seems in good condition, goodness knows what's going to happen if he becomes ill. I don't blame you for steering clear of the crowds in the heat - totally agree.

I got some really good shampoo and conditioner, it's for coloured hair, or hair that needs 'rejuvenating' and IT'S AMERICAN! The brand is called Matrix, do you know it?

Well, bits of news It's extremely hot here all of a sudden, and the pollen count's high (hence the appearance of hay fever for me this year) ED has been very busy at work, the sale is on and she's rushed off her feet, so I hadn't spoken to her for a week until today. She did however, meet up with her sister on Saturday, they shopped for a picnic at the market and then took it to Regents Park to eat and they had a lovely time. http://www.royalparks.org.uk/parks/regents_park/ After that they went to ED's b/f's salon and he cut YD's hair for her, and did her a blow dry with curls. She then went on a night out with her gang of friends in London. YD called me today, thrilled with her hair, and says work's going well, but also busy as they've gone live with the new systems (her boss is still away) I'm going in to town on Wednesday and meeting her for coffee. IMOM is ok although he nearly burst a blood vessel shouting at the TV yesterday lol. House is finished apart from some outside decorating and this missing piece for a radiator. I still have a couple of rooms of the dregs of the junk - must make an effort to do about an hour a day sorting. Oh and I have three baskets of ironing waiting, but it's far too hot! ^ was it worth it? not exactly exciting is it?

I was just bobbing back and forwards to the stove Frannie, making chilli con carne, and I'm also shelling some peas I'll type my news/updates and you type yours ... race ya! >>>

Yeah, that's traditional - as are the different styles of goal celebrations, some of which are very creative

Oh and about the football, I'm hedging my bets now, supporting Holland and Spain (because players from my club (Liverpool) feature in their sides, and also Ghana, because they look like they're having such a great time at the tournament

Have tried getting in through all the FB options, and also through Playfish's own website - no joy still Frannie.

It happened again last night, Argentina's first (I think) goal was clearly offside, the Mexican players absolutely surrounded the Ref and, against all FIFA instructions, there was a replay on the big screens at the ground - it showed it to the whole crowd. There's uproar! FIFa are so corrupt.

You're joking Frannie, we wont recover from that for oooh rest of my lifetime I just can't get in to PS at all

Will go and see if you're around...

Hi there 1573

Will try looking back in about an hour

Sorry wasn't around earlier, rotten headache and sore eyes, this dry weather and hay fever from the pollen. Am now hoping the tablets last. Well, what a shocking performance from England in the world cup, how to bring the country's mood down - it was diabolical Am watching Holland play Slovakia right now (supporting Holland as we have a close Dutch friend) and I'm also cheering Ghana on (as the last African side still in the tournament) PS is giving untold problems, I've had the left side thing in FF, now I can't get it to load AT ALL. Grrrr. Got a Playfish message on my FB page, saying they thank people for letting them know, they're 'working on it'

Dream of them winning Frannie, that'll do! Thank you. See you soon cxo

Lyrics ♫It's coming home, It's coming home, It's coming, Football's coming home... Everyone seems to know the score, They've seen it all before, They just know, They're so sure, That England's Gonna throw it away, Gonna blow it away, But know they can play, 'Cause I remember... Three Lions on a shirt, Jules Rimet still gleaming, Thirty years of hurt, Never stopped me dreaming. So many jokes, so many sneers, But all those oh-so-nears, Wear you down, Through the years, But I still see that tackle by Moore, And when Linekar scored, Bobby belting the ball, And Nobby Dancing... Three Lions on a shirt, Jules Rimet still gleaming, Thirty years of hurt, Never stopped me dreaming. It's coming... Three Lions...♫ The names are of some of our famous players. 30 years of hurt refers to us last winning the WC in 1966 (lyrics need upgrading lol) and Jules Rimet? see here The World Cup is a gold trophy that is awarded to the winners of the FIFA World Cup. Since the advent of the World Cup in 1930, two trophies have represented victory: the Jules Rimet Trophy from 1930 to 1970, and the FIFA World Cup Trophy from 1974 to the present day. The trophy, originally named Victory, but later renamed in honour of former FIFA president Jules Rimet, was made of gold plated sterling silver and lapis lazuli and depicted Nike, the Greek goddess of victory. Brazil won the trophy outright in 1970, prompting the commissioning of a replacement. The Jules Rimet Trophy was stolen in 1983 and never recovered. The replacement trophy, the FIFA World Cup Trophy, was first used in 1974. Made of 18 carat gold with a malachite base, it depicts two human figures holding up the Earth. The current holder of the trophy is Italy, winner of the 2006 World Cup. <--- will also need to be updated! There's more on Wiki

Sorry lost my connection there. Thank You, I'll collect the dress later, connection willing. The lion is a symbol in English heraldry, but it's also been adopted as the English football squad motif, as you can see on the football kit, their badge has three lions on it, and the team are known as the three lions - there's even a football supporters song Three Lions on my Shirt! My three lions are blocking the English goal to all comers hence the saucer trick!

Gosh, not long at all to wait! how exciting.

What's the date of that Frannie? I haven't seen anything of Tanya in ages and ages.

LOL, no toast - toast is banned now unless you employ a sweeper movement out to the side of the keyboard Am checking reviews for various hairdryers, figure I have more chance than I do deciding on the England team lol.

By the way, I'm multi tasking, playing at working out the formation we should play this afternoon, and surfing the net for a new hairdryer!

how funny! soul sisters - today we're eating Italian It can be hard to see how the game's going if you can't see all the pitch at once - the offside rule for example. How did it go with the key? ok? mine isn't so bad that I need to do that yet, I have a little brush from a man's electric razor kit, and that does a bit of a clean sweep now and then, or, I turn the laptop upside down, shake and blow lol.

Too bad, but to be fair, I did think the Ghanaians played better football - more instinctive and with more flair. Are you familiar with all the rules Frannie?

No, we just had a brief power cut Frannie! - if that happens this afternoon when the match is on, we'll be in the car, driving like crazy to see where it's been screened in a pub or something. Bad luck on the States going out of the tournament last night. My Q key is sticking, but luckily don't need to make so much use of it How are you?

Morning, don't know what's wrong with my computer. I posted a reply and it hasn't shown, and in PS I've only got half a screen (the left side) so I can't save or anything! Hope you have a lovely day BG - it's wonderful here too. Sorry I can't help Mindy - haven't even looked at the Treasure feature in PS, in fact, have hardly played at all. Speaking of which, despite logging in every day, have really noticed that the lottery's been very mean of late - is it just me, or has everyone found the same?
