I see it did get a little more serious and actually down to -9C in Shap in Cumbria, so that is cold.Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013060781688432165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667528135627300426.post-71204398615866398422012-02-02T17:47:34.562+02:002012-02-02T17:47:34.562+02:00your sign reminded me of something my son always w...your sign reminded me of something my son always wants us to bring back from Sweden....a chocolate bar called Plop....<br />as for cold...I laughed at your facebook post yesterday re the Guardian and plunging temperatures over here....I know it is colder where you are but we English are like delicate little flowers....Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02735772003412266355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667528135627300426.post-57996971537097542642012-01-31T19:49:20.552+02:002012-01-31T19:49:20.552+02:00Lol I sometimes wonder what we are letting ourselv...Lol I sometimes wonder what we are letting ourselves in for. We wanted some chickens for meat but we think we now have a source of eggs for those, so our money will be stopping in the country but also hopefully be making us some money as well - no pension for us otherwise!Joannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013060781688432165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667528135627300426.post-5682187408671665282012-01-31T15:53:21.042+02:002012-01-31T15:53:21.042+02:00caMy what complicated lives you lead, what with so...caMy what complicated lives you lead, what with software programs to manage growing vegetables etc and micro nutrient deficencies{not sure if I can even spell them}and then to plan to hatch chicken as well. We just wait for a white van to turn up in the village and buy our chicks/PoL birds from Latvian producers and keep the money in the country. make life much more simple Ha ha.TALES FROM UPES IELAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05537718887389086732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667528135627300426.post-51961310158016182712012-01-31T07:15:34.181+02:002012-01-31T07:15:34.181+02:00Hi busybusybeejay.

It is hard not seeing the children as often as we would like but we do keep in touch on a regular basis. Normally our son likes to come and visit but this year he will go and see his sister in Australia instead as they have enough holidays to do that. I felt sad to encourage him and his wife to do that, but I knew it was perhaps the only chance they get. I don't quite know how I will feel when it comes to them having grandchildren though, we might have to rely on Skype moreJoannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08013060781688432165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3667528135627300426.post-64567335613965566132012-01-31T00:11:20.093+02:002012-01-31T00:11:20.093+02:00What a post.Do you think you will ever come back t...What a post.Do you think you will ever come back to the UK?DO you ever see your children?I can't imagine not seeing my children and grandchildren at least 4 or 5 times ayear.busybusybeejayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04570020362062932692noreply@blogger.com
