Has anyone got one? and if so can you please tell me how the shampooing bit works, I have managed to soak all carpets and not a drop has been sucked up. My main confusion is do I have to switch between showering water, and sucking up in the same operation? I too scared to try it in case it blows up! Easy instructions please and thank you.

A bit of a coincidence Streisand is singing at the moment. Get it!!?

Robinia, hi. If you are in a place where you can read this: I thought about writing you an email asking you to just report in again even if you didn't elaborate any further, but I don't really want to add any extra pressure to whatever kind of distress it is that you are in. We all know you wouldn't keep us dangling without good reason and that's what makes it so worrying. Just know how much we love you and miss your presence here and look forward to seeing you again when it's possible for you to join us.

To all the rest of you: I know we are all holding our breath. Please let's direct some good, strong energies each other's way as well while we're waiting and wondering.

Here's my email address again if you want to share any thoughts or information that you feel should not go onto the site.

[email protected]

Please note the added letter t, to my alias. Those of you who already have my addy filed might also want to check what ending you have down after the 'yahoo' - I've recently discovered that I've given out my address incorrectly here and there. It should end with se for Sweden.

Okay, I'm off to drink a farewell cuppa with my friends and see them off at the train station. I'll check in again in a couple of hours, before I go home. (Jude, thanks for the music. Unpredictable choice, I'm sure!)

[Robinia]

stop panicking I'm here! no, neti take that card out of the phone box, you won't be needing to replacement....& I'll sort you out later for calling me a scrubber.

I was literally at the closet door on Fri when the phone rang to say my brother had been rushed to hospital (he's in a res. home, as most of you know, due to Parkinson's).
He'd developed a sudden fever & had a convulsion which seems to have been caused by a urinary infection which went into the bloodstream. Many hrs at hospital (horrible big place) & was grim, they were asking us what to do about resuss if it came to that etc....
However the anti-bio's have got it under control & the main problem now is low blood pressure, but fingers crossed he'll be ok.

Gawd, I'm crackered & had a massive migraine all night, not helped by this wild weather...it's awful.

Anyway, thank you all for all the kind words - I left the short message so you'd know I was here but not here, if you know what I mean.

gonna have a nice quiet afternoon, I hope ....been invaded this morning & now have more flowers than vases....

whispers btw, did I miss any good punch-ups?...hehe

[Jude123]

HI Robinia I am pleased you are alright and I wish the best for your brother. I wasn't sure what was the matter and assumed that you weren't very well. I am lucky and have never suffered with migraines, but my Dad used to get 'flashes' and he said they were migraine.
Hi Kit while I love Rock and Roll I also like all sorts of music, including Andrea Bocelli, Bon Jovi, Frank Sinatra, Led Zep. Nora Jones, Bob Dylan, Katie Melua, Elvis and I could go on but wont bore you all. Happy Mother's Day to all you Mums out there. See you later :o)

[netibiza]

Hello everyone - Robinia glad you are OK and are up to your scrubber's duties. Hope your bro-in-law is recovering. Like jude I've nevered suffered from migraines or headaches (only the wine bottle type) No not being hit on the head with it!!

My poor bro-in-law in slowly dying now, and he is very uncomfortable. Macmillian nurses are going in to see him, but he can't eat much and is wasting away. The holiday to India really didn't do him much good and he's been ill ever since returning a few weeks ago.

On a brighter note, I'm glad we are all here and most of us are feeling fine. All take care, as we are a precious bunch. x

[DaSwede]

Yay Robinia, I'm seriously wagging sections 10, 11 and 22!

I'm sorry to hear that your brother is going through such a hard time, still glad that you're okay yourself. You have never not been here (in my experience.) Don't want to be a drama queen but it was quite worrying you know.

So sorry to hear about your brother in law, too, Neti. It's tough.

Eurovision Song Contest: Britain, we're a-gonna whop your imperial a s s e s like they've never been whopped before. We have a great song and a great band!

love it love it LOVE it

Okay, going home now, no more drama. See you soon!

[netibiza]

Yes Kit that is super.
jude you can rock around the house with that song.

No idea what song Spain has.

[Robinia]

bonsoir...it's nice to see you, to see you...nice. (can't stand Bruce Forsyth tho')

<blows raspberry at Sweden>...all I can say is Diggiloo Diggeley.......?!
they should have asked Vincent & the Biddettes (no, not bidets) do do a turn....Boom - Bang- a- Puppetulations on a G-string.

Keep warm xx

[netibiza]

Morning <b<shaney and everyone, Snow??? ahem it's warm and sunny here, although it is supposd to be getting colder. Daughter driving us all nuts. It's Father's Day over here, but not sure if it's a fiesta (bank holiday) or not, will find out when I pop out for coffee.

Once daughter arises from her bed, the computer will be fully occupied, so I'll just pop in and out when ever it's free, and I can clear all her gump and chat off the screen. �Til then my hearties - take care Oh and if there's any spare water, like Dolly we are in desperate need over on this island, thet are starting to desalinate the sea water, but it tastes disgusting, and thefields and gold course are being water with recycled water (phew) and it can humm a bit in the heat!

[netibiza]

Oh dear sorry about the mistakes, I forgot to preview.

[netibiza]

It's always the same - when I answer a thread, it kills it dead!!!

♫♫"Where are you now - my loves?"♫♫

[B00]

hello, just popping in whooooooooooosh, so sorry to hear about your brother robinia,/b> and your BIL neti.

And ey up Neti I've seen you post on t'other side, well ok, I've seen A post there, lol. Ain't defecting are ya???

Love to everyone, gotta go....Mini Boo is demanding noodles for dinner whilst watching The Wiggles :-( I've told her it's about time she grew up and stopped sponging off us now, done it for long enough, she just laughs at me.....ahhhh...well!

[B00]

Oh 'eck, sorry 'bout the bold text.....

[netibiza]

Nah BOO just got bored one day and joined everything that would have me (on some of them I have to wear rubber and hold a whip). I still stand by my other posting - she is a bit strange. Forgot that you have a teen BOO also, aren't they awful? Mine's just come back from 6 months in Barcelona, and all she's learned is to fold her p.j's!! Still lolls around the house (if she's, like yours, not flat out on someone's carpet) doing not a lot. Driving me crazy!!

[B00]

No ya daft bu88er! I was referring to Mini Boo!! ;-) She's been sponging off us for 26 months now, 'bout time she started contributing to the household, rofl! As for Teen Boo, I try not to talk about her, as it's not good for my blood pressure (grrrrr,snap snarl!)

Can see where ya coming from re t'other thing, but I can't help but like said person, and I wasn't impressed how the mob descended in there to have a go so to speak, so I waded in....lol.

[netibiza]

I actually quite like them, but am wary, very wary and am not sure who they really are, they are very controversial! I was referring to your comments on other site saying teen BOO had given you a bottle of Baileys - Do keep up BOO do keep up dear. You'll be an old biddy before your time otherwise.
