I guess its an age thing ! when I went to the over sixties club for the first time last month ,I was invited to go on a couple of trips....a trip to Oakham (in Rutland)and also on a mystery trip ....well I'm very sorry to all of you ,who waved me off to Oakham ,We actually went on the mystery trip yesterday !!Durrrr.. I'm not safe to be out on my own ! I can only assume it was all those games of Bingo that blew my mind ,well thats my excuse anyway ! I wont tell you about it today ,because I have some pictures I took and havent sorted them out yet....any way have to save something for next week in case I dry up ,I have just been getting some moral support from my dear chum Ally ,I told her I just hope the butterflys in my tummy ,morph into ideas .If I do get stuck and have to resort to previous entrys I am relying on you , all my good friends ,to pretend you hadnt heard it all before ,and act accordingly.. lol.. you know act all surprised !! Or would that be cheating ? Oh well I'm going to try not to worry about it ,in a fortnight from now it will all be over and a hundred years from now it wont matter anyway .I feel I owe it to you ,though to tell you the mystery trip ended up in a charming little village/town ? in Essex,called Finchingfield.
Apparently my entry went wide again yesterday if that is the case today dont forget to.. click onto link to entry at the bottom of the page..and hopefully you will be able to read ,without to borrow a quote from Joan stranny dayze,'getting a tennis neck'
My Thanks as ever to Donna for her lovely graphics today ....with Love and have a good weekend From ...

It must have been the Bingo that blew your mind ~ you don't like Bingo lol ~ you can reply on us Jan ~ but knowing you you won't have to resort to old entries ~ Finchingfield ~ would like to know more about your mystery trip I havn't been on one of those for ages ~ and looking forward to seeing the pictures you took ~ Ally
Hiya, you can use as many quotes as you like!!!!! And I won't bat an eyelid with regard to you repeating yourself, lol!!! Don't talk to me about mystery trips! Went away many years ago (20 yrs) when I first moved to Kettering and went on a mystery trip from the seaside resort where we were staying......guess where we ended up?.........Wicksteed Park, lol!!!!
Looking forward to seeing the pics. Glad you had a good day yesterday wherever you ended up!!
;o))
Oh, Aunty Jan! We certainly can't let you out on your own can we?!! I hope the weather was good in Finchingfield and you all had a good time. Betcha didn't fall over twice like me on my day out yesterday!! Of course we'll pretend we haven't heard your entries before if you dry up. I can't imagine you to ever be lost for words though! Have a great weekend. Jeannette xx
I know Finchingfield, it's about 20/30 minutes from me. It won an award some years ago for being the prettiest village in Essex. Look forward to hearing how you enjoyed it. B. x
Finchingfield sounds interesting. I look forward to hearing about it. Calm the butterflies down Jan you will be fine. Great graphics again. Eve ( I know someone who lives in Oakham.)
Don't worry Jan, my brain is a permanent sieve and I've still got nearly one year to go before the Six Oh! Take care.

I know what you mean when you say you run out of things to say, or feel like you need to run an old entry. That happens to me too, but usually, once I start to type about something, the words just flow!
I always enjoy reading your journal, Jan..
Can't wait to see the pictures!
