    1. Re: [TRIVVIES] Anniversary wishes
    2. Jenny Kingsbury
    3. Thanks Dave, Pam and Nicki, for your good wishes. 35 years today. We have had a nice day, David isn't feeling to well at the moment the Doctors have been messing with his tablets and they don't seem to suit him, so he left one off last night on the advice of GP to see if it made a difference. We drove down to Bishop's Lydeard and took the West Somerset steam train down to Minehead. Had lunch and decided to catch the 2.55 panoramic diesel back to Watchet and spend an hour there picking up the steam train again back to BL. But they didn't announce that the diesel was up the far far end of the platform and we were waiting for an announcement and for the train to come in to the platford we had alighted on, when someone said it was going, and we could see it in the distance. About 30 of us missed it. Apparently the driver should have waited to be told to go, but was a bit trigger happy. So the Railway company bought us icecreams or a bottle of water and we went back to the seafront for another hour. Then the Steam 3.50 left late as there was a point failure at Blue Anchor, which they managed to fix quite quickly I thought. Then we were late getting into BL as there were 6 sheep on the line walking in front of the engine. The guards all had to get off and chase them back down the line past the train! Great fun. Even though we missed visiting Watchet we had a lovely day, and could hardly stay awake on the journey back in the train. In fact David dozed off for most of it! Back to work tomorrow. Love Jenny. ----- Original Message ----- From: "david cox" <bigdavecox@ntlworld.com> To: <GEN-TRIVIA-ENG-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 05, 2006 8:15 AM Subject: [TRIVVIES] Anniversary wishes > Happy Anniversary to Jenny and David > > love and hugs > Dave, Pam and Nikki > > > ==== GEN-TRIVIA-ENG Mailing List ==== > RANDOM TAGLINE - GEN-TRIVIA-ENG - MAILING LIST > Gen-Trivia-Eng listers remember Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. > > > > -- > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG Free Edition. > Version: 7.1.394 / Virus Database: 268.8.1/354 - Release Date: 01/06/2006 > >

    1. Reunion Breakfast alternative or Brunch ??
    2. Marlene Cox
    3. Just thought I would share this site with the Reunion Trivvies that will be at the Travel Inn West on Friday night. http://www.burgerstar.co.uk/bs-menu.html This eating place is in Tewkesbury just a few miles up the road from the Inn; as prices go not sure how they compare with the eating place near the Inn. Tewkesbury seems quite a nice place .. 2 Rivers, the Severn and the Avon, Has a History, lovely scenic views, and a Beautiful Abbey the 2nd largest Parish church in England [could be Britain] been a while since I read up on it ..... Sorry I will not be at the Travel Inn they could only let me have the Friday night ... think they have a glut of Trivvies staying there, they did promise me I could have a Saturday if there was a cancellation ... but I got Big D to cancel the Friday booking this afternoon.

    1. Hello
    2. Johno
    3. Hello folks Life goes on much slower than I would like but I am getting used to the fact that my eyes are now deteriorating fairly fast. I was warned by the Consultant that I may lose my sight altogether in the near future. What I do mostly now is to listen to the radio. I have a smallish radio and using headphones so that I don't interfere with anyone else's quietness I am keeping well up to date with things in general. Sorry I cannot write to you very often and send messages personally, but that is that. We are enjoying some beautiful weather and although I don't see a great deal I enjoy the rides out in the car. Cathy is the chauffeur and my eyes when anything crops up. I have been unable to do any gardening for several years but the girls have been able to fill six tubs with annuals. At least I will get the scent of some of them. Most of the rest of the garden is lawn and flowery shrubs etc so tubs are a good idea, especially where there are cats around to hoike out the flowers you have just planted. (We have a smallish band of marauding neighbourhood cats who love to inspect our garden at night and leave their calling cards.) What with them and the hedgehogs sometimes the garden resembles a battle ground. I have enclose a couple of pictures of our spring alliums which Cathy and Mary assure me look lovely and colourful. Cathy keeps me in contact with the list by reading messages out to me sometimes. I often have a good laugh about your doings. I will write to you sometimes to keep you abreast of my progress. A lady from the nursing community association is visiting me on the 16th. I visit a Consultant on the 7th July at the Low Vision Clinic. Whether they can help me I don't know. I hope you are all keeping fit and well and I will write again soon. Cheers Johno

    3. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY Jenny and David. Here are some Anniversary ponderables for your special day. Hope it was GREAT. Jennifer Murphy's First Law for Wives: If you ask your husband to pick up five items at the store and then you add one more as an afterthought, he will forget two of the first five. Adam and Eve had an ideal marriage. He didn't have to hear about all the men she could have married, and she didn't have to hear about the way his mother cooked. In a recent poll, American men and women were asked if they would marry the same person if they had it to do all over again. 80% of the men responded that they would marry the same woman. 50% of the women responded that they would marry the same man. On average, a woman will speak 7000 words over the course of a day while a man will only speak 2000 words in the same period of time. No husband has ever been shot while doing the dishes. The secret of a happy marriage remains a secret (Henny Youngman)
