When is Paige due back here anyone?...

ps...Wonder if my friend is still my friend?..

Not sure when she is due back. I thought as they were crossing the country they were going to be visiting family and friends. Maybe she will miss us and check in at some point!

Bye the way, how are things on your side of the pond. Are you still drowning in your own back yard? Hope all is well.

Trapped man dies amid flood chaos


The man who has died in Hull had become trapped in neck-deep water when he went to help his grandfather clear a flooded drain in the Hessle area.

Glenn Ramsden, from Humberside Fire and Rescue Service, said the man slipped and got his foot caught in a metal grate.

Rescuers, including police divers, spent several hours battling to free the man, thought to be his 20s, but were unable to save him.

Severe weather: Your pictures

Mr Ramsden said: "It's been an absolutely desperate operation to save this man, but at the end of the day we couldn't do it."

That is horrible!! Poor thing. Is this weather normal for you at this time of year or is this a freak thing?

 

[A fat english gent]

"Freak thing"...Yes we have **** weather but normally never anything like what were getting right now day after day of HEAVY rain, hence we never go on holiday over here always abroad were your almost guaranteed the sunshine and rarely get bad weather in the high summer.....

ps...Ever come over here bring a bloody good pack-a-mack....you'll need it....

 

[oybolshoi]

Didn't Wimbledon start today? I thought there was some kind of law that you guys had to have crappy weather during the tournament...lots of washouts and all that good stuff.

BTW, I'll be your friend if you go make a funny comment on the food porn thread. Jay is guaranteed to see any comments you may make there!

Wadds is about a good hour from me,one of our oldest air bases from where we bombed Berlin to bits during WW2...Home now to some airborne intelligence squadron we call "the flying spooks" and some special ops training program...

Scott here, thanks. We were eating at an air base that is now a public airport. They still use it for training purposes. We happened to look over and there were 3 piliots eating. Our little one went up and said hi, and asked if they flew plans. The three of them stopped eating and talked with her for about 10 minutes. I went over and introduced our family and talked for a little bit. After they were done one of the chaps pulled a patch off of his flight suit and gave it to Mackenzie. So now she has a flight patch from the RAF. They were all from Wadds, and on there way back that afternoon. Just out here for a week or so on flight simulators. Many of us in America take for granted our own military, but everone should stop and thank those that fight and train along side eachother also. This was something we will never forget and we thanked them for everything they have done.

AFEG... you're too funny!


PS. just had an email from Jason - he's looking for authentic minie balls for his Civil War musket...hmmmmmm.

Scott here,
To you Cass on the house bull****. Hang in there.

Sorry about last night, Hopefully tonight. And as for sleep, I have a motto, whats a motto? Nothing whats a motto with you?

"Sleep is not an option"

With a night job, 3 times through the infant phase, I wish I knew what sleep was.

 

[MinnMick01]

I just wanted to say I love my wife . She was out with little one and brought me back lunch. Thank you love

And bagels.

 

[goofyfreak]

Missy, just got home and starting supper. i promise I won't tell Renee that you got 1 hour overtime DISsing!!!!
You're secret is safe with me. How did swimming lessons go?

 

[goofyfreak]

Mine and Missy's boss is going on a Disney cruise in September and could book her excursions yesterday. She couldn't do it online because it kept telling her the site was too busy, try in a few minutes. She tried all day yesterday and part of today. She finally called the cruise line and they wrote everything down she wanted and told her they would contact the cruise excursion office. They called her back a couple of hours later and told her everything good for her excursions. She was very frustrated with the website and told them so. They said they would relay the message to someone. I hope this does not happen to any of us.

OMG, I just got back from the passport office...took me 4 hours from start to finish!!

My photo was rejected at the screening process since my teeth were showing Why didn't the dude who took the photo TELL ME, hey chick, close your mouth! But because the line-up was so darn long, I had time to run down a couple of blocks and retake my photo, mouth closed! So then I go back to the screeners so they can check my new photo, looks good...then she peeks at Kira's photo and says "Oh no, that will be rejected!!"



Pardonnez-moi????????

I said I just came through here and the other lady said it was just fine! She said Fine, if you want to wait and see but I'm positive that they will reject it! So I wait till my number is called, fearing the worse, cus I DON'T want to do this again....3 hours and 50 minutes later....it was fine...he just asked about the rash on her cheek and that was it!

WHEW!!!!!!!!

So, we should have them in 3-4 weeks, just in time for the DCL passport deadline of August 5th!!!!

Congratulations! - any photos? How come you got baptized as an adult? I havent been christened either.

I guess my father in law took some, but I have not seen them yet. I was never baptized as a kid because I am adopted and my father was catholic and my mother was lutheran so they decided that when I was an adult I could decided what I wanted to do for myself. So I finally made that decision. I think a lot of what happened with my mother helped me make the plung.
