The fun and games never stop here. After an afternoon of helping Joe empty furniture and move it out of his room, there's now a pile of ironing waiting for me.

Every now and again I try to find my old school friend, Jo. Last I heard of her she was on Friends Reunited, we made contact and she said she was a scientist working in London. I found her phD online, it was about bacteria (she was fun when I knew her - honest!!). I've tried Facebook, Linkedin, 192.com. I know her family moved to Blackpool and I can find them on the electoral register but their most recent entry (that I can find) is 2007. The obvious person to search for would be her sister, Amy, who was much younger and would be around 33 now so more likely to use social media. She's listed with the rest of the family (including the older brother who'd be late 50s now but minus Jo) but she could've married in the 9 years since 2007 so she most likely has a different surname.

Same with my old friend Clare, from school. For many years she would come 'home' about once a year, from working abroad, my phone would ring and there she was, and we'd meet up for a drink and a chat, then suddenly she stopped. I tried via Friends Reunited, and have tried Facebook, but to no avail. I was worried something might have happened to her, but actually a mutual friend saw her sister in town one day, totally out of the blue, and apparently she is well and happy, so that is something. Hope you find yours xxx

Good to hear that she's okay Kaz, it's quite sad to lose touch though isn't it. One thing that Facebook is good for is putting me in touch with a lot of old school friends. I had a request off someone called Leanne who was quite a close friend when we were younger. It turned out that I'd been saying hello to her most mornings going in and out of school but hadn't recognised her :oops:
In my defence I do have a terrible memory for faces though.

What is the difference between camomile tea and fusion?

The smell :cry: :cry: :shock:

The fusion is sweet and revolting - back to tea, when I can find some :cute: :cute:
