Janet

Happy birthday, Paula. Have an awesome day.

Aww bless you, thanks for thinking of me. I don't know what last night was all about. I just felt really sad and had an ominous feeling that something was going to happen, but of course nothing did and I feel okay again today.

Thanks again for your message.

Thanks - gotta love purple!

Happy birthday Lexi.

Happy birthday Sarah - have a fab day.

Cute, isn't he!

I like yours too - looks very welcoming. I miss having an open fire - mother-in-law has one and always lights it when we visit!

You're welcome. I *think* I added you on Facebook too - there were two people came up when I put your name in from the Facebook thread on here into the search bit, but I think I got the right one!

Welcome to the Book Club Forum.

Thank you, Diane. It's part of a piece of artwork by an artist called Wassily Kandinsky - I cropped it and added a border.

Did you have a good holiday?

Aww, thanks Nici - and to yours. xx

Congratulations on your engagement, Andrea.

Thanks - it's by a Russian artist called Wassily Kandinsky.

Thanks.

I just wrote the word 'Poppies' into Google Images and it came up and I resized it. I thought it was very pretty.

Thank you. I'm very chuffed and looking forward to reading it.

You're not in trouble! Sorry if it sounded like I was having a go.

It's just that there is only a link to the book on Amazon - nothing written about it. I wondered whether you wanted to give us your thoughts about it.

Happy birthday, Maureen - hope you've had a good day!

Thanks. It's from a few years ago now.

I love yours too - gotta love Pooh bear!

Awww. My son (nearly 14) is now but my daughter would probably dress up as a witch or cat still!

Oh, tricky. Why do you have to decide - is it a new role? I think you should be able to try the job first before you decide, if so.

I was thinking of looking for an office job again now that both children are at secondary (my job at Tesco is not bad, but not something I want to do long-term) but I'm not sure that now is a good time to jump ship - so you have my sympathy.

Hope you manage to come to the right decision for you.

Yes, they're my children - it's a couple of years old but I wanted to get in with the Halloween theme!

Thanks.

Yes, they're my little people - it was taken a couple of years ago when we went to a Halloween party!

Hi Ceinwenn. I did get a cold but unusually (for me), it only lasted a week. Normally they last several and I feel awful so I got away lightly!

How are things with you?

I'll be thinking of you and Angel tomorrow.

Hi Angel. Just wanted to say that I'll be thinking of you and Tiger tomorrow. x

Hi there - and sorry, I must have just missed this! I'm working from home (I have a second job working for a second-hand book shop) and I'm busy registering books on the system for their internet business.

Hope the studying is going well. What are you studying? Forgive me if you've posted somewhere about this already!

And yes, I'm having a good day, thanks. I hope you are too.

Paula, I'm so very, very sorry to read your sad news about your Ma. She was so young, and from what you've said, she fought this so bravely. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

No reply necessary, btw.
