Well tomorrow we head off to Ireland. There till friday.
If I remember rightly they have some wifi signal in the hotel so will try and let you all know we arrived safely..
Some of you already know that I'm determined to make it up 'the hill' lol.. With any luck I will manage.
I'll be on later to say adieu..

Hope you have a lovely time Tony. I do remember you struggled with that hill last year, hopefully it will be easier this time.

Heathcliffe, It's meeeeeee, your Catheeeeee, - whoops! Wrong song, sorry. :oops:
Have a good trip mate, I hope those pesky knees behave and that yes, you do get up the hill (even if it's not achieved by running up said object). DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this. Eddie Braben0 -
Thank you ya crazy bunch...
I'll try n make ya proud, lol
If I can I'll get some photos from the top of the hill.
It will be tuesday we attempt to climb the beast.. It is her Dad's birthday then.
I'm just having a rest, I'm in pain, knees are sore, another day of doing too much plus the rain ain't helping. It's still the OA pain bothering the knees.. :roll:
Right folks.. Must vac up.

It hardly seems possible that a year has gone by since you last went to Ireland, Tony. I've still got all the photos from then, but hope to receive some more from this year's trip. It's a beautiful area to visit.
I hope that your knees will behave a bit better and that you and Janet will have a good trip. I know that you will get to the top of that hill.
Thinking of you both

Joan, it will be a year in April, that's the actual anniversary of spreading the ashes, we couldn't get the trip on the right date sadly so we are going on his birthday
Don't worry though, there will be photos hun. Thanks
We've just had some bad news.. Our friend and neighbour John has had a heart attack, the ambulance are taking him to the LGI right now. I just hope he's gonna be ok..

Hi Tony,
I'm so sorry to hear about your neighbour, thank goodness they've got him to hospital and had a stent put in place so quickly, what a worrying time for him and his family and friends. I just wanted to wish you a lovely trip to Emerald isle, i know you want to climb the hill for your father in law, but the very fact you and Janet are there for his birthday honouring his memory would have meant so much to him I'm sure.
Hopefully (as long as i dont flare) hubby,boys and me are going 'back home' for Easter and can't wait, we're staying with my family in Wesport Co Mayo.
Well, I'm sure that you'll all have the craic, and I'm sending you positive vibes for climbing the hill.
I hope it's good news for your neighbour, I know it really does make a big difference by getting to hospital quickly, he's in the best place.
Here's a few hugs for you and Janet (((()))) Xxx'grá agus solas'

Hope yr friend is ok.
Take care dear friend and love to Janet.Clare xx0 -
Thank you Poppy, Clare.. Xx
I'm tired already.. Been up since five..
Got my diazepam at the ready for the coach trip. Most unbearable otherwise.
No more news on John as yet but I'm taking that as a good thing..
Thanks for your kind thoughts everyone.
Catch you all later on..Me-Tony

Hope neighbour is on the mend..

He sent me a message a little while ago saying he was having an over-priced cuppa at some motorway services and that the traffic was bad - there was some snow over the moors. His neighbour is kinda OK, he's had three stents inserted into two blocked arteries. He is in ICU for the next 24 hours or so. DDHave you got the despatches? No, I always walk like this.

Sorry to hear about your neighbour tony, I hope he has improved and is comfortable today.
Hope your journey is going ok.
Have a good few days
Love Juliepf x0 -
Hi all. Safely at the hotel but the wifi seems sparodic to say the least. Lol
Colin, we are in enniscorthy, wexford in the south. Luckily we are half board cos we don't have half a million euros to feed ourselves fully. Lol
Just had tea, food is outstanding as usual.. Room great too.. Queen sized bed that's very comfortable.. And a bath so I can have a soak.. Lol
Only have a shower at home now.
Tomorrow we will attempt going up the hill. Some of Janet's Dad's childhood friends are meeting us at the hotel so we will have a lift to the carpark 3/4 of the way up the hill. The rest will be attempted with sherpas and trained polar bears. Lol
Julie, my neighbour had three stents put in, one of them failed late last night so he was rushed down to the cath lab again to put a larger one in. he's doing ok, very tired if course.
Thanks for asking hun.
Lets see if this will actually post now. I may have to hang out of the window with one sock rolled down, a hairbrush in one hand, phone in the other singing hallelujah, praise the phone gods.
Lol
I hope that all are alright..
Well attempt to post more if I can keep my calm with this frustration. HahaMe-Tony

Hi Tony
I'm sure that you've climbed that hill by now. You'd do it by will-power alone, knowing you
I'm really sorry to hear about your neighbour, and I hope that he will make a good recovery.0 -
Oh Tony Im so sorry I missed the bit about your neighbour, I do hope they get him sorted.
Hopefully you have done your climb by now, and your knees are behaving...hairbrush and one sock down...you daft begger...now be careful hanging out the window...xxLove
