Hi Martin,
thanks so much for commenting....any friend of Claires is a friend of mine....and I have made a few already....keep up the good work!! I am really enjoying myself in here.....
My reason for joining the site is the same as you, I have a friend who suffers from alopecia universalis too.
Hi Martin, I wanted to welcome you to Alopecia World. I can honestly say that we are a great community here and I hope you enjoy the time you spend with us. Cheryl, co-founder
Hey Martin,
No Worries and thanks for stopping by. I'm glad you are both here.
All is good with me. The weather is lovely and we are headed out for some sunshine
Hi Martin,
Just logged on and saw your message. Thanks so much.
Claire is absolutely great and what a hoot!! I just laugh, and laugh while I am with her. We walk our dogs all together in the local park. They are great buddies.
I am well, as I hope this finds you. Take care.
I can't believe she told you that. She is absolutely barmy isnt she. Yep, we are getting taken away quite soon. We went and saw the ranger today and explained to him, its a laugh isnt it. I tell you that old fruit bat was a rude arrogant old woman, puts all pensioners to shame. How rude. I have never had anyone talk to me the way she did us the day before yesterday.
Did Claire tell you though, we saw her arrive at the park yesterday when we were sitting down with the dogs, she was in the distance, and I shouted 'Yoohoo' You alright?' and would you believe she waved us back...what a laugh. I am sure she didnt know who we were for a little while til she clocked Claires bandana.......we roared at this.....You gotta laugh havent you?
I meant to say earlier I have had a great day thank you, I always do, especially when I meet up with Claire, except today I lost my glasses.....I know dont ask. I had on my sunglasses, and my glasses tucked over my t-shirt and I ...........lost them......god knows how much a new pair will cost. I went back to have a look where they could have been dropped but no luck. I only have sunglasses now, its going to be awful going to work and having to wear them there..til I get my new ones.
Yes.......I locked my keys in the car too....I am such a barmy mare, I would forget my head if it was loose. I often lock myself out of the house too. Its happened dozens of times, luckily my neighbour has a set of keys, but she doesnt get up til late, and I have been stuck in my porch from 6.30am til about 10am on occasions, when she eventually opens her curtains, and I run over and get them.
Hi Martin,
Just thought I would pop in and say Hello.
I heard about your night out with Claire on Friday, I bet it was a hoot......she is so funny.....when I am with her I laugh all the time. I bet it was a great night out for the two of you and you both didnt get home til 2.30........it must have been a good one.
By the way, we see the old fruit bat most days.....but only in the distance....
Hi Martin,
Thanks so much for your message, and sorry I didnt get back to you sooner, what with my son on here all day and night, its hard to grab a minute.
My weekend was great. I went to a christening yesterday, in Henley in Arden. It was beautiful, its nice to catch up with family. The weather was gorgeous too, so that made it even more special.
I missed my walk in the park yesterday with Claire and the gang, and I dont think I will see her for a week, as Henry has to have an operation on his eye, which I assume you know about. So I will miss the banter, she has me in stitches most days I can tell you, I come home and I am worn out with laughing. She is a great does of medicine.
I havent seen the fruit bat for a few days now, but she avoids us when she does. I cant stand old people like that, so I would avoid her myself.
Anyway Martin, I am off now, so take care. Be good. Ta-ra. J. x
Hi Martin,
Hope you are well, and having a good weekend...
You should have called your cats Vodka and Tonic, but I love their names anyway. I had a cat years ago, and have never had another one. I loved our Patches. But I have Knute now, and she hates cats, she is forever chasing them away when they are in the garden.
Hope y ou have a good night out, Claire mentioned she might be going out with you tonight......... I am sure you will both laugh the night away.
Anyway Martin, gotta go and finish the ironing, mores the pity, so cheerio til next time, take care of yourself.
Joan. xx
Hi Martin
Great to hear from you again so soon.
Many thanks for your email and telling me how to upload the music. I havent any time to do it before work, but when I get back I will tell you how successful it was. Thanks sooooooo much.!!!!!
Its great you adopted your cats from the protection league, I admire people who give pets good homes, as they must need them.
Its great to see you and Claire be so good friends. She is very special. I have a few male friends too, but not as good as you seem to be, always there at the end of a phone call and at the ready to go out for a drink with your pal. She mentioned the meal too, hope it was great, and you both stuffed yourselves. Where did you go? you lucky pair.
Your cats sound super, I bet they give you lots of fun, they sound that they do anyway.
Sorry to hear about your accident, Claire was telling me yesterday what had happened, and that you are all in one piece. She mentioned she is picking you up from work too, thats great mates for you eh?
Anyway, Martin, short and sweet, gotta run and get ready to go to work. Will write to you later, and let you know how I got on.(with the music)
Hope your weekend was good, and have a good day.
Love. Joan. xx
I did it!!!!!!!
I am so chuffed. I had a look at the music before I left here, and hey presto, 'add to my page' and they you go.!!!!! Its actually on my page..........I am not as stupid as I look eh???
MANY MANY THANKS MARTIN, YOU'RE A GOOD FRIEND.
thank you thank you thank you.........
Hi there Martin,
Hope you had a good day, and Claire got you home in one piece. I am meeting her in about 20 minutes.....so have gotta rush.
I am going to have to give you a list of music.......when I can remember the artists....mind you, there is one I love.....Woodstock....by Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young....thats one I love.....brings back old memories....you know us old ones..we like to reminisce. The good old days eh? I was so excited when I came on my page, and the music was actually playing.......love it.
So take care til I speak to you again.
Love. JoAN. XX
Hi Martin,
me again. Just been to the park, and saw Claire. She said you were at the Bon Jovi concert.......how was it......brilliant I guess.
Hope you're ok. Take care.
Love. Joan. x
Hi Martin,
I got so excited yesterday, when I saw u had downloaded the song I forgot to leave a message.......oops...
Yeah, 3 hours at the park....you would wonder what we get up to there...but its great chatting and meeting people...we really do have fun there.
You never mentioned the concert you were at last week...Bon Jovi...wow...I bet it was great..I heard all about it on the radio...the last group I saw were the Eagles, and before that Pink Floyd...way, way, way back when!!!!!!.
Anyway, I hope you are well, and thank you so much again for the CSNY music...I am really greatful.
Hows your car? Have you got it back yet? or are you still driving the hire car...
Take care Martin and have a great day.
Joan. xx
P.S.
Just thought about a song I once knew.......White Rabbit by Grace Slick (Jefferson Airplane)...brings back all sorts of memories.....th good old days...if you could find it....I would be really greatful......pleeeeeeez
Hi Martin,
It only seems its me that writes to you these days, you must be sick of my babbling on.....but its something to do and I enjoy it.
Anyways, how are you, hoping you are well. How are you now since the accident, is everything going ok? Have you got your car back or are you still driving the 'hire car'.
Its going to be a hot day today, so windows down, let your hair blow in the wind, and keep cool. Yesterday was lovely, but the wind, it wasnt as hot as I thought, except in the car - like an oven,
I looked like a cooked turkey when I got home from work, as I dont have air-con.
ANyway, Martin, hope you are well, and that you enjoyed the Bon Jovi concert....I think he is lovely looking....but I am a lady and am allowed to say that....
So take care, Lots of love,
Joan. x
While I think about it, if you have the time, 'Hotel California', by the Eagles, is another favourite of mine. I would love you to find it for me. I like the new 'Duffy' song....but I cant remember the title.....and 'Island in the stream'.....Dolly Pardon and someone else singing (I think)??????? Thanks Martin....xxx
Hi Martin,
Hows things. I have spoken and seen Claire these last few days and she seems to be holding her own in the circumstances. Still very upset of course, but it will take a long time before she heals. bless her.
Hope you have a good weekend, and that you behave yourself. I remembered the Duffy song.....Mercy i think its called.
anyway take care, hope to see you at the park one of these days. Love, Joan. x
Hi Martin,
Its been an age since I was over and for that I am sorry. How are you and your lovely cats??? well, I hope...
Up at the park most days with Claire, and her dogs. Jack has settled with her marvellously, its as though she has had him with her for ages. It has helped Claire, no end, she is a much happier girl. Its given her something to focus on.
Well, what about her hair growth, great news isnt it? But yesterday, she said she had showered and her eyebrows disappeared - so she says dont hold your breath....It would be such a shame to have her lose her hair now, after all this time.
She goes around now without her bandanas. I think thats a very brave thing for her to do, but she is very comfortable with the way she is, and I admire her loads for it. Yeah, she is a girl with spirit alright.
Anyway Martin, I am late for work, so I am off now, take care. Look after yoursel.
Joan. x
