Hi John

Thanks for the update. We're all still hoping that "The Silents" contact you, because that would be really great. Stop missing calls, incase it's them! Cheers, Sheila

Hi Sheila,

Yeah I know, I very rarely get a missed call because usually you have a bit of time to pick your phone up. But in these couple of occasions the phone only rang for a short period of time, maybe it was just someone realising they had misdialled before the call was answered.

Take care.

John

I can't stand the suspense ! Please please MR or Mrs Silent, as we now call you with affection, lift the phone, we need a happy ending.

Hi MargaretMac,
We do indeed need a happy ending.
Welcome to the forums and hope you'll keep posting.
John I hope that phone is glued to your ear. Cheers, Sheila

Hi Margaretmac,

A big welcome to the Forum, I hope you enjoy coming in and having a chat with all of these fantastic friends on here. I apologise if my post on my guest causes any distress for you, but I know you would have enjoyed a lot of the banter and comical comments posted, especially from Sheila, my comedic partner. She is so funny

Keep Smiling, take care.

Hi Sheila,

My phone is with me every moment, I have been taking it to bed with me as well, never done that before!

Take care,

John

Hi John (partner)
Glad to hear your monitoring your phone 24/7, maybe we could bribe the "Silents" to phone you. This post has over 600 views so we could all chip in a pound and maybe buy the Silents a new suite or something.

I hope you noticed the post I made with the letter to Dear Santa, I meant every word and hope you get your "longing" fulfilled. All the best to you, Ingrid and your family. I would love that amount of Grandkids, but according to my son and daughter it will not be happening, oh well nothing wrong with wishful thinking is there? All the very best Sheila

Hi Sheila,

I most certainly did, I had to leave it sitting right on the screen of my computer for Ingrid to read as I was in no condition to read it to her. She said you are obviously a lovely person to have special thoughts like that, wiping a tear from her eye. She now informs me that she wants to become a Glaswegian and demands to know what instruction she has to undertake to make this happen...WHOOOPS I'm going to have a lot of fun with this....Now what outlandish, devious and advantageous suggestions can I come up with!!! MMMmmm Obviously I'm open to suggestions partner!

Take care.

John

Hi John (partner)
Glad you noticed my letter to Santa.
So Ingrid wants to be a Glaswegian? well bless her cotton socks! Hubby would love to be in that club too. Now you just behave yourself and don't be kidding Ingrid on about Glesga habits or traditions or any other nonsense. Says me who when I met hubby, my friend and I would sit and talk about him and his friends in pure slang, slagging them but all the while smiling like we were saying nice things. It was great fun while it lasted but these days nothing gets past him. As a matter of fact one time in Glasgow he had to translate for me as I couldn't understand what a Glaswegian was saying.
My kids can imitate the accent to a tee, hubby just a wee bit. Can I ask where Ingrid is from? If you don't want to answer in public I understand or you could send me a PM. Please thank Ingrid for her kind words.
Anyway I'm glad my Santa letter touched you as your "longing" post has touched me. Stay positive John, it will happen eventually. (even if we all have to chip in and buy the "Silents" bliddy hoose. ) Bye for now, Sheila
