That's great Sandra bet you can't wait.I could just eat that lunch yummmm.

Ooooh San i can feel your excitement :) enjoy your 2 hours with Joe it will keep you going untill you see him again XXX

What a lovely surprise for you,San...and I bet they all enjoyed their lunch..nothing like mum's cooking is there?
A fleeting visit is better than none,so hope you all had a nice time together...I can see that it had made your day.:o))x

Sandra i'm so pleased he's coming to see you hope you all have a lovely time, its funny how it feels when your youngest leave home, even when they only are at uni it feels like they have left does'nt it. Enjoy x

Hi Sandra..
know you will enjoy seeing Joe...
Have a great time :o))) xxx

thanx to you all for your comments, joe has gone now and went so fast being a couple of hours, he wanted to quickly pop in and see his dad to, then him and Dan had to go back to burnley to pick Dan`s girlfriend up from his mums, then long trip back to Lampeter to get their essays finished for the morning haha. so packed them some sandwiches for the trip.
lots of hugs and doesnt look like i will see him for more than one day before going to jersey now unless something changes, oh well.
im sure he is getting taller haha, im 5ft 10 and he towers over me now, must be about 6ft 3 and georgous with it :o)))thanx again xx

That's good you had some precious time together..

You'll have to make the Joecool painting taller ;o) Lol...

Pleased you had a good time with Joe San.....

thanx Terra lol, good idea haha :o)) x
cheers sue, his dad laughed and said i was a softy when i text to say how i felt about missing joe :o)) x

That must have been a lovely surprise for you, San ... I bet you'll remember every moment ... and you just know that Joe will ring you on Christmas Day ... when he eventually wakes up from the night before! ... :o)))

thanx shirley was lovely and he said he will call me xmas day, but im sure he will be having a few xmas eve lol, his cousins cant wait for him to get there :o))

So pleased you managed to have that time with your son, Sanbaz. I can understand how pleased you must have been to see him and sounds as if he has gone off very well fed :)

I am not getting Christopher home at all for Christmas, he has a job in a large department store in Aberdeen,which start's it sale early on Boxing day, so it will be just a phone call for me, I do have his three brothers here though, but he will be such a miss :-(

cheers Gee, yes well fed as always, his friend didnt eat much but joe had warned me he doesnt eat much and is picky lol, but he ate chicken and baked spud, no salad tut tut haha, told joe to text me when back, such a long way back to lampeter.

mavis so sorry chris is able to come home but am glad you have your other lads with you, bet chris will miss being with the family as much as you miss him, its hard though isnt it x

glad you got an extra day this dec. writing essays for tomorrow sounds very familiar ;o)
Elizabeths flat mates tend to leave things to the last minute, she is more 'get it done straight away' and then tinker with it if she needs too.

the sandwiches will be very welcome wont they.

thanx sea... joe is normally on the ball to like elizebeth, think the knock he had with the hockey ball did something to his brain lol,
iv just text him and still in burnley at Dan`s, wont get back till after midnight now, anyway joe said his essay not to be in tomorrow thats just Dan, so im relieved to hear that.
bet he has ate the sandwiches by now .

Thank's Sanbaz, I was worried in case he would be on his own on Christmas day but one of his flat mate's is working as well so he will have some company.

that must make you feel better mavis, i know it would me, hope one of them can cook lol, maybe send then two ready meal turkey dinners, and two mini xmas puds :o)))

Hi Sanbaz I bet you were on cloud nine,what a wonderful day for you :)

There,s a thought Sanbaz but I suppose a pub lunch is on the card's for them, let's hope they don't get too sozzeld to go to work!

So pleased for you San......I know how you love your boy....

Thats wonderful news for you San , I'm so pleased :o))

hi sue it was nice to see him but feel a bit down today, think its because it was to short a visit and wont have much time before he goes away at xmas, got to buck up lol
Mavis pub lunch`s will be over the top xmas day, they cash in on it, so im guessing they will make something after work, im sure they will be fine though, but as mums we worry dont we x
thanx Dotty and Amy, i love him so much it hurts at times, silly i know but having one who is a constant worry i so love seing joe as he brightens my day, dont get me wrong i love johnny to but his life is far from perfect affraid to say, so did some painting today to keep my mind busy which helps.
joe got back ok and busy doing essay today :o))

I'm pleased you saw him sandra, even if it was for a short while. Pitty about Christmas - it's going to be strange for you this year ... but it's difficult to spread yourself around everyone, so some have to go without for a while. But it doesn't mean you're not loved :o)

aw,that's a nice thing to say,Hywel..I'm sure San will think so too.:o)

Glad you got to see Joe ......does he like his portrait???? You will just have to sit it at the table on Christmas Day.

awww thankyou hywel, thinking of what you said makes me feel better, your right i know he loves me as im told every time we speak and every time we text eachother :o))) x
sandra i do think so and iv calmed down today, been to art and more relaxed now :o))
Hi Linda lol great idea, im going to do that now haha, he loved the painting so its in his room as no wall space left at his dwelling place :o))

I was going to say San I could feel your excitement from here, and why not...so glad you all had a lovely time together, and they've gone off happy, tummys full, and contented....just look forward to the next visit...and all those texts, lol...x

thanx sue it was lovely and hopefully will be home next week for a few days before heading off to jersey for xmas,
its all texting as he is never in haha :o)) x

Well for sure you have contact all the time :)))

thats so true, modern living sue, isnt it great and they have no excuse not to be in touch lol
