ReplyPosted : (Thursday 2nd October 2008 ) By - Jenny Hesford (Unregistered User) Hi Michelle, lovely to hear from you, and from Mandy too. You both brought a smile to my face. Do you remember the stop smoking meetings on Wednesday evenings? It is 5 years on the 22nd of this month since I last had a cig - I hope all the others who tried so hard to stop managed to kick it into touch. The cessasion meetings still take place at the Wells centre every Wednesday evening for anyone who still hasn't managed it. It CAN be done, you need to beieve in yourself. I wish I could calculate how much I've saved over the last 5 years but as I smoked 60 a day it must be mega bucks. Can't say I feel any healthier though. but for someone like Ace, who I see has been mentioned a couple of times, it would be wellworthwhile - he had emphasema as I recall.
Anyway it is good to know that some of you still look in from time to time. Michelle I hope you are through the rotten patch you were going through and that your life has settled back to a steady pace with no nasty surprises. You'll make a smashing nana or grandma Michelle. Our JJ will be 4 on November 4th, and every time he comes to see me I am well and truly power rangered! My eldest grandchild is now 18, and the youngest 2. Blimey, I'm getting a bit long in the tooth! Going into hospital soon for an op that might get me up out of my wheelchair, so keep your fingers crossed for me. I'll start to keep an eye on the forums for fresh posts - I still haven't got to grips with it properly yet :)
Jenny

hiya jenny,
am so pleased you remembered me! :-)
it's been just over 5years now too since i quit smoking thanks to the comradeship on here with some of the most sincere ppl ya could wish to meet, and without the eastserve we had back in them days, am sure i wouldn't of quit smokin as easily as i found it! (my memory musta faded, haha!! easy?? ok) it was mid september 2003 when i finally quit :-)
am sure if they all had time n inclination and a tour guide round this forum, those once devoted community members would drop in n say hi from time to time... but you're right jenny, it takes some gettin used to this forum, i ain't got a clue how to get see a full topic (i only bob on from time to time, usually to see local news.. but wudyabelieve...i struggle like mad to actually find it..:-( which makes me give up n go elsewhere) so i must thank you Jenny 'cos you have given me an incentive to look regular on these forums now rather than give it a wide berth!
Just thought i'd mention....it would of been my sisters birthday today, so we've raised a little toast n had a little cry and had lots of laughs about days gone by, just family, as a little rememberance session... i haven't let a day go by when i've not thought of her - and we talk about my sister as often as we can since she left us 6months ago, so theres always a part of her that will stay alive in this life... because she was so cruelly snatched away from us so fast really - but our time together today has helped us get through for now. I hope,.... nope,.... i am sure you will always feel free to speak of and fondly remind us of your fred. I wish i could stay n write more on here bowt my fantastic sister...maybe another day i will...
take care jenny n i look forward to hearin how u got on at the ozzy.. but if you can suss your way round these forums in the meantime chuck... please share with me how to do it.. lol! hope JJ has a brill birthday... gogo power JJ...haha! aww bless!

great to see people posting on here again, lets hope we can get back to having a good old natter and debate on here and less moaning about how bad Ace finds eastserve.

Hiya again peeps, I've been off-line for a while, had to send for help Eastserve to help sort it out. Turns out that my new laptop has a wifi on/off switch that had accidently been pressed! It cost me £25 for them to tell me - not impressed but there you go, it is now a 'propa' Council buisiness and not a community site (more's the pity)Anyway, moan over. It's really good to hear from friends from 5 years ago, had to believe so much time has passed. My life has changed beyond recognition - I too lost my darlin' sister, and six months later my beloved brother. I miss them more than I can say. I try to be positive and just hope that in a few months time I will be able to walk again. I might even get a bit of life, who knows.
I'm still finding it difficult to navigate around this forum. It took me ages to find the 'reply' button, I was looking at the left of the screen where it lists all the'Council' forums. That isn't much use if you just want to natter to a few old mates ha ha. Anyway, I've waffled enough, but I will keep popping in, so any other of the old gang see us do join in. Jenny
