Having returned from a lovely camping trip, we were faced with the news that our house here in Manchester had been broken into whilst we were away. The police were called but didn’t feel it was worth there while coming out to investigate… say no more!!!
My family had done a brilliant job of securing the house and clearing everything up and didn’t tell us until we were on our way home so we still enjoyed our holiday….
My immediate thought on the news was:
And then I remembered my Thought For Today last week and decided that it was time to….
Why let some ‘scroats’ who decided to steal our ‘stuff’ ruin our week!
Possessions can be replaced and thankfully …..
Or maybe I should stop the ‘positive thoughts’ and stick with….
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
WHAT DO YOU THINK…
Should I Keep Smiling
or……
Just Go With the Flow and stick with ‘Oh Bollocks’?…….
I’m really sorry this happened, Wendy 🙁
I know – meanies aren’t they! x
My words might be a little stronger! Hugs x
To be fair – they were when I first found out – yep the air was blue! b**tards!!! haha x
What a shame to come home to that. Sending you hugs.
Thanks so much – it could’ve been a lot worse.. and hey ho – possessions can be replaced can’t they.. happy memories can’t! I very much appreciate that hug though xx
Yeah, definitely Bullocks (except I’d go stronger! ) But life goes on doesn’t it. Keep smiling Wendy.
Thanks Miriam – to be honest it made me realise how lucky I am to have such a great family who all rallied round to sort things out before we got home! Yep – it makes you realise how important our families are and they certainly keep me smiling! x
That’s really nice Wendy. I’m glad to hear that. xo
Thanks Miriam.. How are you?
I’m doing okay, thanks Wendy. Big day trip to Sale yesterday to start sorting out mum’s legal stuff. All takes time and effort but at least I have good support around me.
Oh dear.. I remember it well and it definitely takes time and effort! Thank goodness for the support you have… xx
Most definitely!
xx
Even I would probably say Bollocks, there is nothing worse than having your home violated in this way, the good news, You and your family were not there ! Hope you are fine 🙂 and that you did enjoy your holiday !
Ahhh – thanks! The air was blue but smiling again now… I was glad that we weren’t at home as that must be awful and fortunately my family had cleared up the house so it didn’t feel horrible to come back into. We had a brilliant holiday! xxx
That’s great, have a good evening !
Thanks – you too! x
I’m so sorry you got broken into – that’s just bollocks! But keep smiling, things will get better!
Yep still smiling 😉 and thanks you’re right.. the only way is up 🙌xx
Definitely calls for bollocks. Many times over, I think! Like the beginning of Four Wedding and a Funeral but a different word. Say it, think it, as many times as you want! Glad everyone is ok.
Ahh thanks… yep to be honest the air was pretty blue and definitely matched four weddings (love that film!) 🙌Xx
Oh Bollocks ! 🙂 <3
Yep – exactly! x
Wow…OH bullocks for sure! AND keep smiling that at least you and your family were out of town and didn’t get hurt. BUT, OH Bullocks for sure!
Haha – see even my blogger friends are smiling (and swearing with me) – fab!!
Oh no, I’m sorry to hear that. I would shout “BOLLOCKS” very loudly and possibly add in a rage dance. Hope you are all right : ) x
Fab – I like the idea of the rage dance – doing it RIGHT NOW!!!! Getting it all out of my system. Yep – thanks Samantha we’re absolutely fine although hubby was non too chuffed – they got his bike AND his wedding ring!! not sure which he was most sorry about but I have a distinct feeling it’s the bike. hehe xx
Easy for me to say “keep smiling”……until it happens to me. I’d probably use a stronger word than ‘Bollocks’.
Haha – thanks Larry – if I’m honest ‘Bollocks’ was the polite version for me too! xx
