 This week the words are 'Some people say their body is a temple. Mine is a bouncy castle.

As usual Abigail is complaining to her fiend Cathy that is is fed up with going on a diet and not loosing any weight. 

"It's probably because you only do them for about a week and  the go onto another one. It's a big triumph for you if you loose1lb, that's not going to get you anywhere. You either have to stick to one good diet or do some exercises and eat sensibly, then you might loose some weight". Cathy replied.

"You know I don't do exercise, but I suppose I could do something about my diet "Abigail mumbled.

"Please try, or I will get fed up with you grumbling all the time. Cathy said.

Ok, some people say their body is a temple,. Mine is a bouncy castle" replied Abigail.

They both laughed at that.

 This week the words are 'I've been accepted into hell on a full scholarship'                                              The background is a mix of two stencils that I wiped clean with a wet wipe onto a clean page I then used some similar colours to over up the white of the page that was left.

Gina and her friend Shelly were together in Gina's house discussing the results of their choices for university. Gina had put two top universities as her first two choices, and on the suggestion of her headmistress  the third was one she hadn't even considered as she didn't think it was any good.

Shelly was less ambitious and had three reasonable choices on her list, they all suited the subjects she wanted to study and was pleased she had been accepted for her first choice.

"Well how did you on, which one are you going to" asked Shelly

"I was hoping you weren't going to ask me, I'm rally disappointed." replied Gina.

Well you didn't do as well with your exams as you had hoped" said Shelly.

"No that's the problem, my first two choices wanted three A's and as I ended up with an A, a B, and a C I've been accepted into hell on a full scholarship" Gina grumbled.

"OH" exclaimed Shelly, not knowing what else to say to her friend.

 The words this week are 'I'm hosting an anti-social party. No one is invited.                                

   A short one this week as my computer is still driving me nuts as I am having trouble loading my picture, it took me one and a half hours this time. 

Martha was feeling very down, the weather, her friends, her job, in fact anything she could think of.  Her cousin Rosalind had come round to see her and was doing her best to cheer her up. 

"look, you can't do anything about the weather and I know the new job is not to your liking, but you will get use to it and then you will start to enjoy  it. Why don't you have a party, that will cheer you up, I'll help and do some party food" said Rosalind

"Now that is a good idea, I'll let everyone know I'm hosting an anti-social party. No one is invited" replied Martha.

 The words this week are 'I don't know about you, but people make me say bad words' My computer makes me say bad words, I am really having problems with it.

Tracey is relaxing at home having had a busy week at work, and her friend Astrid has come round for a coffee and a nice long chat. As Tracey noticed as soon as Astrid walked in that she wasn't a happy bunny.

"What's up with you" Tracey asked

"I've been shopping at the new shopping mall in town. As you can see I haven't bought a single thing" replied Astrid.

"Well that has to be a first, I'd better go make that coffee to recover from that statement" said Tracey looking somewhat bemused. "                                                                                                                         "OK so what was wrong with the shopping mall?" asked Tracey as she came in with the coffee.

"It was full of people, you could hardly get in the shops let alone buy something, They stand around in big groups chatting away and don't even get out of the way to let you past. It was hopeless so after an hour of trying to get past people I gave up and left. I don't know about you, but people make me say bad words" Astrid said. 

What's up with me is my computer and a husband who has managed to delete all my links to my art sites etc.

  'OK I checked my calendar I won't care next week either' are the words this week.

I have spent all day trying to upload my page, and in the end had to sneak around google and find another way. I dislike computers when they don't work. (or is it me)

Perri had gone for a walk to meet her friend Esme and was horrified to see Esme wearing an umbrella on her head. Esme was also looking somewhat fed up.

"What's up with you" Perri asked

What you you think, I come out to meet you and what happens, just look up at the sky, we look as if we are in for a real downpour, even your dog looks a bit dubious. You know I hate to get my hair wet."replied Esme.

"OK I can understand that, it does look like rain, but why have you an umbrella on your head that doesn't have a handle like everyone else's? asked Perri.

I took the handle off and used this as a rain hat, it makes perfect sense to me" said Esme.

"Well it looks ridiculous" said Perri.

"OK, I checked my calendar I won't care next week either" replied Esme.

 The words this week are 'You know what's funny? not you'

Kerri had gone out for a walk and bumped into her best friend Angela. "I was just on my way to see you, exclaimed " Angela. I was hoping to catch you in. 

"I felt like a walk, what is it you wanted to see me about" asked Kerri.

"Well as you know is my birthday next week and I have been given a weekend trip for two to Paris, all expenses payed, by my parents" said Angela.

"Wow lucky you, is your boyfriend going with you" asked Kerri.

"You have to be joking, my parents wouldn't allow that, no you are coming with me,  chuckled Angela.

"Oh, the thing is, are you flying or going by train" asked Kerri ?

"Well flying obviously, why do you ask" asked Angela. 

I'm terrified of flying, that's why, they say a plane takes off every two minutes Heathrow, what if they bump into each other ? said a nervous Kerri.

"It's the safest way of travelling, did you know that" replied Angela. " I'll hold your hand if you like"

"You know what's funny, not you"remarked Kerri.

"I'm not being funny , but you coming with me, even if I have to drag you up there, I won't take no for an answer. You will be fine, it's very exciting honestly"

"Right, I will have to go and find my brave face then, and try to not look out of the window to see how high me are" said Kerri.
