Hi. My name is Frances Rose Agnes Napper. My Motto: If you have made someone in you life smile, then your life has been worth while 🫠

  • “Westlife”

    I’m crying. Wow! I’m watching Westlife at the Royal Albert Hall in concert, at the cinema. It is so good! The female singer Lauren is just fabulous! Such a beautiful voice.

    #IntervalTime

    Omg! When Catherine Jenkins came out to sing “You Raise Me Up”….I cried again.

    The show was just fabulous. 👌

  • I’m A Barbie Girl

    Q. Can you remember your first #BarbieDoll SmileyRose?

    A. Yes, I still have her somewhere. I can remember living on the RAF camp at Old Sarum, Salisbury, Witshire. It was during the children’s Christmas party when Santa arrived by helicopter, bringing each of us a small gift.

    He called us by name to collect our presents. I was delighted when I unwrapped mine, as it was my first ever Barbie doll. While most of my friends had blonde-haired Barbie dolls, mine was special because it had my skin colour. The Mattel logo was inscribed on the doll’s bottom. 😁

    I was very pleased—I had a Barbie that resembled me. It was perhaps one of the very first #Barbies I’d ever owned. I can remember my friends all having  blonde barbies, and I felt a little left out. I didn’t moan. But Santa Clause made one little girl very happy that year. 

    Re below: I forgot to mention that at the age of 5 yrs old, I wanted to be a hairdresser when i grew up. I can remember giving my Barbie a haircut. I cried when her hair never grew back! 😉

    I never did become a hairdresser. 🤣

    As a child, I always said that I would never tire of playing with my Barbies. Can you imagine how excited I was at having two daughters. My very own Barbies! Lol, I used to love dressing them in similar outfits. Their outfits often matched mine. We looked like triplets. 😍😁

  • A Kind Thought

    A very sweet young mother thought of me when she dropped in to give me this keyring today. #ThankYou for the kind thought. 😇

  • A Lovely Treat

    I sm having a quiet evening at home with a gin and tonic. 🙃

  • Milk Time

    I am reminiscing about my childhood. I have recently begun having milk delivered to my doorstep again after all these years. I recall my parents always having their milk delivered. It often made me laugh when the birds would nibble at the bottle tops in the early hours of the morning. I also remember having milk delivered when my children were much younger. The girls used to enjoy collecting the bottle tops and making a caterpillar by threading the tops onto a long piece of string. We combined sharing a glass of milk with fun and play.

    Is Milk nutritious?

    McQueens Dairies

    Yes, milk is nutritious, as it provides a good source of essential nutrients such as protein, calcium, and vitamins that support bone health, muscle function, and energy levels. However, the fat content can vary, so selecting lower-fat options may help in managing saturated fat intake, which is associated with cholesterol levels and cardiovascular health.

    Lol I can see why I was a milk monitor at school. 😅
