May I have fruit tea please? I don't drink 'real' tea and it is too late in the day for coffee. No shortbread thanks, trying to lose weight.
Labour could give energy companies power to access our records.

AIBU
I lay awake in the early hours and thought about the pleasant times I've spent in the Quiet Corner. For whatever reason, I spread my wings and have tried to be more adventurous by dipping into very different threads. From hereon, I hope to visit this corner regularly. Just now, I'm feeling calm inside.
It will be so good to have Gally back.
Nansdogsbody ...respect! You really are a champ.
Safe travels Anno. Bet you've had fun-times with Greatnan
It's very blustery in Kintyre. There are big white-topped waves on the sea.
My friend reported seeing the wee feral ginger kitten [the same that a passing motorist spotted on Sunday.] She thinks that it must be about 2 months old. Rory is out again. It wouldn't surprise me, to see him with the kitten - in our garden - sometime soon. 
Marelli yes, that was a good idea and great timing. Have a fabulous time today, and hello to all anonymous Gransnetters who are lurking. Come on in - you don't have to go in at the deep end (I hesitate to recommend the 'shallow' end - you know what I mean) 
Morning everyone. Today I've got two 2-year olds and a 15 month old to look after. Happy days!
Morning everyone. Pouring down here but I have just been for a walk with the dog, and the air is so fresh and clean that it didn't matter that we got wet through. Today, my daughter and I are taking the girlies for their develomental check-up. Can't beleve they will be one next month. Yesterday, we had a lovely spending spree on baby clothes and birthday presents. They laughed and babbled all the way round the shopping centre. Great fun!
Morning all, it's a gloomy wet morning here in Cheshire, but my dgd is coming whilst her mum goes to work for a half day, so I shall have lots of cuddles 
Safe journey, gally 
Thank you - I shall look forward to being back on the same time as you! I leave here tomorrow (wednesday) at your 5 am so back at Heathrow early on thursday morning - I hear rain is on the cards - there's a surprise Mixed emotions; I have just been having a wonderful cuddle with Harriet who was gurgling and laughing at the tears running down my face. She is the most beautiful baby and of course I will miss the others too (but not the constant shouting and tantruming ).
Anno and Great it sounds as if you've had a wonderful time together - safe flight home
Have a safe journey home Anno. Sounds like you have both had a great week together
Actually....do you think I could have just a small red 
too, please?
Hi Gally have a safe journey back
Yes, Ella some fresh air to blow the cobwebs away is just what is needed. I'll have a lovely cup of thanks!
Good morning Gally
Good morning Ella and Crimson, I may just join you for some time out before starting my packing ready for the trip home. I have been trying to keep up with recent threads, but to be quite honest, I am becoming more and more confused, nay flummoxed - nothing unusual there, some may say - so have given up trying. Tomorrow's another day ...........
Ah , that's better, I'll have a large AND a large 
.Never do anything by halves!
I thought I'd open the window in here and let some fresh air in,so that we can sit down with a nice and or if you prefer, a large .
It seems a little fraught out there on the forum lately, so our quiet corner is here if needed.
