A new what-I-did-today thread

soop, I'm very glad you're safe at home again. I'm utterly staggered that you chose fish and chips and mushy peas!! Who'd 'a thunk it?

Hey! Do they do that at the George in Inverary?

Thinking next Tuesday....

'Fraid so, Bags. We stopped off for coffee on the way home. The fire had been lit. It was about 11:am and I thought to myself...at this time next week...

soop Lovely to hear you're home again!

Butty especially for you. x

soop glad you are home again, though it looks as if you have a lot to get through yet! Good too to hear your praise for the hospital - like mine after Theseus' operation. Take care of yourself, though I know Mr Soop will do that too. xx

Soop Glad you are back home safe and sound after a 'wind' powered journey and that the team believe your undercarriage can be repaired.

Thanks anno and soop.

I agree soop, surgery would be my choice too.

So far, so good, soop. I'm pleased to hear you got home safely and that the surgeons are hopeful of being able to sort you out. ((((hugs))))

Fish, chips AND mushy peas! Atta girl! Glad you're home safe and sound soop

Well done Soop - your bravery and positivism is an example to us all!

As for Mr Rory - are you sure he has not engineered the snow to delay his inevitable journey in the chariot of doom? Clever creatures, cats!

...and, 'though I was unable to have a G&T, I did enjoy a Baileys cream coffee...'licious!

Thank you for your supportive messages. I did mention to the staff on the ward that you lot are very special. Funny, but two people asked ..."are you from Worcester?" Which I'm not. A gentleman from the East, thought that I was American!

Although hospitals are not usually the jolliest of places, the NEW Stobhill staff made me laugh...especially the Staff Nurse.

Gaga...Rory is driving us silly. He's obviously wanting to go on the rampage and squawks pityfully whenever we near the door. The chariot of doom is ready for a fur-flying episode planned for 8:30 a.m. Twenty four miles of travel with a howling cat, should just about finish us off. Hey ho...as Bags says, onwards and forwards and no looking back!

Good luck for that, soop. I once had to transport a cat with croup (well that's what it sounded like) about 20 miles to the vet. Not only did he yowl all the way there and back but he yowled hoarsely. Unfortunately he didn't lose his voice.

Years ago, we took on an extra cat, who lived with DD in Putney. Small, black, gorgeous. Named Beauty. DH picked the cat up and brought her home to Kent. He can still point out the point on the South Circular where she pooed in her basket, and the points on the M2 where she threw up. (He's not good with vomit etc...)

She then stalked into the kitchen, and took up residence in the (newly cleaned out) litter tray, staring balefully at the three resident moggies, who were horrified. And the stories could continue...

We feel she had had a traumatic kitten hood!

Rory is perched precariously on the window ledge. His wifelet-that-was and daughter are tucking into their suppers on the patio. He is howling like a banshee. Mr soop is threatening to attend to his unmentionables with the kitchen knife. Only joking.

So glad your hospital visit had a hopeful outcome, soop, and the very best of luck with Rory tomorrow....I suppose you know very well that he will resist tooth and nail!

Glad you're back*soop*. Good luck with the moggie tomorrow (starting with getting him in the box!)

When we moved from Shrewsbury to Melton Mowbray in 1975, I drove my Citroen Diane all the way down the A5 with 3 children in the back and two cats, who had escaped from their cardboard cat 'baskets', sitting on my shoulders! I daren't stop for food, to wee or even to feed howling babies for fear of them escaping. The cats also howled all the way!!

So glad to hear you're home safe and sound, soop! The gales outside will mask any other 'untoward murmurs'. xx

soop pleased your home safe and sound, give Rory a cuddle tonight as I have a feeling he wont be speaking to you tomorrow

Had my two front lower teeth removed and a downstairs plate put in to match the upstairs one. Absolutely hate having false teeth but that's life. My GS is fascinated by them though!!

Welcome home soop keep off the f & c for a bit!!
nanapug ouch - do you get the plate put in straight away? Hope it isn't too sore.
I've just arrived home after a lovely birthday tea party for a friend's 80th birthday at Harvey Nicks. The food was amazing and topped off with a couple of Proseccos. I hope I look as young as my friend when I'm 80

Sooppleased you are back safe and sound.
Gally there's nothing like a lovely afternoon tea WITH Fizz!
Nanapug ouch!
Kitty ((((hugs))))
