I don't think I've seen Baggs post for a while. I don't read all the threads, probably not even 50% of them, so she may be around somewhere. Anybody know if she's OK?

marydoll the sun is still shining here in the east with a dribble of rain no complaints here

So glad to hear from you Elizabeth
How can it be so nice on the East coast and pouring here!.

Another beautiful sunny sparkly morning makes me grateful to be alive and well albeit recovering from this rotten stroke. I’ve found great strength from my Gransnet chums I’ve fortunately and successfully claimed for additional social hrs and these start this week giving my husband a wee break from supporting me inbetween my carers he definitely needs the break he was getting real tired and his health was gradually getting affected. I’m so pleased for him now we can laugh again. The tears are drying up. Just happy tears.Thank you everyone you are all so dear to me hope to see some of you soon. Take care everyone flowers

Glad you liked them, elizabeth1. It has been great to see your name on Gransnet threads again xx

Marydoll Sun 08-Mar-20 19:04:46

Elizabeth, lovely to see you posting again.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to get to St Andrew's, but I'm sure someone will start the thread off for you.

Elizabeth1 Sun 08-Mar-20 18:57:40

Anyone going to start a meet up at the dolls house St. Andrews I would love to meet up with you again perhaps April

Elizabeth1, you're doing just fine. Keep on posting. We all want to hear from you. ?

Elizabeth1 Thu 05-Mar-20 18:54:18

My English is pretty pathetic I should win a prize for the amount of times I’ve said so much honestly I didn’t mean to my heads all over the place at times and that’s without any vino promise wink

Hi Baggs thank you so much for the lovely card and beautiful handcrafted placemats sent to me they fairly cheered me up so much work and thought has been put into these during this period in my life I’m pleased to say I’m improving so much and I’ve had an exceptional happy weekend with family and friends celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. Thank you so very much.gransnet forums are exceptional flowers

Not on twitter so missing out possibly.

POGS Wed 28-Aug-19 20:49:29

Baggs

Sorry to hear why you needed ' head space'. flowers

Marydoll Wed 28-Aug-19 19:10:06

Baggs I love your blog! It looks so professional. (IT hat on grin )

I had one years ago, about growing up in the west of Scotland in the fifties. Haven't a clue how to access it any more. sad

Gonegirl Wed 28-Aug-19 18:38:02

Oh! I meant to put a link to the blog! Will try again after dinner.

Baggs Wed 28-Aug-19 18:24:46

Eyyup! How nice to find friendly queries! Thank you ?. I needed to retreat a little after my mum died. Head space, I suppose.

Just to reassure, the link gg posted is to my Twitter account, which some GNers know about already.

I "Could not establish a secure connection"

What has Baggs been up to shock

Gonegirl Wed 28-Aug-19 18:03:23

all about Baggs' doings here. With photos

TerriBull Wed 28-Aug-19 12:02:48

I like Bags posts, she comes across as a maverick, seeing the bigger picture, at times she can be very direct and to the point, although conversely she also wanders off on a tangent where she seems to be swimming against the tide of thought, nevertheless an independent thinker. I'm glad we have people like her on this site, incidentally, I feel the same about you POGS smile so keep posting!

glammanana Wed 28-Aug-19 11:57:01

I saw her posting yesterday,I like her straight to the point way of thinking and her witty comments.

POGS Wed 28-Aug-19 11:08:00

I have missed Bags posting.

I miss her common sense approach and always found her fair and enjoyed reading what she posted.

If you are reading this I wish you well.

Gonegirl Wed 28-Aug-19 10:33:41

Go to Twitter and see her photos of the Boggy Brae.

Gonegirl Wed 28-Aug-19 10:33:04

She is still around. I think she laughs from the sidelines. wink

Baggs is mostly a Twitterer anyway.

NanaandGrampy Wed 28-Aug-19 10:30:57

She pops up in the kitchen .

Marydoll Wed 28-Aug-19 09:31:35

Soop posted a photo of she and Macsorran meeting with Baggs for coffee the other week.
They keep in regular contact, so I'm sure Soop would let us know if anything was wrong.

I like her posts, they are concise and too the point, unlike my rambling ones.
Having meet Baggs a few times, I can tell you she is extremely witty and good fun.

She posted on the thread about cancer sufferers deciding whether or not to carry on with treatment.

Bellanonna Wed 28-Aug-19 09:10:14

She put an emoji in response to a post someone had started about “earthy” potatoes. Apart from that I haven’t seen her in a while.
