Parents-in-Law. What do/did you call them?
Well Labour’s “patriotism” didn’t last very long, did it? 🇬🇧

Good morning all from a cold, but sunny Glasgow.
Laura, sorry to hear you are having a break, but you must do what's best for you. Hope to see you posting again the future.
Baubles, I'm so envious. ? A West End visit is on DD's and my list post lockdown.
I used to make my trips to the Western Infirmary, a whole day event and combine my appointment with with a spot of shopping and dining! Happy days indeed! Enjoy!
I'm pretty wiped out today. I have gone from splendid isolation to splendid busyness! I don't know if I like it! ?
My telephone consultation took one hour and forty five minutes yesterday! ? All through it my phone kept beeping! It was DD urging me to phone yet again about my jab.
I did and was immediately offered my appointment for today!
Later on my phone rang, offering me yet another appointment. Just like buses, nothing for ages, then they all come along at once! What a shambles my surgery is.
Just sat down and the phone rang again. The new decking installer phoned to say he couldn't get the colour I wanted, did I want to compromise, as there is a huge shortage of materials, post lockdown.
I happened to mention we need new patio doors and he said they really needed to be done first. Back to the door installers, who said they were swamped and we were on the list, but it is a very long list!!! Phone calls back and forth, until it was partly resolved. Where was MrMDoll, in all of this?????. He was nowhere to be seen. Oh I forgot, such mundane tasks are below his pay grade, as his PA, I had to make the decisions my self. ?
Lovely news from B9Ex, I hope all is well. GM on the advice of posters here, I bought one of those garden kneelers which can be turned into a seat, it has been worth its weight in gold!.
Sar hoping your husband is OK after his bump, grandmajet that your phone consultation goes well and such sad news from Elliane. ?
I'm off to wash my short, short hair. ( Which I'm now regretting) It should take all of two minutes to dry it, as opposed to the previously hour long hair washing session.
To add to my glam look, I am going to wear make up and jewellery! After all, going to the surgery is my first official event, since stopping shielding! ???
DH is more excited than I am.? Now how can I persuade him to make a detour via TK Maxx? 
I shall come back later and read the posts properly. I'm having terrible problems, posting on GN with my tablet and this has taken me ages to do! ?
Wishing you all a pleasant day, whatever your plans.
Thank you all, you have really been wonderful support! It is a little girl, 7lb 80z, very short brown hair, I have seen a picture, she is beautiful, and Mum is absolutely shattered!
There was more than usual blood loss and the rush into Theatre again, but this time for a Ventouse, which was successful, and Mum and baby should be home tomorrow. Phew! 
I have asked DS if I can share a photo, but my family are very concerned, not unnaturally, about photos of their children on the internet, so will have to wait and see. But thanks again everyone!
Congratulations B9exchange. Warm wishes to you & your family. 
What happy news from you, B9exchange!
Such a relief to hear and indeed an answer to prayer! Putting the kettle on? Raising a glass of something stronger later, perhaps!!
Congratulations!
Just had a text from DS. Baby is out, via Ventouse, thank goodness, prayers answered! But he hasn't told me if it is a boy or a girl, just says he will update us later! He did this last time, and we didn't hear from him for 48 hours. There was a good reason then, but as things have gone better this time, hope he doesn't leave it that long! Off to put the kettle on....
