Good Morning Tuesday

Good morning from very wet Sefton.
Yesterday the rain stopped at midday, domestic stuff was abandoned and a long cycle ride along the coastline to Liverpool occupied my afternoon. Three of the Iron Men now sport t-shirts which made me smile. (Even better was a necessary pit stop for hot choc and cake.) Nearer the city the misty view of Wirral did not deter me attempting a wave to EV. A pic of the gorgeous sea holly which lined the route might appear…
Poor Imogen, Jaxjacky. I’m thinking of you all and hoping there is some good news winging its way. Marydoll, may the ankle support give you some relief and aid in your recovery. Wow, wow, wow, hollysteers. Serious respect for such talent.
My plans today to potter in the garden look unlikely. I’m looking forward to the imminent arrival of the clothes I ordered during the England - Germany match. The parcel includes a waterproof jacket and two dresses - hedging my bets.
Thinking of those who are absent and those in need of comfort. Sending a wave and a smile from Merseyside.

Sea holly and Wirral.

Grandmafrench thanks for the advice, have tried it to no avail, hope your chat goes OK
Sar53 I do have those wipes but I continue to fog up! My appointment is with specsavers this pm. Maybe I have a n allergy to masks!!

Good morning from Cambs., where, after a very wet night & early morning, it is now warm & bright.

DH is golfing later, I hope the showers forecast don't stop play.!

Jaxjacky, thinking of you & your family, warm wishes for Imogen's recovery & return home.

Your settee looks grand, Elizabeth, it makes ours look dark & dingy!!

Best wishes to you all, especially those with added worries, Also our missing posters.

Good morning all from Lancashire, where we have had rain early on but currently sunny. I need to get the laundry done, hope it stays dry. Jaxjacky how worrying, I hope Imogen is OK. Will catch up on your posts later as I must get on with a few jobs.

Jax - looking really promising so far. I’ve just requested more positive news for you and yours.
Good luck with the specialist Grandmafrench.
What a beautiful garden and amazing view Laura.

muse: I’m still very apprehensive about trains Ash. When I do it, my train to DH will require a change at New Street.

Please try not to worry as most journeys I take are trouble free. Generally, I’m enthusiastic about rail travel. Even when busy yesterday, staff were very mindful of hygiene procedures and masks were worn universally.

The particular issue at New St for me is that it's been extended and now has two zones: blue and red. My incoming train from Crewe arrived in blue but I was due to leave from red. You have to go through an exit barrier then re-enter the station through another, if changing zones.

Booking a seat is advised at present which I did at my local station. It might be an idea to tell the booking clerk of your concerns so they allow enough time around the change at New St. It is possible to request assistance at stations if you ask when you book.

Here’s a link to a plan of the station which might help:-

Good luck!

Good morning, Mick and everyone from a brightish Carlisle. It was raining when I got up so I was pleased I'd managed to mow the lawn yesterday. I also got my satellite dish installed, not by a spry young man but by a spry gent of definite pension age! Tomorrow comes my new TV, an all singing and dancing model that I hope my brains will be able to operate.
I idly watched delivery men unwrapping a new sofa destined for my new neighbours. I betted it would turn out to be grey and it was. I can't understand the current fashion for grey decor...too much like the usual weather. I like to be cheered up by colour around me, though this time I have gone for neutral basics (not grey!) with splashes of colour though I do sometimes miss my previous orange carpet.
The best possible day to you all and wishing you only good news about your Imogen, Jaxjacky.

Well the washing machine is on, but it looks like more rain is on the way. Take care Marydoll I know how frustrating keeping off your feet is but you really don’t need any further aches and pains. Glad there’s better news about Imogen jax, hope your husband’s foot is soon better sar. Will catch up on the rest of the posts now.

Good news that the chemo can go ahead hari, you and your husband have had an awful time lately.

Good late morning from The Algarve. It was completely overcast and grey earlier although I could see it was clear over the coast but it is clearing here now and the sun shining through.

JaxJacky thinking of little Imogen hopefully feeling a bit better and all of you waiting for news.

I’m hoping Grandmafrench ‘s ears are holding up to the challenge too and that the rheumatologist gives you positive news.

Imogen has epilepsy, my daughter is distraught, probably in shock. It’s a lot to take in for us all.

What a shock for you all.
I assume this has nothing to do with the scald.
I send my sincerest good wishes for a suitable treatment plan for I morgen.
Poor soul.

Imogen of course.

Poor Imogen. Jax. My son has epilepsy so I sympathise. His seizures can be brought on by lack of sleep or dehydration. I hope Imogen gets suitable medication soon ?

So sorry to hear the news about Imogen, Jaxjacky.
A shock for you all but I am sure that, being in hospital, means the paediatricians will quickly help with a way forward to help the family to cope.
Thoughts and prayers for you all.

So sorry to hear the news about Imogen Jax.Such a shock and a worry for all of you.I hope that Imogen soon gets the right medication for her and you are able to find the triggers which may bring on an seizures.Sending love,thoughts and prayers to you all.

Such a shock for you all, JaxJacky. My thoughts are with you, your daughter and Imogen. Sending a gentle hug, comfort and love. x

You must all be upset and in shock at the unexpected diagnosis Jax. I’m sure today’s superior medical knowledge and medication will mean things are not nearly as bad as they seem right now.
Take care ?

Sorry to hear of Imogen's diagnosis, Jaxjacky, such a shock for your dear daughter and all the family.

She's in the best place to be monitored and have a treatment plan put in place.

Sending love and prayers for Imogen and all your family. ???

Sorry to hear the news Jax. Hope she is allowed to go home soon.

I’m so sorry to hear of Imogen’s diagnosis, Jaxjacky. Of course you are all in shock, my thoughts are with you all and I hope she has a reasonable prognosis.
