Fabulous news, SueD ? And, she’s very clever - cos when you’re too tired to have a baby, you really don’t want a late night, do you? ?. Health, happiness and long life to the dear little man!
Aah! I could definitely stamp and shout at the moment!
Well, this kitchen is lovely, I love the cool decor and colourful rugs.
I think I should have typed www.westwoodlakes.co.uk as the other doesn`t seem to work.

Congratulations Sue - a new addition to the family, how wonderful!
Many congratulations Sue
Lovely news for you and your family. Bet you didn't sleep much last night.
Thanks for fern advice * Kitcheners* Will post another pic if it takes over the bathroom !
I do know I've posted a shamrock and not a fern. My emojis ? don't seem to run to ferns.
Yay! Hearty congratulations SueDonim what lovely news to start the day!
Congratulations to your DD SueDonim a new baby boy, enjoy your cuddles ?
Suedonim hearty congratulations to you all! Happy news to end your day yesterday. Grandmafrench I feel ashamed at my lack of Scottish work ethic listening to your cleaning regime of yesterday. I've been having a creative spell. Yesterday I finished a painting of poinsettias for a friend's Christmas and got well under way on a painting of a lily. Then I began a new cross stitch in the afternoon. I'll work on that today. I might feel tempted to clean the skirting boards and sweep the house with a glance. Til later kitcheners.
Delighted to read the news sued. Many congratulations to you all.
Henry is certainly keeping a close eye on Sharky susan. Firm friends already
We’re hoping to wander out this morning, just no idea where we may wander to. 
Take care everyone.
Feel no shame, young Batty - I’ve been hunting for my work ethic (or any work ethic) for months! This silly phase won’t last - creative is the way to go! Nice to see Sharky, Susan. Suppose at the moment he doesn’t pose much of a threat ?! That Henry - what a darling! Have a super day.
SueD T=that is really good news- it just popped out think.
corner my feet would gravitate towards a coffee shop.
susan Henry and Sharky are well acquainted by now.
Wonderful news Sue congratulations to you and your family.? Love Henry and Sharky Susan.
Joyful news, SueD. I hope you soon get a granny cuddle. They do let them out of hospital quickly nowadays.
Good morning, Soop and all you lovely Kitchen people!
I'm just popping in to send many congratulations to SueD on the happy arrival of her gorgeous grandson, welcome to the world, precious wee boy.?
Grandmabatty, sweep the room with a glance, I love it??
It’s a Boy! ? Congratulations on the joyful news Suedonim.
Good morning to kitchen friends, wishing you all the best day.
Lovely photo of little H Susan.
Great news Suedonim . Congratulations ?
Lovely photo of Henry and Sharky Susan
Good Morning Kitcheners. I have such sleepy eyes this morning.
Such lovely joyful news SueD. Welcome to the world little fella. Get ready for your first cuddle grandma.
Love that photo Susan.
Congratulations ? SueDonim, lovely news ?
Congratulations SueDonim. He will bring such joy.
Dreich here in the Scottish Borders. Roofers just been to give us quote for leak in utility roof after yesterday's deluge. Or rather the day before's . DH started muttering about a big, brand new house but my heart is here. I viewed this place with dd and she said "this feels like home" as we entered the living room. So we bought it. And it is.
Good Afternoon to you all.
Very much "out of touch" I fear,and quite frankly finding it very difficult in trying to pick up the pieces.
However feel I need to poke my head around the kitchen door,not just to enjoy the comforting ambience within,but show you that I am still around.
Life is proving to be far more difficult than ever I imagined,whilst of course the darker,,somewhat bleaker months ahead do not exactly give me much hope.
But life is for living, and I fully intend to give it my best shot!!
Meanwhile please forgive me for being rather lost.
I sincerely wish each one of you the very best in health,life and spirits.
Lovely to see you Panache a warm hug from me. You'll get there. ❤️?
?Just left you a Lockdown Gang message Panache. Thank you for the wishes.
Those pieces will slowly come together as will the "normality" you spoke of ?. Take care.
Hello to Panache and all, I don't post often but read regularly and congratulations to Sue D and her family on the new baby.
I'm doing an Urms later as I'm fetching our L'il Miss from school, giving her tea, then dropping her off at Rainbows, collecting later and as she's probably sleeping over...an early get up in the morning in order to get her dressed in uniform, fed and ready to be collected by Daddy who will drop her off at school on his way to work!
I might need a 'nanna nap' tomorrow afternoon what do you think Urms?

A warm welcome back to our dear Panache
SueDonim A gentle but hearty welcome to the world to your new grandson. A lovely celebration is on the cards.
I am having to apologise because I have had to scrap the first attempt at a darling pussy cat's portrait. It went down hill from the moment I tried to "better" it.
Now, I am about to begin again. It's what I do. Never, ever give up. That's my motto.
Therefore, dear kitcheners I am unable to pass the time of day with you until I'm back on track. I know that you will understand. 
Lovely to see you Panache and good that you’ve here amongst friends
Hi ? to mamaa sounds like you’re having a busy day - enjoy every minute! And yes you’ll definitely need that nana nap tomorrow ?
Enjoy your painting soop I’m sure it will be lovely when finished
Really good photo Susan Henry and Sharky are so cute!
brook If only I had your optimism. I am doing my best which, at this stage in the proceedings, isn't to my liking. Early moments count. I shall sit and look at the painting thus far and hope for inspiration.
Susan Our Henry is growing fast. The photo is excellent. Sharky has a fan. Or should I have said two fins.
Not at all clever!
mamaa Please forward some of your boundless energy. After which, you certainly deserve a long and leisurely nap.
Hellogirl1 When I read about your son's traumatic visit to A&E I could barely believe my eyes. He must have been utterly exhausted when he returned home.
Grandmabatty I shall follow your splendid example and sweep the house with a glance.
