Good morning, Mick and all from a wet Glasgow, its bucketing down! I'm still in bed, pretty exhausted today. I shall be joining your sewing bee today, GM.
So many posts to read this morning.
Firstly Ash, you must phone 111, since your meds are affecting your heart. I ended up in Coronary Care because I put off seeking help, after new medication caused angina pains. I got help just in time.
I was recently told off by my GP for not phoning sooner about my angina. His words: If you don't tell us, how can we judge if you need help?. Remember the golden rule: If you have had two goes at using your nitro spray, with no relief, whilst using it for the third time, phone 999.
Please don't take any chances. It was a 111 doctor, who, on two occasions called, called for an ambulance for me, for which I will be ever grateful.
For those with Covid in your families, it must be such a worry. I hope it is only a mild dose and they feel better soon.
This super cold is also laying everyone low and as it appears to mimic the symptoms of Covid, its very worrying. I have been unwell for weeks, but all tests have been negative. Despite that, I still worry.
I had such an unexpected busy day yesterday, verifying ID for PVG (Disclosure) applicants. It was like a military operation, a bit like QVC where the presenters are miles apart and trying to have a conversation. I met some lovely people, it really cheered me up.
The new Parish Priest has a rather large and (to me) a very scary dog ( I'm terrified of dogs) , so when she came running towards me, I was petrified. To my astonishment, she sat at my feet and offered me her paw, then nuzzled me! The PP said she was a very good judge of character! ??
We received a surprise invitation from DS1 to come and watch the Hallowe'en parade and fireworks at the local park with Dollie last night.
Watching she and her little schools pals, excitedly chattering away, brought back so many, happy memories of teaching wee ones. They were all talking over each other and repeating everything that was said back to each other. It was delightful to watch. There were also some grandparents from church there too, so I had a great time.
DS and DIL had walked to the park, but I looked at the wee, tired, chicken legs and new for certain, Dollie would never make it back home.
Fortunately, despite not having been in our car since the pandemic began, (we lived in hope), her car seat was still in situ.
Thank goodness, Dil is a size eight, ( I am not) or we wouldn't have all fitted in the car. DIL had to do a lot of fumbling around my nether regions 
to find the middle seat belt, all in pitch darkness. I couldn't stop laughing!
We bought fish suppers on the way home, no cooking required, what joy!
I did have some photos, but unfortunately, they won't post.
Have a good day, whatever your plans. For those struggling today, I hope today is kind, especially for a couple of posters, for whom I know life is very troublesome. at moment. We never really know the impact of what we write has on those who read our posts. ?
