Here we are again
Happy as can be (in the circumstances)
All GOOD friends and jolly GOOD company.

Welcome. The buffet is waiting. Our retreat is warm and cosy. There will always be a comforting virtual arm around the shoulder for those who need one. flowers

Will be thinking of you tomorrow soop. Safe journey and I hope you have positive news when you return to us all.

With you in spirit tomorrow, dear Soop ?

SueDonim Sun 16-Jan-22 20:47:55

Welcome, GrandmaSeadragon! This is a very cosy place to while away and hour or two in good company. smile

Blossoming we had a lovely holiday in Wensleydale, back in the 90’s when my dd2 was a toddler. I have very fond memories of the area.

Dogsmakemesmile I’m glad you’ve reemerged from your under the stairs cupboard - I was a bit worried there for a moment! grin It’s nice to have some space again, isn’t it?

Soop, very best of wishes for your appointment tomorrow. I’m sure we’ll all be there in spirit with you. Xxx

Just a little decluttering done today - it is Sunday, after all. My afternoon was partly tied up with helping my youngest dd deal with the insurers after a car accident. It could have been far worse (a motorway near Manchester) but as with all these things, it’s the annoying bureaucracy you have to deal with. She has a sore neck today so will find a physio tomorrow to help with that.

I had my own accident this evening. Tripped over one of the many ‘decluttering’ cardboard boxes I have and went full length onto the floor while carrying a basket of clean laundry. I think my hip might be a nice colour by morning but again, it could have been worse!

I’m off to watch CTM on catch up and have a relaxed evening. Hope it’s the same for you! Xx

Just popping into the kitchen to wish you the very best for tomorrow soop I really hope a date is agreed for your surgery in the very near future
Also a very warm welcome to grandmaSeadragon I hope you enjoy the kitchen
We’ve enjoyed a long but muddy walk today and have collapsed on the sofa now with a glass of wine and some chocolate ..
I hope you’re not too bruised tomorrow Sue and hope your DD is ok too
Sounds like a really enjoyable family weekend grannmarie how lovely!

I`ve been missing for a couple of days, but would like to wish the Soops a safe journey and a good result tomorrow, you deserve it so much!
Nannytopsy, so sorry about Charlie, we really do miss them, don`t we?
And a welcome to Grandmaseadragon, what a fabulous name!

Grannmarie Sun 16-Jan-22 22:04:30

It was, Brook, thank you.
SueD, I hope you're ok after your fall!
Cornergran, I hope your DGDs' Mum recovers quickly and completely.

mamaa Sun 16-Jan-22 22:19:28

Good wishes for dear Soop for tomorrow and ? on the side for whoever might like for whatever reason. Nothing to snack on, sorry, but been busy with our own ‘boywonder’ today. Love him ( and his sisters) to bits but need at least 2 days r+r after the visits ??

dragonfly46 Sun 16-Jan-22 22:23:11

I hope your appointment goes well tomorrow soop will be thinking of you.

hulahoop Sun 16-Jan-22 23:25:44

Good luck tomorrow Soop have a good journey x

Nannytopsy Sun 16-Jan-22 23:44:54

We moved here from Leicester Grandmaseadragon and often visited that big lake!
Changed the bed today and didn’t have to extract a large ginger cat from inside the quilt cover while we were trying to put it on. DH says no more pets …

muse Mon 17-Jan-22 00:49:37

Hello kitcheners. Things have been a little busy and somewhat hectic the past few days and GN visits have been squeezed in between lots of kitchen designing and gardening. Plans have still to be agreed.

soop Wishing you all the best tomorrow and looking forward to hearing your news. ?

Welcome to the newcomers. Chocolate fudge cake is on the cards for everyone tomorrow.

BladeAnnie Mon 17-Jan-22 07:47:06

A quick good morning before I start work and to let dear soop know I'm thinking of her today

Alygran Mon 17-Jan-22 07:50:08

Hope all goes well today Soop x

Grandmajean Mon 17-Jan-22 08:34:55

Wishing you an uneventful journey Soop and a successful outcome from today's appointment.

SueDonim Mon 17-Jan-22 14:22:50

I hope your appointment is going well, Soop. I’m sure we’re all awaiting the update!

Nannytopsy, we said no more pets after we lost our wee cutie a few years ago. How we then acquired not one but two massive felines is a mystery to me! ❤️

Thank you for the sympathy after my fall. I must say, the resultant bruise is disappointing small, only about 2cm across! Not much to show for all my effort. grin

Doodle Mon 17-Jan-22 14:38:14

Muse glad things are going well and you are busy with the garden too. I hope we will all be invited to a housewarming soon ?. Can’t wait for the chocolate fudge cake tomorrow. Please May I take a piece for DH it’s his favourite ?
Suedonim sorry I missed your post about your fall. Hope you are ok.
Thinking of your Soop hope all goes well.

GrannyGravy13 Mon 17-Jan-22 14:40:37

Sending my best wishes soop

Doodle Mon 17-Jan-22 14:42:15

dragonfly pleased to read on the GM thread that your DD has got her new home. Good news. How’s Dexter, hope he’s doing well?

Aldom Mon 17-Jan-22 14:46:49

Just wanted to let Soop know that I'm holding her in my thoughts today. Hoping all goes well at her appointment. Travel safely home. Warmest wishes. flowers

Blossoming Mon 17-Jan-22 14:48:41

Good afternoon dear Kitcheners. New router installed and connected and I feel like it just finished the Spartan race. Crawling around fitting awkward connectors into tight spaces is for fit, young people, not wobbly old people like me grin.

SueD Wensleydale is one of my favourite places when I need to get away for a while. Luckily Mr. B feels the same! Hope you’re OK after your fall x

Chocolate fudge cake is most welcome muse, I am supposed to be laying off sugary treats but I have definitely earned one today.

Hope that all is going well for soop

GrannySomerset Mon 17-Jan-22 17:49:40

Another one keeping everything crossed for Soop and hoping for positive news tomorrow.

Dogsmakemesmile Mon 17-Jan-22 17:51:48

Fingers crossed for soop. Spent the day with my toddler granddaughter. Super weather so outside a great deal. Lovely. Came home and continued on my decluttering by emptying out my bags (I am afraid I have a lot) and ripping up receipts and all the other bits of paper I seem to accumulate. Threw in recycling bin. When I walk Ddog later I am going to take all my used batteries to Sainsbury's where they have battery bin (not sure of correct terminology). That will be it for a few days. Found this decluttering has energised me. A quick throw in the oven tea and a quick hoover awaits. Take care everyone. I would love some chocolate cake muse.Glad router fixed Blossoming.
