Hello Aussie Gran, thanks for your post. It’s so good to see positivity soon after some negatives ?

Thank you AussieGran. Sydney is lovely isn't it. I'm glad you escaped those devastating floods. I live in Devon and know Cornwall well. I count myself lucky to live in such a beautiful place.
Looking forward to reading your posts..

Hello AussieGran, what a thoughtful post. Hope the iron infusion goes better than expected flowers

AGran Such a lovely thread to wake up to

Thanks, Kalu, I'm quite concerned.

Back to the thread, sorry. ?

Kalu Wed 31-Aug-22 10:43:22

DD told me their forecast when I spoke to her yesterday Calli. Insurance companies are inundated with claims and government plans for all affected are up and running. It will be a very slow process until their house is habitable again. Renting meanwhile.
Sorry to derail your lovely thread AussieGran. Back to happier thoughts.

Another thumbs up from me, AussieGran. A bit of positivity and kindness is most welcome.

They always have difficulty with DH. One phlobotemist sent him away and told him to come back the next day and drink plenty of water in the meantime.

AussieGran ask the hospital to use a child size needle on you. It's the only way they could get or give blood to my mom.

Thank you for a lovely positive thread, AussieGran, reminding us that Gransnet can be positive, kind and helpful.
I hope the iron infusion isn't too painful.

Kalu I hadn't realised Brisbane was expecting more of the same this summer. After the dreadful floods I know that many homes, even if not flooded, have had a damp and mould problem. Very worrying. I hope your DD and SIL are ok now.

Hello AussieGran. and welcome to GN. It's great, mostly.
Just two minutes ago I had a WhatsApp from my Aussie friends in Perth. Are you in WA? I like Australia and Australians very much. You are a cheerful lot. I hope you will enjoy GN.

It's good to see some posters bringing something positive back to GN. It has been hard going lately so Thank you AussieGran.

What a strange year it’s been weatherwise. It’s as though the world has literally turned upside down with drought here in the north and your floods there in the south. Are you still having the effects of La Niña there?

Kalu Wed 31-Aug-22 09:46:22

What a lovely thread, thank you AussieGran. GN at what we do best. Hope todays ordeal isn’t too unpleasant. ?
DD2 and SiL who live in Brisbane we’re caught up in the dreadful floods there last summer, house completely submerged and she told me the forecast for this summer is more of the same!

Germanshepherdsmum Wed 31-Aug-22 09:34:16

What a nice thread. So different from the criticism and unpleasantness of the last few days. I hope the infusion goes well AussieGran, and thank you for this thread.

I like the word toadying to describe the word.

Thank you Aussie Gran good to know that Gransnet is appreciated and found to be welcoming and kindly if forthright at times. Good luck with the infusion.
Lovely to hear positive feedback.
