A "nice" thread

I feel like starting a "nice" thread.

Post something nice that is happening now to you. Or in the past. Or likely to happen in the future.

In real life, I know of some things that are not nice that are happening to people. But I know these things in confidence. Each person does not know about the other.
People think I have only their problem to help them with, whereas in reality, I have about six.

I am ok really I think.
Just fancied a bit of cheering up.
I am actually going out today to a nice thing, which will hopefully help.
So at some point, I wont reply back for a while.

Today, my daughter brought her new puppy up to my house, to visit. He is so very lovely amd really listens to her. He is only 10 weeks old and is a Labradoodle and has very big paws! He is gorgeous!

How do you cope, when your balance has gone. I have AMD and I am very frightened of falling. I saw a private doctor, recently, and he said that I have a pinched nerve in my spine and Osteoperosis. I have taken vitamin D3 on a daily basis for the last twenty years, so I think he might be wrong about this.

There are a large number of posters on this thread.
But you may be better off starting a thread in the Health topic about your 17.31pm post Gossamerbeynon1945?
Then all posters would see it and may be able to help?

17.26pm post - Not sure I have seen a Labradoodle in real life. I think I want to!

hmm. Wary of opening that!
I suspect there is a joke in there!

Was this post directed at mine Re the Airbnb. If so, I can assure you it’s genuine.

DD’s boys haven’t got chicken pox, yippee!

Seems like an allergic reaction after us both racking our brains to what had caused them both to have spots in same places at same time we have narrowed it down to a Lush Bath Bomb.

Card from my grandson with lots of chat about his recent holiday in Bruges. He is 14 and not usually given to writing much, so this was a real treat.

I've a trip to make from Euston Underground to the O2 arena. Apparently I need the Jubilee line? Could anyone tell me where to change and finally get off, please? I've tried tfl. SO confusing!

The easiest way is to take the Victoria Line (Southbound) from Euston (not Euston Square, that's a different station) three stops to Green Park then change to the Jubilee line (final destination Stratford) to North Greenwich.

Heard yesterday that DH's niece is running in the Marathon. So sending all good wishes to her for a good run.

Yes it was to you.

Opened it now. Whoa and wow! Quite stunning.

It was something my DH said a few days ago. To be wary of opening links even on GN.
It wasnt something that occured to me before then, even though I am always wary elsewhere.
So I had his voice ringing in my ear!

I spent a lovely day with my son and baby grand daughter. We went for lunch ( he treated me) then we visited several dealerships as he was helping me choose a new car. It was such an great day and a joy to be in their company. He holds down a job he loves but with long hours and is married with such a gorgeous wee girl. I look at him and think when I was his age, 24, I had just started my career after university and two post grad years, was carefree and single (and probably selfish and still like a teenager!) He is a very caring son and how I wish his daddy and my parents were still around as they would be so proud of the man he has become.

That’s so lovely LucyW. I can feel your pride.

Thank you Fancythat.
We have all got everything crossed for her, hoping that she does well.
