Greetings to all our marvellous Kitcheners.
Here we are again
Caring as can be
All good pals and
Jolly good company.
Buffet is ready and Champagne is nicely chilled.
THANK YOU for the comfort you have brought into my life. You are all extra special people. 
You are all such busy bees - I stand (or rather lounge with a mug of tea to hand) in awe!
My busy few days of granny duty behind me I feel I have done my bit for the Brum GC, each individually for a few days and all three back in early July when Mummy and Daddy went to Paris for the weekend.
I am wary of attaching pics but this one of GS2 “man at work” is too sweet to keep to myself. He make a smashing job of my shed and was so proud of his handiwork!
Now I feel guilty because circumstances have not permitted the same level of support to the London GC! My current lameness makes the thought of walking any distance an excruciating prospect and I could not do London childcare without a fair bit of walking. To be fair, neither D has asked me to but like all of you, I imagine, I am obsessive about treating my children even handedly!
New courtesy car arrived yesterday while mine is being un-bent (plus a new rear door ) but it is so shiny I am afraid to drive it anywhere in case another inanimate object is magnetically down into contact with it.
Like jaxjacky I hate a grubby cooker and my ovens are a disgrace. The last time I treated myself to a visit from Ovenu (other firms are available) I loved the result, but so much so I didn’t want to cook anything and get it dirty again!
Sorry for prattling on about me- I hope Mr C is making good progress and that Cornergran is not too frazzled. How lovely to get support from friends and family. It’s when you really appreciate good neighbours too.
Thoughts for absent friends- Urmston and Kalu if you are looking in and all with heavy loads - brave Baggs , Naughtyneine and any I have not named.
Finally HAPPY BIRTHDAY Soop from your loving Kitcheners , Foxyhound and me xx
Many happy and healthy returns of your birthday Soop.
Sent with a hug.
Very best wishes for a Very Happy Day soop
Have the happiest of birthdays, Soop 🌺🍰😊
Wishing the happiest of birthdays to our one and only soop.
Hope you spend the day doing whatever makes you happy.💝
Hello! I’m in Sydney where it’s freezing. I tried posting earlier but it disappeared into the ether. My brother in law is an artist. Here’s one of his paintings.
I’ve never heard of Fyrish, Brook, despite having travelled the A9 from Thurso to Inverness many times in the 1980’s! I’ve looked it up, it sounds interesting.
I’m not long back from a day at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe with a group of twelve. It’s been great fun and now my throat has gone funny because I’ve been talking so much. 
G’night, all! X
Hi to all kitchen pals, it’s been a gorgeous day here in Inverness. Our plans changed when DD2 messaged first thing asking if we could take DGS out somewhere for the day as the rest of the family had a sickness bug. So we picked him up and we’ve been on a hike up to the Fyrish monument, just north of Inverness. The views were lovely and it was really good exercise for DHs new knee, he was pleased he’d made it up and down without too much trouble even though we went slowly. DGS is staying here for a sleepover tonight and it’ll be more of the same tomorrow 😀
Hoping you get the best mobility ann before your friend does!
