Hi all, your meal sounds lovely Dusty and a helpful manager, Italian is a favourite.
How exciting Yia you may be offered bit parts, famous at last!
The works are moving so slowly SueD, it must be so frustrating, kittens are keeping you on your toes as a distraction.
Very clever * llfl* it looks very at home there.
Well that’s annoying brook perhaps if you find somewhere that suits ‘en masse’ you could negotiate a discount.
A quiet day today, wet, grey and chilly, enough is enough now, I’d rather have frost and blue skies.

WELCOME! The buffet is ready and there is coffee, tea and wine for the sharing of. Make yourselves comfortable. I shall now have my lunch and join you later. 
Soop sorry to hear you have had more bad news. Don’t ever feel bad for sharing on this lovely forum you yourself give support to so many people.
Argh, I missed the Soop’s out of my earlier post! 😱 I meant to say I was thinking of you both, Soop. I’m sorry you’ve had more bad news. If you feel you do want to share, the beauty of the Kitchen is that it has broad shoulders on which to cry.
That’s a shame for you, Brook. I hope you can find another home-from-home for you all to go to.
Such a cheery loo, LLFL. 🌺
GrannyGravy, I’m not sure which is the life skill - swimming or being able to deal with two small ones at once in a swimming pool. 😂
The visit to the vet went ok. The verdict was that she is teething along with a large dose of being a fraud. We’ve instructions to be firm with her. 👀 Both kittens are on a starvation diet overnight as he must not eat now until after his op. Maybe she’ll be grateful for her food after that!
My car passed its MOT so that’s another thing sorted. It was valeted, too, so resembles less of a farm yard right now. That’ll only last until GD gets into it tomorrow. 
Night nigh, all. Xx
Unusually active week for us. Clearing the contents of two large wardrobes used more for general storage than clothes plus cupboards and the under ottoman bed space in preparation for new carpet next week. Still a way to go. Our conservatory resembles a warehouse, or even a down market jumble sale .
We’ve two granddaughters with birthdays this week. Celebrated with one in her home yesterday, her mum and partner provided a delicious buffet for 10. Tomorrow it’s off to a pub for a meal with her sister who will be 18. I’m rather shocked! When we moved here she was 7. Where does time go? Saturday we’re invited to her party which sounds loud, frantic and frankly not our thing although we’re so touched she wants us to go. We’ll stay a while and ship away.
Discovered today a shed roof is leaking. Once the bedroom havoc is over I’ll empty it and dry anything that needs drying. Our son assured me he has roofing felt to spare and yes he has time to do it. We’d not ask, they are both so busy and have enough hassle in their lives without our DiY. We’re grateful for the offer.
The eye hospital appointment to investigate the ‘oddity’ found at my recent eye test has been brought forward by a month. Mr C is worried in case what was seen was suspicious. Me? I’m just pleased it will be April not May. I’m sorry your appointment wasn’t all that reassuring brook. Good for you for being so positive. I’m a drain on the NHS at the moment. Have an MRI on Friday. Very shocked to get a call to book it, the referral was only a week ago.
Time for sleep now. Love to all with personal mountains to climb. Thinking especially of soop, blossoming and urms. TOYA . Sleep well everyone.
Hello? I’m the first in here today it seems at 2pm! You must all be busy today. I’m just popping in to let you know that Himself has booked me a Jet2 flight out to our happy place this Sunday for 5 nights. He has persuaded me to go - insisting he is well enough at present to look after himself. He isn’t allowed to fly as he is receiving chemo treatment but next week is his ‘week off’, he is looking and feeling well, gaining weight and eating pretty much whatever he fancies these days - we even joined friends recently for a restaurant curry! I’m sure I shall feel a little apprehensive and emotional but Himself said ‘Go, woman!’. He is, as you know, the kindest most selfless (and bravest) of men. I had to come in to share this news with all you lovely folk as you continue to support us wholeheartedly and your concern constantly humbles me.

This day the 13th March 28yrs ago was the worst day imaginable here in Dunblane. Sixteen innocent Primary one children and their teacher a lovely woman were killed and others injured. They were waved off to school as usual in the morning to somewhere they should have been safe. The aftermath was awful and will never be forgotten especially here.
