Soop's special Kitchen for kindly folk.

Thinking with kindest thoughts of NannyG4 today and hoping the love she will be surrounded by will carry her through the day.

We’re all holding your hand NannyG4 ❤️

Sending love and strength to NannyG4 today

Also thoughts to the soops and yiayia

Bust day ahead still with problems ( of my own making) to sort. I was hoping for support from son or DIL but it fell on deaf ears.

My thoughts are with NannyG4, x

soop, I really hope MrSoop's problems get the right treatment very soon. Take care, both of you.

Also thinking of you & your DH, YiaYia, both tough & happy times ahead.

Warm thoughts for all in this kind, friendly & supportive haven. x

Sending you love Nanny G4 x

NannyG4... You've been in my thoughts and prayers today. X

nannyG4 sending you and your family loving thoughts.

Just popped in to say that I thought of nannyG4 today and am sure she was surrounded by love on this sad day.

Loving thoughts to YiaYia and Thesoops, though I still fondly think of MrSoop as McSporran.

Hoping NannyG4 got through yesterday ok and managed some sleep last night ❤️

It’s really windy here today, it’s dry and sunny but the wind is quite cold. I’m just back home from DD2s with a car load of things to either try to sell or donate. Sorting through it all will definitely keep me busy this afternoon

Hope Mr & Mrs Soop are doing ok, take care all x

Good afternoon, Soop and lovely Kitchen people.

Back home now after a very early start , drove down the motorway to see The Wee Boy starting school. We had breakfast together, he was his happy wee self and not at all anxious ( that's just me!) He looked very smart in his uniform and blazer, and decided to go on his scooter to school! It's a good 15/20 minute walk, so he enjoyed that.
The three Primary One classrooms had red carpet and Welcome balloons at their entrances, so there was a good natured queue for the special Kodak moments. We've got lots of happy photos, I can only post the one with the back view!
When his teacher opened the doors, he ran up to her and said, " Good morning, Miss P.", he'd been practising!. 🤣 I hope he has a good day, strange starting on a Friday.

I was pleased to manage the walks to/from school, got my knee elevated with the frozen peas now. I'm looking forward to Bookgroup with my sisters and friends this evening. The venue is our local Indian restaurant and we're reviewing My Father's House by Joseph O'Connor, brother of the late Sinead. It's a well written fictional retelling of the actual events of the occupation of Rome during WW2, portrayed in the old film The Scarlet and the Black. Very interesting reading.

Best wishes to all on holiday or visiting family, safe journey brook, hope you and your DH have a wonderful time in Menorca. 😎😎

Thinking of NannyG4, I remembered her DH and all who loved him at Mass yesterday.

Thinking of all our kitchen folk who have illness, worries or sorrow.

Wishing everyone a peaceful Friday and the best weekend possible.

Hope everyone has a calm and relaxing weekend, we are titivating the house up ready for sale.
Had fish and chips for dinner yesterday, at a local pub. Was not v nice, greasy and could taste cheap cooking oil, of course paid the price in the night.
On a strict diet today x

Is it really Friday again? How time flies...

Grannmarie Thank you for sharing your beautiful photograph. Memories are made of this.

A quiet day is planned at the Soopery. I may feel the urge to pedal my bike to no place in particular. Once in the saddle I feel duty bound to pedal for the full thirty minutes. Shall I begin right this minute? Watch this space.

Awww grannmarie what a gorgeous photo ❤️

Lovely photo Grannmarie. I am looking after dgs2 who is currently sleeping. Apparently, he is going to marry me. 😂
I'm not too excited - he married his mum last night

Hello kitchen people. OH has just gone to the bus stop in the next village to pick up elder son and granddaughter. They’ve spent the day in Oxford. Granddaughter hasn’t been on a bus much. Her mum is in London for a couple of days checking on the new bathroom and working.

I had a migraine earlier. I don’t have as many now 🤞 . I took a triptan but they leave me feeling drained.

Have a good evening.

How lovely Grannmarie Fin starts seniors this year and Imogen college, not for a couple of weeks yet.
Sorry to hear about your migraine llfl 🌻
It’s been a glorious day, I’ve been garden pottering and my fingers are filthy from weeding, avoiding the bees and I’ve seen more wasps today, MrJ is on sausage and mash duty.
We sat outside at our local earlier, well, I don’t sit much, I flit about chatting! It was very convivial, a couple of shandies and a catch up.
I hope Urms and himself have had a great week with their family.
I’m also thinking of NannyG4 who may well be exhausted today, hugs to you.
Have a gentle evening all.

I love this picture. I first spotted it at the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in 2021 but didn’t buy it. It is now far too expensive so I bought a greetings card version and here it is. Four feminists in a canoe with their cat.
