FGT Sending positive vibes to you both. We have been on that horrible cancer path with my husband and also a much loved nephew. It's not easy as many here will know.

Soop’s cosy kitchen for kindly and caring folk
(1001 Posts)In *soop’s absence I’ve opened the door, fluffed the cushions and replenished the buffer.
Blossoming you have more patience than me with that bracelet, how delicate.
Tough times SueD I hope today went well for Thursday.
Yesterday’s quiz was a record 54 in attendance, not bad for a village on a Monday, we caught up with quiz mates, but failed to get in the top three. Before that I went to see a physiotherapist and came away with a bunch of knee exercises, I’ve crepitus apparently!
Today was washing, managed to whip it in before some rain unexpectedly came down.
With 🌹to soop and others struggling.
Hope you can get your thumb checked out soon, Ladyleftfieldlover, it's been sore for a while.
I’ve just had another little cry reading all your lovely messages of support and kindness. Thank you. It means a lot to me right now. Less lonely somehow. x

My thumb is still painful so I’m not doing much today! OH is doing the Waitrose shop armed with a list!
Thinking of the Soops.
Hello 👋, Doodle and Tilly, crossed posts!
Hope you're both OK.
Good morning everyone. It's raining here, very overcast but not cold. My plans today involve ironing and making soup, simple routines after a very busy spell. My house has been neglected, but as people say in this neck of the woods, ' The house will be there when you're not!'
I hope Soop has had a comfortable night and all goes well for her transfer to Oban. Thinking MrSoop too. 💕
FGT, keep hoping, I'll keep praying, 🙏 💐, I'm thinking of you both.
UsedToBeBlonde, I hope you have a better sleep tonight. 😴
Hello 👋 to Grandmadinosaur and Pittcity, good to see you both.
Mamaa, happy birthday to your DH, enjoy your celebrations!
Grandmabatty, hope your feet are a bit better today.
Jaxjacky, good luck for your quiz tonight.
🤞

Once again thanks Baggs if it weren’t for you we would all be very much more worried.
Of course soop would have cake on her Birthday -she is a lady who likes to celebrate. 🙂
fgt your fighting spirit prevails and keeps you going. So much waiting in between treatments and scans. Hoping for encouraging news from you after tomorrow.
I’ve an hour to while away and I’ll sit by you Pittcity. It’s a scorching day in England (again).
Get the watering cans at the ready!
FGT prayers and hugs for you and DH.
Happy Birthday to your H mamaa
I am 20 years older than him so tell him he has a lot of living to do yet.
Sainsbury’s has just delivered and is packed away, the dishwasher is emptied from last night and I feel as if I have done a full day down a coal mine.
I have just cancelled an evening out on Wednesday as I know until this heat cools down I must just potter and do little else.
Morning all, I usually read the GM thread first so I'm not really sure why Ive popped into the lovely kitchen now instead of the evening. However, now I'm here I didnt want to just read and go. Thoughts with FGT and Himself hoping along with them that the regime is working and 🤞🏻 all goes as it should tomorrow.
Also just wanted to say thankyou to Baggs for keeping us updated and hope that Soop is comfortable and feeling better and that she and MrSoop are home, or at least closer to home, soon.
Thankyou too to JaxJacky who has, I feel, become the temporary custodian of this lovely place- keeping it all as Soop would wish it tom be in her absence.
Have the best day you can folks, it's my other half's 68th birthday today- we've had a bit of a year of it what with family issues and health problems but we're soldiering on.
BBQ later in our garden and maybe a few G+T's shall be imbibed-well it'd be rude not too

I’ve made a coffee so I’ll join you. My anxiety levels are high. It’s scan day tomorrow for Himself and these chemo tablets are brutal. It distresses me to see him so but we have to have hope. x
Good morning all.
After another rubbish night, partly the heat but mostly very annoying itchy bites which I “gathered“ on Friday, so I am only just having my morning cuppa in bed so I will join you.
Another hot day forecast which is not suiting me at all.
My S and two GS’s are due back today from a week away in N Wales so my peaceful days are at an end for the rest of the school holidays.
Wishing all the poorlies and their carers a better day and maybe better news.
Good morning all in the kitchen.
I’m joining you in having a cuppa and enjoying a quiet start to the day Pittcity
Sending best wishes to the soops fgts and others having troubled times.
Let us do what we British do best, sit down and have a nice cup of tea in our friendly, supportive kitchen. 
Oops, I've just lost my long catch up post...☹️
Just to say TOYA, especially the Soops and all with illness, worries or sorrow.
Hoping and praying that our brave Soop and her dear man are reunited tomorrow in Oban.💕🙏
Thank you, Baggs for being such a good friend to them and for keeping us updated.
Thank you, Jaxjacky, for keeping the kitchen going.
I'm very thankful to have had a very busy week of happy family events- a few days away with Wee Boy and his family at the Solway Firth, my cousin's wedding at a country castle near Biggar, and today, a delicious afternoon tea for the ladies of the family, hosted by my sister in a nice local hotel for her DiL's Baby Shower. Lots of driving but lots to celebrate and count my blessings.
NNGB.
A lovely sunny day here, so i went for an earlier than usual walk. Started the ironing pile and will finish it tomorrow hopefully. Both DDs visited this afternoon, DD1 bearing thank you gifts from the dog for looking after her last week! I miss her!
I’ve watered the plants that were wilting and hope the rest survive until we get some rain.
Thinking of the fgts and of course soop and her DH.
Night night everyone.
Hi all, there is a cloud over the kitchen, but I think soop would want her place of solace to keep going, so..
A sunny warm day, watering early, bedding x 2 washed and dried easily, MrJ remade the beds.
My daughter is set up with the children for a few hot days camping, better than rain though!
We had bbq leftovers for dinner, nice and easy.
My thoughts are, of course, with the soops, I also hope all in the quiet kitchen have had a gentle day.
What struggles so many have ❤️
Thank you again Baggs for the latest update on our dearest Soop , it’s very much appreciated x
I wish you all the very best soop and I hope you are able to get back closer to your dear man.
Best wishes to you too Baggs
Sending Soop my very best wishes. You are such a strong lady, Soop. 💐
Thanks for the update again Baggs. I hope it won’t be too long before she can return home.
Thank you for letting us know baggs. Hoping she is comfortable and will soon be able to return to Oban. Sending best wishes to soop and her dear husband.
Thank you again baggs. It’s not easy being a messenger.
Our soop is a heck of a woman. Love to her, mr soop and the whole family. They must all be beyond worried.
