Good Morning Thursday 21st August 2025

Good morning from a somewhat cooler Wiltshire.

Susan56 I am most saddened to hear about your neice. My heartfelt condolences to you. With a hospital stay as well you have had a most trying week.

Marydoll I imagine you had a faint if you knocked your head. Please take it easy and I hope you get some long sought after answers soon.

Equanimitie your holiday sounds like it was amazing. I had to look up that town in Greenland on Google maps. There are some great photos of icebergs but also of a boy with a most unusual but rather nice hair design.

Bellasnana I hadn’t realised dogs could travel in the cabin of an aircraft. I hope you have a lovely time with your daughter.

Apart from our delicious lobster Thermidor and bottle of Nyetimber last night nothing much else going on till the weekend.

Have a good day everyone.

Sincere condolences Susan.
Not read all posts yet. I may be back.

Oops - my reference to her GP was for Marydoll!.

Good morning from Stockport.
The sun did break through later yesterday so this overcast morning may cheer up.
My friend was reasonably ok yesterday but said after one more visit overnight from her D and SiL she probably won’t see her family until Christmas and she really does think the sun shines out of them.
They are so successful in their fields that they are indispensable
at their work which is why they can’t spare the time for her.
I just keep very quiet.
I am expecting a call from the surgery Pharmacist today to discuss my meds after my blood tests last week.
I assume they were ok as I haven’t heard anything to the contrary.
I have a quiet day today apart from that and will go through some clutter in my bedroom, it needs it.
My H was the tidiest of people and I think I have rebelled slightly from his gentle criticism now he is no longer here to reproach me.
Such sad news from Susan, it seems so tragic to have no hope left at all.

Good morning everyone. Just had the marvellous news that GD2 has done extremely well in her GCEs. Tears of joy all around.
Hope all other ‘expectant’ GNs have had similar news.

Oh no Marydoll. I had missed your post today. I hope you are OK. Sending loving thoughts and prayers.

Well done your DGD JamesandJon
We had our good news earlier in the month as the Scottish system is different.

So sorry to hear your sad news Susan. Condolence to you and family.
Hope you have no more setbacks with your recovery as well.

I am sorry but I was in such a rush this morning that I didn’t read any of the posts. That being so I missed some , Marydoll and Susan. For instance. I am thinking of you both

So sorry to hear the sad news from Susan; like the previous poster I had no time this morning to read the posts, and have only just now caught up. What heart ache for Susan's family.

And Marydoll too; I hope you are now recovering from your incident yesterday, and hopefully getting much needed medical help.

Oh no Susan what a terrible tragedy you and your family are having to deal with. I am so so sorry. May your poor niece be at peace now.😞

Ashcombe your mum was born on my mum’s 3 rd birthday ☺️

Yes glammagran, dogs under a certain weight can indeed travel in the cabin of the plane. They must fit into a carrier that can fit under the seat in front.

DD1 always travels business class so has a lot of extra room for Bertie. He’s 13 now and very well behaved.

Thank you so much for all your kind messages.
I was invited to say goodbye to my niece today.We set off with some trepidation but were so glad we went.She looked beautiful and so peaceful.My brother is naturally devastated and finding it hard to deal with so our job is to support him.

Marydoll I am so sorry that you had a fall and really hope you received some help from your GP.
