Hello again

Hello everyone, I am so pleased you are back Soop as everyone says. I have been a lurker on your kitchen thread for a long time and the morning thread but said I’m going to join in for the New Year. Two lovely threads that really cheer me up and I look forward to reading what ‘us grans’ get up to

Hello Soop how lovely to see you back in 'your' kitchen. We have missed you. You sound quite upbeat, long may it last, much love xx

however you write.
Is wot I wrote.
But my device thinks it knows better...sigh

Hello Soop. Welcome back.
Does your shiny new device have a voice to text facility?
Ask your learned son.
Worth trying if it does.
Just might be a labour saving option.
Either way we all welcome whatever however write.

It's wonderful to hear from you Soop, you sound very positive and upbeat! You'll soon get the hang of your new tablet and you'll know a big difference when you can operate it on your lap in your cosy comfortable chair. Wishing you and your amazing Mr Soop all the very best when you pop that cork! 🥂

So lovely to see you back soop, I have really missed you.

Oh lovely news soop! So glad to see you back after such a time. You have been missed and worried over. With much love - enjoy your champagne.

Welcome back Soop. Good to read your upbeat message.
Best wishes to you both. X

Soop so lovely to hear from you. Sending gentle hugs and lots of love to you and the wonderful Mr Soop x💕

Dear soop everyone is so concerned that you have not been able to be in your kitchen so it’s a wonderful surprise to hear you are using a new gadget and can now keep in touch.
Your care schedule is clearly working well for you - and long may it do so.
❤️ to you and mr soop .

So good to have you back amongst us, dear soop.

So lovely to see you posting again dear soop. I know what you mean about getting to grips with your new tablet, I updated mine last week and everything is in different places. It’s driving me mad! And the predictive text just types nonsense. (Nothing to do with my fat fingers of course!)
Good that you have so many carers to help you with daily life, and that you have effective pain relief.
Looking forward to seeing you in the kitchen again soon.
💕

It is wonderful to hear from you soop. I hope you will enjoy the new tablet and can use it in comfort.

How lovely to have you back with us soop, it’s made my day ❤️

Dear soop - so lovely to hear from you ❤️

So good to ‘see’ you back, dear Soop, you’ve been missed 💐

Lovely to hear from you Soop! My elder son and his partner are currently in Scotland about two hours from Inverness where they’ve bought a sort of holiday house. They are doing a bit of decorating so have left our 9-year old granddaughter with me for a few days. She wasn’t happy about roughing it in a house with no furniture!

How lovely to see you dear Soop xx

A joyous return soop so happy to have you back where you belong.
You sound to be being well looked after, long may it remain so.

Oh how lovely to ‘see’ you back here with us all soop. I’m still popping into the quirt corner of the kitchen regularly even if I’m not posting. I’m. sorry that you have such painful sounding problems.

What joy to see you posting, dearest Soop. It’s good to hear you are being well looked after. We have all been very concerned about you. A big hug winging its way across the miles from Malta to Kintyre.🤗😘😘😘

Since returning home from hospital, Mr Soop has been my chief carer. The cancer has resulted in my spine being bent to such a degree I find it difficult to walk beyond a few paces. A carer comes in during the morning to wash and dress me. I have two lady carers and one male together with two MacMillan nurses and our GP who supervise the medication regime...24 tablets per day and Oramorph if and when I need strong pain killers. Everyone is kindness personified.

The weather today is glorious. Not a wisp of cloud and a mirror-like sea. My son will enjoy the beauty of Oban from which ferries leave for a handful of islands,

We were given a magnificent bottle of Champagne at Christmas, we will pop the cork on New Year's Day. When we do so, we will raise a glass of cheer to our Kitcheners.

I apologise for twittering on at a rate of knots. From hereon, slowly but surely, I will try to catch up with each and every one of you. It will take time but...this is the moment when I can claim to have made the effort, albeit from a rather lumpy old fashioned computer chair.

Farewell my lovelies. I will return tomorrow.

Arrrrgh!!!! I feel such a silly old wotsit. The tablet is a gift from Mr Soop, my son helped to get me started and now that he's elsewhere to celebrate "the bells" for the next couple of days, his Mum is all of a dither. However, because You lovely lot have been kind enough to welcome me back into our kitchen, I feel duty bound to perch on the chair at our computer to thank you for remembering me after a very, very long absence.

I cannot recall when I last spent time with you. I shall endeavor to slowly but surely join you on a regular basis.

When my son returns from Oban He will grit his teeth (gently) and give me more lessons on my pristine tablet.

Hello soop. Nice to see you posting again.

That should be DOES’NT ……see……I am losing the plot here.
