Grade 4 rectal prolapse.

That's a step in the right direction! TillyTrotter

Best foot forwards ladies!

Who needs fishnets when you have sexy bootees like these ?
Ho Ho Ho

I wore a pair of those to a staff night out and had an allergic reaction to them. I whipped them off half way through the night, the itch was unbearable.
However, they did only cost £1 in Poundland!

That is fabulous news. So near yet so far.

I do not buy lottery tickets so I am not expecting a big win until early next month when my premium bonds come up trumps. As I have said before, it is a minor admin error the money had not winged its way in my direction.

Just had a passing thought…….can you twerk a sporran??

Mr Soop's update...
Soop has very kindly offered to darn the holes in the mini sporran and give it a trim along the edge with her pinking shears. OUCH! Best to take it off first, thank you.
As for the fishnets, I have not had so much excitement in YEARS.

I will buy a Christmas Eve lottery ticket of two,
and any winnings will go to soop to partially help or fulfill her target. ?
Like you Charleygirl I am always urging the Christmas Fund onward …… ? ?

Good idea Tilly. I haven't done the lottery for ages - am bound to win something!!

You lot are lovely peoples. Kind and generous of spirit. I am looking forward to the delivery of the letter that will come from the surgeon. Patience must continue to be exercised. I do my best.

I am marvelling at the speed of all of this, who would have believed it?

It’s a Christmas Day Lottery UK, not Christmas Eve.
Multiple millions to be won. Just imagine …….

Morning all. I've just checked Soop's GFM page and it is now £13,465. Amazing. Not far to go. Good luck Soop.

Amazing Aldom nearly…..

Just a last push to go. Wonder what I can persuade my family to sponsor me for? Probably only a sponsored TV switch off. That would really hurt! Worth it though.

That’s brilliant news - thanks for the update Aldom

18 hours since the last donation. How can we get the amount over the line? MrSoop is it time now to involve local media?

I should be going to a pre-Christmas meal and drinks this evening but myself and the group of friends I was going with have decided to cancel and re-book in January (restrictions allowing).
I will give the £25 I would have spent this evening to soop ‘s
Christmas fund with pleasure ?.

TillyTrotter Why are my eyes misting over? I have no idea.

Marydoll My thoughts exactly. How has this been possible in so short a time. The kindness of strangers...that is the answer.

The Christmas fund is still filled with good cheer. Our grandson, Will, has helped enormously. He is now auctioning some wonderful Nike clothing in order to keep the ball rolling, so to speak.

Mr Soop is away having his eyes tested. He has a cataract and is hoping that it hasn't deteriorated too much since his last appointment.

At lunchtime we received sad news that a friend has been diagnosed with cancer for the second time. She has to find a way of explaining to her husband (who has had a stroke and is showing signs of dementia). Life can be so cruel.

Tilly good idea.

As Craig would say FAB U LOUS.There is now £15550 in the fund.

Would you like us lot soop to do a nagging act on behalf of Mr. Soop so he can have early surgery for his cataracts and that would enable him to at least drive you to various appointments and the mega day.

Are you sure Charleygirl, it would be wonderful if it was?

I have just been in to the site and the fund is standing at £13,550. I hope I am mistaken.

It is £13,550 Marydoll. Sadly not £15,550. I think Charley must be on the sauce!?

It is still a huge amount!

No you’re correct Marydoll it’s £13,550.

Think that was just a typo.

Dearest you lovely lot...*Mr Soop* will have cataracts removed in 15 months time! He is still perfectly okay to continue driving. Thank goodness.

Sweetie Pie enjoying a fish dish.

My apologies, my eyesight is deteriorating but not that rapidly. That was a typo and I did not check what I had typed. I hold my head in shame.

That is really good news-15 months is not too long.
