Morning all, I haven’t much time my batteries are about to run out. It’s not often I have some reasonably good news. I phone my son each evening and he tells me that my DiL is having much better days. We think it’s because some of the treatment has stopped.she probably had side affects for so long she’d got used to living with them and now is side affect free. She still taking steroids and anti convulsions medication those can’t be stopped. Knowing that things are a little better is good news. Thank you, thank you for all your support.

Hello my lovelies. At last I can open up and prepare for a wee buffet to celebrate our new refuge. 
Welcome!
Thank you for your update morethan, that is lovely to hear.

Thank you for the prosecco Galen.
The government have said that the 20 units a week limit has been lifted, which is good because I'm already up to the second week in July 
Morning everyone. I hope your son is feeling more settled this morning GrannyGravy it's an anxious time for us all and must be stressful having children at home all the time and finding ways to keep them entertained.
I'm sure just being able to speak to his mum will have helped to reassure him.
That is good news morethan.

that will help me feel a little less guilty

'Happy Birthday' to your DS annsixty hopefully when this is all over you'll be able to have a proper 21st celebration.
Thought I would share this photo with you.Our grandson was 6 months old yesterday.As his Christening has been postponed due to the virus,DD dressed him in the outfit she had bought for him to wear after his Christening as it won’t fit him much longer and they had a half birthday party complete with cake!Cheered me up,hope it brings a smile to you too.
aww lovely picture susan I remember we had a half birthday for Jackson which was loads of fun.
We had a quite different visitor this morning in one of the sunny spells .
Thank you, Galen I trust that you are wearing your pearls. When drinking bubbly, one should make the effort!
Good afternoon lovely lot. Sun is shining. The breeze has an edge to it. We are doing as we're told and keeping out of mischief.
mbmb Oh my word, please let the engineers keep us all connected via the internet and such. I would be a miserable blob if I lost touch with you all for any length of time.
callgirl1 Stupid man! Serves him right.
I'm jinxed today - twice I've written my post and twice at exactly the same place (about 3 words from the end) it has disappeared!! This appears to be okay so far but I think something weird is happening with my tablet today, overuse this week 
perhaps?? Think I'll just plug it in and leave it there today.
TOYA ❤️
Purplepixie I'm not moving far. I've a crystal tumbler at the ready for a generous taster of your Rhubarb G&T's , together with my best china plate on which to heap samples of all the wondrous food that you lot have so kindly donated.
N&G What a dear wee creature. MacS has just this morning re-located one that visited the humane trap. It is now living in the hedgerow close to the beach.
Susan56 Your photo has cheered many of us. What a wonderful idea to have a special celebration at this stage in baby's life. A precious memory.
morethan Yet another reason for us lot to smile. We shall all hang on in there and do our best for each other.
Youngest son (almost 45) is working from home. He is also the adventurous kind who normally takes part in anything that pushes his inner and outer strength to the limits. He has created The Coronavirus Indoor Mountaineering League and has a healthy following on Facebook. On April 4th, he intends to climb Ben Nevis...this he will do by climbing up and down his 7,532 stairs 538 times each way. It will be recorded and verified via internet connection. He's raising funds for Medecins San Frontieres (Doctors Without Borders). The link was established just yesterday and donations are already in the hundreds of pounds. I do believe that I'm proud of him.
morethan Keeping up the prayers! Thanks for letting us know
mbmb We have the basic tele-thingy. Same with my phone. It does the bare minimum and I'm glad of it.
It has been a fabulously sunny day. I shall have the camera at hand in the hope of a colourful sunset. Should I capture one, I shall share with you all in the morning.
Twenty five minute bike ride to the 'Simply Red' 'STARS' CD. Music does help to divert my mind from the effort .
Thinking of you all. Back again tomorrow. Take good care of yourselves. 
That's a good idea N&G I think I might have a go at the 'pub crawl'.
What a lovely photo, how sweet. Is it a field mouse?
Oooh Rhubarb G & T; a girl after my own heart Purplepixie
What lovely GC you have Susan and your GS's Christening is something for the family to look forward too.
I've had a word with Dylan Charleygirl and he's quite happy
for Tara to come for a trial period but he's not sure if he can cope with a 5.00am start in the morning no matter how beautiful she is.
You've every reason to be proud of your son soop You are lucky, it's been truly awful here like the middle of winter!!
Going to settle down now in front of the TV. Another day of isolation down and who knows how may more to follow.
TOYA
The kitchen seems a fairly calm place today. I've had a bit of a wobble- cant believe that my family will escape un touched by the pesky virus! And, I want them all here and locked in. Obviously, I'd get really fed up, really quickly if that actually happened.
