Thank you Caterina, I'm so disappointed but have only been 99% lately so saw GP today and diagnosed with shingles. Almost wish I hadn't gone, now I know what it is it seems to hurt even more (all in the mind, I know) but at least it's nothing more sinister. Have a super day, I'll be with you in spirit if not in scabby :eek: body

eta ampersand, sorry if you don't see this in time and have to carry the soap all the way there and back
Just in sparrer - and had just put it all in a Body Shop bag pour demain. Back in the hot water cupboard it can go, to carry on maturing nicely. I will do that X5 thing and drop them off...prob. not till mid-May now.
Shingles...my mother was thus afflicted in senior years, went through Hell by all accounts[and was not of that ilk]. I send hugest sympathy. It's a nasty one.

Grrr,:( so sorry I am not there. I am thinking of you all sitting in that nice sun-trap garden (and I was looking forward to a rock cake!). I was feeling much better this morning, so after lunch I was getting ready to come, trying on loads of previous years' tops only to find some of them are now too tight to look nice :eek: (that ought to start me eating more healthily if nothing else does!), finally decided I looked fine in what I had on and then started to realise that actually I didn't feel great, why was my tummy sore? Then realised, TOTM! So cross, I'm 57 and hadn't had TOTM since end of January so I was getting quite hopeful!
So anyway, instead of being with you lovely lot I am sitting here sipping Solpadeine :mad: . Oh well, can't be helped, hopefully next time, eh! Hope you have (or had, by the time you read this) a lovely time xx0 -
Hi all
We had a lovely day but there was an inconvenience, the Blackheath place was closed so we put a note on the door and decanted to the pub across the road. So, Ivyleaf, thank you for imagining us there in the little garden, instead we sat in a rather cold shady and windy courtyard in the pub. Sorry you could not make it, but there will be another one soon, hopefully.
Regardless of the cold, the company was great and new people met each other and made friends. The chemistry was there, as always!
Jellie, Zoelikesjam and Mrlikesjam, sorry we did not see you, hope you did not get lost!
Thank you to all who came along and hope to see you soon again!Finally I'm an OAP and can travel free (in London at least!).0 -
As I sat on my train to Reading this morning I was tempted to stay on to Paddington, but I was good and changed to the Newbury train instead, where I have had a good day with my mother. Shame you were sat in a shady place, as it was lovely in the sun!Signature removed for peace of mind0
