    Hi guys, not too bad here except Dd lost 2 of her pet snakes so OH wouldnt go and see them :rotfl: but they were retrieved after playing in the living room while everyone was out.

    Am going back to the GP's on Wednesday as I am a tiny bit out of my mind with this pain and have run out of ibuprofen gel.

    Pippa am so sorry the doctors didnt have a better way of expressing things to your OH, must admit we have had negative comments too.

    F1 glad you got a date for your consultation. You will be so much better after the op, my friend had hers done and came out in a positive frame of mind, did as she was told and got fit very quickly.

    Chalky, glad you are keeping the tapas industry going - they will love you :rotfl: keep posting pics on your blog, I love to see them xx

    roamin, sending hugs, hope you are doing ok xx

    Mrs Twins, will hopefully get to the post office this week and send you the other 2 blankets, sorry Im so slow at the mo. x

    just been reading Chalky's blog - will you become a white cotton sheet importer for us all Chalky?! They sound amazing value if difficult to iron!

    Love to all, hope you are all coping with the cold, the damp and illnesses

    morning all
    still wet and miserable here bit foggy as well...never mind, and for once I don't have to go anywhere so I can get my sparkles out and start trying on for the cruise...to be honest the clothes aren't the problem...it's the body :eek::rotfl:but I daresay I will find a frock or 2 that will fit...I am really looking forward to going away for a bit of warmth, OH feels the cold so much since his cancer as he lost such a lot of weight 3st:8lb in total, and it will do him good and MAKE him relax a bit

    chalky - I still use egyptian cotton sheets never anything else, I love the crisp crackle when I snuggle down into them, and the snap of them on the line blowing in the breeze,they are a bit of a pain to iron at first but when they have been washed a few times they do get easier and they last for years :)
    Seakay - :wave: hope all is well with you

    so many MIA's at the mo hope you are all just busy and not poorly,
    Well I better go get sorting things out, sending luv'n'hugs to all

    Well you certainly both deserve a lovely cruise, what a perfect break for you both to re- charge your batteries. I hope its as good as it sounds, where are you going?

    Im a bit better today and have a day off to potter about, good job cos I can't go out :o Oh took me to B&M yesterday but couldnt walk all the way round so we gave up, it was full of junk and crazy people anyway. Going to do some sewing now as I have lots to get done for Christmas. :)

    afternoon all
    hope everyone is well
    finished the cross stitch card i was working on just now so need to get the ironing board out in a bit and press it.
    went to see ~The Sapphires last night , a really good film that id recommend. about an aboriginal girl group in the 60's who win a chance to go and tour Vietnam singing for the troops, thought it would just be a poppy film but really dealt with the racism and discrimination the girls faced the horrors of the war in Vietnam. very thought provoking

    Hi everyone. I've had a rotten chest infection from the cold I had a few weeks ago, and the horrid coughing has been wearing me out, so I'm sorry I've been MIA. I'm feeling a lot better now, thanks to antibiotics and lots of naps, and will catch up with you all tomorrow.

    Love to you all.

    KathyXX
