    Good news about Mrs H's knee (hoping you get a good doc this time)

    Not good news about MIL. Such a nuisance being so far away, is there no other family closer? I assume she is still living at home alone?

    Yeah, I'd heard about niddy yesterday (but knew he wasn't ready for his announcement then), hope he finds it less abusive from the trolls etc over there.

    Hi Tixy, Son Nick more or less lives with his Nan, He has a flat just down the road. He was only out for an hour and a bit. That's all it take though.

    He's taking it hard. All being well, son Jon - The Con who lives in Cornwall will come up in the morning and If I haven't got back on the road, then he can get his mum up to Rotherham and I will follow on when the cars fixed.

    Nothing I cant fix but I need a spare part that may take till Tuesday to get hold of.

    It's Murphey's Law Just as things start to get a little better it all goes pear shaped.

    Good Job I'm resilient.
    Cheers Handy.

    Good job you are so 'handy' at fixing things handy, as well as resiliant.

    Well caught there Ames!

    Hi Ames, If you caught my last post. Meeting up for a beer with Numpty and yourself will have to be put on hold till we know what's happening with MIL. Will let you know how we're fixed when we get up North.

    Cheers Handy.

    What a complete nightmare for you and Mrs H. Glad you've had one piece of goods news today about Mrs H's knee, but the rest is awful. Hope you mange to get the car sorted tomorrow and, if not, Mrs H manages to get to see her mum. It's awful when elderly relatives start losing their balance and falling - same thing happened to my mum last year, it's very worrying.

    Be careful with all that driving though.

    Let's hope niddy's happier in his new home, should be troll-free anyway.

    Take care

    Hi everyone :hello:

    Hope you have all had a good day - I can see you have all had a good feast with all those cakes and coffee, they look so delicious but I'm trying to convince myself that I don't want any - no that didn't work:rotfl: so is there any left for little ol me?

    Spoon - not sure if it was you who asked if I'd had any time to myself but the answer is no not yet. Unfortunately my DD flat was flooded this morning by the people above. The celing, wallpaper and flooring are all ruined in the hallway so it's now a waiting game til they decide what compensation she will get and whether they will do the redecorating or not:( Long drive again tomorrow so probably won't really get to wind down until next week. Just have to keep up with the red bull and pro plus:eek::rotfl:

    Anyway folks, just a quick check-in tonight as I'm off to bed. Take care all, keep 'em peeled;) and maybe catch you all tomorrow.

    Nite all.

    Hi BL
    And what a bloomin' nightmare for you as well, not what you really need at the moment either.

    Be careful with all that driving, as Tixy said, if you feel really tired, pull over and get some fresh air, don't risk it

    Take care
    ((hugs))
