    Good Morning All. Looks a bit grey outside this morning. Bug push to start getting the grounds to look at their best. We will say goodbye to Lord H a week on Thursday. Over 100 folks expected to attend.
    Bit wooly headed again, but Geebee your coffee is getting to work.:)

    MIL wasn't two good yesterday. District Nurse is trying to arrange some night cover to give Mrs H a break. Hopefully a local nursing home is going to be able to offer some respite in the near future.

    Right, another Coffee and away. Handy needs to be ready for anything today.:D

    Sorry to hear that MIL isn't so good Handy. Poor Mrs H has a lot on her plate and really does need a break. I hope something is sorted out soon. Please pass on my best wishes.

    It's a long time to the funeral isn't it?.. They're on their journey within 3 days here, oftentimes 2!!. :eek:

    Try and take it easy if you can today Handy, Lord H wont be looking at the grounds and i doubt he'd really care, just as long as they're neat. You are coping with a lot as well and my thoughts are with you. Take 10 mins out to meditate, it'll do you the world of good.

    Have a good one. :kisses3:

    Good morning peeps,

    Ta for the extra strong coffee GB - totally need it this morning! :D

    Sorry I wasn't on mich over the weekend, I'd forgotten to take my laptop charger over to OHs with me so after i posted post interview on Fri pm i realised that i was almost out of laptop juice :( i should have just used OHs instead but we always seemed to be doing something, not enough hours in the day!

    Hopefully il get a callback today with some good news, but im not optimistic about this one sadly. :(

    hope everyone has a lovely day, mine's going to be a long one i think :( boo!!!

    Hope you hear something, either way, about the job soon Allie. It's the 'not knowing' thats difficult.

    Numpty... are you not on holiday now?.

    Handy... When Captain Hise and Hinds arrives, offer to take his jacket and quickly get someone to sew some sardines/crabstix/something fishy or otherwise smelly into the hem somewhere, i'm not into fox hunting!! :mad:
    Had no trouble posting, if its your AV, make sure you're only running one, several different programmes are never a good idea and McAfee is a NO~NO in my book, IMO Kaspersky is a good one atm.
    Love the advice about the scotch and Horlicks, i'm a bit of a Horlicks woman myself, but without the scotch!. :rotfl:

    Spoon... If you're a bit of an insomniac, try Handy's Scotch and Horlicks concoction!. :rotfl:

    Geebee, love the fish in the jacket idea, totally agree re hunting.

    Don't like Horlicks unfortunately, but the scotch sounds like a great idea:D

    Thanks for the coffee and elevenses - I'm buzzing from the coffee now:D

    Allie, keeping my fingers and toes crossed for you.

    Handy, look after yourself, Geebee's right, the grounds will wait. You and Mrs H are doing too much at the moment, take care of yourselves. Sorry to hear about MIL.

    Busy morning ahead, back after lunchtime

    PS: My get up and go got up and went a long time ago:D
