    Good morning :)
    Bins are out, dog fed, breakfast had, garden watered (didn't have time last night after my car ordeal :o)

    My friend is in a bad way :( Her daughter wasn't allowed in to see her, as she had tried again & tied something round her neck. I really hope they are keeping her under a strict suicide watch. I don't know much about these things.
