    Congratulations Beth and to all your family.

    Lou...take care of yourself.

    Hugs to anyone else in need or want of one.

    Raining constantly and heavily here all day, somehow managed to forget to put on handbrake when I got out of car to collect DGS2 in school parking lot and it rolled into another car....not much damage done but its a big expensive car with metallic paint so no doubt it will cost me a fortune....totally my fault so can't argue the toss.

    Sleep well all and stay safe

    Oh No :( !! do you know any bodywork shops that could do it cheaper than going through the insurance??

    Ooohhh! I've been out and missed all the excitement. Congrats Beth, a lovely grandaughter and a triumphant DD I should think. Have had a quick whizz through today's posts. Island Maid: Yes, I've had several posts disappear lately, annoying when you've just finished a long one isn't it? I thought it was me, it usually is.
    Loulou: If that's a cold lovey it's a humdinger. Wrap yourself up and be selfish, for goodness sake don't try to be brave about it. As to depression I'm no authority. I just know that the one time I suffered from it I didn't want to know about anything good, I didn't want to know about anything bad, I didn't want to know anything about anything. I feel terribly sorry for anyone who has to suffer this on a regular basis. No helpful hints I'm afraid, just lots of love.
    cat-smith. Cabbage. Yum! when I was feeding a lot of school children who wouldn't even try it I shredded some up very finely and tossed it in a bit of garlic butter. I only did a small amount and announced that I had this very special vegetable ( I gave it some French name) but there was only a little of it so there wouldn't be enough for everyone unfortunately. They nearly broke their necks to be first in the queue. It was a firm favourite from then on.
    tealover: If you can't whinge here my dear, where can you let off steam? Go for it - we are all here to listen and sympathise.

    I've done nothing interesting at all. I'll try harder tomorrow.
