    I watched the entire second series of Scandal yesterday :eek:

    At least it meant I was occupied whilst sitting down resting.

    Thanks for your lovely messages I really appreciate them.

    El, I have tried master tonic before and it definitely would be a good idea to make some up. Thanks for the reminder.

    I'm back to see the Dr today, I feel like I have my own parking space now, and after that will finish the washing and ironing. I have two tasks to do for work but after that it will be a day of rest.

    Best wishes, Tilly x

    Tilly, this year's bugs seem to be really bad: sitting and watching Scandal seems a really good solution!

    I'm interested in what the master tonic is ... any clues?

  • Hi Tilly

    Just managed to catch up and I am so sorry that you have been poorly - sounds really rough.

  • No washing or ironing done. I saw the Dr, then home and back to bed.

    I cannot remember feeling this ill or weak - ever. I feel like a limp lettuce leaf :(

    I seem to have lost two weeks to this bug. Am sincerely hoping I feel better soon.

    Thanks for dropping by.

    Aw bless, hope you're on the mend soon, we have shopping to do :T.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Hope you feel better soon Tilly, it's not nice being ill for so long.


    I know I don't post that often, but I'd like to say, due to the positive attitude[sp?] on this thread and the tip's and idea's I'v picked up from here, I'v made my first over payment on my mortgage :-], so thank you everyone for the encouragement.

    Tilly, you sound like you've got the same that I picked up in mid-December. Its not a light thing, it really isn't - its only now that I'm feeling I can work at the same pace. Please take care.
