    Fuddle, you may remember that my signature used to be, "Diplomacy is the art of letting someone have your way." Well, I reckon that is exactly what you have just done.

    Well done you for coming to a sensible agreement with your sister. You are both obviously working very hard on your relationship and it is paying dividends.

    Enjoy your moving preps. It sounds as though things are working out wonderfully well.
    I hope that continues - you so deserve it.

  • That is the post I've been waiting to read FUDS, 2 - 3 weeks to your new home and you and your sister on the same page over mums house too? it's a RED LETTER DAY!!! Just you concentrate on getting sorted out and installed in FUDDLE TOWERS and leave us to poddle along here until you get time to post that you're in. I raise a virtual glass of bubbles to you all, you deserve this pet, all of you have never complained at the changes and moves imposed on you by circumstances beyond your control, you deserve your own home, a settled life and some much needed contentment in your lives. It will be a truly happy day when you move and settle xxx.

    You're so right Lyn . It's a wonderful outcome all round . I love Fuddle Towers - you do realise Fuds it will forever be referred to as such by us .
    I already did the happy dance a while back so for now I'll raise this hot chocolate I just happen to have at my side , it's dark , damp and miserable here again today and tea doesn't warm in the same comforting way .

    Are you and Himself better now Candlelight ?

    We should all now start beaming those new home vibes towards dear Monna and hope for a quick reunion with her belongings in her own space .

    Candle is beaming the light and calming lavender scent towards you and yours Lainey ., try to rest when you can when I am tossing and turning with a head full of worry I find a couple of herbal quiet life tablets help dull the edges and slow the panicky feelings xxxxx

    It is better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness.

    There but for fortune go you and I.
  • No Polly, we are full of it. I am reading along, hopefully will post in a day or two. It looks as though her Majesty is not alone with a hacking cough, we keep each other awake at night.

    Well done Lainey, you know your Mum so well, she doesn't need to suffer needlessly.

    Take care all

    Oh candlelight so sorry you're both still struggling , it really is the gift that keeps on giving isn't it ? I keep thinking I'm better and then it starts again . Take care and keep warm . Are you managing to eat ok ? I've been picturing you with the soup maker to hand . In fact I've been thinking of getting one for my middle daughter who works long hours in a challenging career and I suspect is sometimes too tired to make much effort food wise . Are you happy with the model you have ? I don't know much about them but they have some in the small coop nearby .
    Much love

  • I am happy with it Polly, it is a Tefal, and that is about all we are eatng at the moment, although Himself is just having a tin of rice pudding.

    The soup is done in about 25 mins, and then keeps it hot for another 30 mins, I think a good investment.

    Take care

  • So sorry you and OH still ill Candlelight. I've had this bug anit does drag on. Hope things improve soon.
    And thanks for those asking about me.
    Use it up, Wear it out, Make it do, Do without.

    Thanks Candlelight I'll look in the coop on Friday when hopefully dd will be well enough to finally have her steroid injection . Wishing you both a more restful night with less coughing xx
    Aot I hope you are getting better too . If a foreign power wanted to invade right now I doubt much of the population are in a fit state to fight back :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    Keep yourself warm and cosy , we'll all dream of an early spring and the days when we start complaining about the heat .

    Lainey Just I just spotted your post on the daily . I will have you all in my thoughts and praying your darling mum is released from her pain and finds peace .
    Drive safely it's very wild and windy up here in the north . Staying at the hospice is a good plan . I think you mentioned a one hour journey in the past . Take care love .

  • Lainey sending you gentle hugs and much love. Mum is ready to leave now and I hope her passing is peaceful and you will find comfort in knowing she isn't in any more pain.

    Depending what you believe in, I believe your Dad will be waiting for her and they will be together again and also with your DB

    Much love Lainey
