    Oh Igamogam that sound horrible. I can only imagine how horrible that feels :eek: I've had sinusitis a couple of times but that cannot be as awful as surgery :eek: I do hope you recover quickly.

    The plants will be lovely next year and today I got given some winter pansies, white with purple wings, I have planted them in a pot by Colin's house. I just hope he doesn't eat them....

    I hope everything goes as well as it can for you tomorrow taxi, I will be thinking of you. x

    Unfortunately, I'm not better yet, I have a very sore throat and am finding it hard to swallow. I'm drinking iced water and popping painkillers!

    I'm hoping it eases off by tomorrow as I have to sign on and then do a stint at Pr£t. I can't afford not to work, money situation is dire this month.

    I decided against riding the Captain, much to his relief, I didn't want to push my body too much. So we played in the indoor school together, then had lots of cuddles. Very nice.

    I still haven't done any admin, maybe this evening....

    Hot milk with some honey stirred in is good for sore throats, if you can manage that? hugs x

    Milk was my only purchase today and I have honey in the cupboard, so I'll try it tonight as my bedtime drink.

    I had this done years ago so can sympathise....... have you sneezed yet? Let me give you some advice - DON'T!!!!!!!! I know it's impossible to stop really. But when you sneeze.............. well once your nose starts running........... you'll realise just how bunged up you were before.......... I think I lost about 1/2 stone.......... sorry, tmi :o. Hope you feel better soon, amd you too PIQ :).
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
