    My Buddlea tree seems to be settling in well, hope it manages to settle and flower this year after moving. The only thing I don't like about Summer is having to cut the lawns every week.

    Emmapp - Oh dear, big hugs for you. Its a hard choice for you to make whether to continue or not.

    Euro - hope the removal van has arrived by now and you manage to find OH's passport etc.

    Sheils - sorry your Mom is stressed, I am sure she will relax once she is in the sunshine.

    Wingo - big, big hugs. It is a very worrying time you at the moment. I think you will feel a little easier one you know what is causing the problem.

    Love your Pooh pic Sylvia. I find and book a bargain holiday for my parents , book a cheap night at the airport for them and then I have to put up with them getting stressed about it!:rotfl: At least a BIL is driving them to and from Newcastle Airport and a sister is minding their dog.

    Sheils - it is very good of you to sort out your parents holiday for them. I think its just a part of getting older that she is stressing. Wish Fred would stress a bit when I find and book a holiday, worry about being able to print off the tickets etc etc. Fred just sits back and leaves it all to me. He never asks if I have got the tickets/passport/money or what clothes I have packed! Perhaps I am a bit like your Mom lol

    Thanks for all of the kind comments guys. I really appreciate it. Truly.

    Wingo that's very sweet to say. Especially when you've got so much going on yourself.

    I think I will continue and see how it goes. Bit hormonal at the moment so lord knows I can't trust myself!

    Night night everyone. Here's to lucky Thursdays for us xx

    The best of it is Sylvia I always find them an amazing deal that we would love ourselves!
    Think we have decided to stick with our short breaks this year although we would really love to go off to the sun. Just feel DD and DS3 are too much of a worry to be left with my parents who are 72 and 79 now.

    Well those removal guys worked long and hard! And as fast as they could. And they stacked that stuff in the storage unit really well. Didn't think it was all going to fit at one point, but it did. Some came back to the house, but that was planned (and a good job too). Lovely guys. Totally underestimated the job, but didn't ask for a penny extra. Can thoroughly recommend them!

    Found OH's bag, containing his personal and work laptop and medication (I got him to go down to the docs earlier to get him some more in the meantime so he's OK on that front), but no passport!! Called the OH, who's panic has since died down and got a very nonchalant 'Oh, it must be in my suitcase then. I'll have a look later.'!!!!!!!!!! COULD. HAVE. SCREAMED!!!

    And breathe! Right, where's the wine???

    Good Morning,

    Raining here I'm afraid FF - think it is supposed to dry up later. TBH my legs will be glad of a rest if we don't get out for much of a walk. DH is on a fitness kick and dragging me for miles since we did so much walking on our break. Since he is nearly 13 years older than me I feel a wimp saying I need a rest!
    Hope everyone has a lucky day.

    Good morning everybody - you got it - its raining here. I could kick myself as I was going to cut the back lawns yesterday when I got back from town but was lazy and didn't. Now I wish I had.

    Fred is stressing as there is now another new daily mag!

    Sheils - I understand what you mean about the kids being left with your parents, it is harder when you get older. I always worry about leaving my dogs with my Sister when we go as she is 70 this year!

    Lovely pics this morning Firefly. I see you have not got our rain, thats good.

    Have a nice day everyone and hope some wins come your way.

    don't blame you wanting a rest sheils :eek:
    all the housework/ironing etc is sometimes just as much exercise as walking :eek:
