    Snuggle down, Hbbb, and keep warm and hydrated. xxx

    Thanks A*M - have downed gallons of lemon and ginger tea, so have managed to stave off dehydration headache!

    Hope you feel better soon Hbbb. It's rubbish being ill, but not so bad if you can relax and rest it off (while browsing on here) :)

    :wave:

    Thanks Janey ... definitely much more rested today - slept for 12 hours solid last night, which has worked wonders! Hope all's good with you too, must catch up with your thread this week! x

    Still thrifty though, after all these years:D

    'one ingredient short of being a good soup' eh? That sums up most of us!

    Your stashbusting number is impressive - well done.

    Do ease back into going at life full tilt...

  • Morning Habibiboo, sad to read about the sparrow family :(.

    12 hour sleep is amazing - hopefully you feel massively improved and rested?

    12 hours - that's a whole week for me :eek:

    Poor sparrows :(
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Glad to read you are up and about and at the coal face once again. Poor sparrows. Tsk Tsk to magpies.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Many thanks Watty, Tilly, GoldieGirl, Slowly Fading and Secret Saving Squirrell, resting has made a big difference (I know I should follow Dr's orders and do it properly more often as a preventative thing, not when I'm too sick not to do it).
    Ta for your kind thoughts about my little sparrows too, the world of birds is full of violence, it's quite unnerving to see it with its full, raw force of nature.
    Hope you're all OK. X
