    Festive Princess my lovely girl. Sending big hugs. Rudimental woo hoo I bet that was fab (if a little loud for your Nan- haha)
    It's awful the the powers that be can't pull together and fix you. Is your appointment still for April?? Second opinion? Is it a realistic option? How is your darling Mum? And breathe Nan, ha, no more interrogation for this evening.
    Are those gorgeous god daughters expecting a visit very soon? We need you well NOW xxx
    The secret of Christmas
    It's not the things you do at Christmastime
    But the Christmas things you do
    All year through

  • Good morning. 2nd day in a row of blue skies and sun. 1st wash hung out on the line and now back in bed with early morning cuppa. Off to Petworth House today to see an exhibition of Constable paintings with my Mum. A bit of girly time, just the 2 of us. I think tea and cake may be involved! Have a good day Xmas Chatterers

  • JJ So sorry to hear that you are not keeping well. Consultants can spend time arguing between themselves but blaming each other doesn't help you!

    Betsie2010 I hope you enjoy you day trip. The tea & cake sounds good too!

    HisMissus Hope you enjoyed your holiday.
    A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, smile often, dream big, laugh a lot, and realise how blessed you are.

    Xmas Saver!
    Good Morning :D

    I'm finished :D House all organised and clean :D

    Dd's rooms are still a mess, but I have just shut the doors. She can do them herself. She is already moaning this morning because I was making to much noise at 9.30. She then came downstairs in shorts and a vest top pjs and moaned it was cold because I had the French doors open. She is now back in bed. Oh the joy of having her home. :rotfl:

    I am going to make ds a new linen basket next week out of old tyres and a plant mover. I'm also going to look for some rope lights to put under the bottom cupboards in the kitchen and above the curtain rail in the lounge. The rail is on a piece of wood which will hide the actual rope, so you will only see the light. Just hoping I can find the right lengths.

    Hope everyone has a nice day. The sun is out :D

    Fluffysox-just had an email about this tv & it seemed a good deal. http://www.tjhughes.co.uk/samsung-40-smart-led-tv-ue40f5500akxxu?utm_campaign=2014+02+20+pea&utm_source=emailCampaign&utm_medium=email&utm_content=
    Not sure if it's what you're looking for, but thought I'd post in case it's useful.
    Looks fab, we have a TJs in town- it closed (despite always having been busy, especially around Christmas) and then reopened a year later. Always go there for curtains/ bedding etc. Have bookmarked to show DH later thanks :)
