    Lots of love KC, take the time you need to get back up to speed and I hope that all the necessary administration gets simpler as you go. I was taken aback by the funeral director getting that particular word wrong :eek:

    Thank you, kind mse people :) I went back to bed, actually, took it nice and easy. I have a ton of emails to send to rellies who came to the funeral, but they'll be fine to do tomorrow.

    The whole mis-spelling thing was a surprise :eek: nine mistakes on four pages of A5 - admittedly, the 'funeral' mistake was a transposition, though I didn't particularly like being nitpicked on that, that it wasn't a spelling mistake. Funeral isn't spelt "fuenral". I've just realised that even that is better than "funreal", which is the other way it could have gone _pale_

    All I've done today is gather a few laurel prunings for the binmen tomorrow, and put my name and address in my 2017 diary ... and I don't care, either :) my mother would undoubtedly approve :)

    Hope everyone has a good weekend - for me, it's pootling about on Saturday, and seeing my sister on Sunday.

    xx

    KC, so sorry to hear your news. I'm glad it all seemed to go well. Take it easy on yourself xxx
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort
