Weather, grey, wet and very damp.. Did notice it colder last night, but it still warm for this time of the year!!Work to live= not live to work0 -
2016 starting on a low note for my with dad passing away in the early hours this morning. Ironically, he was always a stickler for staying up to see in the New Year!
He'd only taken poorly on Boxing Day and had been sleeping comfortably since Tuesday, so can't really complain at age 94.
However, he's not been very MSE and hadn't made a will, despite family requests. Doh!0 -

Happy New Year everybody :beer:
That's excellent Badrick - many thanks. Feels slightly civilised now being able to watch the news &....errrr The Sound Of Bleeding Music.........
Much appreciated.0 -
IHS - sorry about your dad. Really good innings.
Hope that the lack of will isn't too complex & that everyone involved is in agreement of things. Makes it so much more civilised.0 -

Thanks everyone. I'm doing OK, mum is being stoical for the moment - still sinking in TBH.

so sorry to hear about your dad IHS... as you said he saw in the new year.. best wishes from down south..
quiet "new year" here, watched carp tv and went to bed.. mega fireworks going off from all sides so room was lit up like a rainbow:D
the temp has dropped to 8d here. rain and wind but not horrendous like the west has..
picked up mum to visit dad today and I noted, whilst sat outside her flat block waiting, that flowering in the lovely gardens there was hebes, roses, aubretia ? , daffodils and various others...
in my garden I have a beautiful rhododendron out, clematis is sprouting,geraniums still flowering !... crazy !!
I do have a confession... I am watching the sound of music
HAPPY NEW YEAR FOLKS...

IHS Sorry to hear about your dad, my thoughts are with you and your family.
Dave Lovely photos, it has been quite a year for you!
Choille I am trying to declutter and and make our house a more relaxing space as well as catching up on all those jobs that have fallen by the wayside over the festive season.
Lucielle I hope your DS gets better quickly.
CTC It would be nice to have a link to your Etsy page, I shop on there often.Taking responsibility one penny at a time!0 -
So sorry to hear of your Dad's passing, IHS.
Remembering my Dad, who died at the age of 95, you're right that not having him around will take some time to sink in, especially for Mum. They've had a remarkably long time together.0
