    You had chocolate. That's definitely a good sign. You are on the mend. :)

    Had an emmett treatment today which is just fab.
    It is a muscle release treatment which seems to work well for me.

    Have a good week lovely readers :)

    Just googled that... had not heard of it... looks very interesting :T

    If it works for you, then it works for you, and you don't need to be bothered about who it doesn't work for.

    Hello lovely Z.
    How are you?

    Got a wee grant from my ex employer.
    So another conservatory window ordered and another wee OP made.
    Even bought some reduced flowers for £1.20. :j :j :j :T
    So very lucky and I feel very humbled.
    So the window will be completed to celebrate the lovely Karmcat's retirement :).
    On my birthday list will be pennies towards another new door.
    My lovely mum won't be happy :eek: :rotfl:

    :j:j:j and why would your mum not be happy about your new door? Pray tell :kisses3:

    I like the idea of a new window celebrating my retirement :beer:

    Hope you recover from overdoing it beanie, catch up on your rest :kisses3:
