  • Thanks greent. Apparently she is in the Canary Islands!

    Resting did no good yesterday. I am going to try to get clerical things done today and maybe a job application.
  • Surely EA knew she would be in the Canary Islands?
    Tendon damage sounds painful, hope it eases up soon.
  • Thanks Elephant. I imagine it is hard to go there by accident!

    The kind of accident we all need to have when it is -3 here!
    Hope tendon improves soon.
    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 !!

    Sorry to hear about tendon damage. I also enjoyed enforced forum time when I broke down (car, not emotionally) yesterday :)

    Hope you feel better soon.

    Hope you get well soon, smallholding.
