    Hope you feel better soon and that when the phone comes back you get more than expected!
  • We have snow here in Nottingham but we are well served with gritters as I am on a bus route. I have been out today, just because I could! I was surprised at how many people were out and about.

    Sorry to hear you aren't feeling great but I am impressed you sorted the ironing pile. I am not sure if I hope you are well enough to go back to work though.

    Take care honey

    All I seemed to have talked about the past month is illness, I don't do being ill very well. I will be in work tomorrow I am ok to come home if not 100%, without it causing a problem. Besides I have packed my salad now.

    Hope you're feeling better soon. Soup as well as that salad might be a good idea.
    Your beloved Cumbria is looking super pretty at the moment - the fells have blankets of snow on them, and over towards Solway looks much the same. Little has fallen in the towns however so it's not causing chaos as yet.
