    We all luffs you :)

    We also luffs Nikkster, whose absence has been noted. I'm not the "contacting people type" as I don't know how to do it/I do it badly ... but I think of her daily too.

    And I luff you all too!:iloveyou:

    Excited about the potential home move PN, if you need a hand I can give you a good reference for my home movers service ;)

    And all the best GDB. It's tough having major bits of you removed. And I ended up having 4 or 5 surgeries in under 3 weeks last summer. I focused on stupid stuff like enjoying the anaesthetic. Positive vibes coming your way.

    Also Doozergirl - I owe you a PM. I've always been a bit rubbish at replying to things and I'm pretty forgetful nowadays and have a lot going on. Not a good excuse though, I'm sorry!

    It's okay, Nikkster, as long as you got some use from it. I am often terrible at replying to PMs - much more reliable on the forum!

    I'm sorry it's still going on for you. I hope I didn't say anything stupid.

    You didn't say anything stupid at all doozergirl.

    For everyone else - I cheekily asked doozer for some advice on picking a shower. I'm finally getting my bathroom redone (its needed doing since I moved in, 2013 :eek:) and as I very much doubt I'll be doing this or any other bathroom ever again I'm trying to have exactly what I want (in the most MSE way possible but I've got expensive taste!). Doozer very kindly made some suggestions :) I'm still trying to make final decisions on a load of stuff but I'm planning a trip to the plumbers merchants tomorrow...

    Nikkster!! So lovely to see you xx
    We made it! All three boys have graduated, it's been hard work but it shows there is a possibility of a chance of normal (ish) life after a diagnosis (or two) of ASD. It's not been the easiest route but I am so glad I ignored everything and everyone and did my own therapies with them.

    Hi Nikkster!

    Glad to hear that you are managing to keep all the plates spinning.

    --

    I saw the ISS for the first time late last night. I called to OH to look out of the window and thought he knew to look out of one of the front windows, only after he commented that he could see a red and green flashing light did I realise he was looking at a plane from the wrong side of the house!

    My election vote seems to have paid off, though at the expense of my previously supported party.

    Normally, we manage some sort of compromise. In the case of Brexit, that doesn't seem to be happening.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    As I see it equal numbers of us have voted for no deal as a second referendum. I'm not really sure how that can be resolved, especially with the main two parties bogged down with internal politics.

    Blimey.... had no idea there was any such thing.

    How can you NOT be tempted to post stuff more often?
