Thought I had Mr N's pain meds cracked for a mo but see a no no for cats. OH well.

How is your maw?

Hey there sorry love no not for cats, absolutely not, sorry - I can mainline you with cat nip if that helps at all? I've over 200 plants in my garden.

Let me know!

Maw - well next chemo session (8.5 hours poor love) on Friday and thats us for this round of 6 - experimental drug is 3 weekly for a year and scans every three months, due a scan after last chemo session and to see Mrs Consultant. Fingers crossed its now suitably abaited and there's no more nonsense.

She's escaped all flu so far and is hermiting - fingers crossed. :A

Ha ha - we were in a teeny town that is in the middle of no-where and is mostly 'independent' shops - to the extent that the only 'chains' recognisable were Weddersp00nz, b00tz and c0ffee-0-c0sta.... 'tis the only place I've ever been to, where 2 reasonably swanky 'hair salons' were closed before 1pm, on a Saturday....................................... There was supposed to be a wholefoods store there. I looked up the address and we were going to be on the same street, and they have been FaceBeing, recently, and I looked up where it was on goggle mapz... could I find it???? Today, I ain't terribly enamoured with 'local independent shops......' The upside is that the parking was affordable and the loos (if you searched.....) were FREE! :rotfl:

The 'fam' are splendidly-o-cious, ta so muchly fer asking. Cuddles aplenty, giggles and belly larfs in a goodly supply too

Sorry your wholefood shop was doing an invisiblity thing. Free toilets we have for sure but they're closed during Oct-April due to lack of tourists, local bladders it would appear and off season visitors probably need a stern set of internal muscles. :rotfl:

Only chain our side is the co - and all hairdressers appear to take the sat at 12 I'm shut route too. Why not.

Glad all is well.

Car insurance down to £144.76 with oodles of extras - and for the life of me, I don't understand. Last years insurers I booted due to ridiculus requote were the second cheapest.

Huge thanks to :money: and the moneysoopermarket for their help in this.

Rock and roll sat night people, just saved £199.40 on my car renewal with breakdown included.

Ok so it took an hour of fiddling but we got there, just to reduce it a further £10 from the first quote with free breakdown. :rotfl:

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Oh GP I'm with you there! Find myself planning my commute to and from work around where I can spend a penny before and aft! No more gulping down lemon water and hebal tea first thing in the morning - It's either/or!!!;):rotfl:

Well done on the car insurance, that's a fantastic saving! Well worth some time tweaking!

Glad to hear that Ma is surviving the treatment relatively unscathed, hope it's ultimately successful of course.


And yes laughing at the toilets; when I lived in the US mid-west they were also closed all winter, probably because they would freeze solid otherwise. I guess all those people who drank coke by the bucketful and endless pints of coffee on the go had to plan their trips well :rotfl:


Keep up the pelvic floor exercises everyone, you know you owe it to yourself!

Do love a bit of toilet humour - the local co has one btw. Its a funny one isn't it - keep those exercises going.

Quick brekkie then aff tae work. Its brrsome out there and we all need to keep warm people.

So glad it's not just me that takes such a keen interest in the location of lavatories! And yes, all the midwives implored us to do our 'pfm' workouts, but..............................................................................

Have a great day Pippi - and thanks for the update on your wee Ma's treatment progress. Good wishes and positives vibes being sent out a-plenty from this neck of the woods, to your Ma and the whole Fam. XXX
