I’d never met my cousin’s daughter, haven’t even seen my cousin for years, but we keep in touch so it was still a shock. I really feel for her it must be awful. I don’t have relatives living locally as I’m not originally from here. All my cousins are a fair bit older than me. My mum was the youngest in her family by a long shot and in turn she had me later in life. I’m going to send her some flowers I think.I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)7

The flowers are a lovely idea. I think it will be a comfort to your cousin to know you are thinking of them.I think a bit of sunshine is good for frugal living. (Cranky40)

I’ve sent some flowers to my cousin.On the bedroom front have bought lots of bits. Decided on a colour scheme of silver grey and bright blue. Bit of a Moroccan theme.DS and the GKs visited this afternoon. Was a lovely warm afternoon so we sat in the garden. DGS got hold of the hosepipe and drenched us all thanks to Mr SA for showing him how to do this 😡The WW order arrived minus the free cookbook, not happy about this and have sent them a shirty email 🤬I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)5
