Afternoon everyone
Just eating my lunch and having a catch up. I've been down to stay with dad while mam was at church.
Little one slept in her own bed till 4am this morning, before she came through to me with a cheery 'Good morning my granny'...back to sleep I growled!
After breakfast we were getting dressed and I noticed she had spots - lots of spots on her back, tummy and arms...she was delighted and jumped about shouting ' look I'm all spotty!'
So DD took her up to our local hospital - doctor says it's a virus and to keep an eye on her. Fingers crossed she doesn't get any worse.
A very quiet afternoon is planned, back to work tomorrow.
Hope everyone has a good day. Enjoy your trips Gers and Carolbee and Happy Birthday too Gers x10 -

Happy Birthday Gers, enjoy your trip. I loved Skye, & Fort William though it's been a few years since we got to Scotland.Yesterday we had the usual football with DGS, bit of a drive. He is in a new team now, 1st game with them but still the same umbrella club. He only knew 1 other player & you could tell he was nervous, and playing in an unfamiliar position to fill in for a boy on holiday. They lost so he wasn't too happy.Match in the afternoon, DGD was out with her Mum so didn't come but we picked her up afterwards so we could go for a meal, continuing the DH birthday weekend.DS1 joined us too.It was very nice but we found out the place is up for sale- we've been going there since DSons were boys so we're a bit sad about that.I've just made some beef stifado in my IPot for tomorrow, and have a small beef joint for later. DH is pressure washing the back as the flags and path get very green.Better see if he wants some help!Bye for now & take care x:heartsmil 'A woman is like a teabag: You never know her strength until you drop her in hot water'.

Happy birthday Gers.
Well we aren't seeing Chris and Crystal - Nate is spotty, they are waiting for a call from 111. They sent me a photo and I have suspicions about chicken pox, if it is Steve can't go near.8 -
Happy birthday @Gers x Enjoy your break
Glad to hear you've ticked those boxes @carolbee - I do love a pasty!
Hope the little spotty ones are doing okay @dp1 and @snoozer
We've been to DS1s to paint his bathroom. Will need 3 coats I think as covering a vivid blue (thanks previous owners) with white. Have done our housework here and I'm cooking SW peanut butter chicken pasta this evening.
I'm in the London office tomorrow so will prepared some breakfast and fruit snacks to take with me, plus the obligatory leftovers for my lunch!
Have a good evening all,
