Morning all, not been posting as we have a house full of cough, cold etc. We're running out of tissues! We've told DS2 that we'd better not pick up DGS later, don't want him enclosed in the car with us. Hopefully by Wed. we'll be a lot better.Meals are a bit pot luck as we've not really felt like eating much.@Chrisca , how upsetting, one of DH pleasures has been watching a fox emerge from the trees across the road, sometimes he still can't get comfy in bed after his op, or he wakes up & can't get back to sleep so sits in his chair in front of the window watching the night time antics.RR, poor RobI haven't read back for days but will try and catch up soon.

Morning everyone just I met my friend for a coffee and a catch up this morning we always go for a walk first I’ve bought some sponge insoles but I struggled but I’m just trying to keep moving I’m doing my excercise and stretching but it’s easing slowly I’m absolutely worn out hobbling about. Chirsca what a shame about the fox poor thing I know that some people don’t like them but they are one of my favourites.RR poor Rob it’s shocking when there is people to help him and it’s not been put into place . It’s nice and bright here but chilly I got all my washing dry yesterday including a couple of dog walking coats. I’m making another roast dinner tonight plenty of meat left of yesterday otherwise I’m putting my feet up I cleaned the house right through yesterday hubby washed the paintwork outside when he had finished cleaning the car we have some pots to tidy did a few yesterday but they will get done another day. Hope everyone who has these coughs and colds are feeling a bit better . And I’m missing Taff if you are reading along I hope you are alright. Thinking of all the poorlies hugs to those that need them have a good day everyone whatever you are doing9

Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll be back next week but I'm going to Germanyon Wednesday to see a friend, then the day after I'm back there's a new boiler installation, woop!, then down to Wales for my sisters birthday probably, so I'll be here there and everwhere the next couple of weeks...I do read [ in arrears mostly] so will be catching up when I'm back
Have you got FitFlops for your feet Izzy? Secondhand ones on ebay are a bit cheaper and you could see if you get on with them..they were really good for mine when I had plantar wotsit, I still wear them now...
