  • Squeaks, while you are away do try not to worry about us and our behaviour :D We will write a rota for who's turn it is to suggest the index, and anyone who gives out grief gets a slap. ;) I'm sure we all want to make you proud of us!
    All the best to your Dad and rest of family.

    Thank you all. It'll still be a while before I go up to visit yet - the doctors are pleased with Dad though he's still not quite with us due to the drugs he's on. I'll be waiting until he's moved out of the HDU and given a little time to settle in, so it's likely to be a fortnight or so.

    Mum's doing well. Not looking after herself too well, as you can imagine, but her DD1 and DS2 both live close and are rallying round. Plus I always check has she eaten properly when we talk on the phone and so on.

    She'll be fine. Tougher than she looks, stronger than she thinks she is. :)

    Thanks again for all your good wishes.

    Only just heard the news, Squeaky. Hope everything turns out okay.

    Don't worry about the board. They are a lovely bunch on here. :)

    Best wishes. Jo.

    Best wishes to you and yours Squeaks! Will miss you while you are away as I am sure you have noticed I can't find anything when I am actually looking for it!!

    Anyway, just wanted to say Bon Voyage and best wishes with everything.
    oooh look only about 220 posts and I got round to doing my Avatar already!!
  • (((Squeaky and family))) - We'll miss you when you're away Squeaky; you do such a lot of work for us here on Old Style - creating all the indexed collections (creating them is a fulltime job in itself!); generally keeping the place tidy and always popping onto threads to answer all our questions and keep us right.

    This is the best modded board I've ever used in my life and it's down to that (as well as O/Sers being generally fab) that makes it such a nice "home" on the internet.

    So; we'll miss you while you're gone and we promise to try and keep the place tidy and ticking over for you coming back. I hope your Dad makes a full and speedy recovery and that you and your Mum are well supported while he'd doing that.
    Pre O/S: what's a vitamin? Does it begin with the letter e?Now: I'm not eating any of that pre-made rubbish...
