No wurries Kevsam, I like my siesta too . Will join you with my Earl Grey and you can have my red - though you may need that blanky and corner again !

Its a bit early for a little cheeky red, I will stick to coffee some of that nice dowe egberts with milk and two sugars please I am gasping, I haven't had a drink since I got out of bed this morning

Had a hellish day which involved me talking to the Institute who run my wedding planning course because my tutor gets on my tit - she never reads what I write and makes inane comments plus I am sure she can't count, the assignment said the client wanted an 8 piece orchestra and a load of other stuff but her budget was only £3000, I suggested lots of moneysaving ideas and even got a quote from a string quartet. Now the last time I looked a quartet had 4 people in it and was half the number of an 8-piece orchestra but it would appear that my tutor doesnt know that so she penalised me I have spoken to other students whom she is tutor to and they have all said the same. Well, I now have a new tutor but I want all my previous assignments remarked but have been told its not possible so I made another call to ASET who accredit the course for their comments. Can't you see I'm on my soapbox today:rolleyes:

Oh and I went out earlier and picked up a box of christmas decorations from a freecycler, she was clearing out an old lady's home, pity some of the glass ones have broken but I managed to salvage about 12 of these lovely old glass ones. I also have a box of plastic flowers, a hanging sign and a crochetted santa and snowman (they need a wash).

Sorry for whinging, I just needed to get if off my chest LOL.

Hello all
I'm sleepy and I've had ME/CFS for a looong time now, I also have chronic migraine *creaks* :rolleyes: I'm married to an absolutely lovely eejit of a man, no kids (health never allowed for them) but have an old moggie and a 10/11 wk old pup who I'm fostering for my parents for a few months. Good to see this place so busy, hopefully it'll be a haven from the nonsense

Who switched the lights off? I came stumbling in here looking for a nice hot chocolate with squirty cream and a flake but everyone must have gone home:rolleyes:

Yawn....its off to bed for me.

knock - knock - you not open yet ....gasping for a coffee....

Ooh sorry I overslept, I shall get the kettle on.

Would you like a newspaper to read whilst you are waiting?

Oh goody, you're open ...can I just pop my Mr A bags down here in the corner (avoiding kevsams blanky ) while I nip to the market? Heard tell they're selling scoops of 'nanas at £1 a scoop and I love me 'nanas :rolleyes: . I'll be back for my EG and a buttery crumpet shortly!

Blimey, its getting busy in here...oh heck I have just burnt the crumpets Sorry if your coffee tastes odd, I picked up the gravy granules instead

We really need more staff....

Lucky my EG comes in bags then

Pass me an apron, I'll scrape the crumpets off and no-one will notice if we butter and jam them well . Second thoughts I'll just have one of me 'nanas on mine. Anyone else for a 'nana crumpet? Call it today's special

Hiya, does this place run to Omelettes? I'm starving!

I decided to retreat to the cafe, as I have someone in my kitchen bashing holes in my door to fit a catflap - with all the noise it sounds like I'm gonna need a new door!

Mind if I help myself to coffee??

Feel free to join in Daisy.

Just enjoying a sit down amongst others with disability and no dosh, but soaking up "good vibes" in this virtual cafe.

Hi Sleepy, I have ME/FMS too (bet you spotted a kindred spirit form my user name, didn't you?). I've had crohn's disease from being a teenager, but developed ME/FMS after an acute episode needing emergency surgery and a long stay in hospital. I did gradually recover and returned to work, but in 2002 I had a car accident and injured my neck and back, which also caused a relapse of the FMS. I didn't recover as hoped, then it was discovered that I had a degenerative spinal condition which had been accelerated by the accident. So I didn't return to work, and lead a quieter life now, and strangely, although I have little Dosh, I am much happier and more relaxed.

I do tend to be a late starter though - good job Horace is around to do the early shift

PS - Hi to you too M.E..... I bet you are one of the ZZZ brigade too, huh?

Hi peeps... got a hankering for a nice apple danish if there is one going?

Its getting parky outside... so I think I will take the seat by the window... I can catch up and watch the world hurry on by...

parky - blimey I've not seen that word used for a looonnngggg time.... rather than the window seat, I've bagged one by the radiator....

Heh, I did suspect Sorry to hear about all your disasters! I've friends and a MIL with FMS, it's a nasty old thing. Thankfully, although I have a bit of fibro, I don't have the full FMS. It's difficult to know who's got what with all the overlapping that goes on, we're like a little lucky dip of diseases

Just switching the heating up..... am feeling a bit nesh

Hi Tanith, where do you come from? 'Parky' was what they used to say where I grew up in North Lincs...
