Morning Barbra, Emma, Joan, Marion and Allan.
I hope the weather is being good to you today? its a beautiful sunny morning here be it a bit chilly in the wind.
I have just been and checked the hens and to see if my baby Sid is ok, he was laying under the fur trees, he has been a bit poorly these last few days, I think its where he may not be able to tolerate the cat flea (front line) I use, I shall have to talk to the vet on tuesday about what to use instead, I've used it before on Sid but he didn't behave quite like he has this time, he was actually sick and went right off his food, and has slept for England, which I know cats will do when they're under the weather.

As you can see I have changed my Avatar, this photo was taken on our Anniversary in Canterbury, we had a super day that day, the weather was beautiful.
The place we stayed was 'The olde Moat House' in Ivychurch, Romney Marsh, it was fantastic, a beautiful old 14th Century house, masses of oak beams and a lovely place to stay, we are going to go again sometime.
Breakfast was simply the best! especially as I didn't have to cook it.

Love Dolly X

Hello Dolly
glad you had a good time .sounds very nice ..you will have to go again & have some time to yourselves .X hope sid is feeling better soon Barbra :-)

Morning all,

knee Op PM me any time, recovery time is between 6 to 12 months
but the RA pain is no more.

Dolly nice to see you back and that you had a good time.

Barbra I will be thinking about you and double ((((hugs)))) from Rory. :-)
Why didn't you say earlier, keep your chin up,know how much it helps
when you get the support from friends I've had loads from folks on here
and was grateful for it before and after the Ops. <3
Take care all and hello to anyone else looking in.lolx

Emma x

Hi all.

Sorry to hear about all the health problems :-\ including Sid.I hope your all sorted out soon.

I was out in the garden yeasterday....clearing a bed out of big stones and pebbles,clearing away the old weedcontrol covering.Its been there for years and did the job well. Apart from a couple of ferns that grew through it. They looked ok,gave it some colour,but the roots were all over the weed control stuff.
Putting up some new panels so had to get it cleared.
Had a bit of flooding a couple of months ago so it got into a mess.

Hopefully get it all sorted out before the winter starts

Hello All,

Barbra, even though I am on the other side of the world I am sending you all my support. I'm sure that all will be well.

Allan

Morning All,

Another cold wet and windy night here.

Barbral lolx <3

Hello Emma ,Allan.Marion.joan & dolly .been tidying the garden leave`s everywhere. bright day but a bit chilly .i must tell you won a tenner on the lottery .whoopee :-D Bless you Allan & All speak soon Barbara xx~~~~~~Rory ;-)

*Holds out hand for share of the big win lol*

Morning all,

Joan pass some of your luck my way please.

Barbra am thinking of you and hope all goes well.

Hello to Marion,Dolly and Allan and others.

Off out this afternoon for a coffee with a new cousin I came across
while researching my tree, first meet so have photos and charts to
show her.

Have a good day all. lolx ~~~~~~ from Rory

Emma x

Hi all,

Finally finished my Census duties a couple of days ago. It was hard work, but on reflection, enjoyable, but certainly worth more than the pittance the Australian Bureau of Statistics were paying :-(

Barbra, hope your hospital trip went well. Fingers crossed!

To all others not enjoying the best of health, please take care and may you soon recover.

Allan

Morning Barbra, Marion, Emma, Joan, Allan, Liz and anyone else looking in.

Barbra, I hope all is well with you, have been thinking of you :o).
Emma, Is your knee is coming on ok?
Joan, I have visions of you in your potting shed, sitting on a deck chair by the door with a cuppa in hand :o) I didnt say what was in the cuppa ;o)

Weather here today is overcast, but warm enough to leave the back door open for a while, I am off to WW today.

I have to go and see mum again this morning, I had to call our GP in yesterday, she is back in bed, it turns out her BP has dropped too low, causing her to feel faint, she is in chronic heart failure and has had a few problems re: a reoccuring cough that (sorry to be so graphic) she coughs up blood stained mucous, I didn't know until yesterday that the cough and blood is part of the heart failure, I know when she gets a cough it can be the start of her heart attacks in the past, she had 3 in about a 9 month period, but her meds have kept things pretty well controlled until now, she has no pain in her chest with her heart attacks, just sickness and a cough and tacacardia.If her meds can't be cotrolled at home she is going into hospital to get them sorted, GP will ring on thursday to see how things are going.
I spoke to our GP when she had got back to the surgery, she rang me to updaye me on whats going on, mums condition is a lot worse than it was 3 months ago, she is exhausted most of the time, but her mind is still the mind of someone whos about 40, she is 83, she is alert and really 'with it' in dress sense and her outlook on life, her body just fails her, her arthritis isn't brilliant either, but at least she totally trusts our GP which I do too.

have a fab day all of you. :o)
Love Dolly XX

Hi Dolly,

Sorry to hear about your mum. It's pleasing that both of you trust the GP, that is an important point. Although your mum may be having some discomfort, I'm pleased that there is no pain. There really seems little more that I can say other than be strong. My thoughts are with you and your mum

Kind regards

Allan
