Gosh - that is really sad and so interesting to have first hand info as I'm sure most people imagine that dentists are absolutely 'rolling in it' (cash)

Cheeky! (but very true!)

That sounds entirely reasonable to me - you don't want to rush into anything 🤣

Goodness Cait - sewing scrubs that feels like a 'lifetime' away (not that I made any, as you know I can't sew for toffee!) Lovely to see you posting on the Friday thread ❤️

Hi fm So good to see you posting ❤️ So sorry that I can't help you, as you know I am long retired, can't believe that you haven't had any responses, must be so many in the same position, hopefully this will 'bump' for you...

Good morning - 'tis Friday How is everyone? Not long now - end of term/school year is nearly here! Granddog has been just lovely - he will be going home tomorrow - will be 'replaced' with a different granddog next Friday! July is certainly dog sitting month for me - all good very happy to have them. Two youngest grandchildren have had fabulous school reports - very proud of them ❤️ Loving the tennis! Not loving these mad temperatures! Onwards and upwards Have a good weekend all x

That is so special - go zigzag's mum! Most of our nearest beaches are flying 'brown flags' - awful situation

Good morning - 'tis Friday How is everyone? The practice run with granddog in preparation for his solo stay went well - not sure what I was so worried about really - hope that's not famous last words as he arrives today for his week long stay! Didn't enjoy those extreme temperatures at the beginning of the week - must be an age thing - at one time there would have been no such thing as too hot for me 🤦‍♀️🤣 Loving the tennis! Hope that the weekend is kind to all x

Anyone for Tennis?

Look at you with the gardening young Froglet - way to go!

Good morning - tis Friday! How is everyone? The nicest thing happened yesterday: I was at the GP's surgery pharmacy and as I left I ran into one of my 'old' Pre-school parents and her now grown up daughter...no time to talk beyond "how lovely to see you, how are you"...imagine my surprise when yesterday evening I received an email from 'mum' updating me on the 'children' and apologising for not having time to chat...I can't believe that she still has my email address and what a lovely, thoughtful thing to do... I have a fairly busy day in prospect - one of my 'granddogs' will be delivered to me anytime now and will stay for a few hours - this is a 'practice run' as although he is very used to being here it has always been with his 'brother' who is so sadly no longer with us - he is the biggest, most beautiful retriever but he is also a big 'wuss' and I'm not sure how he will cope when my DIL leaves - hopefully I am worrying about nothing...he will be coming for a week long stay starting next Friday - wish me luck! 🐶❤️ This evening I am babysitting two youngest grandchildren! Have a lovely weekend all x

That hasn't happened yet - I am still working in 'terms'🤦‍♀️🤣

Full transparency - yes I do! It is however a very small price to pay 🤣

Good morning - 'tis Friday Another week has just whooshed by... How is everyone? How amazing is this weather - I am so enjoying this retirement lark - it's been a while now but I am still 'surprised' by the idea that I can do as much or as little as I like - think today it might be the latter! Have a good weekend all x

Thank you young Froglet - we were so lucky all restored by lunchtime - phew - hard to not overreact think we are all scarred by the events of summer '22!
