sunnyday Posted February 8, 2022 Author Posted February 8, 2022 We are still negative (touching wood!) Test and Trace say that we have to test right up to Saturday12th, that seems a long time, but I guess 'ours is not to reason why' 6 Quote

louby loo Posted February 11, 2022 Posted February 11, 2022 Happy Friday everyone 😁 It's been a long six weeks for us, but hoping we're on the home straight now! Our numbers have shot up now after our January intake - but lots of little ones which can easily tip the ratio's over when you have staff off😩. Not sure about everyone else but we have so many summer borns this year for both age groups (3-4 + 2-3). What's been happening to cause that 😳- and it not the lockdown as these are all pre-covid children!! How are you both keeping sunnyday? Quote
sunnyday Posted February 11, 2022 Author Posted February 11, 2022 Happy Friday and happy half-term (if you get one) So thankful that we don't seem to have caught Covid from our lovely grandson - phew - and he is out of isolation now which is great We have a four legged friend with us for a week - I think that I have talked about him before - he is a gorgeous, gorgeous chocolate lab and an absolute pleasure to care for Hope the weekend is kind to all x 2 Quote

He's just gone out after coming in a 7.30, sleeping then eating our cats food as well as a big bowl of his own... he's gone out because Andy has just gone next door to visit our elderly neighbour - so he will get more food (nicer!) there and spend the afternoon with her. He will then return here at 7-8pm, and wake us up around 3am to go out for the rest of the night. He has a definite routine going on! 1 Quote

I was hoping so - but she is feeling quite poorly...I am mainly concerned about her bloods, always a problem if she is unwell at all...would love to go and get the two little ones and bring them here, but obviously can't because of Mr S We seem lurch from one difficult situation to the next 🤦♀️ still, nothing in the grand scheme of things Anyway, I have a dog to walk before it rains 😀 1 Quote

Have made the decision to postpone until tomorrow. It’s really starting to build here now and now that the southeast also have a red warning in place it just wasn’t worth the risk. Stay safe everyone. 3 Quote
