Ours enjoyed Bob the Builder games and similar on the computer and we also had some remote controlled toys. The beebots were either loved to death with arguments over whose turn it should be, or totally ignored - it was definitely a resource that needed an adult present to intervene. Children also enjoyed using the iPads to take pictures of each other - this was fabulous for tapestry as the dialogue was really useful. We had a child who could play minesweepers on the iPad too, and several enjoyed mahjong.

I wasn’t going to mention that bit as we aren’t meant to know 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤭

I didn’t mind the heat at all, it was the humidity that I found difficult.
-
Here it is, for those who’d like to see! Isn’t it fabulous.

Oh zig-zag, so sorry to hear this. I still feel slightly broken at my Dad passing, and the simplest thing still sets me off, so I know the road you have to travel. Be kind to yourself, and just let your feelings happen. It does get a little easier, but it doesn’t go away. He gave you precious time to get used to the idea that he wasn’t going to be there, and that will help with what you’ll be facing now. sending virtual hugs to you and lots of love. We are all here if you need us, my friend xxx

No, I call that jolly rude and unnecessary.

Something in the water a few years back, Louby?

Proud Mum moment yesterday when my son attended his third graduation (it never gets old) this time for his Post Graduate Certificate in Teaching and Learning, which will enable him to go from Associate Professor to full Professor when a post is available at the Uni where he works. He teaches mechanical, electrical engineering and applied theoretical and methodolical engineering (I think 😳😳) it’s all a bit above me!

How can it be Friday again already! ? !

It’s my understanding that he needs to re-teach his senses. Spend a good few minutes smelling the same thing, like coffee or whatever and re- train his brain. It really works, but it takes time and lots of repetition over the course of a day/week/month.

Absolutely, Froglet! Scones are my quick ‘go to’. Cheese ones might be nice with some pickle or chutney!
-
Hmm. What sort of things were you thinking about? Some plain scones with Jam and cream is simple, with a dish of strawberries. Pigs in blankets are easy and always a winner in our house.

What is RideLondon? Not heard about it up here in the sticks. 🤭

Sunnyday, that’s what it’s all about! We have a lady in our group who suffers from depression quite badly. We managed to persuade her to come along, and she did. She can’t knit, or crochet, but for her, the achievement is getting out of the house and being with people. She didn’t speak to us for the first couple of weeks, she just listened, but she’s starting to join in now. It feels massive.

Three more! That’s fantastic!

Cardigan finished and handed over. I’m pleased with the fit. She loves it too and couldn’t wait to put it on. I could have saved myself a load of anxt though, picking up stitches for the button band, as she just undid the top button and pulled it on and off like a sweater! 😂😂😂😂🥰
-
One from Sunnyday - she’ll be along to tell us all about it hopefully!
-
Aww. Thank you, my furry friend xxx
-
Oh fabulous! Do they have red for neonatal/keep an eye on this one?
-
Parents were the 💩 that helped my decision too. If they could just have dropped their 2 year olds off and left them with us and collected them in the summer before reception, life would have been so much simpler!
-
we’d all miss you too!
-
Ooh I’d love one please! My sister has had schnauzers for years. Will be a perfect gift! No rush at all. Her birthday isn’t until December. Doesn’t even need to be this year. 🥰
-
Well done! I know that don’t have been easy, but you’re right, it’s all changed dramatically from what it was. It’s a sad state of affairs really, that such a wealth of knowledge that you have is being under-utilised and now lost to the profession. Stay with us, won’t you, and let us know what your ‘next steps’ are? Xx ask the lovely Steve if he can help you to stay on. X

Completely gorgeous! Are you taking orders for them?

Looking forward to seeing a pic of that on the other thread! 🥰
