  1. Quite a lot of Covid in our village and surrounding area! My Mum had her Covid booster last week thank goodness and had no side effects at all. Had her flu jab at lunchtime and had a sore arm already! Apparently this years flu jab has been very painful for most people! The weather here today is awful, just said we are going to have to start putting the dehumidifier on in our cottage soon!😢. Not even wanting to think about the C word this year but saying that did buy a couple of presents for my son whilst online last night! Have had all my brothers family visiting this week from Kent, which has been lovely, but the time has flown way too quickly. Have a lovely weekend all.
  2. I will be watching and agree to keep the discussions on this thread, I will be able to find it then!
  3. Louby Lou I have to tell you that I feel like a different person now I have left. I didn’t realise quite how stressed I was ALL of the time until I got out. I still can’t believe that I feel so happy that I have left, never in a million years did I think I would feel like this. I had to pop in today to walk the new manager through her first wages sheet and funding task and I couldn’t wait to get out again! Even seeing the children and the changes I didn’t feel one emotional tug at all.
  4. We are. And I am now craving Garibaldi biscuits! But not with chocolate!
  5. Definitely a day to be super proud to be British. What a moving and totally unforgettable day. A beautiful and fitting send off for the queen. May she now spend eternity in the arms of her beloved Prince Phillip.
  6. Ahh, knew he was somewhere else to go.
  7. Charles and Anne must be emotionally and physically exhausted and my heart goes out to them. To do what they are doing with such dignity is truly amazing. I thought todays events were very moving and beautiful. I think Charles has to go to Ireland on Friday and then I hope the family get some time together to grieve like a normal family. Im finding myself so emotional and raw with this and have shed tears for the queen when I still can’t for my Dad which I don’t understand. I keep thinking how emotional he would have been with all this and how he would have been so proud of how the queen is being respected and all the pageantry. He loved the queen so much and was so honoured to parade past her once at the Cenotaph with his Korean War regiment.
  8. They will probably continue to ripen through September I would imagine (as long as we get some more sun!)
  9. It’s very sad, what a remarkable lady, a true inspiration. It feels very surreal.
  10. This is the musical not the film. Xx
  11. I’ve had an annoying cough for the last 3.5 weeks finally realised maybe it was a bit more than a cough so contacted the doctor and have got antibiotics for a chest infection and drops for a mouth and throat bacterial infection! Had to have a very uncomfortable conversation with a doctor about why I didn’t want to deal with him. This doctor was the reason my Dad had a catastrophic bleed and nearly died and then had the last two years of his life completely ruined. He prescribed super strong pain killers to my Dad who should never have been given these as he was also on a blood thinning tablet and the pain killers should never be prescribed without stomach lining tablets which he was not given. As soon as I said my Dads name he said “yes that should never have happened, I apologise” He had two years to apologise to my poor Dad and he never did! I found it a very frustrating and upsetting conversation. We are off to see the fisherman’s friends musical at the theatre tomorrow, so really looking forward to that. Hopefully the weather won’t be too terrible for travelling. Looking forward to NOT returning to school next week and finally handing over the monitoring of the email account etc!
  12. They look so happy, hope you all had a special day. X
  13. They are fabulous.
  14. I’m so very sad to hear this, I know only too well how heartbreaking miscarriage after natural conception is let alone after IVF. My thought are with you all. Xx
  15. Oh my actual goodness! 😲😲 Well that’s good then!
  16. Yes it is one of only three places in the uk where you can see the divide between the earths crust and the mantle!
  17. So this was yesterdays work view, the little boat in the bay actually has my husband and son on it! Won’t be such a nice view today as it’s grey and rainy and I’m only in the parish hall!
  18. I’m really terrible for this! I talk to the dog all of the time and my husband will say are you talking to the dog or me! I have to be really careful when I’m out walking her as I’m sure people think I’m a crazy lady who talks to herself!🤣
  19. We had heavy rain in the night but we need a whole lot more!
  20. Yes the same here, I got so excited and then 30 seconds later it was flipping baking again! Truro, which is about 30 miles from us had a massive flood on one of the roundabouts, cars could only just about drive through🤯
  21. It’s a small world!
  22. Used to love going up there on our holidays, such a lovely part of Kent. Since they moved back down to Cornwall I only ever go to Orpington now where my brother is, which isn’t as nice!
  23. It looks beautiful Sunnyday. My Mum and Dad used to live in Fordcombe in Kent which I assume is quite similar. Love the Kentish countryside so different from down here. Doris was a star!
  24. I saw that and wondered if it was your village!
  25. Don’t forget I’m not enjoying it I am actually cleaning peoples homes and holiday homes and in this heat it’s not much fun!🥵🥵 Only the holiday makers are enjoying the beaches at the moment. All though I did get a deserted beach yesterday morning but it was before 6am!
