I thought that I might share my little adventure: Yesterday morning I was pegging out washing - the wind was so strong that I was starting to worry that I might end up in the 'Land of Oz' 🤣 when I heard 'c-r-a-c-k' that unmistakeable sound of a tree breaking... It was our neighbour's Sumac tree - it has broken and in turn crashed through our fence... Quick call to neighbour - he immediately cut the tree (good job we are country folk and fully equipped with chainsaws!) - fence is currently 'propped up' - no sign of him this morning but surely he must realise that it is down to him to repair the fence...I do hope so

Wow Louby - £1500 that is amazing! Sorry your cat is poorly, hope he/she will be okay? Enjoy your snuggle time sounds perfect to me!

Good morning - 'tis Friday How is everyone? Last Friday we hosted our annual Macmillan Coffee Morning - last year we made £1000.34 - I had been telling myself 'don't think about that, we won't equal that and it doesn't matter' - guess what - we 'topped it' - whoop! Still waiting for the QR payment totals but already over £1000.00 - very chuffed! Such generosity shown by all. Horrible wet and windy day today but can't complain really we have had some beautiful weather - guess I will have to do some housework today as I can't be in the garden. Hope the weekend is good to all x
-
Oh Cait, I am so, so sorry - sending the hugest of hugs to you xxx
-
I see green tomato chutney in your future!

Bother! No we don't - actually nothing good in the stationery line, not even Paperchase...
-
Oh Mousie - so sorry to read that you have lost your dad - sending much love x
-
Thanks both - they are keeping her in - her BP is through the roof despite meds
-
Oh Crikey - I spoke far too soon - DIL's mum is back in hospital - 'hopefully' that sounds odd but anyway 'hopefully' another TIA as opposed to a major stroke - she went in by ambulance this time as literally no one could get to her quickly, the paramedics made the decision to take her to a different hospital and said "if this was my parent, this is where I would want her to be" she now has her brother with her and DIL is on her way...she has had another CT scan and is now waiting for a repeat MRI. Louby - sounds like you have it covered - I did have a little 'swoon' when I read 'new diary' Young froglet - youngest son and DIL have a lovely firepit which they use a fair bit in the autumn
-
Good morning - 'tis Friday Very busy, but much better week here - phew It is absolutely lashing it down as I write this - I know that we desperately need the rain - but it is battering my flowers that I have cared for so diligently 🙃 Hope everyone is okay? Happy weekend all x
-
Thanks so much louby - that is all so encouraging. I don't usually 'knock' the NHS - Mr S has received some outstanding treatment...however, this all happened on Thursday, my DIL went straight down, 111 said ambulance unless you have someone to take you - that was easy my DIL drove her to hospital where 'eventually' she was given a CT scan and that was how they diagnosed TIA as opposed to Stroke - not too bad so far...but then they released her at 8:15pm with no info apart from call in at Tesco and buy some aspirin - that's dreadful. Thankfully the 'specialist team' rang on Friday morning and gave her further instructions e.g. do not drive for at least 28 days... Oh well, onwards and upwards, she now has a MRI scan and assessment tomorrow morning so hopefully this will be informative and should lead to appropriate meds being prescribed.
-
On a much brighter note - Mr S and I have been to watch our youngest granddaughters drama school's production of 'Annie' this afternoon and very good it was too - very proud nana and granddad!
-
Good morning - 'tis Friday What a horrible week we have had ... dear friend died Monday night, not expected at all and yesterday my DIL's mum suffered a TIA. I have had to educate myself pretty fast about TIAs - I had no real understanding of the implications for her... Hope that everyone else is having a better time and can enjoy the long weekend x
-
Oh Cait ☹️
-
Good morning - 'tis Friday Phew another hot day - am looking forward to the slightly lower temperatures that are forecast for the weekend... Hope everyone is okay? I have big news! Well it's big to me 🙃 I have a new granddog - he is a beautiful Labradoodle you may remember that my youngest son and DIL lost their very elderly Chocolate Lab - their remaining dog, Golden Retriever, went into a decline, he was so depressed...his new 'brother' has been life-changing for him, he is back to his usual happy self and of course, we are all head over heels in love with the new addition! 🐶❤️ Hope that the weekend is kind to all x
-
Well - it doesn't pay to rush into things 🙃🤣
-
Oh Cait 😥 that's hard going... I do sigh when Mr S 'scrounges' yet more 'stuff' - usually wood and tools - knowing that (almost certainly) I will be faced with sorting at some point. If it helps, my late brother-in-law had loads and loads of 'specialist' books which my sister was able to give to Oxfam - she contacted them, told them (roughly) what was available and a very nice young man came and took two car loads away - they wouldn't be displayed in any shops but would be advertised and sold online... Good luck with it all x
-
Oh yes I know all about that a case of 'why did I even start this'! 🙃 At our singing group/choir on Tuesday the leader was telling us that her lap-top wasn't 'speaking to' her printer - I said "just let me know what you need, I can easily run off some song lyrics" - famous last words - my blessed printer has now thrown a hissy fit and at the moment I can't fulfil my promise - arrghh
