Oma, form an orderly queue

Plant, it certainly sounds like a virus. Very wise to let any chores wait. Your health is far more important. Have a quiet day. Rest, plenty of fluids, and nap if you can would be my prescription.
And just do whatever makes you feel better, be it read, watch TV, whatever you fancy.

Just a quick 'hello' from me - and Cooper, who's trying his best to sit on my lap! I have to leave soon to go and pick GD2 up from school. GD1 has an after-school activity, so just one lot of bags and belongings to carry today.

Take care, Nana and Plant, and get well soon. There seem to be a lot of lurgies about.

Nanto - I expected it to be colder. Nice surprise that the care wasn't iced up this morning. Enjoy your visitors.

Gem - I'm sure OH appreciates having her very own personal Reflexologist.

Oma - I'm having the same trouble with the dogs. They want to keep going in and out, but it's too cold to leave the door open. I had to laugh at your DS bringing you his rubbish to go to the tip - at least you didn't have to go and collect it from him!!

Hi Daisy and Cooper

We had a look round John Lewis, bought a bath mat from Next, a Christmas wreath with lights and timer from M&S, and had lunch in the Tea Rooms in Rodgers furniture shop after a good look round there. It's very nice and posh in the tea rooms, we have never been in before!

Quick cuppa now, then out again to my client.

[Qwerty]

Afternoon all, just put two apple and blackberry pies in the oven, OH looked at me daft when I said they were going in the freezer silly boy !
Sounds a good day Gemma especially the tea room bit
Ive commented on my celebration page about yesterday but a good time was had
Hello and Goodbye Daisy 🙋*♀️
Plant you dont sound any better nor Nana these things take so much longer as we get older to clear up the days seem so long hope you start to feel a difference soon and anyone else feeling off it
Oma what a pity about the rubbish German market but then again you are used to the real thing 🎄 Still good to be with your friends that’s what matters most
Nice lunch WG you can’t beat someone else cooking 🍽
Dil called in for a coffee this morning on her day off, was nice that she did that . we don’t spend time without the kids so we were able to have a decent conversation
Tomorrow is pick up day of my littles and home for tea till mummy comes , apart from that nowt much happening ,enjoy the week ladies

[WeeGranny]

My goodness but it's turned cold! Been to Art class and came out to find the wind had got up and it wasn't as mild as it had been. Never mind, got the sheets dried in the wind....now just need to iron them!

Hope that all the poorly people are soon feeling better and that everyone has a good week x

[Oma]

Dog and GS just gone home , we have them again tomorrow instead of Friday as other gran has appointments tomorrow ,

Got a message from Doggy day care they have had two cases of dogs with Kennel cough in today and had to send them home so they have decided to play safe and are closing till next Monday , this allows them to deep clean the brand new unit they have just opened and to see if any other cases arise ,
A very wise decision we think , they are more concerned in keeping the dogs healthy than making money ,
Its all just been refurbished with wipe down areas so it will be easy to clean but they don't want to take any chance , they also closing the grooming studio till Monday too , lots of messages of thanks and support for them shows how loved they are ,

WG the wind got up hear too and rained ,
Qwerty nice to get to chat to DIL ,
Gem like the sound of your wreath
Daisy that Cooper is daft as a brush

Would you believe we have Fireworks going off again , big massive bangs been going off for about a hour now must be costing a fortune

[Gemini]

WG, having been out several times today, it has definitely got colder as the day has gone on!
Poor OH Qwerty, seeing both those pies go into the freezer!
Good idea to close the daycare for a while Oma. No one wants lots of poorly doggies!

[Gemini]

Oma, we think the wreath is lovely and for £15 including timer and batteries, good value

[Nanto2girls]

Qwerty, apple and blackberry oies sound scrummy. i freeze mine before baking.

Had light showers during the day,but raining quite heavily now.

[Daisy]

I've just sat down to relax for a few minutes before an early night!

It did get colder, but when I left home to collect GD2 from school it had just started raining really hard

It's only 8 miles or so, but when I got to school the sky was bright blue, the sun was beating down and the leaves on the pavement were all dry and crunchy - ideal for scuffling through!! That would be me, not GD2!!

I was fairly late getting home but needed to use up the ready-made pastry sitting in the fridge so I've made a chicken and vegetable pie for tomorrow. Nanto - I did cook the veggies and chicken first. I forgot to get the pastry out of the fridge 45 minutes before I needed it, so it's cracked a bit. I'll just make out they are the holes you need in pastry to let the steam out! LOL This morning I made two lots of soup as well.

Qwerty - your two apple and blackberry pies for the freezer trump my one chicken and veg pie for immediate use!! Sometimes it's good to have a chance to chat without the children around.

Gem - the wreath sounds lovely. I'd like to have one, but we've nowhere to hang it on the front door.

Oma - there's a lot of kennel cough round here, too. I hope Storm doesn't catch it. It's brilliant of the day care to close for a week to stop it spreading. You're not wrong about Cooper. But he was so tired this afternoon when we got back to their house he just flopped on his bed and slept!

WeeGranny - it's a wonder your sheets didn't blow away in the wind.

[Oma]

Daisy is it because you have a UPVC door you cant hang a wreath ? , we have one and I hang mine on a ribbon over the top of the door with heavy duty Velcro on the inside or you could do the same and use a command hook on the inside

[Oma]

Well I've done my housework downstairs I'm off to bed soon will catch up in the morning sometime , hope your all sleeping well xx

[Nanto2girls]

Good morning everyone.
Raining this morning. Only have to go out to the post office,it's only 2 short streets away.

Oma,hope you got some sleep.
Good to hear the doggy day care are being so careful, with kennel cough being around.

Shooping coming between 8.30/9.30.

[Clover]

Morning Nanto and everyone.

It’s overcast here but no rain yet.
Work this morning then Tesco delivery this afternoon.

Oma you’re one of a kind, housework done by 4.30 a.m

Hope those with the lurgy feel better soon.

Have a happy Tuesday ladies.

[Gemini]

Good morning ladies.
It rained all night, but has stopped now. OH will get soggy shoes on the golf course I think!

Oma, we too have a upvc door, and have hook device inside.

A free day for me! GS1 day is Wednesday this week.
I have a long To Do list. How many things will be done today I don't know. On my list are:
Make 2 Christmas cakes (realistically I am likely to make one today)
Go to Costa and attempt to book the meeting room for December.
Go to the library (possibly drop audio books at mums too)
Go to the Halifax for cash for mum (not local, so in the car)
Move my summer clothes to spare room and winter clothes to our room,
Sort out clothes and make a pile for charity shop.
There is always ironing and housework to be done too!

Have a good day everyone, feel better poorly people.
