Enfys, so pleased to hear you are feeling calm knowing P was cared for. It will be nice for you to have GD home.

[Oma]

Enfys early days but you know P as you say was in the best place and passed with peace and dignity ,
Your DS must be in turmoil but he can’t chance not getting back to his family if he comes home , I’m sure if your DD wasn’t hear he would think again , Plus let’s face it there isn’t much he can do is there ,it’s the Horrible times we are living in .
Extra hugs to your GD I bet .
B sends his regards you are in our thoughts all the time as was Clover and Glam and Tizzy,s Paul .it just seems we have had a lot of sadness in the past 12 month Xxx

[Oma]

We got to Metro and it was very quiet ,

I came back with 3 new Bras and a small Handbag ,
B bought underwear and T-shirts.

Nothing we went for but I felt surprisingly tired walking around , I blame the marble floors they make my back ache they so hard ,
Bumped into our Niece haven’t seen her for such a long time but couldn’t hug her so we blew kisses

Back home now with feet up .

[Daisy]

Just taking a few minutes to read back on here. Oma, good news about the biopsy - I do hope all the benefits happen quickly for you.

plant, I bet you’re glad that little op is over and done with.

Enfys, I’m so sorry I haven’t been around for you xxx. You are always in my thoughts and prayers though.

I’ve read all the posts but it’s difficult to comment on all of them and my thought processes aren’t great at the moment.

Its 34C here in Sandhurst, and we can’t go in the house out of the sun because the downstairs flooring is being laid. We’re just sitting around trying to find shade. 😨

[Grauntie Mag]

‘Allo.
I’ve just had a catch up.
Enfys, I was so sad to read your news. I am thinking about you.
Daisy I hope your son has answers very soon.

Mega hot here again.I really cannot cope with the heat outside. Yesterday we went to Hyde Hall and met up with friends there. That was hot hot hot of course, but good to see friends, under a shady tree, and in the flesh!
I have achieved absolutely nothing yet today. I think I’ll carry on with that!
Try and stay cool ladies.

[Nanto2girls]

Enfys, we are all thinking about you.
Daisy,thinking of you as well.

Oma, it wasn't a shopping trip as such,we only went to pick his new phone up.
I've spent the morning setting it all up for him.
I envy all of you with OH's who are techy, he's good at DIY though.

Very warm here again.

[Nanto2girls]

A lot fresher here this morning.

Hairdresser coming at 9.30.

A few of you have poorly people,so i hope there is some good news today.

[Oma]

Morning ladies,

Nanto it’s dark and damp but still warm here but not so hot during night thankfully ,

popping to Wilko this morning and I need some yoghurts from Sainsbury’s ,

I will pop in spec savers while I’m in Sainsbury’s my new glasses I got in January I just can’t focus properly, with lock down and surgery this will be first chance I’ve had to go back with them

Hope all those with poorly people get some answers today such a lot happening to people these past few weeks xxx

[Clover]

Morning all.

Oma it’s kind of you to think about those of us who have suffered bereavements but we mustn’t forget you lost your dear brother as well.

Enfys I’m so glad you are feeling calm and having no regrets about the decisions you made about P.Your DS must feel awful he can’t come over. This bl....y virus has so much to answer for.🙁

I have been drifting along, getting up and going to bed and somehow filling the time between.Being physically on my own for so long isn’t easy.
Hopefully I’ll have company of some sort in a week or so as DD and family are coming down. Due to everything that’s going on they can’t stay with me so are renting a house in nearby Mumbles so at least I’ll be able to see them in the flesh.

Planning to make a cake this morning. and perhaps a corned beef plate pie.

Thunder in in the night and overcast this morning though still pretty warm.

Have ve a good day friends

[Gemini]

Good morning all.

I like the waving teddies Nan2
That reminds me Oma, I need to go to Boots opticians. Since before lockdown my distance glasses are so loose that if I look down when wearing them they fall off!
Clover, you are right about Oma's loss, and Glamma's is still very new too. You are all doing amazingly well xx
Is it against the rules to have visitors to stay in Wales? It will be lovely to see your family, even if they can't stay with you.

I have GD to myself today! GS is at nursery, and they are going away for a few days tomorrow which is my regular day to have them here.
We are going to Rodgers furniture store!!! Strangely she rates this as one of her favourites. Having never been with her I'm not sure why. They have lovely tea rooms however, where we will have lunch. I think a trip to The Range which is close by, will be in order too, to look at all the art and craft things. Better take my card!

A friend we haven't seen for a while may call in this evening if she doesn't finish work too late (hospital)

Take care everyone. Have good day. Really hoping for some positive answers for Daisy and WG's families.

[Oma]

Been to shopping centre and back , it was quiet being so early , so we had a wander around a fair few shops have swapped locations , Have appointment for optician tomorrow at 1pm see what is wrong with my glasses

Clover losing my brother is awful but to lose a partner is worse xx

Gem nice to have GD alone for a few hours isn’t it

Hope Daisys DS gets some results back today and WG sil

[Plantaholic]

Enjoy your day with your GD Gemini, a girly day is planned I see.

GRus has certainly been hit with a lot of sadness and worried members in the past year, I do hope your son Daisy has some good news soon and WG too, Is your Sil in Stoke Mandeville WG?

My car is in for a service today so I am housebound. DD brought me back from the garage, she had to wake me I was fast asleep at 8.15, didn't have a good night. I might amuse myself with some cooking but there again I might not. After the storm yesterday evening, it was still spitting this morning but now the sun is out but a nice breeze. I have a lovely black eye now, I am longing to soak the dressing off tomorrow when I wash my hair, then I have to apply vaseline to help it to heal and not leave bad scar. The stitches this time are dissolving ones.

Keep safe everyone, love and hugs to all the sad and worried members and their loved ones.

Good Moaning each!
We are forecast storms all day here but it is glorious sunshine at the mo. OH is golfing today so I shall muck out the study. The dust level is embarrassing.
I know what will happen though, I will look at my sewing machine, it will call me and the duster will pale into insignificance.
Clover, I yearn for a corned beef plate pie. To my shame I can even ruin readymade pastry. I will do something with chicken breasts instead.
Oma, what time did you get up? How nice to have been out and back so early!
Waiting to hear from DD2, GC4 had a nasty bite on his leg 10 days ago. It’s big and angry. She has had a FaceTime Drs appointment and he has had two lots of antibiotics but nothing has changed. He is well in himself though. Dr is ringing again today. I think he needs to have it looked at properly.
Moving on, duster in hand.......

[missy]

Good morning everyone (Good evening for me as it's 7.30 pm)

Thinking of Enfys and Daisy today

Enfys, so sorry to see that your DS can't be with you at this difficult time for you all xxx

Daisy, I'm hopeful the Drs can make progress, that you will soon know what is going on and good news will be there xxx glad you got in a sneaky hug!

Hope everyone else is doing well and coping with the heat you are experiencing over there. We have had a warmer than usual winter, dreadful ski season, almost no snow and the virus lockdown have hit the hospitality industry hard around here. I have had hardly any work but I'm receiving our federal government's jobkeeper payment which actually gives me what I normally earn in a winter season so I'm very fortunate that I met the qualifications and that my boss joined me up.

I'm looking forward to Spring now, I will be planting my 40th rose plant late this month, lol, so our garden, which was almost empty when we moved here off the farm 4 years ago, is almost full of fruit trees, Australian native plants, veg garden, and lots of cottage garden plants. Keeps me busy, easier than chasing cows around was, smells better too, lol.

Well goodnight ladies, stay safe and well, thinking of everyone doing it hard right now, much love to you all xxxxx

[Mimi]

Morning all. Just checking in to let you know that I am still around, still battling with family issues but onwards and upwards.

Don't know if its down to the changes in the weather but the old arthritic joints are giving me jip . Can't hold a cup this morning as wrist hurts . Not had pain there before, its usually my toes, fingers and hip .


Enfys you are in my thoughts. X

Daisy you are also in my thoughts. X

Sending love and hugs to all our beautiful ladies x
