Chat Away

[Gemini]

Knee a lot improved Oma, thanks!
It can take several days to fully work. Last night sitting for so long at a table for the quiz I would normally have been constantly moving my left leg, as I could keep it neither bent nor straight for long at all without pain., Last night I didn't have to at all! And I didn't limp when I got up for the long sit. I's still a bit 'twingy' at times, bit it's only been 3 days, so I'm optimistic

[Nana]

Thinking of Nan2 & her GD. I hope it's a special day for them with lots of happy memories.

Just been catching up with all your news, too much for me to reply to. Sorry. Glad you're all ok. Expecting DD2 & her two in a bit, so better get off & do a bit of tidying.

[Plantaholic]

I am spitting feathers here, I needed to go out to pick up some butter for one of the puddings I am making for us all tomorrow and my GD1 has parked her car in front of my garage and I can's get my car out!!! I hope I have calmed down before she comes back. I presume they are all out for lunch as there is nobody next door. I can't think what possessed her to do that.

[Gemini]

Oh how frustrating Plant!!!

[Enfys]

That’s annoying, Plant. Hope you’re not kept waiting too long.

We’ve had a busy morning. New cooker arrived, installed and old one taken away. I’ve as instructed and given both ovens an automatic clean, all ok. Cooked our lunch in it, went well so all in all I am very pleased. SIL come over yesterday evening, took my old one (they are having it) and left me DDs which was taken away this morning, so all good.

Facetimed with DS this morning, so nice to have a chat with them. They are at their beach house for the weekend....DIL went for a bit of shopping and the situation there was no toilet rolls, no pasta...so similar to here.

We are having a lazy afternoon, I was up very early this morning and I’m going to watch some more episodes of Downton Abbey, my secret pleasure.

Hope all is going well with the wedding, have a good weekend everyone.

[WeeGranny]

No toilet rolls in Sainsbury's this morning and no Heinz Beans and sausages!! Otherwise most shelves seemed to be well stocked.

Don't feel up to doing much now, so will have a look at a cross stitch kit I've bought and see if I can make sense of it.

Hope Plant got out for her butter. Maybe GD1 thought you wouldn't be going out this afternoon and would be watching rugby so you wouldn't need the car.

Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

[Nana]

W.G that's what I thought too re Plant's GD's parking. I hope that you show us a pic of your cross stitch when you finish it.

DD remembered me saying that I didn't have any hand sanitizer, so she brought me two bottles & anti-bac cleaning spray. She got them from B&M this morning & said there was no shortage of anything.

Glad you're pleased that everything has worked out so well with your cookers Enfys. Thank goodness for Facetime eh? I enjoyed Downton too. Hope Nan2 is now dancing the night away.

[Daisy]

I think we're all waiting for news of Nanto's GD's wedding today. I do hope everyone has had a wonderful day.

Plant - I hope you managed to get out and do your shopping - or raided the family's fridge!

WG - perhaps you've been overdoing things, thinking you were further along the road to recovery than you are. I hope you had a lovely relaxing afternoon, and that the cross stitch made sense.

Nana - it's good to know there are places which aren't running out of things.

Enfys - it sounds as though your new cooker is getting a good baptism, as well as a nice clean already. Glad everything went smoothly.

Gem - that's such good news about your knee. Thank goodness it looks as though it will be even better by the time you go to Florida.


The girl from training won Best in Class with her dog, but sadly not best in breed, although when I saw the best in breed in the working Group final, it didn't have the personality or presence of her girl. Still, the competition is fierce and this is the first dog she's ever shown, so she did really well. She was over the moon to bet Best in Class though. I'm so pleased for her as she's the sort of owner who always puts her dogs' well-being first, and lavishes a lot of time and love on them.

I have had such an exciting day - pushed the sucky up thing round, polished anything that was a hard surface, prepped lots of dog food, tidied the freezer before the dog food delivery, done several loads of washing, and got so carried away with the sucky up thing that I cleaned out inside my car and washed all the mud and nose marks off the boot. Plus cooking dinner and keeping half an eye on Crufts.

[Oma]

My goodness Daisy , all that sucking up dust and dirt it will need a rest ,
The nose marks are a joy arnt they Storm licks my Patio doors , why I have no idea

Enfys that smell of new ovens is a bit strong isn't it but only lasts a little while thankfully , is it easy to work ?

Plant hope you got those puds done .

WG I enjoy cross stitching when I can hold a needle its one of those things you can take your time over and keep going back too
If nothing else it makes you sit down for a while xx

Nana good old B&M you go in there for one thing and come out with a trolley full of things you didn't know you needed

[Oma]

Standing in for Nanto this morning with the graphic ,
Im sure she will still be sleeping after yesterday and last night

It rained during night but its stopped and looks like the sun is trying to break through,

How are we all today and what are you all up too ?

We taking MIL out for lunch she fancies a roast and to go out for one so that's what we are doing ,
Have a good day ladies xx

Just noticed my Clock is fast by 1 hour its only 7.48

[Oma]

Just testing see if its right now.....

Nope I cant seem to change it

[Gemini]

Ah well.... the clocks went forward last night in the States. I don't understand WHY that has affected us, but seems it has

[Gemini]

Good morning.

I will get my head around that clock change thing in a minute.
Lots of rain here overnight, but it's calm and fine now.

I hope the Nan2 family had a wonderful day and a good night in the hotel.
I hope everyone else is on good form. Sending love to those who are not.

I will go to see my mum this afternoon. More fastpasses to do, and Minutes to prepare, I didn't get round to it yesterday.
Tonight 9 of us are going out for a birthday meal.

Happy Sunday
