Oh shingles rash is painful Lizzie. I remember when my OH had it.

[Lizzie48]

This is the third time I have had it! That is why I should have known!

[Oma]

Lizzie
Shingles is horrible,
B got it in his spine when he was having chemo it spread from his groin to his toes ,
He was left with nerve damage in his left leg,
It was so bad due to the chemo they had to do a biopsy to make sure it was shingles as it didn't look like it.
I've put a pic on of it , so bad
If you don't feel the cream is working go to the Drs don't suffer.

Plant
It would be nice to see a photo of all your family,
I have just had a text from GS they got there safely and are just relaxing tonight.

Daisy
They seem to get an awful lot of holidays at Uni these days.
Poor J he must be fed up.

Gem
We have had the same quite windy but no rain,
Storm spent a lot of time indoors today he doesn't like the wind.

Nanto
Did you get your quiet day?

I have just rang my sister she has a stiff neck but I'm not surprised it must have been like whiplash hitting the bath with such force.

[Nanto2girls]

Oma, i can remember you showing us that photo before. B's leg was really bad.
Glad you sister wasn't hurt more than she was.

Lizzie, hope you feel better soon.

Didn't have a lazy day. I changed the bedding and washed what i took off.
Cleaned all upstairs.

It was very windy earlier,but i think its eased off now. Not had much rain though.

Lizzie, I do hope the shingles responds to the cream you're using. I remember my mother having it - the rash was round one side of her chest, but it was so painful I called the doctor out in the middle of the night. I thought she was having a heart attack. I do hope it doesn't go into your hair as well.

Plant, it can't be easy getting all your family together, so I hope someone can take photos of all of you together.

Nanto, what lovely cheerful flowers. Roll on summer evenings when we can sit out in the garden. Trust you to end up being busy, still it's a job less for another day.

Oma, what a relief GS & Co got to Penrith safely. It was on the evening news. I think the reporter was standing by the side of the closed A66. Poor Storm. Eva's not keen on the wind either.

What do you all feed a poorly OH with no appetite, but wants "something"? I made him scrambled eggs with cherry tomatoes on the side for lunch. Then I did salmon steaks for dinner with some pasta and a home-made tomato sauce. He doesn't want anything heavy or starchy or chewy. I'm already wondering about tomorrow's meals now! Soup is "out" it seems, and that is my first port of call for anything!!

A mug of bovril and a piece of toast here Daisy, or chicken noodle soup, but I’m guessing OH needs something more substantial. Fish in a white sauce? Jacket potato perhaps. Rice pud even. I hope he feels better very soon.
Loving the glasses Gem. Really trendy!
Lizzie, I hope you get some relief quickly. Not a good place to have shingles.
Enjoy your family lunch Plant, it’s good to have everyone together.
Nanto2, Queen of air fryer cake. I ordered some foil cake tins from Amazon, when they came today they were about the right size for an eclair! I shall hunt some down tomorrow as you have fired my enthusiasm!
Your poor sister Oma. The fall obviously shook her up. I hope she heals soon.
I have binge watched ‘Patience’ these last two days. If you haven’t seen it give it a go. Channel 4.
Have Peaceful night folks.
