Morning all, there will be no new chat thread for April....
Haha, April Fools, here is the new chat thread for April!
If you want to catch up on March's chat you can click here but it will be closed for replies.
The chit chat thread is for:
"Daily Life chit chat for bloods, scans, appointments, going shopping, cutting grass, reading, watching some thing decent on TV - whatever your day has in store for you. That is daily life!
Even having a laugh, that is a normal life, and we all have it.
If you have a special topic please start a new thread so people that wish to see it can, and can comment."
The flowers are amazing Stella, as are you my friend, and why not have another holiday, do you have anywhere in mind, It's the Harrogate spring flower show this weekend, lovely town and show, one of our favourites.

Hi Stella, lovely flowers.
You were right about the addictive potential of wigs, number 2 arrived earlier although the first one was just a topper if that's the correct technical term lol

Thanks Eddie! If I am not having chemo on Monday, I am definitely going away for a few days as the weather is excellent.
How are you doing? How is Leslie doing with her chemotherapy?
Well done Mrs Patrick! Topper is hard work as it has to match with one’s own hair. Wig is much better as one can have anything one likes!
My 4th wig has arrived yesterday. It is very similar to a previous one. But this one is low maintenance so I should be wearing it for a bit longer . It takes a few wigs to figure out which colour, style, and fibre suits oneself more.
If you could let Mrs know that heat resistant fibres are more realistic but high maintenance. It will need heat treatment frequently. So curly long style is going to be very hard work. I would only have this type in short or straight style unless she likes doing her hair a lot.
Synthetic- not heat resistant fibres is very low maintenance but can be quite shiny. Need to make sure the colour is multi dimensional or it can look very false.
Happy shopping. X
