  • Welcome to July everyone. I hope the month is a positive one. 

    Sending love to u all and wish everyone the very best going through treatments, etc..

  • Hi Fleabane, long time no see. Hope you are okay. Too hot to venture out in the daytime today so I'm glad I've got an appointment-free week. But four next week lol

  • Hiya Patrick. So glad you have a free week and can take advantage of this fine weather, even in a small way.

    I tend to hide from the sun and nasty insects but yesterday was so hot I found a nice shady area under the honeysuckle and sat reading, as the evening drew in and the midges came I lit my new citronella candle and it actually worked..haha

    Good luck for next week, a gruelling 4 appointments. Let's hope it's cooler for you.

    You'll have to invest in a neck fan, they are brilliant, especially in a hot hospital

    Hugs and love  

  • Hi Fleabane, haven't seen so much of you for a while. Hope you are feeling well.

    This is when I make most of you jealous, we had rain last night at 8pm and again during the night. Today is overcast with the threat of rain. 

    Now on a bright note. Our elder son and his wife were over from Glasgow for a few days last week and on the first night at the dinner table he showed us the book that he was reading but then he produced two small black and white photos that were in it and I thought to myself, are they what I think they are? They were. Two photos of a foetus. Our daughter in law is pregnant, they have been trying for years and now they have been so lucky. Baby is due at the end of December and we are aware of what could happen. Happened to us and more recently his brother, our younger son. 

    So potentially, we're going to have another grandchild! Mrs Tvman and I are so happy and so pleased for them.

    Tvman xx 

    Love life and family.
  • Hiya TVman and Mrs TVman. Congratulations on your amazing news. What a wonderful surprise for all. What a happy start to next year it will be with a new little bundle of joy (well most of the time Grinning) to live and care for. Have a good week. Love from

    Rain? What's rain? Hahaha...yes glum here today, very humid. Just doing a few chores, very tired but needs must. I am a little behind because of scan, oncologist yesterday. 

    I don't know about u, but it exhausts me mentally and physically at the hospital. 

    So just the breakfast pots to do then I'll rest for the remainder of the day
