Called Kathy earlier and she is fine, well as fine as anyone can be with no kitchen in use still, floor still up and likely to be two more weeks like that.
To add insult to injury, the chippie close by has just closed for renovation, now that's what I call bad timing!
J. is just being J. lol

We might get a new lady joining us, so can you all give her a big welcome, and show her what great support we give to each other. It takes courage for some to post on here, we have to remember that, especially now as we all seem to know each other.

Back out into the sun ......

Hi all, just a quickie, as I only meant to come on here for a mo lol, and need to get some more zzzs before I drive later this afternoon, altho I suppose I could catch a bus lol
Deanna, will pm back later, glad you are enjoying The Island, it is absorbing, isn't it?
Well done Carole, you get on that lounger and read too, you deserve a break from all your hard work and well done for coping yesterday with the children and dog and not needing the loo. I think if you are occupied and enjoying yourself, it takes your mind off the worry.
Catch everyone later, love to all, hope Gill is ok and has anyone heard from Kathy lately, hope you are ok love.
Our poor MaxiMary hasn't got her internet back yet so no contact with her since mid week when she messaged me from her workplace computer.
Big hugs, to all my pals, too many for my brain to list right now, doesn't mean I think any the less of you.
Lizxxxxx

Joyce are you there? :o)) (thats me looking for you)
Thinking of you loads, miss your sense of humour
and the dog!!

Er, and the horse tails ....xx

Well done Carole, something is working for then.

I have heard from Joyce p, and she is okay, just needs a little time to herself I think.
She knows all about us all, so don't think she is not around... she reads us all the time.

I see you Joyce... don't think I can't see you hiding behind that computer!! love.X

See you all later... I'm going in beside my FAN... and read my lovely book... *the Island* can't stay away from it too long...

Love, Deanna XXX

Morning everyone. I'm feeling quite pleased with myself as last night the friends here from Holland and my oh and I went out for tea. The men wanted to go out to a pub where children are not allowed, so I took the others for a walk with our dog round the Catedral area. And I didn't have to go rushing off to find a toilet. Couldn't have done that six months ago.
So whoooa !!!!

Still very worried about our Gill, and our Joyce as I emailed her but had no reply.

Where are our men?

Prayers to Livvi, Jules ex oh's daughter who is still very poorly xx

Caz Y how are you?

What will I do today? Iron, hoover, dust, wash paint work, clean bathroom? No I think I'll get my new sun lounger out and read!!

Love to you all

I too had a worrying pm from her, sent a quick message back as was trying to get ready to go out, but gave her my email address too, she is very low and I hope she will be ok.
Is anyone in phone contact with her?


Lizx

Elaine, I'm with the others here.

When I go for my blood tests, the doctor will phone me up if she needs me to change something.... add or deduct some tablets. Or tell me to come down.

If it is nothing very serious, she may have a letter sent out to me to come down, or send me a new blood envelope.
BUT if you husband doctor has not been in touch... please don't worry Elaine, you are going to make yourself sicker than he was....
Will add a prayer for him tonight.... I'm a great one.... *there with my demands to God whenever I want something!!* ;-0)

Too hot in here for me and I have been in here too long.
Hope Gill is okay...has anyone any idea??

Byee all
lots of love and be well.
Deanna XXX

Good morning all I had a very disturbing message this morning from Gill, please can you send her thoughts to help her through a very difficult time xxx

Love to you all xxx

Elaine,hope by now you have spoken to the doc and are feeling calmer.
(((((((((((((((hugs)))))))))))))))

don't panic, they obviously just want to discuss the results with you and don't want you to put it off. Do as she says and make an urgent appointment. I think they must qualify appointments and urgent just means it is not routine (which could wait longer.)

Hi Elaine, we are okay just now, and still waiting for Allan's appointment....SEPTEMBER!!
Hope you and your man are doing better than before, big operations like that take so much time to get over, and men think they should be better YESTERDAY!

I have been on a little while and I really have to leave now.... I suddenly came over quite sick.

I will come back later and chat with you all.
Look after yourselves,

dont think I can sleep yet tried sudoku that didnt work walked round the garden got bitten by a gnat or somethig now it itches had a go at my family tree but cant concentrate the dog is snoring in armchair wish I was

hi Marilyn, it might be a good idea to see the doctor, can you not see a different one if you aren't happy with the one who can't speak good English? What tablets are you on? I am not sure where you are.
If you don't want to say, you can pm me, if your like, will be around for an hour or so yet.

Hi to everyone, heard from my pal's s.i.l. that she has been at the hospice since Monday, having tests since then but is ready for visitors, I don't think my friend can make it today Thursday, as she is working and I would rather us both go together. I can't go Friday as going out and all arranged so would have to make it Saturday but that might be a day people who work want to go and she won't be able to cope with lots of visitors, I know. I hope we can get in to see her while she is there - don't know how long we have really...
Did a bit of gardening today and watered everything later on, been nice weather so hope it stays that way for Friday.
Catch you all later, stay strong folks,
big hugs
Lizxxx

Hi all
We have had a lovely do nothing much day!!


Walked round the local shops for the paper. came back, had coffee, did a bit on here, got ready and went out for lunch with friends for Tony's birthday. had a very pleasant lunch in the local pub, I had scampi followed by a sort of apple crumble with toffee sauce on it. Came home did a bit on the F Tree, had a G&T in the conservatory with the doors wide open looking at the garden. The sun went in very early here but it was still hot even though overcast.
Watched Emmerdale and Corrie then came back on here.

Hope you are all feeling OK.

Good luck to you Ben, and Carole is quite right... there is often the fear that you are after their jobs!!

Just you be the best you can be at the interview.
Tell us when you get it... x

Hi Carole, I've had a lovely day today.
Been out with my boy, had a laugh, met an old friend, had a meal out.... spent a bit of money!!
Lovely lovely day.;-0)
See you all tomorrow.
Hope you are all happy and feeling good on this lovely sunny evening.

Good night all.
Love Deanna XXXX

Ben years served isn't always a plus in managements eyes. If they think you could be a threat to them and their position, as you could be better than them, they will keep you down! Just because you don't get a job isn't a sign that something is wrong or you aren't good enough. So fingers, legs, and toes crossed for you. ;o))
