Recipe of the week

penguinmum's creamy fish pie: smoky, seasonal fish in a creamy white sauce with grated, rather than mashed, tatties on top - a meal of the highest comfort-food order.

Right MAS

I am going over to the other thread you have started. All your messages have popped up here at once, maybe it is becuase this thread is so large now, it often takes ages for me to load. Let's start with a shiny new one.

Am off to reply to you over there.
Perhaps we should stick on this thread and I'll look for it on Threads I'm On instead -avoids confusion I hope !
Anyway, this is what I was trying to post...

Am sick of my messages never getting through - I have had 7 attempts to reply to Cakes' last post- am starting a new thread ....
this is what I wrote anyway.....

righto, this i my 7th attempt to reply on this thread - everything keeps disappearing !
My assessment is on 25th,and am told to allow two hours for it,crikey !!
Saw a lady in town yesterday who was having rads and finished at about the same time as me and she's just seen the onc. for her follow up - they are running very behind I know- so I emailed to ask about mine - I tie myself in knots in trying to be assertive yet not too needy or a nuisance - I suppose I just like to feel that everything is done in order. Am not worrying about my health -am sure breast is fine and dandy, it's more my emotional state which troubles me.
Anyway, they have made me an appointment but it's at the same time as my assessment so have emailed back and left a phone message...arghh !
Special thoughts for RWU today and of course KurriKurri - hope all ok..and of course you Cakes and Morph.
no,still not working for me on favourites...
a candle is a lovely idea Cakes, especially nicely scented one. Am sending loving kindness and golden light,not too weirdy but a Buddhist thing...my mum who is one,surrounds loved ones with a golden light to protect them- always very comforting.
I think it's something to do with favourited threads - I have accessed this on 'threads I am on'...
is it worth continuing on this or trying the new one - don't want anyone to think we've gone AWOL grin

I know RWU doesn't set much store by what we (in our house) call "weirdy beardy" therapies and stuff, but I have lit a candle because i am thinking about her today as she goes for her scan.

It has a nice smell too, so we are all winners! (Kenneth Turner 'Blue Tangerine' MAS, as I know you are a connoisseur of smells)
well that worked, so maybe this thread is mended ?
have started a new thread as I can't get anything to come up on this thread here

Yeah I have had a few messages get lost as well!

Know what you mean about the anxiety as well - I am usually the least anxious person I know (too lazy to worry, I think) but i have felt a bit of anxiety over the last week, which is MOST unlike me.

maybe it settles down.

Have you got anything sorted ref your CBT?
do you know,it took me three goes to get this message to come out...this new format thing is crap
I do think it increases the 'influence' - after just 1 glass I feel aware of it ! also I do really think that my anxiety levels are getting higher than usual, so must keep an eye on that.

Emphasis: To bold a word, surround it with asterisks, so *hello* will display hello. For underline use _ , so _hello_ gives hello. For italics use ^, so ^hello^ gives hello. To strike out a word, surround it with two hyphens either side, so --dog-- gives dog

Links and smileys: To insert a smiley face,  , type [smile] or :)
For a big grin,  , type [grin] or :o
For a wink,  , type [wink]
For a shocked face,  , type [shock]
For an angry face,  , type [angry]

For a sad face,  , type [sad] or :(
For an envious face,  , type [envy]

Links The simplest way to insert a link is to enter the link itself, surrounded by [[ and ]]. So if you type [[www.mumsnet.com]], the link will display as http://www.mumsnet.com. If you want your link to display text other than the web address itself, leave a space after the address then add the text before the ]]. So "Look at [[www.mumsnet.com this page]]", would display "Look at this page".
