Oh SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito I’m so sorry to hear that Sad

Willow2017 · 16/06/2020 16:28

I may have left a well-reasoned and sensible response.
Well that was probably a waste of your time! Nobody wants that kind if thing now do they?

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito

One day. I had ONE good fucking day and then the universe shat on it.

My dad just told me he has cancer. I don't know many details, am assuming it's been caught fairly early but I don't know for sure.

I was just starting to feel like life was on its way back to being ok again and now this. I don't even know what to think or say or do.

Oh SHIT. What a kick in the bloody guts. I'm so sorry Flowers

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito - really sorry to hear that.

@Drivingdownthe101 - my favourite is still the woman who would stay in lockdown for 100 years if it meant she could see her family safely at the end.

So sorry to hear that. Flowers and a non Mumsnetty virtual hug to you.

Orangeblossom78 · 16/06/2020 16:37

I am sorry to hear about the cancer, and hope his treatment can go ahead with this going on. Flowers

Cancer, I am sorry sam vimes, that is the crowner Sad

glotterbug · 16/06/2020 16:39

@sirsamuel so sorry to hear about your dad.

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito

Sorry to hear that, that sucks. (also - top quality user name)

233... We are definitely in the realms liveability here. Especially as the government responded to the criticism of under counting of stuffing every death possible into the count.

Willow2017 · 16/06/2020 16:41

My latest fave was
"I am not risking my life working for you to go shopping"

Just stop its embarassing!

InsaneInTheViralMembrane · 16/06/2020 16:43

SirSamuel, I’m so sorry to hear your news.

My eldest has just missed his (expensive) online music lesson... I completely forgot and he was up in the forest with pals. GOOD FOR HIM!

@Drivingdownthe101

Ooh BoJo is leading the briefing today... any chance of us being thrown another snippet of freedom do you think?
Oh now that's interesting. He doesn't normally do these things unless there is actually something to say.

Alternatively he's finally been taken off furlough :-) and is having to do some actual work....

FluffyKittensinabasket · 16/06/2020 16:44

Looking at the NHS Daily Covid Deaths website, 5 deaths in English hospitals were actually recorded yesterday.

So sorry to hear of your news, hope treatment isn't too delayed in all the shiteness.

I do really need to add an R to the end of your excellent username though, sorry Flowers

ISaySteadyOn · 16/06/2020 16:46

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonitor, Flowers. That's rough news.

Gammeldragz · 16/06/2020 16:46

Bojo appearing on a Tuesday?! He's been working?!

NothingIsWrong · 16/06/2020 16:46

@InsaneInTheViralMembrane my son is having his flute lesson right now. It's excruciating.

LadyOfTheImprovisedBath · 16/06/2020 16:47

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito I'm so sorry.

Khione · 16/06/2020 16:47

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito

Shit, sorry to hear that - Life is such a bastard at times.

AnxiousElephant77 · 16/06/2020 16:47

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito So sorry to hear that Daffodil

InsaneInTheViralMembrane · 16/06/2020 16:49

@NothingIsWrong mine do chanter (learning bagpipes) and fiddle. Thankfully we seem to have passed the painful beginner stage for both - although the dog still cries.

NothingIsWrong · 16/06/2020 16:50

@SirSamuelVimesBlackboardMonito that's fucking shit. I'm so sorry.
