Share your news here. A little drop in. Just have a chat. Anything at all.

A lovely thing happened this morning. A woman behind me in the queue gave me a voucher for £5 off my shopping. She was really insistent, saying she wouldn't use it. She must have noticed, from my basket, that the grand children were arriving at short notice. Lol!

t was just really nice of her. So I'll try and pay something forward today in thanks.

I've hidden the thread now.
I see a lot of them as older, inadequate men sat in their bedrooms bashing away at a grubby keyboard. They choose user names like " EnglishOak" and "TrafalgarSquare" and last night's take away moulders under their bed.

It's not a massive thing but we ordered our garden furniture back in February and we've finally been given a delivery date for next week. We can finally take advantage of our garden and chill.

Goodness! That's a long wait for it! Is it a special order? Glad to hear it's coming, I really hope that the weather is good for you to enjoy it @blueballetshoes.

My people lost the women’s football final today. They were awesome. Gutted for them. Such grace and dignity. Hard loss

@EchoNan Yeah it's a customised order...the parts they've been waiting for from abroad there's been so many delays but so happy now.

@blueballetshoes I'm so pleased it's finally sorted out. My BIL is stuck on a build he is involved with because there is a shortage of timber apparently. Crazy times.

@Lndnmummy. It would have been great to see them get through. They did so well, lots of courage.
