Tada! A shiney new thread - get me with my fancy asterisks

Aww, he does sound fab

Oh kurri, you poor thing, keep sipping , and can you have a nap later?

I love the use of "dont trollop around with that!"

I would love to be a trllop with you topsy, but quite frankly I am too knackered

poor KK but little dog does sound adorable !
Hope you're all done topsy and snuggled at home with some cake

Am home .
Long session today . They were running nearly an hour late . And then when I got called in they couldn't get a vein . Finally got there on the 4th attempt

kk - got the trotts ??? Poor you

Think I shall "trollop" on the sofa this afternoon

PS - no cake , but do have large bag of toffee popcorn .....

oo toffee popcorn, that sounds yummy!

ive not been on for a while had alot to get my head round.i have now had my op and am home after spending 5 days in hospital.had 2 drains but one fell out so ended up with a huge seroma that had to be drained.still dragging one drain around a week after surgery as its still producing over 300mil daily.trust me to be the only person around to still have a seroma while i have a drain grrr

poor topsy - can I offer you some sushi (our lunch today)?

and poor pink too - lovely to see you,but sad that you are plagued by seroma and drain...take care x

Poor topsy. Ouch!

And poor Pink! Welcome back! That all sounds like a trial. But it's a big hurdle (nearly) over. Hang on in there, and take it easy. x

ds invited to db' and lalaa's this w/end- barbecue and sailing -mum and dad going- I said that I thought that perhaps ds and 8 yr old niece shouldn't share a room as they used to as he is now 14

Lovely to see you Pink, but sorry you have seroma problems, - what a pain. I hope you start feeling better soon

Ouch to vein prodding topsy - but good that its over, and that you have popcorn

Sparkle - I think I'm going to try to stay awake, so that I sleep tonight, but I could easily curl up on the sofa right now. The piano tuner is due in about half an hour though, so I've been pottering about trying to stay awake. I've risked eating an apple and a piece of toast, - I don't feel ill, so don't think its a bug, I think it thyroidiness.

topsy that happened to my son once was a nightmare he was very brave but finally cried when they tried to take it from his foot.they called down some expert in the end and they managed on the first attempt.i dread if he ever has to give blood again lol he told me straight im never giving blood again you cant make me.

What a shame MAS, your boy is growing up. I think you are right though.

Afternoon all. The sun has finally come out to play. Hooray!!! I've had a lovely friend round for a natter and a this afternoon. Tomorrow I have an appointment with the oncologist re radiotherapy. I hope it's all straightforward.

Topsy, so glad it's over with. I hope your driver works it's stuff and you don't feel sick.

What a pain, Amber. They've been very lacking, haven't they, when it comes to organisational skills?

Sorry to hear about the seroma, Pinks. I'm 19 days post-op and have a slight swelling but the consultant assures me it will "disperse". I hope so.

Hope you manage to stay awake, KK. Black coffee?

Shame about the sleeping arrangements, MAS, but I'm sure it's for the best now your son is getting older.

Hooray for sunshine and good friends. Great tonic.

I hope tomorrow's appointment is plain sailing figgy. I am sure it will be, I have a good feeling.

Right I am living in topsy turvy land, cos it has started raining here!!! we need it though. I was supposed to pull all the carrots today to protect them from carrot root fly, so far I have vacuumed everywhere, cleaned the sittingroom, changed and washed the bedding, made jam and bread rolls, tended the chicks and chickens, painted with the dc, taken dd1 horse riding, and done the mountain of ironing, but not done the carrots, what are you betting I get a series of sighs and I disgruntled lecture when hisnibs comes home Not taking that bet by the way

Pink, you have had a miserable time, I am gad to have you back here!

MAS I feel that my little ds is growing up and he is only 8. 14 seems like adulthood to me Goes too quickly.

Kurri, hope you are hanging in there, I wondered if it was thyroid related. Have a to help.

Figgy - what a nice way to spend the afternoon, now you can have a natter and a with us too.

Cakes is there gin with your tonic, if so, yes please

mmm,gin and tonic - yes please !
Am sending special thoughts to figgy and amber for tomorrow.
Blazer quest - sorted... he tried on a few and we ordered one which should last him until the end of year 11 -and I think they will sew the badge on too ! Still have to endure holding his trousers from last term up against him to see if I need to buy longer ones (he won't want to actually put them on of course...thank goodness for adjustable waists.) We passed some school mates on bikes up our road and they waved-I asked who they were and he just said -'oh,people...'
Waitrose delivery here -hooray and also my birthday pres from dh (ordered early,it isn't until Sept,- a pair of most lovely red shoes - have tried thm on and always fret in case they will be uncomfortable as I'm only used to flipflops,ballet flats or softy suede boots - the edges feel stiff,but I'm pretty sure they'll wear in.

Sparkle - you are a human dynamo - am sorry that you'll get disgruntlement- it isn't fair

shoes !

They are nice! Lovely colour, too.

We also have to do the whole scooliform thing here, maybe tomorrow. I hate it, and so does dd (though she likes having stuff held up against her for some reason).

S[arkles, I hope you don't get disgruntelment, that would be hard to put up with.

Trying now to make myself go to Stretch'n'tone (grr). I imagine I will fall off the determined chair some time in the next 25 minutes

yay to shoes!! Seem to have a pre-tomorrow glass of here. Jolly good.
Pink - eek re your situation there. Everything crossed that it sorts itself out v soon.
'Evening everyone else, and thank you for the kind thoughts.

MAS - very nice shoes . I do like a red shoe !

sparkle - slow the heck down woman . And if DH complains about the lack of carrot pulling , then get outside to the carrot plot , pluck the biggest one you can find , go back into DH , and insert it where the sun don't shine !

I have had a bit of a shitty day . Should have known it right from the start . Be prepared for a rant now .

Started off with a rude awakening at 4.20am . Some wee scrotes thought it would be hilarious to let all (aprox 30) the horses out of the fields and stables opposite our house .
Would have been hilarious , watching all these burly heavily armed policemen trying to herd 30 horses back into a field , if it wasn't 4.20am !

Then we had the hospital fiasco of running nearly an hour late , then not being able to get a line in .

Went to the shops this afternoon to get DS some school shoes , went smoothly .
Went into M&S found a lovely red dress I liked , tried it on , still liked it . Went to pay for it , found there was 25% off ! Brilliant !

Got halfway out of M&S and started to feel quite sicky .
Then , embarrassment of embarrassments , I wet myself walking out of the shop !!!
Luckily I was wearing jeans , and it wasn't too much . So didn't show up .
But what the hell ??? Never happened to me before .

Got home , got cleaned up , lay down on sofa .
About half an hour ago started feeling really sick , checked my syringe driver that dispenses anti sick meds . And realised the bloody hospital had forgotten to turn the damn thing on !!!!!

So all in all , a mixture of good (new dress) and bad today !
