And the meerkats? Are they greeted with suspicion as they are immigrants?

And thanks for being so lovely- welled up when dh told me that there was a parcel from tamoxifen thread. Told him to hide it from big gig til I get home but that is so nice GrinGrin don't know how I would get through it without you lot.

Gig SmileSmile and

topsy - good luck for tomorrow, 8.30 is very uncivilised but at least you'll be home at a reasonable time.

My scores on the hazard practice tests are going down - Bum -I think I'm going to fail again Sad and grrrrr. - I'm too slow, I don't react quick enough.

sleep well MAS,

night night all xx

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 06:10

KK don't do any more tests today , give yourself a break .
Do you have the theory test book ?
Read that (but only a little bit) , do one more test tomorrow . And then leave it till the real thing on Friday .
You will over think it all if you do too much .

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 06:10

Good luck for today Gracie x

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 06:17

"Can I read it ?"
Direct quote from The Orange One .
Is it cruel to say he might be better off with the audio book Grin

And as for writing his own ?
Boak !

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 06:47

I liked "people are talking about it and I don't know what the heck is going on." not for the first time I suspect Pete Grin

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 06:48

Maybe you might make an exception autumn and read this? After all he does love his kids Wink

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 06:55

Bless his Big Orange Heart Grin

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 07:00

MaryAnnSingleton · 11/07/2012 08:00

NedSchneebly · 11/07/2012 08:08

More rads topsy number 8 today, 12 to go after that! It's about 30 minute drive, then fighting for a car parking space, then waiting, then driving home again. It's feels like a full time job!

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 08:13

That's what I thought sparkleGrin

ned have a lovely day. Am looking forward to joining you as current leader of team kodakSmile. What annoys me is that my bloody leg hair doesn't gone so if I put my shoulder support on, with my new hair and being on steroids I could join most weightlifting teams .

topsy one hour - four hours of the hard stuff here Envy and then on hydration. not just bloody cancer but why do I have to her one that is such a pain in the arse in all ways Wink. I did manage to sleep a load better (despite drip change at 2am). Dunno if was hospital bed or what as actually on Less painkillers than usual. Still long may it last

mas glad you got more rest as always seem better then. And mas has done another wonder work for my stepdad birthday - look out for it when it goes on fb.

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 08:14

I find faff of going in for a few minutes of rads painful. How are you finding fatigue ned? So far I found that worse than currently have had with chemo. Maybe cos of trips in to do it.

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 09:02

Sigh .
1/2 hour post apt time and still in the waiting room .
Running late already ...

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 09:05

Hospital time- it is a realm of its own.

Maybe you could start ghost writing orange mans book - that should kill 10 minutes.

How did you do on new music hunting on iTunes?

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 09:16

Good grief ... hurry up !!!
