Just need dh to come home with some Wine now, have the glasses and the corkscrew (Hmm too Blush to admit most of our Wine comes with screwcaps these days.....cheap and cheerful Wink)

SparkleRainbow · 11/07/2012 17:16

Ha ha ha (world domination laugh) sparkle has gone mad with her emoticons.....the cracks are finally showing.

.......has been one of those days.

AutumnSummers · 11/07/2012 17:26

Oh Sparkle sounds nice! I'll be cracking a beer open later myself :)

MaryAnnSingleton · 11/07/2012 18:11

I think I will do sausage casserole, in white wine, with homegrown broad beans.....think white wine will go nicely with that too (actually wine goes well with any evening meal in the sparkle household)

worriedworried · 11/07/2012 18:28

Well I had my Wine with an Asda chicken pie and mash - how common is that Blush

worriedworried · 11/07/2012 18:28

Ps - it was a screwtop - I was just trying to sound posh Grin

SparkleRainbow · 11/07/2012 18:29

Ooo I love chicken pie, sometimes when dh is away I have a nice chicken leek pie from the coop (I meant the shop, for those of you who were concerned about my chickens....not put them in a pie....yet!)

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 18:32

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 18:37

Envy I want food- the only time I have felt sick was when dinner arrived (I haven't the heart to tell nice waiter his food is minging so go through charade of ordering it and pretending I am sick).

But good you felt normal topsy as normal as you can be

Tons of luck tomorrow autumn - will be ther holding your hand. And welcome worried - nice to have someone else to chat with even if not in most calm circumstances.

worriedworried · 11/07/2012 18:41

topsy can you make chicken kiev without the goo coming out while you're cooking it? If so please tell me how Smile. It's always been one of lifes' mysteries to me....

SparkleRainbow · 11/07/2012 18:43

Will say goodbye for today...off to throw dc into bubble bath, at hospital with ds tomorrow, so if I don't make it on I will still be thinking of you.

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 18:46

Update from one of Ambers friends on Facebook .
She had a bad experience with security and got a bit kerfuffled .
She is in train on way home , but naturally doesn't feel up to posting just yet .
Big hugs Amber xxx

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 18:47

That's the joy !
Makes the breadcrumbs all yummy !

smee · 11/07/2012 21:12

Just popped in to wish Autumn every best wish I can muster for tomorrow. Hope you get some sleep. We'll all be thinking of you, I'm sure. xx

Blimey, poor Amber. Hope she's okay. Sad

Gig, glad you're feeling not horrendous, you too, Topsy. Any news from Gracie??

topsyturner · 11/07/2012 21:23

Still feeling ok .
My next door neighbour has kindly lent me get anti sea sickness bands aswell incase I need then .
But so far , so good !

No word from Gracie yet .
You ok ?

Gig when do you get sprung ?
Tomorrow or Friday ?

Gigondas · 11/07/2012 21:28

That's good topsy so wont add to your nausea with pics. And hi gracie -thinking of you.

Sprung Friday as last chemo tomorrow but need 12 hours rehydration after. I will have to nag them to get on as only just finished it now for today as they faffed for two hours (and basically you need to get on the nurse alarm and strop or you get ignored as you are neither crying or dieing).

graciesmall09 · 11/07/2012 21:36

Thinking of you all.

Feeling a bit iffy so off to bed. Syringe driver had run out by 3 hours before being refilled and they had reduced my steroids so not sure if they are making me feel sick or I'm just tired.

Glad to hear topsy and gig seem to be coping well.

I haven't read through but thinking of everyone. Spotted amber is having a tough time - thinking of you and thinking of Autumn tomorrow

sparkle hope DS hospital appointment goes ok.

Night All. Sweet dreams to you all especially mas

MaryAnnSingleton · 11/07/2012 22:19

amber really hope you are ok- sending lots of love.
Hope you get home on Friday gig - you can open your box !!
Will send lots of good vibes to you tomorrow autumn

Just nipping in to wish Autumn all the best for tomorrow. I hope the results are good and you leave with a clear plan for the next step.

Also want to send best wishes - of course - to everyone having chemo and rads at mo. Hope the anti nausea stuff does its thing, and that Gig gets home promptly this time. Good to see Topsy okay. BTW, i loved the dress porn - Gracie - oyur dress is lovely for wedding. I might jsut have a wee look at DP website - see wot Topsy made me do .....

Sorry to see Amber having problems. Hope it all resolves very soon.

And all best wishes to newcomers to the thread, those with joint aches, anxiety, those waiting for results, with hospital appointments whether for self or loved ones, pending surgery, the winos (!!), anyone with shingles, anyone with a sore but getting better back, too much work to do, not ehough work to do, a driving test on Friday (esp if that person also has shingles), all the lurkers. There, is that everyone covered? hope so.

Baskets, who lurks, reads most days, and posts sometimes
