Cake and Wine ww, have a great day

Hope all goes well today apricot, I expect a crem would be very well organised with appropriate precautions.

DD tested negative Confused, not sure about the cats given today's news story.......

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 01/07/2021 10:58

I'm looking forward to the tales of LFT tests for FancyCat and ScaredyCat. I'm sure they'd be cooperative Hmm Confused Grin

Afternoon. Cloudy and warm again, but the sun's trying to come out now.

The funeral was fine, although being pretty close to 29 other people I don't know is a bit disquieting. I did manage to find 5 of my cousins which was nice.

We've watched In Plain Sight LetUs, it's good. I like Martin Compston and Douglas Henshall, they're both good actors.

Hope WW has had a lovely day. Cake and Wine

Grin at the thought of cats having covid tests.

LetUsPrey · 01/07/2021 19:01

Evening wenches.

Hope you’ve had a simply splendid day Wicked Cake

Sunny but breezy now so pollen a-go-go. Doesn’t matter because I’m watching Federerererer.

at cats having an LFT. One look at you and yeah, you know where you can put that.

Did you perk up Helen? Early night in the hayloft for you.

Good that it went as well as possible Apricot. Agree with you about Henshall and Compston. I really want to read up about the characters but I’m making myself wait until we’ve watched it all.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 01/07/2021 20:28

Evening all. It's been miserable weather here, though I did get out for a lunchtime walk with a friend.

Glad to hear that the funeral went well Apricot

Hope that Fancy is still improving.

LetUs - would love an early night in the hayloft with Athos You never know, it might not happen...

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 01/07/2021 21:03

Thanks wenches Smile. Can't believe I'm 50! Where did that come from??
I haven't done anything special, done som cleaning since I have the viewing tomorrow, ordered some take away, took a nap in the afternoon.
Glad the funeral went well Apes
Scary about positive covid-test Fancy, hope you get better soon!

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 01/07/2021 21:04

Fräsan would probably make me take the test instead Grin

LetUsPrey · 01/07/2021 22:04

Hadn’t realised it was the Big 5-0 Wicked! A quiet day, a nap and a takeaway sounds a great way to spend the day.

LetUsPrey · 02/07/2021 07:23

Morning wenches.

The sunshine must be going somewhere as we have storms tomorrow and rain all next week.

Who cares though because it’s Friiiiiiddaaaaaayyyyyy!

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 02/07/2021 08:14

Morning, We still have the same duvet-inspiring weather as yesterday. I did head up for the hayloft early, but diverted into the trough and wallowed there for too long, then came down to find that CuteKitten had been banished for bad behaviour and needed food and cuddles. So it got even later...

Good luck with the viewing Wicked

Hope that everywench has a good day...

ApricotCrush · 02/07/2021 17:31

Afternoon. Nice day, washing, housework etc. this morning and on the lounger this afternoon.

That's it really.

Hope Fancy is recovering.

Awww at badly behaving CuteKitten needing food and cuddles.

FancyFancy · 02/07/2021 18:30

Evening
Have been feeling rather more lively today thanks - had to get a phone consultation with the GP though as the mozzie bite from over a week ago flared right up yesterday & a red rash was marching across my arm Shock So now I have antibiotics. FFAS.

Did have a nice bonus though - the friend who picked up the prescription for me slipped a pack of biscuits in the bag. Biscuits would have been bonus enough, but these were some of my favourites Grin

Glad that the crem & birthdays went well & hope that wenches are enjoying the tennis/kittens as appropriate.

LetUsPrey · 02/07/2021 19:03

Evening wenches.

I love such lovely thoughtful touches like someone popping a packet of your favourite biscuits in with the prescription. Hope the antibiotics do the trick quickly.

Hope your weather picked up Helen. Ours has been quite nice again.

Lying on a lounger sounds fabulous Apricot.

DS2 has got the GCSE options he wanted which is a relief and he’s super happy about it.

Settling down with pizza and tennis.

LetUsPrey · 02/07/2021 21:20

Annnnnnnd it’s lashing it down.

Pizza and tennis plan. Let’s say I enjoyed the pizza Sad

FancyFancy · 02/07/2021 23:02

Glad to hear the GCSE options worked out Letus
I'm still quaking at the thought of giving the cats LFTs! ScaredyCat would rip me to shreds......

Am watching an episode of Gavin & Stacey, Owain Hughes - and no he doesn't Grin

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 02/07/2021 23:06

Yay for surreptitious biscuits Grin Fingers crossed the bite settling down asap.

The weather did improve, but not massively. Definitely not lounger weather.

FridayNightSportingActivity was cancelled due to covidness of instructor - or that they're having to isolate, or some such. So we had a film night and watched Minority Report. It would have been improved without the soundtrack of galloping StupidKitten and growling StupidCat I have banished the former to the kitchen for being a bitey little sod.

I watched a bit of the tennis LetUs and decided that it wouldn't be an enjoyable match to carry on watching. Unless you were neutral, since Murray's opponent was playing some cracking tennis.

How did the viewing go Wicked?

Morning
Arm is bloody itchy but looking a little less red, which feels positive.
If the rain holds off today I should get some weeding done as it's so much easier when the ground is soft.

WickedWenchOfTheNorth · 03/07/2021 11:24

Viewing at 12, she loved it and made a bid at once and we signed the contract at 16. So it went really fast Smile

LetUsPrey · 03/07/2021 11:31

Morning wenches.

Excellent news Wicked!!

I think maybe we have your rain Fancy so hopefully you’ll be okay for weeding.

Am assisting sister and her partner with their house move. It’s tipping it down.

SisterHelenoftheEternalCatchUp · 03/07/2021 12:12

Oh dear - house moving in the rain is a nightmare Sad. You need HBFs with umbrellas LetUs Grin

Glad to hear the arm is improving Fancy - hope the covidy side of things is as well. I need to get into the garden too. Maybe if I have a look around it first I'll find some motivation buried under weeds

Excellent news re. the apartment Wicked Did I already say that? I have the memory of a cliched goldfish...

OP posts:
FancyFancy · 03/07/2021 13:29

Wow that was fast ww, hope the rest of the process is as smooth.

Oh dear Sad letus, hope you're not all getting too wet

Symptoms in general are easing & I'm feeling pretty good thank. Still get a bit tired at times, but am sleeping very well at night, which is great.

LetUsPrey · 03/07/2021 16:34

I. Am. Knackered. Fortunately the rain stopped for the unloading. The house is gorgeous. Bits and pieces to do and the obligatory decorating but there’s lots of time for that. Also, the obligatory moving in lunch of fish and chips from a local chippy Grin

Excellent news re continuing recovery Fancy.

I plan to do not much for the rest of the day. Then tomorrow DS1’s coming home Smile

ApricotCrush · 03/07/2021 16:42

Afternoon. Pouring all morning, but brightened up now. This weather is very weird. Confused

Pleased that DS2 got his GCSE options LetUs.

Glad you're feeling better Fancy.

That's amazing WW. Shock Things don't move nearly as fast here.

Love galloping CuteKitten Helen.

Watching the tennis and will be watching the football later.
