    Yes, @Dovefromabove - I keep getting an error message too.  Had to get in by the back door, so to speak.

    Good morning everyone!  Hi Pat - good news about your recliners... 

    Not good news about your border, @fidgetbones.  Words fail me.

    Not been on here a lot (various bits of busy have got in the way) but sympathy and hugs to @Hostafan1 - really hard to get one's head round such an early death.  (My cousin, the same age as me, died last week.  Not nearly so early but it still brought me up short...) 

    Sympathy too, to @Lily Pilly.  Hard to cope with your own ill health when you're so worried about your family.  Hugs to you.

    Hope you sleep better tonight, @chicky, and have a lovely weekend.

    Best wishes to all!

    Hi all.
    About to head north, see you all in a while.
    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    🤔 I tried a back door and the French windows with no luck ...

    Morning all. 
    Just been round to water friend's Chelsea Flower Show plants. ( all looking good, whew ) 
    She got a gold medal at Malvern this week.
    Have a good break @punkdoc and Moira. 
    I've been a bit quiet for a couple of days. Can't get my head around my friend's situation. Now I'm all over the place about his son's funeral. We're down here in Devon, they live in Fife. I feel I SHOULD be there, but a logistical nightmare .
    Devon.

    @Hostafan1 - will it be easier to go in a few weeks rather than now? There will be lots of people at the funeral and lots keeping your friend busy - it's the long quiet days that follow which can be worse. So if now is too difficult, go soon and fix a date as soon as you can.
