    Top bird that’s good news that you can speak face to face with FIL and so can his wife, and how lovely to see the birds, mom had two feeders hanging outside her window and loved to see them. I went to Wilkinson earlier to stock up on bird food, amongst other things, woman on till commented that they should only be selling essential items! To me feeding the birds is essential! And I am lucky enough to go out to work most days other people rely on out little feathered friends to brighten their day. I think mental health is  being ignored and it’s a worry!

    T'Bird, that was such a lovely post to read about your MIL and FIL being able to Facetime, similarly Hazel. These contacts are just so precious now, and yes, the volunteer army, three cheers for them and their wonderful selflessness. Absolutely fantastic!
    I've had a text from 'sco saying my order will be ready tomorrow afternoon at the arranged time and an email from the courier about the delivery of the bird food which will be on Tuesday. I'm just looking forward to getting out in the car - even if it is just to pick up my lucky dip shopping and coming home again. I agree Debs, feeding the birds and watching their antics is important.

    TBird , it’s good that Mum in-laws and father in-law  got time to see and speak to each other . Also you and OH getting time to see and speak to your father in-law. That’s a thumbs up for modern technology.

    Good evening all.
    T'bird, I'm so glad that FIL has a brilliant staff at hospice. It's a huge relief for you. 
    Few years ago I didn't listen radio at all. Now I like turn him on, sit on the sofa and relax.

    On the end I can say that it was a nice day overall. Here is my marble cake, it's tasty with coffee or tea. Sorry for the crumbs all over around😁.

    Topbird I echo Rubees words, such a comfort, a lovely thing for the hospice to do.  Chive I’ve been pottering and reading and a little walking.  LB good luck with the sm shop tomorrow it will be a surprise.  I like ducks, I first photographed a mandarin duck in the lakes when I was very young when Id bought a camera in the chemists for £4.

    Hi everyone 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️
    Well what a mixed 
    up day weather 
    wise 😣 we've had 
    Beautiful blue skies and sunshine, rain,  huge hailstorm. Wind, more sunshine and snow. Inbetween heavy snow showers we had to rush out in the garden because the wind had ripped the roof covering off the shed 😣😣😣 I managed to pull it back  over while OH held the ladder......i wouldn't let him up there....he really wanted to though.....placed some bricks on top, then rushed back in as the hailstones came down. And of course we can't fix it properly because we can't go out and get new roofing and nobody can come and do it for us😭😭😭

    Son dropped veg etc 
    off.....this 
    Was way before 
    the roof incident😣
    Had a chat from afar and waved goodbye😓😓
    Rubee, I agree 
    We have a lovely friendship on here, always get along and there for each other. I look in on other threads too, but either don't post often or not at all. Some have big falling outs and I don't want to get involved with that. And quite often you just blatantly get ignored 🤷‍♀️ But on Res it's just not like that. 😘
    Topbird, how 
    Lovely of those nurses to do that for your FIL & MIL there really are some very kind people out there.
    Hi @Yviestevie good to 
    See you, so sorry  
    to hear you've been 
    poorly. Hope  
    you feel better soon. I had that awful cough before Christmas too, agree it sounds so similar to this awful virus. Had a cough a few weeks ago too, seems to go on for ever doesn't it 😣 take care and stay safe Yvie.
    OH heck it's 
    all over the 
    Place again 😂😂
    Hazel, it's very strange at times, different bedrooms, can't use the kitchen at the same time. Sitting in the lounge quite far apart. Sometimes we are in different rooms reading/watching tv. But sat least we're sort of together 🙄
    Cake looks yummy Ante 😋😋
    Sorry, have now forgotten everything else.....oops.
    Hi MU if you're looking in 🙋‍♀️
