Glad you got your jeans @Busy-Lizzie.Ā Lovely sandals @Lizzie27!Ā Ā Mini Victoria sponges sound lovely @D0rdogne_Damsel - and I'm sure your garden will be lovely.Ā Ā
What a scare @Pat E!Ā But if it helps her cut the ciggies, that would be good.Ā She could try weaning off with some kind of vape device.Ā I have to confess - I am still addicted to nicotine.Ā I gave up smoking 20 years ago but simply moved over to nicotine lozenges.Ā That is my guilty secret.Ā Ā
Hope all improves for those with worries. Well done to all the ex smokers. My dad was a smoker since he was 14, got lung cancer and died at 49. Left an unfillable gap in my life and I still miss him.Ā Lovely sandals and toenails! M and S have been very disappointing for years now. Dresses all too short, and out of proportion ( that might be me, though! ) Oh for the days when I would pop into Per Una and have to ration myself. I do buy their cord trousers, but the straight cut leg have been getting narrower every year, and itās anyones guess what length āregularā will turn out to be.Ā
It's not just you ladies with M&S, I used to buy trousers for work there, still have a Jacket, (didn't buy suits cos the trousers always wore out firstĀ ). Anyway IĀ used to be able to go in and pick up 1/2 lined smart trousers, off the rack knew they would fit perfectly.Ā As soon as they gave up on UK manufacturing, I started to find the sizes all wrong. My previously standard size became small , leg length became short (30 ins really!) The half lining disappeared and the prices went up.Ā The joys of progress!Ā
I get the M&S straight leg jeans online and find they fit just fine ⦠what that says about me or them Iām not sure ⦠but they had room for a fish & chip lunch on the pier š½ now for ice cream at the harbour mouth š¦Ā

Afternoon all, it's raining again much to my disappointment. Thought I'd be good this morning and do the housework first (it was sunny). Then we had lunch and just as I was getting ready to garden, noticed it was wet. Oh well, it will rest my bones. Plumber's arrived to mend the en-suite loo flush, very good of him to fit us in before the weekend. His name is Phelim, an Irish name I'd never heard of before, apparently pronounced 'Flim'.
I was hopping mad yesterday, looked at the window and saw a squirrel calmly eating my rosebuds in front of me! Grrr!
That was a nasty shock @Pat E, hope your daughter will be okay. I'm glad to say I've never smoked, nor does OH or my children, although I suspect they probably did when young.
Thanks everyone. Iām trying to be positive about it. Ā Itāll be better when she has had all the tests and scans, so that we know what the full situation is. I must admit Iāve had some quiet moments today though, remembering her when she was a littly etc. she was always a beautiful little girl and she has been a very good Mum to her son. No complaints.Ā

I've just been to pick up my specs, and they're not right and have to be remade.Ā
