    Thinking of you and Wonky, @Dovefromabove.  xx
    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Oh @Dovefromabove I'm so sorry. I hope your son will be all right. What a worry for you. Sending hugs.

    Everything crossed for your son @Dovefromabove and for your bro @WonkyWomble.  Anxious times.  Hugs from me too.

    Just heard he’s being taken to Stoke Mandeville as there’s no spare beds at Broomfield. I’m to ring in the morning 8 am. 
    Unsurprisingly I’m wide awake …

    Morning @Dovefromabove, sending my very best wishes to you and your family, I really do hope he is ok, what terrible news.

    Thank you @D0rdogne_Damsel and everyone. Stoke Mandeville rang at 4ish. He’s having an op now. They’ll ring later. He has burns to his face, torso, arms and hands.

    Oh no!!  @Dovefromabove  I hope you will know exactly what happened later in the morning - keep us informed - thinking of him as he comes out of the operating theatre and of course you and @WonkyWomble  for the after care.

    Good morning to you all!

    Heavy frost this morning, but bright sunshine is promised and no wind.

    @D0rdogne_Damsel   I hope things pan out for you in the future - your restaurant will be getting even busier with spring and summer looming.  May you have reliable staff for this busy time.

    Dinner went well last night - now for the tidying up!

    Today's expression is:  Si le soleil luit pour Saint Eulalie, pommes et cidre à la folie!!
    (I like apples, but I don't drink cider.)

    Have a very pleasant Sunday and @Dovefromabove  Have a good news Sunday.  I am sure we are all worried about your boy.

    Good morning all,  one snag of trying to cut down it takes longer to read back.
    So sorry to hear about your son @Dovefromabove joining everyone in wishing for a good outcome. 
    Hope you are feeling better too @Pat E

    Good morning Forkers

    Dear @Dovefromabove I am sending you all the best for the full recovery of your son. What a trauma it must be for you. I will be thinking of you.

    @Dovefromabove and @WonkyWomble - my thoughts are with you. Keep strong together (and when you don’t feel strong,  you have each other)
