    Oh good, @punkdoc, good luck. I just sent you a PM but seems part of it is now out of date.

    The physiotherapist was pleased with OH's progress.

    About a year at the moment, @Hostafan1. The surgeon who I knew said did I want it done privately, but I can't afford it, and don't approve of the system.

    Thank you for the PM, @Busy-Lizzie, good to know your hubby is much improved, just a shame he had to wait so long.

    Happy Birthday @WonkyWomble 💐🎂🍾

    I hope everyone is doing ok. 

    I’ve wangled two days off now as I volunteered to work on Good Friday instead. I was considering making some cakes for work but there were no eggs in the SM! I’ll try a smaller shop tomorrow maybe.

    Evening everybody, rather late to the party but Happy Birthday @WonkyWomble, hope you enjoy your evening.

    Good news @Busy-Lizzie, @Punkdoc and @Pat E.

    I'm in disgrace as I inadvertently left a metal tent peg on the lawn yesterday and it broke a wheel on the lawnmower whilst OH was cutting the front lawn - oops! Went into best Blue Peter mode and it's now very well Ducktaped up. Probably will have to have a new wheel fitted (if they still do it) at some stage.

    I've been busy digging things up and moving them - one of my favourite occupations, my plants must get dizzy sometimes. It was two clematis in the wrong places, one a herbaceous one and the other a Group 3, hope they survive. Found another clematis clinging onto life for all it's worth so staked that one so it climbs up into the cherry tree.

    Found digging quite exhausting though and had to have lots of sit downs, could have done without a nearly two mile return walk to the pharmacy, papershop and bakery this morning. I really must learn to pace myself.

    We're looking forward to Simon Scharma's next programme later tonight. Hope everyone enjoys what's left of their evening.

    Good news for OH @Busy-Lizzie onwards and upwards now! That is such a long wait @punkdoc such a shame. I had my RDV with the surgeon on the 2nd January and was asked when I would like the op, we agreed the 24th January would be good and so it was. So different down here.

    Good evening,  hope you had a good day @WonkyWomble, nearly missed it.
    After a session on the plots this morning,  I  cut the grass front and back at home in late afternoon, first time this year!
