I hope it goes well with your new beau @D0rdogne_Damsel, you deserve a kind man after all you've been through. Your French will improve in leaps and bounds! My daughter's French husband can now speak basic English to my OH, maybe your beau will learn some. I think the hardest thing that he will have to accept is your busy lifestyle and independence.
Supposed to be sunny today, but it is grey and cold, with a frost on the ground. Off for my walk, and should be getting my seed order today, which is always exciting, except I always order far too many.
How can you lie there and think of England When you don't even know who's in the team
Gosh, no new posts since punkdocs at 9.23 this morning? Am I on the right thread?
Had a good day with my friend at the GC and had a long gossip over coffee and cake. I was pleased to find a Calamagrostis Karl Foerster and a reel of All Weather Tape for the greenhouse.
OH's friend arrived about 4.30 pm and the Coq au vin went down a treat. Will probably go to bed early tonight as I was awake at 4 am, got up for a cup of tea then went back to bed at 5pm so feel a bit rubbish now.
We've both had our shingles jabs. My mother had it really badly in her seventies I think so I was well aware of the horrid consequences.
Morning everyone. I’m just up and finishing my breakfast. Nothing planned for today, but that’s ok. A bit cool. 22.4 on the veranda and 18.7 in here. Thats because the morning sun gets through to the veranda.
the ultrasound confirmed last year's findings. So good news that nothing worsened but because of this effing swollen lymph node I won't get away with not doing the body scintigraphy with all that stuff that they have to put into my body. That is at the end of this month. They were nice at the hospital, the endocrinologist who did the scan was reassuring in that they will get the balance right between bones, palpitations and the managing of the lymph nodes. It's possible that I have an ongoing infection or even an allergy to something that has nothing to do with the thyroid, ex thyroid actually.
After spending the morning at the hospital we treated ourselves to a lovely Thai meal, so there!
You lot will never know how I envy your coffee and buns at the garden centre. Non existent here. The GC closest to me closed down in September and nothing has opened in its place.
All docs here recommend shingle jabs for the over 65 and even earlier if you are prepared to pay.
Good morning all 😊 ☕️ Hope everyone’s had a restful night and glad that the news was reassuring @coccinella … sounds like your endocrinologist knows his stuff 👍 and a Thai meal is a great way to celebrate.
Afraid I didn’t sleep too well after about 4 … neck still sore if I move the wrong way so I needed more paracetamol and then struggled to get back to sleep … when I did manage it I found that @WonkyWomble and I were lost in a multistory car park and the escalator jammed … Great fun 🙄
Never mind … looks like the sort of day to hunker down with a good book or a film and the knitting. Sausages mash and beans will do for supper so nothing much to do for that.
Take care out there folks … sounds like some of us are going to get more ‘weather’ than we would like.
I did get some nice biscuits yesterday if anyone wants to join me on the sofa … and of course, the kettle’s always on ☕️ 🫖 🍪

🤞 @coccinella.
I had shingles in my early 50s. Luckily it didn't last long but, gosh, it was painful.
@Dovefromabove we are going to London on Friday. I may have forgotten to say which day.

Might be a sign the weather's improving and they're all out in the garden @Lizzie27. 😅
I wish we were that cool @Pat E, 5° here at the moment. Supposedly warming up this week.
I've a last minute wedding cake to make today, can't believe they've left it this late, they want it Saturday. 🙄
I'm also meeting my gentleman friend's grown up daughter today, he's bringing her for lunch at CdeG. Interesting times. 😊
Hope everyone is ok. Catch you all later.

Interesting times indeed @D0rdogne_Damsel, good luck!
