Susan, so sorry to hear about your daughters bag. Love and hugs to you both. Hope police are able to get whoever stole it, and get all/most of it back. Won't put down what I'm thinking about them,
Matty, love and gentle hugs, rest as much as you can. xx
Hope you all have a good day shopping/haircuts/work/wrapping etc.
That's where I must be going wrong KEF all my recent bathings have been in diesel.
Verd - we'll have to get you some electricity in the summer house so you've somewhere to hide yourself away when you need it. Not that coming from Yorkshire I know much about electricity but I've seen a lecture on it and it seemed jolly interesting. You know they say it may even replace steam power!
Off to get the Christmas Tree today, done all the big jobs in the garden for the year and taking some time out to eat, eat, drink, eat, drink, eat, drink, open presents, enjoy the company of my family and watch a movie or two and eat a bit more.
punkdoc, I keep thinking about a labrador puppy, just a bit soon after losing our last dog but I know the OH would love a dog around again, but with him not being well I also know it will be all my responsibility. Seems I'm already living life for three people at the moment, so not sure it is the right time for us.
Really feeling for Susans daughter and Verdun today.
If I was ever left on my own here I would get another German Shepherd, the ladt one we had , had been chained up in a scrap yard in Cornwall for the first two years of his life, nd although we were worried, he was the best dog we had ever had.
He needed no training at all, he just seemed to be so grateful for a home and some fuss that he automatically behaved like the perfect gent. His hips went in the end and he was greatly missed by us all.
When the time comes that I will be on my own here, I will definitely get another, they are so clever and responsive.
Have a good everyone, I am off to Morrisons, Tesco wont deliver to me which is a great shame, they say I am off their radar for the area, they sent me an 18.00 gift card to spend in the store, but I have to go in to spend it, as they dont deliver, quite funny really.

Punkdoc: do you know anyone you could look after their dog for a week or weekend to see how you feel / can see how a dog fits into your routine? Or maybe a toddler? I mean aside from the letting them pee in the garden I'm sure they're practically the same
They are a lot of work but so rewarding.
Right. Best get some socks on and get to the x-ray department!
Susan does your daughter's employer have any insurance that covers the theft of employees belongings? Might be able to replace the bag and cover the cost of the locksmith
Susan - my sympathy to your daughter - the same thing happened to me some years ago when I worked in a music and arts venue that was open to the public - the b*****d actually pushed past me on the stairs in his hurry to escape with my purse Fortunately no great harm done - not much cash in there and I hadn't got the housekeys with me that day as OH was working at home and I cancelled my cards pretty quickly. I hope the made good use of the prescription for thyroxine The worst thing was having to get a new driving licence.
But one nice thing happened - a few weeks later my purse was delivered by the postman, nicely wrapped and with a card from the person who had found it in a bin at the back of the Kentucky across the other side of the city - my NI card had still been in it, and the chap who found it went the trouble of researching my address and posting my purse back to me as he'd thought it might have been a present. It restores your faith in humanity just a bit I hope something nice happens for your daughter very soon

Do remember your own happiness now and then.

Morning all.
Sorry to hear your news Susan, although I am a bit of a "trendy leftie", I would shoot the b#####ds.
I really was going into town shopping [ honest ], but the weather is so horrible I can't face it.
We have been thinking about a dog for ages. OH really wants one, I am not sure, but am slowly coming round to the idea.
Best wishes Verdun, hard times, be nice having niece around though, make you feel young?
