    Feel very sad and atear iny eye.

    Perhaps not the best thing to read at this stage in my life - Mum also left aletter, read whne she first died but cannot re-read it yet.

    Bill I think it very brave of you to post this, and I think your son's strength must have come from you and your wifes love.

    Very brave of your son to write a lovely letter must have been hard for him god bless him. It must be every parent's nightmare to have one of there children no matter what age die before them. Bill to you and your wife think of all the great times you had as a family over the years. Am sure your sons presence will still be around you all in some way looking over you and everyday as a family your loss get a little easier.

  • Bill, how proud you must be of him, and how very proud he was of you  - bless you all.

    Hello all, sorry but I have been away and whilst there bought my first iPhone which syncs with this mac on everything except signing in here!! Any ideas any one? I can read all your posts on the phone but can't respond without signing in. When I do so it rejects me because I already exist, if you get my drift.

    Some random thoughts:-

    Lemon drizzle cake in my village shop should be relabelled "Lemon Drenched" It's the best I have ever tasted, and I am a fully paid up expert.

    Gg, just how much energy do you have and can I have some please? Tulip noses showing. 

     

    Hello Woody the only thing I can think of is logging out of one to get into the other,

    Have to get some cake from your village shop like lemon drizzle but Victoria sponge cake my favourite do they do that?

    Your tulips noses showing on goodie - I so want to come visit your garden when they are in flower if I am allowed to.

    For energy try Berocca tablets I do gives me a boost some days when I need it as well as cake

    My car seems to have a problem......it now can't drive past the GC. Without popping in yo check out discount corner image Although today a couple of full price ones popped in, a euphorbia and something else whose name escapes me but looks like lettuce and has pretty little flowers in the summer in tall stems.  Got lots of bargains too though.

    Then I arrived home to my package from Stacey, thank you so much you are very kind.  I am going to sow the poppy seeds at weekend and the chillies tomorrow, I am hoping to soak them in tea tonight first, as per the expert's advice image

    Right, off to drink my brew then do a but of planting.  Busy Thursday night so may not be on again x

    GardenJeannie, sorry I forgot to reply to your post on my last one!  Thank you for sharing your experience, the doc tried to imply I might be depressed but having been there a few times I know I'm not.  In my head I have buckets of energy, not that 'can't be bothered with anything at all' feeling like I've had before, it's just physically I feel absolutely drained.  I don't even feel ill really,  just have swollen glands all over and am very frustrated because I have so much I need/want to do.  I think it may be hormonal but we'll wait and see.  Thanks again x
