    Good morning Chicky image  I've sent my apologies for tennis ... I'll see how my neck is for driving - if it's ok I'll go down to Suffolk and visit Ma - it's been quite a while since my last visit.

    Good morning all, hi Patimage

    Just a little sprinkling of snow here and I hooe it stays that way.

    Dove I hope your neck will be OK for driving.  You'll have to use the mirrors more rather than twisting round.

    Liri it was quite a happy accident not to have to spend the night in the airportimage.  It was a memorable holidayimage.

    Wonky glad you had a good weekend and that you have now managed to get some seeds plantedimage.  Hope the tablet is sorted soon.

    Rb congratulations to g/son for landing a placement in Londonimage

    Panda I hope you can move a bit better today.  It sounds an exhausting trip but you were animage for doing itimage.

    Shirley what a lovely moment for your daughterimage.  Lizzie was right about the magazine.  I'm sure mine missed a month too.

    Morning all/afties Pat  - we're about 33 degrees lower than you at the moment! image

    Little drop of snow here too Lesley but some dark clouds coming this way. Might be more of an issue with ice. 

    Think BL's right about the mag taking a month or so depending on when you subscribe. I don't get it now, although I occasionally buy it. 

    Panda - are you more mobile today? image

    Dove - take it easy with the neck . I remember having the same problem and thought it was ok when I drove - till I had to reverse into a parking space and could only turn my head 90 degrees! That took longer than it should have  image

    Morning the rest of you image

    Not sure if Wonky's going to get the chance to post this morning, but I'm sure she won't mind me letting you know that life is much more peaceful now as most of the people living above have moved on and the couple that remain are pleasant and quiet.  image

    Enjoy the hairdo LilyP image

    That's great Dove. It's an unbearable situation when you have that constant 'rammy'.

    Good word that isn't it? image
