Butter I hear you loud and clear. Told to forego daily walk. Mind you, the wind is keen. Best settle down with coffee and virtual sticky, oaty flapjack wink

soop Thu 26-Apr-12 11:18:49

Thanks, harri I promise to just that. Otherwise, I shall be made to stand in the naughty corner...and we all know that's not a lot of fun...unless of course there are several like-minded GN mates jostling for space wink

Hi all, sitting typing this looking out across the Bay of Naples at Mt. Vesuvius. Having a great holiday.
Having run the Marathon, he now has a new challenge. Tiptree Jam have said, if he can raise
1500 pounds, they will donate a further 500 to his fund for Cancer Research !!!
At this moment he is only 32 pounds away from this target
We hope he can make it.

What a star your son is, Pompa! I'm sure he'll manage it with ease! And I'm very, very envious of you - sitting looking at that view! envysmile

Hope all went well for you and your son ga. And hope the GP was happy with you soop.

And pompa it sounds as though your son is going from strength to strength with his fundraising activity! Hope he has recovered from the marathon by now smile

jeni Thu 26-Apr-12 18:30:45

soop behave for once! grin

Only a virtual one soop. You can do better than that.

If your teeth are still tender, dip them in your tea or coffee.

Oh, yum!!!

imjingl Thu 26-Apr-12 18:39:03

Your biscuits that is. Not your teeth.

Thanks all for your good wishes; my son can now focus his mind on exams as the problem (massive date clash) has been resolved. YIPPEE!!
soop I do hope your leg shows some improvement soon. flowers

Yes, nanachrissy, my thoughts are with you today too. Hoping that all your family will be able to give you the support you deserve. flowers

nanachrissy Fri 27-Apr-12 10:12:22

Thanks Kitty, It's this afternoon, so having a thoughtful morning. Flowers have just arrived and I've written the card. [gulp]
My dad bought flowers for my mum nearly every week, and their joke was Red for Fred, yella for Ella, so I've had a spray of red and yellow roses for him.
Their song was, "(I'll be loving you) Always" and he signed cards to her "Always yours".

A proper love story.

R.I.P. Dad.

nanachrissy Fri 27-Apr-12 10:13:43
