Sorry to hear your DH had a TIA on Monday Soutra it's a frightening experience and I hope he has fully recovered. Just when you were both happy about the joyous arrival of your GD, something like this knocks the wind out of you. Hope you have a positive chat re DH's anaemia tomorrow.
Take care of yourself too. 
Slainte, to you both.
I can almost feel your and DH's spirits lifting from here Bella. What a wonderful time ahead with your DD and your own little Bella around. Could the hospital not make a teeny wee exception in this case as they have travelled so far? I'm sure you know best though whether this is a good idea or not.
Best of luck McSporran, we will all be with you in Oban next Wednesday. Slainte to your good self. |_|, that's a wee dram 
Just as Lona has said. 
and for each of you.
soop glad you've got a date at last
Bellasnana Just what you needed to cheer you onwards, and also to shore you up when you feel low! I'm so pleased for you.xx
Soutra Look after yourself too
Waiting for appointments and then results can be torture so I am so happy MacSp's first step is soon. We will be back at the Royal Free tomorrow for a further chat(?) about DH's anaemia. Bloods taken after his TIA on Monday show that his hb has dropped to 7.3 again ( ideal is 11-18 I believe). He doesn't feel as breathless and lethargic as did before when it was low however apart from a bad attack of MAN FLU!!
soop we will be thinking of you and MacS on Weds and sending lots of positive vibes
There is joy in the Bellasnana household today. DD2 and our darling three and a half year old Bella have arrived after three flights (Jacksonville to Chicago to Frankfurt to Malta) Wonderful to have them here as you can imagine. 
Only downside is DH in hospital so won't be able to see little one until Saturday as no children allowed in the hospital.
soop at least you now have a date- such a pity that the journey is fairly long as Oban is a distance away. The days fly past so Wednesday will soon be here
Although not sunny soop, warm, dry, no wind, well not outside. I can live with a day like this.
Welcome back gagagran. I'm quite partial to a Normandy Cidre thank you.
Hello everyone! Sorry not to have been in the kitchen recently. We've had rather a hectic summer and in fact only returned chez-nous in the early hours of this morning from our annual trip to France. I think I've caught up on everyone's doings and send best wishes to all our kitcheners with health problems to cope with, either their own or their loved ones'.
I have put a couple of bottles of Normandy Cidre on the tale - do try it. It's very refreshing!
soop for you and MacS
The appointment is for Wednesday next in Oban hospital scan of neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvis. The consultant told MacS that he believes the lump in his neck is lymphoma.
When I went to the letter box and saw the envelope it was such a relief. MacS is eager to get matters either confirmed and "sorted" or...we may hear good tidings and have ourselves a wee treat.
number I've missed you recently. I'm pleased to hear that your husband's procedure went according to plan. It is the waiting that takes it's toll, isn't it.
Hello dear Anno It is always a treat to have you call into the kitchen.
Agus the weather is lovely today. It is so much warmer and the sea is almost flat calm.
Granny23 for you...even though I do not share your conviction. 
Thank you. Your support means a lot to me. Maybe tomorrow the envelope will be delivered. If so, we will both be mightily relieved...and I shall with you. 
soop I have everything crossed for MacS, hope you hear soon.
