Great news from Baggs,thank you.
Lost my post yesterday when the site went AWOL.

Anyway, safe journey home soop, please rest as much as possible, no dusting! grin
Best wishes to MacSporren too, he must be feeling exhausted and drained.

flowers to all of that are struggling with health problems.
kitty well done to your dsgs! grin

I’ll send you a few to practice on N&G (spiders, not dentists ?)!

Charleygirl5 Fri 15-Mar-19 10:07:34

MacSporran really must look after himself and rest. The last few days have been sheer hell for him- it is a horrendous journey.

Callgilr young Max does not look very happy, the tears are not far away. He is growing so quickly.

Kitty that was generous of Pa to equal the tooth fairy- hopefully she will not be visiting too often. Bertie looks pleased, I am not sure if it is the gap in his mouth or the fact he is so rich now he will have to be escorted to the BS to bank his money.

Corner lovely photos, a holiday you are unlikely to forget.

Mr C was white as a sheet by the time he got me home after major surgery and that only took 30 minutes hmm. Thinking about macs and soop today has made me realise how lucky we are to have hospitals locally and only an hour away for very specialist treatment.

Oh the tooth fairy. We’ve learned the hard way never to match offerings from such beings kitty. grin. Bertie the Beave that’s for sure and as greyd says he will have better teeth soon.

Good wishes for your granddaughter marydoll, it must be scary for her and all of you.

Family ‘stuff’ is long term I fear kitty, it will pass one day though, in the meantime I think I may just run away to sea grin. Alternatively I may look for a holiday later in the year, somewhere with no mobile signal would be an excellent choice.

Off for a food shop now. Seriously Mother Hubbard here and we have a small extra mouth to feed later with some very specific requirements smile.

Take care all, stay safe.

Best wishes for the trauma that poor OH is going throughSynonymous
I hope Soop and Mcs have a painless (as far as possible) journey home , take it handy , as they say around here

annsixty Fri 15-Mar-19 11:19:09

All good wishes to soop and her DH today.
No place like home.
Thinking of Synonymous and her DH today, what an awful thing to have to face.
Best wishes to everyone else with illness and family problems. I know just how much they get you down, day after day.

eilyann Fri 15-Mar-19 11:39:23

Just to say safe and not too uncomfortable journey to Soop and McS I don't know whose shoes I'd rather be in! Lots of rest and quiet now. Also Syn and mr Syn lots of good wishes to you both and flowers to all facing problems.

Feelingmyage55 Fri 15-Mar-19 12:08:13

Very best wishes to both the soops. Safe driving.
synonymous the operation and rehab is not an easy situation to face but I hope that your husband’s long term health improves as the infection problem is solved. I hope that removing the pain and infection makes him more comfortable. So sorry for his situation.
Feeling very sad at the tragedy in NZ.
Friday used to be cake day at work, so was inspired to make home made. Doughnuts. On the side. Eat them quickly. They do not improve in keeping!

Izabella Fri 15-Mar-19 12:10:58

synonmymous ((((((((hugs))))))))

and thank you for the donuts fma A perfect pick up

Panache Fri 15-Mar-19 15:02:26

My word you are certainly all "well oiled" and chatty and it seems dear Soop will need many breaks in between the catching up on the few days she has been away from our Kitchen!!!
Great news,very uplifting hearing from your lovely friends Baggs and Marydoll the good news that you are on your way ^hame!Would not expect you to go on taking advantage of the NHS Hospitalityt when you have your own dear hands on nurse Mcsporran himself to take good care of you...............and as has been repeatedly mentioned.............recovery begins at home every time.
Well done indeed and just as I expected from you of course.

With home being the place where true recovery really starts this is the best news at this point,however whomever sad she will need to be forcibly “tied down” is not far wrong, because she will truly need good rest and relaxation during these early days.
Further more I am concerned for McSporran whom is proving such a stalwart carer, but even the best will feel the weight of all that travelling as well as the concerns he will have been facing.
However I can but wish you a very warm and meaningful Home coming and truly a troublefree recovery up aheadSoop

Hoping to be back later to further catch up...............where oh! where does these days go to??

1inamillion Fri 15-Mar-19 15:07:30

All good wishes to Mr and Mrs Synonymous and Mr and Mrs Cornergran. As fairly newby I am still reading all the posts and am saddened by the many problems faced by so many GN's.
Hope that Soop and her DH have a safe journey home.
Have left some butternut squash soup in the kitchen.

Baggs Fri 15-Mar-19 15:30:47

soop's progress: she's currently at the Loch Fyne Oyster Bar enjoying coffee and flapjack ???? Half way!

kittylester Fri 15-Mar-19 15:32:04

I've just popped back to see if there is any more news and to leave you with this fab photo of the adorable (And sturdy!!) Wolfie!

kittylester Fri 15-Mar-19 15:33:36

Thank you baggs we cross posted!!

dragonfly46 Fri 15-Mar-19 15:57:09

Thank you baggs.

Wolf is lovely kitty

annsixty Fri 15-Mar-19 16:11:30

Such a lovely, happy, smiley baby.
It is good to see and know such simple happiness exists in a very troubled world.
I wish all our problems could be wiped away and equilibrium restored by a warm bubbly bath.

aggie Fri 15-Mar-19 16:20:36

Oh my word , what a smiley gorgeous baby ! bet you can't stop smiling when you look at that picture !

Kalu Fri 15-Mar-19 17:14:13

Thanks for the update Baggs. Lovely spot to stop and re fuel?☕️ Shouldn’t be too much longer now?

Haste he back Soop and Macs

NanaandGrampy Fri 15-Mar-19 17:16:34

Kitty that boy is squishable !! I love a well made baby and he has a smile that will melt hearts !!

Glad to hear Soop is well on here way, she's been missed.

See you all tomorrow x

Kalu Fri 15-Mar-19 17:18:42

Oh Kitty.... what a fabulous pic of Woolfie. Can’t help but smile along with him.

callgirl1 Fri 15-Mar-19 17:26:13

What a lovely, happy baby, he`s gorgeous! I hope you managed to rescue the poor little mouse? I think Mia`s getting crafty, I haven`t caught her with one for months, she`s probably sick of me taking the poor little things off her and releasing them round the front.
Thank you for the news on Soop, Baggs, good to hear that they didn`t get blown off Rest and be Thankful! I hope she has a good rest when she`s home, MacSporran as well, he`ll need it after all that driving.
Corner, another lovely photo, I`m so envious that you saw the Northern Lights.
I hope that Mr and Mrs Synonymous haven`t had too gruelling a day.
CharleyG, I didn`t think that Max looked unhappy. They`re coming to see me over the weekend, I`m told he has 5 teeth now, so I`ll be keeping my fingers away from his mouth!

callgirl1 Fri 15-Mar-19 17:27:54

PS. N&G, I`m not sure about the giant spiders, I`d probably choose the dentist before them!!

Charleygirl5 Fri 15-Mar-19 17:28:17

kitty What a gorgeous, happy, handsome little fellow. He is having a great time. He will thank his parents for producing this photo about 21 years from now!

Delighted to hear that soop and MacSporran have stopped off for a break. They both need to go to bed when they arrive home.

Thanks Baggs.

Willow500 Fri 15-Mar-19 17:34:57

Thank you Baggs and Marydoll for the Soop updates - they will both need some down time when they finally get home to recuperate just from the journey as well as Soop's operation!

Kitty Alfie is one happy smilie boy for sure - lovely photo!

I found something totally disgusting on the living room floor this morning so Alfie had obviously had a productive mouse hunting night - at least he didn't lose that one under the sofa shock

1inamillion Fri 15-Mar-19 17:35:30

What a gorgeous happy baby.
Loch Fyne Oyster bar is lovely, a long time since we were there though.
Wishing Mr and Mrs Soop a safe journey.
