Good morning all.
Just popping in to say how lovely to see Elizabeth posting.
Keep up the hard work, it will be worth all the effort.
No sun yet in Stockport but I am still lazing in my bed.
Have the best day you can everyone.

Elizabeth best wishes for a good recovery flowers
And good morning from an overcast and decidedly cooler Birmingham. I’m going to the art gallery today and having lunch with a friend at the Edwardian tearoom. I’ve nearly finished sorting out the spare bedroom- culling books takes such a long time! My daughter is going to take two pieces of furniture, then I have to get rid of the last piece. I will have a nice bright bedroom with white furniture instead.

Good Morning Mick and everyone. Cloudy on S Welsh coast.
Wishing you you a good recovery Elizabeth1

I slept like a log last night following hydrotherapy. The physio I had was excellent and there was another who helped me in and out of the pool. My foot ached afterwards but all part of the healing process I suppose.

DD's birthday today and we are going to our local pub for a meal later, haven't been there since January. Looking forward to it.
Have a pleasant day everyone.

Good morning everyone from another sunny one in Malaga. Just made made husband laugh when I suggested we have a game of tennis later ‘before it gets too hot’. (We have a beautifully kept court next to the gardens). I haven’t picked up a tennis racquet since senior school!

Sending you my very best wishes Elizabeth1 for your recovery. You sound as though you are a model patient in that hospital and I’m sure the staff will be delighted as their efforts bear fruit.

There are some witty posts this morning ladies! I love having a giggle on here with my first cuppa of the day (always the best one and I’m glad I’m not chucking it over myself).

Love the thought of you supervising from the comfort of the conservatory cornergran and your depreciating remark about yourself Ginny42.

Hope Wednesday is good to us all, whether we have plans or (like me) none. x

Good morning all from a greyish Morecambe. After breakfast, we are going to go for a drive.

Great to see you posting Elizabeth. Please keep in touch when you are able.

Good morning all from cloudy Northampton. I admire your spirit Elizabeth1 and I’m sure you’ll find lots of support here as you work towards your new normal. I have a day off from looking after my daughter and am taking my car in to get the air conditioning sorted and going to the hairdresser this morning. Hope to have a sit down with s good book this afternoon, my knees and feet are feeling the pressure.

Elizabeth1 sending admiration and hugs in equal measure! What a feisty spirit and so brave. Glad you're being taken good care of and you're right to concentrate on the kindness of the angels and ignore the unpleasant few. Their loss. Would like to have seen the grandsons vying to push your wheelchair. Did you go round in circles?

Do let us know how you're doing. flowers

Good Morning everyone from my hospital bed in Cameron Hospital windygates ygates I’m pleased to say I’m recovering in small stagesfrom having had a stroke.itsbeen a hellish journey however I’ve made it thus so far from receiving best wishes from family and friends there’s somuch to learn about being patient.and enjoying the simple little things in life I’m having to rely on folks to hand me thingsfromfrom my bedside Table Im also learning to stand with the help of the physio’s who are so very lovely. There are a few angels working here here and a few who needlessons in kindnesshowever I’m not going to dwell on the negative I’ve so many folks rooting for me. My two little grandsons brought me sunshine when they visited me at the weekend both thought they would help push my wheelchair at the same time . And I get cuddles from them. Bye for now everyone I’ll post again soon. -

Morning Mick, you seem to have your day sorted! The weather looked foul on the Giro D' Italia circuit yesterday Mick. Riders poured hot tea on themselves to warm up? Rather them than me!

Waging war on the squirrels eating my roses. May make a scarecrow of myself as they ran when I opened the door yesterday, so I'm clearly very scary.

Out walking with neighbours this morning and again this afternoon with a friend.

Enjoy whatever you've got planned for today everyone.

Good Morning everyone.
Dry and cloudy on Severnside this morning. I hope it cheers up and we see some blue sky.
Homework day for me and nothing else planned.
Wishing the best day for you all ?

Morning Mick, morning All from a grey and dismal looking corner of Somerset. Off down the motorway early-ish so Mr C can help one of ours with garden ‘stuff’. Forecast is for rain. I feel my best supervisory head coming on. There’s a good view from the conservatory grin. Hope Wednesday is kind to everyone.
