Good Morning Everyone,
Its dark, but dry here in Brackley this morning, usual Tuesday, housework to start then prepare for my bus trips to Buckingham and Bicester .
Mind you my return route takes me through villages effected by the East-West Rail link and HS2.
Had to get a new mouse yesterday and keyboard so things are better today.

Wasn’t going to post this morning but had to pass on my condolences to Emily on Gaijin’s passing - so sad to lose a staunch member on this thread. Take care everyone x

Good morning all,

Emily, thank you so much for posting to tell us about your lovely Mum. Oldgaijin brought many a smile to us with her wicked sense of humour and posts about her walks with her mutt, Mojo. She very kindly sent me a recipe once for cranachan which was so kind of her. (It's delicious).

Sending you my sincere condolences and a virtual hug.
A lovely lady who will be missed here by so many. ??

Not a regular poster on this thread but I wanted to pass my condolences on to you Emily and your family, regarding the passing of your dear Mum oldgaijin. She will be greatly missed by all who knew ( either virtually or in reality) and loved her, including ‘the Mutt’ of course.
Thoughts with you all today flowers.

Thank you Emily for letting us know how considerate and kind she must of been proud to have a daughter like you. God bless her now and you?

How thoughtful of Emily to let us know her sad news. We will all miss her mum’s brave and often amusing observations on life.

But yes, “life goes on”, and here it is bed changing and perhaps a foray into the garden which is full of snowdrops and hellebores as well as a flutter of assorted small birds in the feeders. Briefly, it feels as if spring is out there somewhere after what has felt like the longest January ever.

I don't often comment on this thread but always read it. I am so sad to read of Oldgaijin's death. Thank you Emily for letting us know. So many of us had been keeping her in our hearts and prayers ever since her last post on here. Now I shall keep you in my prayers as you face the future without your mum xx

Emily, I read this thread every morning but don’t often post on it. Just want to wish you love this morning on the loss of your mum. You have happy memories which you will have for ever. Look after yourself. xx

Dear Emily, so kind to think of us. Your Mums spirit lives with you. As always saying I’m so sorry for your loss is not enough but all I can do. Love to you, Mutt and your family. I’m remembering your Mum with a smile and looking at ‘her’ daffodils. .

My woozy meds. induced head wasn’t working properly when I posted Slainte to oldgaijin, inappropriate under the circumstances. My apologies Emily, not the sentiment I wished to convey. ?

Nannytopsy Tue 04-Feb-20 08:57:50

Good morning Mick and all his followers and especially Emily for letting us know the sad news. We shall miss Old Gaijin and send you our love. ?

gillybob Tue 04-Feb-20 08:53:10

For our friend OldGaijin x

Nortsat46 Tue 04-Feb-20 08:42:58

Thank you so much Emily for sharing your sad news with us, it is kind of you to think of others at this time.

Your mum (and the mutt) will be remembered with great fondness here, by women right across the country, with daffodils in their windows, lighting candles in her memory and raising toasts in her honour.

She spoke of you with great love and that will help to sustain you, through the next stages of your journey.

Rest in peace Oldgaijin ?
