Here we are again
Happy as we can possibly be
ALL GOOD Friends
And jolly good company.
Welcome. 
Sending my love to you, Grandmabatty. A hard blow to bear, even when it’s the kindest thing to have happened. Treasure your good memories.
Soop I can imagine your dilemma as I’ve done similar but in reverse! I sat down in one of those swinging chair things and do you think I could get out again? No, I could not! 
Thankfully Dh launched a rescue mission, which saved the fire brigade having to come out with their heavy lifting equipment. 😳 😂
Agreed about all the litter. I’ve just driven to Stirling along the A9 and the litter is shocking.
Welcome home, Brook!
Lunch with my friend today didn’t happen. I got there and texted to let her know where I was sitting. She texted me back to say that she was still in Inverness and that the lunch appt is for tomorrow. Oh dear! Can I still blame it on the jet lag? We’ve arranged to meet tomorrow evening instead so all is not lost.
I shall try to do better tomorrow. Take care, all. Xxx
Sending love and my condolences grandmabatty You did all that was possible for your friend. Please take care of yourself now. .

Beautiful morning in Suffolk. We have a visiting choir coming to sing evensong in the village church on Sunday so today is cleaning ( mostly removing bat poo!) and moving chairs from the village hall. If only we had a few young and fit people to help! The whole event has caused me sleepless nights - I shall be glad when we get to Monday.
I am sure the service will be lovely and worth it all.
Hope the soops are doing well and that Spring arrives with the changing clocks.
Spring in S E Essex, hailstones, torrential rain and wind
Ideal conditions for the Easter Fair and egg hunt this afternoon with the three youngest GC 🤣🤣🤣🐇🐣👒
Good afternoon dear Kitcheners. I have some good news to share.
Earlier today, had an appointment with the colorectal cancer support team. To cut a long story short, still no cancer markers in blood (yay). Whatever the thingy is in my lungs it hasn’t changed since it was first detected 3 years ago and it isn’t cancerous. Mr. P is going to send me a letter with details and is discharging me back to my GP. If I do have any worrying symptoms in future the GP can refer me back to them and I’ll get seen straight away (strikes etc. permitting). I really do feel like I dodged a bullet again.
There’s a chicken curry in the slow cooker and naan bread that just needs warming in the toaster. I may have a glass or 2 of my favourite wine later. Mr. B isn’t a wine drinker so the bottle will last a few days 
Tomorrow and Sunday is the Spring Steam Gala at the railway museum so I will be out train spotting and taking photos.
Sending hugs to all who need them, and all who don’t need them but would like one anyway!
Blossoming Your happy news has made my day.
SueDonim I cannot help tittering over the wibbly-wobbly chair incident. It was Mr Soop's remark..."I am beginning to get cross..." that triggers the giggles.
On the other hand, the ghastly litter deposits, makes me want to weep with frustration.
We have been blethering with good friends who have returned from a visit to see their son in Australia. We have shared their memories and enjoyed their company.
We also motored into the village in order to test the wheelchair that a pal has let us borrow. I could tell that Mr Soop was short of breath after a relatively short distance. I therefore opted to push it. We have ordered a "walker" with a seat and other helpful attachments. If it arrives in time, we can take it to Glasgow, on the bus, when we meet family in April. Makes sense.
The hernia support arrived today. It is most uncomfortable and restricts the stoma's activity. I have removed it. Changed into loose pj's and feel liberated.
The sun is shining. We are hopeful that Sweetie Pie (feral cat) may honour us with a visit. He called when we were absent. His blankets had been slept on in his apartment. I had fun removing a multitude of muddy paddy-paw prints!
G&T a little later. Yet again, I shall raise a glass of cheer to you all. 
Good evening dear Kitcheners. Today we have been trainspotting . It’s been a bright day but very cold. Lazy evening ahead, another glass or 2 of wine, can’t let that bottle go to waste! More trainspotting tomorrow, I enjoyed walking around and there are plenty of places to rest if I need to. I did have a couple of ‘off balance’ moments today, but nothing serious. It’s just good to be using my legs again!
Have a pleasant evening all, whatever you’re doing ❤️
