Rosesandlilac, at least you now know what is going on after all the waiting. Sending you a hug ๐Ÿค— and support as you go forth with your treatment, stay strong and positive, the medics do such wonderful work now with happy outcomes. Keep the faith ๐Ÿ™. Thinking of you ๐Ÿ’.

Happy birthday, Kupari. I hope you're enjoying your day ๐Ÿ’.

Good morning everyone from sunny Lancashire.

It rained heavily here yesterday evening but the sun is back now. More cloud about than recent days. MrB and I have enjoyed a walk around the dock and woodland path. Steam trains are running all weekend.

As always, thinking of those with troubles in their lives.

Wishing you a good day whatever youโ€™re doing.

Good morning all and a very happy birthday to you Mick, hope you enjoy your day, it sounds lovely and relaxing.

Good morning from still sunny West Sussex.

Happy Birthday Mick ๐ŸŽ‚. Hope you have a lovely day.

Happy Birthday also to Kupari45 ๐ŸŽ‚

Happy Birthday to all the others sharing May 2nd ๐ŸŽ‚ ๐Ÿฅณ

TheWeirdoAgain60 , sorry to hear youโ€™ve injured yourself and hope the pain eases soon.

RosesandLilac, Iโ€™m sorry to hear your news but glad you are on the two week path now, rather than being in limbo. Once you know more and start some treatment things will, I hope, be more positive for you.

Iโ€™ve got part two of my dental extractions this afternoon - an upper wisdom tooth and a โ€˜stumpโ€™ of a much repaired tooth to come out. Soup and scrambled egg will be about all I can eat for the rest of the weekend ๐Ÿ˜•.

Hope everyone on Mickโ€™s delightful thread has as good a day as possible ๐ŸŒท

Can I share Mick's Birthday. I'm 81 today! First birthday without D.H. as he died in February. Miss my flowers from him. Hope you all have a lovely day.

My GD and her BF are taking me to Grasmere on Tuesday, one night in a hotel there and back on Wednesday evening.
It was a favourite place for my H and me so Iโ€™m delighted so many of you love it too

Good morning everyone from cloudy Lancashire and happy birthday Mick! ๐ŸŽ‚

Lovely photos Bellasnanna and Gelisajams.
We love Grasmere too and I've spent many a happy hour choosing jigsaws from the vast selection in Barney's Newsbox.
DH has stipulated he wants his ashes scattering at Easedale Tarn, hopefully many years from now.

RosesandLilac, keeping you in my prayers. My MiL had small cell lung cancer successfully treated in her mid 80s. She found making decisions about her treatment harder than the treatment itself.

Hope your meal goes well, FriedGreenTomatoes. Such a lovely idea. Tears don't matter. If you can't cry about losing a loved one, what can you cry about?

A quiet day here. DH has taken the little chap to Tesco to give me chance to get some jobs done.

Wishing everyone a good day.

Good morning from a sunny NE after overnight rain.
Happy Birthday Mick ๐Ÿบ
Yesterday DD and SIL came for lunch and sat and chatted while we waited for a delivery.
We went to the supermarket and then cooked dinner together.
Today DS and GD2 will visit, brightens my weekend to see them and enjoy the music they play.
Thinking of you RosesandLilac, a virtual hand hold at this difficult time ๐Ÿ’

A very late good morning from S Hants, we slept in.
Happy Birthday Mick cheers ๐Ÿป.
Not the best news Roses but you now have some idea of whatโ€™s happening, hugs x
Yesterday a walk, Tesco delivery and pub which was very busy in the sunshine.
Today in hope scatter some seeds and fingers crossed we get the forecast rain.
Very pretty Gelisjams

Good morning from Durham. It rained through the night, but todayโ€™s forecast is dry, cloudy, but warm.
Happy Birthday ๐ŸŽ Mick
DD2 has asked if I want to meet up with her and DGS2 later, while her DH, safely home from New York yesterday, is at a home match. I await my instructions.
๐Ÿ’*R&L*. Support is here, as you donโ€™t seem to get much at home!
Safe travels to those on land, sea and air.

Best wishes to all. X
