Morning Belle :-)

Lovely news re, your Gt Niece :-D
Is she planning to go on to A levels next?

We had a weather warning in the southeast for torrential rain and thunderstorms :-0

It went very dark between 7 am and 8 o'clock and I hurried to get a washload finished in case the electric went.
We had the lightest of showers about 8.15 and now it's brilliant sunshine :-S

Morning Gwyn <3 :-D

The sun has come out now and it is rather humid. I tracked the thunderstorms they stayed on the south side of the Channel moving along the French coast :-0

Yes, Gt Niece will be going on to do A levels, she got ten 9s in her GCSEs :-0 :-D <3
I must have missed out on those genes ;-)

Thank you Belle.... No I wasn't cut off ;-)

Liver and kidney function 'normal, no action required', but have to wait for a clinician to look at results for full blood count :-S
I'll wait until next week, as I know from experience that they don't hurry :-|

Afternoon all. <3 :-D

You’re right, Ann. He is still away until 6 Sept so K had go to school to collect the results envelope this morning and we were not allowed to open it. We FaceTimed them and opened the envelope and placed the results to face the screen so he saw them first and could photograph them. He did very well and he has got on to the four A level courses of his first choice.

He is a very cool, calm and collected customer and it looked as though his Mum had just dragged him out of bed when we FaceTimed. I texted back an hour or so later for a chat and he had gone to play golf with his Dad so I never got to speak with him.

Good news for your great-niece, Belle, and for A, Ann.

Gndson 1 (now 21) is away again, too. Gnddtr just came back on Monday but flies off again in four weeks. They take some keeping track now - too much for K and me. :-S
