Naughty Cyns!

Dea glad the wanderer returned ;-)

LK I wasn't about for lunch hope you had a nice one :-)

Gins glad you are getting better <3

I had a podiatry appointment today. First they were running 30 minutes late then it took an hour to d/w me . Left just in time to hit rush hour :-(

So decided just to go and do the weekly shop as the day was gone anyway.

Just having a little hide in here; my Dad would have been 99 today. Just over 25 years since he died, but I still wanted to buy a birthday card for him :(

Going out again tonight!


The dinner last night was for the invited speaker at a "function" tonight ..........


........ OH and I have only known her since 1971 :-D


She was my boss's first PhD student back then, but has been at the very top of her field for the last 30-35 years

She has not changed one little tiny bit! She is still the same very natural, friendly, "no side to her" that she was then. So's her husband.



It was lovely to be with her and her husband, and2 other couples connected with the Garden, last night.

Joy...... <3

It's funny you should mention your dad's birthday - I only said to OH on the 2nd March did he realise his mum would have been 100 that day? No...he hadn't!

We'll always miss our parents but we carry them in our hearts forever. :-)


Just back in from you-know-where. Well, it IS Lent. Got home and realised that I had left my phone there so got back in the car and off I went again........sigh. Just when I wanted to put my jamas on!! All sorted now..... :-D

Its a small world. My father would have been 106 years old yesterday. I always wish him a happy birthday on the 6th of March even though he has now been dead for over 40 years.

Linda,

I had a little chuckle to myself about your comment about your Podiatry appointment. Should podiatrists be running? Isn't that likely to upset their patients who probably have problems just walking? :-)

Had a letter with some bad news today .........

........ my best friend from the day we met on the first day at Grammar School at the age of 11, died in late January.

I knew she was ill, and bedridden, but it still came as a shock ........

......... even more of a shock to her sister, who was doing some necessary care when B had a massive cardiac attack, and was gone. Sister, who was a nurse, obeyed instructions, and did not attempt CPR ........... B had asked not to be resuscitated. It then took the sister some time to find my address in B's book.


B emigrated to Sydney in 1962/3, and lived in Sydney then Mudgee, NSW ... where Lewella also lived. Does anyone remember Lew???.


Her sister persuaded B to move to Ireland in 2011 to live with her (the sister) .......... and B had been bedridden from that time.


B was the kind of friend who you don't meet often, because of distance, but you pick up right where you left off 5 or 10 years later. We last stayed with B in 2006.

OH also knew her well, of course, and is also very upset.


RIP B xxxx
