Gins .................



so glad to hear about J xxxxx



It reminds me of 21 years ago ................ OH and daughter had been living in NZ, were within 2 weeks of coming home, planning big party, had to clean up the house, pack up, etc etc.

I got a phone call here to say his mother, in a care home in England, was at death's door. Get here ASAP.

They dropped everything, managed to get on a flight the very next day ........... via Singapore to UK.

Walked into mother's room, she's flat in the bed, looking very ill. She opens her eyes, looks at daughter and says, "You need your hair cutting" ........... which was what she used to say to OH every time he went home.

Next day, she was able to sit up for a little while, and drink some tea.

Ten days later, they had to leave, and m-i-l was out of bed, sitting up in a chair for short periods :-D


The next 6 or 7 months were the best we'd had with her for years ................ she was writing very coherent letters to us every Sunday

She did die in the December, very peacefully, and was buried on her 83rd birthday.

Gins.....that was thoughtful of the gang to let you have some space. You need to build up some emotional strength.......


I've been trying to sort out Evelyn's thread for hours and hours.........would love to co-ordinate it so that it's easy to see what has been found over the last 4 years but it sure ain't easy........................zzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxxxxxxxzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzxxxxxxxxxx :-S

Have browsed around......OH has been swapping channels......first of all it was Roy Rogers - the film was all tinted green it was so old. Then he moved onto Seven which is horrific. He came off that and is now on a Steven Seagal film........I suppose variety is the spice of life!

Ohhh - Good morning Cynths :-)

I couldn't get in here for all those error messages - It looks like we both arrived to sort breakfast at the same time and you manages to sneak in before me :-D

We will combine our efforts and everyone can have a special treat this morning ;-) :-D

I prefer your sausages anyway, they have a lovely flavour <3

See you all later,
