Morning

Off to work on a very grey Saturday. May even pass Martyn in the car park as he's just finishing a nightshift 😄
Dental Hospital was fine yestertday. In and out in less than 10 minutes and only one appointment left on 10th May 🙂

Walked into town for a few bits afterwards, and whilst on the bus home there were hailstones the size of golf balls Was so pleased we were stuck in traffis so just a bit of rain when I had to get off 😉
Have a good day everyone 🙂

[bitsnknots]

Morning all.  Mum's not too bad this morning but we will be keeping the dentist appointment this afternoon.

Bright sunshine here and erm, frost as well!!!  Before I go anywhere this morning, it will be defrost the car again.  It's got beyond a joke now.  I mean frost at the end April has got to be a joke hasn't it?

[stan3502]

((((((((((((( books mum and PCC ))))))))))))).

you'll be fine PCC and just remeber that all you have to do is turn the lappy on and there'll always be someone here for you :-x

Good luck at the dentist's with your mum Chris 🙂

Huggles......................of course cheat what's the point of being stuck in the kitchen when you could be sat in the garden knitting ;-).

Just been to pick up a huge meat order off a local that I ordered last night and as the forecast is good will be putting a BBQ on this afternoon to see if I can entice a few more peeps into the pub :-D.

[huggles1253]

Morning, well I'm going to have to cheat now I feel like someone has danced on my head! Only stayed at the club until ten, came home and was played with wine and brandy by the boys. Olly had taken a new girlfriend to carlucchios (very nice girl who lives on our road and they went to other village infants together, born the same day!) and James has just had his pay rise after a year of his apprenticeship from £2.60 an hour to minimum wage. 

OH has gone to see some new tenants into a house and I need to get up.

[hightara]

morning loonies........and new loony lauren:-x

books hope yer mammy gets sorted, when i couldnt get a dental appointment for an abscess, i got an antibiotic of the doctor as it needs sorted......... unbelievable pain.

yesterday i was decided i would eat a bounty bar i had in the freezer (likes cold chocky)

and my front crown fell out.

the kids have been peeing themselves laughing every time i smile, and when i talk i whistle through the gap.

can get it sorted on monday though

hugs to pcc, CG, rainy and one for anyone else that needs one :-x

[bitsnknots]

Thanks for all your kind wishes for my mum.  I'll be back later to let you know how she got on.

Hugs to everyone.

:-x

[bitsnknots]

Not been back long.  The problem is that mum's got an abscess on the remainder of a root of a tooth she had taken out years and years ago.  The dentist wouldn't take the root out with mum being on warfarin.  She's been given antibiotics and I had to struggle to find a chemist that was actually open.  She will have to make an appointment with the dentist to get sorted.

[chickengrandma-2008]

Hope she'll be ok books.:-D  Look what I've got to look forward to.  Mine will only be for three to six months though.  I hope.  Best wishes to her.xx.

[bitsnknots]

Aww thanks very much CG.  Hope that you are feeling much better today.  Sending you lots of gentle hugs.

:-x

[mandymoosie]

Chris I hope the antibiotics kick in and help your Mum soon, toothache is just the worst thing on earth I think.

I know what you mean about the frosts too, I have to keep bringing my Lavender in in the evening, it should be hardy but where it's so young and tender, I don't want to take the chance, I wish the weather would just warm up and stay that way, winter seems to have been very long this year, keeping everything crossed that we get a nice summer 😄

PCC sending hugs to you, I know you're really scared, but I'm sure you're going to be fine, we're always here whenever you need us :-x

It's so bloomin cold here today, can't believe we're at the end of April 😞

Love and hugs to all :-x

[bitsnknots]

Thanks Mandy. Mum's still in some pain but she is taking paracetamol which is helping with the pain.  We've decided on any early night tonight as mum's absolutely shattered and I'm not far behind.  

I know what you mean about the lavender.  Our lavender plants are well established so they aren't too affected by the weather.  I agree Mandy - this winter seems to have dragged on for far too long.  I, too, just want some nice, warm weather.  I think that in this country, we have earned a good summer this year.

[hightara]

books oil of cloves if you have them......may ease the pain somewhat......

it was glorious here today in ireland.........sun still shining...........downside was i got all the washing done....and had to iron it all.

still getting the pee took out of me with our boys and my missing front tooth

one said...... you look like you should be on jeremy kyle

the other said.... i looked like i should have acted in deliverance X-(:^O

[bitsnknots]

I don't know if we have any oil of cloves in Tara but I will check.  It seems to be teeth at the moment.  Hope that you get your crown sorted out on Monday.  

I've just finished knitting a matinee coat and it just needs sewing up now.  The problem is that the sewing up department is asleep.  My mum volunteered to sew it up for me so that I could start on my next project but mum is sleeping at the moment.  I don't mind as I am hoping that the sleep will do her good.

[stan3502]

Morning

grey and cooler here today but still got a mountain of washing on the line.

Fab day with the BBQ yesterday and managed to raise just over £150 for Syringohydromyelia research :-x

Right off to sort out my mdcc listings and bottle up before I open ....................

[huggles1253]

They didn't go until 2.00 am!  This was my cheat starter.  

Then I cooked Beef Strogonoff and then We had bought puddings!
