Oh for goodness sake Shelly, kids. That means he will be in plaster all over christmas. I hope he can manage the loo on his own, I certainly would not have liked to have to wiped my son's BTM, I know what smelly little B's they can be at that age.
Serves him right for showing of, but then we have all been guilty of that at some time or another.

Dermot, electric wheelchair users around this way, should be given speeding tickets. They have no thoughts for others on foot,especially for
us of the older generation. I have been nearly run over by them on several occasions. And I understand that they may need them, but when out in cars, drivers are warned to be careful in built up areas, because of pedestrians.

I hope you are surviving the grandaughter invasion Jean. We are waiting for our youngest two to turn up. As soon as they have gone, out comes the hoover to clear up the residue of crisps etc.

Is there anymore news on the NZ disaster, as I have not as yet caught up with the news. Roly is watching the darts on ITV4, hence my being on here a bit earlier.

Pauline I always seem to miss the breakfast club. Maybe we should start a luncheon club, so that it is still warm by the time I get here.
I think I will make the afternoon drinks for us all.

There was so much breakfast this morning that we could have invited the whole site..........no black pudding though.

Hi everybody.

Rita, I've tried everything, nothing works.

Jean, my aunt had a mastectomy when she was 50, she's nearly 93 now and still going strong. If you need to have one I'm sure it'll all go well.

With the increasing interest in electric vehicles, will Americans still hit 'the gas' upon accelerating, or have they started using another term? 'Stamp on the amps' or 'Jolt the volts'?

Dermot I do hope the miners come out of this alive and well. I dont think they are down as far as the Camp Hope ones were ? . I dont know if that is a good thing or bad.? I have miners in my family some in Wales and some in County Durham. Bishop Auclands. but I have not heard from them for years.

Jean my mother had that operation in 1968 they have advanced so much more since then.
. I have spoken to people who have had the operation within the last two years and all have said they are clear now and thankfull for being able to have the operation. so try and put your mind at rest dear, they would not sujest it if they didnt think it would be right for you. but dont jump the gun
your scan might turn out fine and you will have been worrying for nothing.

Stephen I think you are doing a good job with the Homeless it is a shame we have to have homeless people but we have always had them,as far back as I can recall. but we do seem to be having more and more. My sister supposrts the homeless charities and her church do all they can for them.

Jean your showing off with your cooking and tea cups Lol. you had better give me a few lessons.
Shelly glad your dinner was on time fancy not having eggs in I always have them as a standby. you should have whistled and I would have brought them to you on my broomstick it is alway ready on standby for emergencies.

Linda you seem to be Ok with your Hospital results then. thats good.

Porridge, Various Cereals, Fresh Grapefruit Segments, Fresh Juices,
Poached Eggs or Scrambled, Grilled Bacon, Tomatoes, Mushrooms,
Toast, Butter or Marmalade. Etc

All on the Hot Plate. Help yourselves.

It's Saturday..........or is it.......another busy day ahead.........I think I should have gone to Florida for a rest. LOL

The run up to the Year end is always a busy time for everyone. This year I seem to be busier than ever.

She who must be obeyed, will be wanting the Christmas decorations brought down from the loft in the next week or so. Seems like I just put them up there. The year has flown in
I like when the house is 'made up' for Christmas and New Year it brings a bit of brightness to these dark days.

After the grandchildren arrived Christmas was 'special' again. I love to see their wee faces as they open their presents.

They don;t get totally spoiled though. We're not that kind of family.

The children also know we are celebrating the birth of Jesus.

On Christmas day the church provides a Lunch for the Homeless. Always well attended. I go from that to a Castle for a family do.......the contrast is unbelievable.

We support the homeless throughout the year. Food parcels and Home Packs every Thursday and a breakfast every Sunday. Clothing packs are given also

A wee bit of help to those less fortunate than us, for whatever reason.

Now that I've finished that epistle I better get ready for the daylight arriving.

Catch you all later........GR permitting that is !!!!!!!!!!!!

Jean I hope that the medication has worked but if not I am sure there is somebody on the boards that can give you advice. Also don't forget the Breast Cancer Charity, and MacMillan too.
I have to go back to the dermatologist in about 6 weeks.Well after Christmas and New Year anyway. They were running so late the booking clerk had gone home by the time we saw the consultant. I carry on with the scalp lotion and have a prescription for cream to use where I used to have eyebrows !!!

Well off to bed now. Hubby will be up at 5:00, hopefully I will sleep later.

Catch up tomorrow

Hi, thanks Mo, I will try to take things easy, but Scarlett has reached the stage of wanting to stand up all the time, and she bounces around like a ball.

Stephen, thanks for that, I dont know why I panicked, but I hadn't actually considered that an op may be needed, stupid me.

Take care.

Jean,

Two very close friends, sisters, have had mastectomy operations.

Both are fine and have never looked back. It took away a lot of worry for them.

Hello Jean.
I hope and pray that the scan will have a good outcome. I'm afraid I can't help you about the mastectomy, but one of the other girls on our thread may know someone who has undergone the proceedure,and come out the other side.
Have a lovely weekend with the baby, but don't overdo it.

Stephen can you please translate for us, I'm afraid I dont understand double dutch.

Hi all, what has happened to this thread, just taken me 10 minutes to get on, and it looks like lots of pages have disappeared.
Hope you are all ok, and looking forward to a good weekend.
Only 2 more weeks now then have my scans, the doctor asked me today if I had thought about the possibility of having a mastectomy if the radio therapy and chemo haven't been effective, that took me by surprise, dont know why, should have given it some thought I suppose. Please can I ask if anyone has had that operation?
Just been watching the news, I feel so sorry for the people living in Cornwall, and they gave another weather warning out for tonight.
Oh well, best get some work done, am having my grandaughter for the weekend, and cant do very much when she is here.

Hope you all have a great weekend.
Take care and stay safe.

I saw the new ones going into the House of Lords. what a shock they have gone to the bottom of the bucket for this lot. I expect it is because the Lords and Ladys dont bother to turn up and when they do they fall asleep.
