Linda, you posted while I was typing, I really need to speed up my typing.

You'll wear yourself out at this rate Linda, be careful you don't overdo it.

Morning all.

What............no Linda again? Hope you aren't giving yourself too much work Linda.

No Jean again either...............try to stay strong Jean, only another week of treatment after this week.

Mo, I'm really pleased you don't have a DVT, they're so dangerous. I've never heard of the thing you've got but it sounds painful. Mind you, my hubby would have said the same thing as yours did, sarcastic so and sos aren't they.

I wonder if Shelly went off to practice making Toad in the Hole. Let us know if you managed it Shelly.

Yvonne is still working hard, Liz is on the missing list and Stephen still has no Internet, he's probably saving up to take us all out.

What's Goosey Fair Marilyn? Sounds like loads of stalls where people are selling geese. I know it won't be, but can't figure out why it would be called that.

Rita, I'm so sorry to hear about your SIL, it must be so hard to watch him and not be able to help. I really hope that when the chemo is finished he'll be able to eat again and built his strength up.

And poor Megan, she's gone through such a lot, she deserves a bit of good luck. In fact your whole family need to have a change in luck, I hope things start to improve soon.

Morning all
Sorry I didn't come here yesterday. It was a busy day.
Little M came early and has tonsillitus. The 3yr old twins came at 8:30 and have ruuny noses and coughs. Lots of playing. Lots of crayoning. Lots of reading. Many mouths to feed. Then a walk to school to collect a 5 yr old.
Little M went home at 6:00. The 3 sisters not til nearly 7:00.
The same again today.
Hope everyone is well

Hope to read again later.

Linda :o)

You sound happy Mo I am pleased you are. I have never heard of Bakers cyst. I have a sebaisis cyst not sure i have spelt that right had them since I was17 years old have them drained every so often. it is not painful I have one on my shoulder and on on my hip.

I have heard from my daughter alittle while ago she is off her crutches but has to be careful for a month they have discharged her from hospital.

My young Granddaughter Megan who had the bowel Operation is home but not too good they are keeping an eye on her as they think she might have to go back into hospital.

My Son Law Steve is having a bad time he is tired all the time and unable to eat he is gradually wasting away.he has one my Chemo. I am hoping after that he will start feeling better and beable to eat

It is such a worry I am not able to help that is the worst part of it. I will have to hope someone above shows some love for them and gives them a chance,

Love Rita

Hi all.
Good news, it's not a DVT. Apparantly, I have got what is called a bakers cyst, behind my knee. But not happy with having one, I had to be greedy and get two that are rubbing against each other, causing the pains.
I have now got to wait and make an appointment with my doctor, for pain killers and physio.
I have googled the type of cyst, and they can be drained, but it depends on what my doctor recommends.
When they told me what it was, Roly was very sarcastic and said it cant be a bakers cyst, she don't do that much baking anymore. Cheeky so and so.

Has Jean been in to speak to us today or yesterday. I hope she is o.k.

It's absolutely chucking it down with rain at the moment. Some of our area got flooded this morning, but we did not get that downpour, thank god.

I hope you are all o.k.

Hi Pauline
My Husband use to sea fish when we lived in Caister Norfolk as it was on the coast 3 minutes to get to the sea if that. ? and he caught Sea Trout and I use to cook it we didnt even know that it was sea trout we were told by one of the old fishermen who had been born there and fished all his life what it was. I use to cook it the same way as Salmon.
This John caught when we were at his mothers in Scotland you had to have permit on Bervie beach to catch these as they would check to seewhat size it was. there was a little inlet when the sea came it filled up and then the sea went out and it left sea water and baby salmon in there was a name for these little ones cannot recall what that was now. but I use to take them back to M I L bungalow and she would clean them and grill them for our tea.they were lovely.
He caught Sea Bream as well

I have been busy this morning did Sausages and onions in the oven for dinner as I had the oven on I made a little" toad in the hole" and a large "Apple Sponge"as well. save money on the gas.

so I have been very busy and still not done my typing. I wonder where Elizabeth and Yvonne and Lady are we have not heard from them for sometime. I know Jean is not that well I do hope she is soon feeling much better.and Sue seem to have left us.

I haven't seen any spiders in the house yet. But now that I've said that........ I'll probably start getting them.

Rita, I'm sure if you ask nicely, Marilyn will take you with her when she goes out for the day. It'll do you good to get away from the spiders.

Come on Marilyn, take our Rita out for the day.

Hope Jean's coping with her treatment, not long now Jean, hang on in there.

Mo, are you still in a lot of pain? Let us know when you find out if it's a DVT or not.

It was gloomy here as well Shelly but it looks like the sun's trying to break through now. Hope it manages to get through those clouds because I'm going out soon.

Shelly, sea trout is a big fish with pink flesh like salmon, we buy it from the quayside. It's different to the farmed trout that you can buy at the supermarkets. We bought a salmon as well but I've put it in the freezer, it's massive.

Where's Linda today?

Rita

Rita Report 8 Sep 2010 11:25

Shelly I will whisper this to you so Marilyn dont get to hear. but that Women is always going out walking along the beach off to some part of Devon or Cornwall of off on holiday .
shall we remove her tyres off her car ? or take the starter out of the car. we end her galivating about.
she is a cheeky monkey not the going about but letting us no so we envy her.

well I hope you wont get too many of those spiders I was told they stay during september I dont know how they know when September starts and when if finishes.then we get the Dragon flies ot daddy longlegs. Lol.

I keep a plastic see through glass near me now so can throw it over the spider till I work out the best way to get it up and out of my flat. it is a bit nerve racking. like Churchill I have to plan my next action.

I have tried three times to type this out and it goes where I do not know.?

First I have had 7 Great spiders so far. so you can keep your Shelly thank you for offering it to me. ? I sppreciate that.
I also have a garden spiders web outside my window he has his meals all lined up lots of little flies. I have left him the window cleaner is due this week so he can demolish the web and get rid od the spider and flies.

Mo I went into The Wembley Cottage hospital in 1966 to have my operation and had to stay in there 10 days but thats a long story.

Jean I hope your feeling a liitle better today. I feel weak after all the blood they took yesterday no wonder they tell me I am lacking iron they wont let me eat the dark greens which I love.

I am sending this now incase it whooses away.

What did you have for dinner Marilyn? I haven't started mine yet, I've got sea trout. Going to have my bath first and then cook the trout, putting it on the oven with a honey and butter glaze.



Edit: Off for my bath now, catch you all later.
