Hello all,

Sorry to hear that Tec is still not well, but please, Linda, give him my kind regards when you next send a message.

To all in NSW, today is the day that the RFS has been worrying about. I just pray that the Bureau of Meteorology have done one of its usual stuff-ups and got the predictions all wrong. Please stay safe

On a very minor home front point OH received a phone call last week form S*msung. Our microwave is to be replaced with a new one. Although we no longer use the microwave for main meal cooking, it's amazing how much we did use it. We never realised until we've had to go without :-0

Hello everyone - and thank you for the kind thoughts for the people battling in bushfire areas. No smoke this morning but that depends on wind direction.

Poor Tec must be missing home and the Duchess. Sorry to hear that he is still in so much pain :-( A group hug sounds good <3

Another text from Tec, he is getting the hang of this lol

The Duchess is coping quite well at her daughters, his daughter came to see him on her own today.
He has a nice room with a fantastic view across Shrops, to the Welsh hills beyond, that beckon me home.

Aww, I think we all need to go and give him a group hug

Extracts from texts from Tec

I am still unable to walk, and they've increased the morphine. Please post this on the palace gates when you get there.

Thank you for the funny card and please thank all the lovely people for their kind messages

Hi Sue and everyone :-)

Thinking of all our Australian Friends who are facing such a terrible situation in Australia right now <3

Just a quick post today as I will need to go back to bed for a bit soon- bad night's sleep. Another miserable day here weather wise. Not the torrential, driving rain like yesterday but heavy drizzle, dark clouds and wind, though not as strong as yesterday either.

Granddaughter 2 came after school last night. She told me that she had a "concern" (a black mark so to speak ,which when they accumulate, end up in detention) for forgetting her homework.
In fact she hadn't forgotten it, she just couldn't understand it! I told her she must tell the teacher, that they prefer that than pretending.
It was a history project on the Black Death that I did with Grandson 1 when he was in year 7. So we sorted it. She now understands the subject completely, and has been able to give detailed answers to hand in.

:-)Sending more get well thoughts to our Tec and the Duchess. Hope they will both be home in Fairthingy again soon <3
Thanks to Linda for keeping us all up to date.

Well how are you all today? Hope you are all well, if not coping!

:-) Sue-Hope you and your family are well. Are you all prepared for your holiday? If you are brave enough, Mersey could fly you there in her Pink Superjet!:-D

:-)Linda- Hope that you are feeling better today, and that you are pleased with your new carpets

:-)Berona- phew phew (nearest I could get to a wolf-whistle!) :-D Your hair looks lovely!

:-)Good Afternoon Mersey- lot's of Welsh Mwcoochis to you :-D Hope your sniffles are leaving you now!

:-)Diane- Glad you are sorted!

:-)Amanda-Hope things are ok with you. All the best in facing the dreaded Atos! :-|

Hi~Sylvia, Huia, Persie, Carole, Allan, and anyone (sorry) that I forgot to mention.
Love Jem <3

Ps That turned out to be a not so quick post! :-D
