There’s a nice one in Kensington that we’ve been to but that’s not a lot of good for you 🥴 7 weeks until we go to the Isle of Wight & it’s so strange knowing we’ll have to plan our days and book day trips before going. It is lovely. There is an outdoor area and the conservatory and an indoor bit. We normally go in the conservatory as it’s the best of both worlds. Last year we sat there and the door was wide open so lots of fresh air coming in. Here’s a photo of the view, imagine it when the sky is blue! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your Mum's ok Sue, didn't she recently have her covid jab? We go for our 2nd one in a couple of hours, so hopefully things will begin to feel a bit brighter then. I think all I really need though is an almighty kick up the backside.😏 Have a nice relaxing weekend Sue. Avril It was quite a while ago now, definitely over the two weeks. I see JVT says there’s minimum risk of people who’ve had both jabs more than 2 weeks ago meeting indoors. Next time I see her she’s definitely getting a hug! Hope all goes well with your jabs.

Rare P&O SUE Posted May 1, 2021 #19779 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Thanks everyone for your kind words. I’ve phoned my mum this morning and she’s fine. She said they had her on a bed the whole time and wheeled her from room to room! She said she felt a fraud!! Aren’t that generation amazing? 💕 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enough about me ,I hope you are enjoying your well deserved break this week from jabbing you take care I did chuckle when I saw your post in the other thread.

Ardennais Posted May 1, 2021 #19783 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) My parents have had a lot of health issues in the last 3-4 years including a stint for my father in intensive care where it was very much will he make it to the morning. I seem to be ferrying them to appointments on a regular basis but I can cope quite well. But when anything happens to one of the children (all in their 20s and living at home), I find it much harder to keep calm and panic sets in. I had to take my youngest to A&E with excruciating abdominal pains about 3 weeks ago and it seemed like the longest 45 minute drive of my life. She was kept in overnight and to be honest, the hospital was very critical of our GP practice for not initiating proper investigations after she had an appointment with them a few months ago. You just want to take their pain for them. My mother has always said that you put your children first and she’s still adamant on that now. But in middle age I suppose many of us are pulled in two directions and at least we all live in the same area which does make things easier.

Rare DamianG Posted May 1, 2021 #19784 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Belated Happy Birthday Avril 🎂 Glad to hear your mum is okay Sue. I've not posted for a while but I have been catching up every now and then and it's great to hear that 2nd vaccinations are either done or scheduled. My wife (in her 40's) has already had her 2nd jab whereas I (6 years older) have another 5 weeks to wait. I really should have switched to the same surgery as her years ago. Best wishes to all.

It is much better to open up rather than bottle things up and for almost everything it certainly makes a whole lot of difference. I'm sure we all feel the same that a problem shared is a problem halved and I'm sure we are all happy to help each other. Take care and start dreaming about your future cruising. Take care.

Thanks Graham, I'm putting in some long hours but feel secure and am still grateful for the opportunity. We have a great manager who regularly tells us all to log off early - only (say) 4:30pm or 5pm instead of 6pm but it all helps. The last few weeks I've been able to have the cricket on via YouTube in the background while working (to watch Yorkshire in the County Championship) which I've thoroughly enjoyed.

Bit alarming about your gaden recce but when the body says no you have to listen, which you did. Very frustrating though. It would be really brilliant if you and Mrs K. could meet up with Graham and Pauline at some point. There would be many tales to tell I'll bet. You look after yourself Kalos and thanks for being a total sweetheart. Jane.x 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
