Graham & Pauline - get well soon. Current virus variations apparently often don’t produce +ve test results till days 4 or 5 We have sunshine! And a beer festival! Sounds like summer may be here at last 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted May 25 #58877 Share Posted May 25 It has been a beautiful sunny day here. I have been bowling this afternoon. We were playing at home which was also home for the away team because we played our B team, they have told us that when they are the home team they will have the home advantage so will beat us 🤣🤣 I really enjoy playing our other team because everyone knows everyone else so there is a lot of good humoured banter. Some of us play in other leagues with some of the other team's members. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have spoken to her earlier this evening, she was still waiting for the neurologist to tell her what he thinks would be the best way to procede after he had looked at the scan results. David and I are going to visit her tomorrow afternoon. I already know from a text this afternoon that she won't be able to drive for a while so I will be in the school run am and pm indefinitely. My 2 younger sisters have said that they will help out when they can but one looks after her 20 months old granddaughter while her daughter is at work as a teacher and our baby sister is 59 so is still working. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josy1953 Posted May 26 #58881 Share Posted May 26 Another damp grey morning here. We have nothing planned but I wanted to get out to do a bit of work in the garden but that doesn't look likely now unless it clears up later. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Planning of having family BBQ tomorrow so have some cakes to bake and food to marinade, but other than that nothing planned. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Hill Posted May 26 #58886 Share Posted May 26 A a damp and overcast start to the day, on a yellow warning for thunderstorms this afternoon, so not planning to go anywhere today. I have some work to do in the greenhouse to prepare tomatoes for planting in the final locations, but not sure if I want to be in a metal framed greenhouse during a thunderstorm. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare P&O SUE Posted May 26 #58890 Share Posted May 26 Morning all, sorry I haven’t had time to catch up on all the news. My mum is still in hospital so life is work and hospital visits at the moment. My sister is popping up for a brief visit today so we get a day off from visiting. We’re busy sorting stuff out at home today. I should be getting excited for our cruise but can’t get excited yet. Really hope she’s out soon and safe in her Home being well looked after. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something similar happened to me. I was going on a cruise in the Fjords and someone from work was on the same cruise. We had got on the same train at Penzance and changed trains at Exeter. She was sitting in our reserved seats, so Mum asked her to move. She walked behind me, not seeing me. We saw her walking around in Southampton. It wasn't until we got in a lift (half way through the week) that she was in that she saw me, and I was greeted with "Oh, Tesco Penzance". That is the only time she saw me, but I saw her at a couple at other ports. Coming home, we were already on the train when she got on and she walked straight past us and again when we got off at Penzance. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josy1953 Posted May 26 #58897 Share Posted May 26 We went to visit my sister this morning and she was hopeful that she might come home today so we stayed until they started to deliver the patients' lunches, hoping that the neurologist would come and say that we could bring her home but he hadn't arrived so we left. She has just texted to tell me that he has been and told her that they want to do another MRI and depending on what they find on that she may come home tomorrow. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope your Mum's out of hospital soon too Sue, but it's good that her doctors are being careful and making sure she's well enough before they discharge her. Just focus on one thing at a time and you'll get there, even your cruise. Take care Sue. x Avril 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
