Oneputt, I'll have a chat with my brother. He was advised to have this a few years ago but I'm not sure what treatment he opted for. I do know he had some skin transplanted from his shoulder area and his condition seems to have settled down now.

I have been known to buy some tops for Mrs WN. It's just a vicious rumour that most of them end up in the charity bags.
Many years ago my father used to buy all, and I mean all, of my mothers clothes as at one stage she was too ill to go out to do it herself.

Just caught up with the news.
Oneputt : sorry you've had to cancel your trip, but hope all goes well with the op.
Millie: glad you arrived in NI eventually
Enjoy your time with the family.OH has been occupying his time with DIY jobs while I've been at work, he has tidyed up so all good.
Hope those away have a fab weekend hopefully with some sunshine.🌞🌞

Just had a catch up hope I remember everything!
Oneputt well done on winning iPad, hope you're enjoying it, shame it came with some rotten news 😔, hopefully the treatment will sort it - not something I'd come across before so will read up.
MrRoute sounds painful swift recovery.
Cariadon delighted to hear your OH home from hospital hopefully peaceful nights, tlc and some sun will speed up the recovery.
Goldie keep up the good, if hard, work it will all be well worth it and the memories will be wonderful. On the dust question I often ask the same thing.
Wherenext thanks for link I do have the MSE email, a very swift go on uswitch bought Bulb to number one, a bit more research to do then discussion with OH who not keen to change because if horror stories he's heard.
Milliehull you must have looked a bit 'iffy' 😉. Not a very nice experience at all. Hopefully time with the family will make up for it.
Tammygirl good shopping, so many shops but not always choice and limited time for stock, 6 weeks they reckon, so hitting at the right time is crucial. My OH will do clothes shopping but takes some convincing that it is needed - much harder with shoes 😤
Glad some folks are reporting the sun hasn't been totally lost. Still grey with very chilly breeze but dry 😃.
Sorted out last of finance stuff until fixed terms expire in June. Bought few bits of fresh veg whilst in town. Checked out the new Aldi lovely store but not overly well stocked, no cheddar cheese unless mild or vintage mature, no milk, no non diet lemonade plus others. Would probably try again as I'm not an Aldi shopper it was also all new to me.
Not seen Arbuthnott but all hedgehog food eaten and large calling cards left behind, 2 differnt colours 😲 so hopefully our wild one about too.

Don't try that with Gin in a glass, Goldie 'cos you might get Bubbles in it !!
Preferably 1) drink from the bottle -- much less chance of spills, certainly to start with
2) bubbles should only be drunk from the proper Flutes ( and I don't mean musical thingies ) when relaxing and eating the approved 'finger fodder' doubtless made by your good self
Nothing , of course, against sitting back & commenting on the quality of cleanliness of the crockery

A slightly better day weather wise ,fog lifted in afternoon,in East Kent.Assisted another 'boater' to set up his rigging etc.Then had a call from my friendly heating engineer to say the new 'spare part' for the boiler in to be fitted today.So a quick dash home around mid-day.0

If he can't find what he wants in the first shop that's it he's had enough. When he does buy things on his own they are always the same colour as he has at home (usually navy) but he never thinks to try and match bottoms to tops so hence my intervention
Wimmin!! They do not understand coordination. They think that blue,yellow, green. pink, red don't 'go'

I'm on a mission this morning. Front garden already weeded and tidied up from winter. Just having a cuppa before making a start on the back garden. We garden on clay soil, so it's a joy to dig at the moment. If I leave it any longer it will be impossible to dig as it will be rock solid. Wishing you all a nice weekend whatever you're doing.

Off with OH for an hour of basic life support training at the local health centre this morning. Did it all years ago when I did first aider training at work. However, worth having a refresher, particularly the CPR.
Still dull here, although 8C. Supposed to brighten up and 16C later. So good for a walk.

Well done Add46, hope you get the back sorted too, our garden is still waterlogged 😲.and looking a bit of a mess.😢

Skies are brighter today and they promise sunshine later, I hope so I've forgotten what it looks like.
OH gone out already, he is paying a visit to a local wood turning club (thanks Kj) with a view of having a go at it.
Once I get my self off the couch I will be putting clothes in the washing machine and then going into the garden where possible and doing something constructive
I've a bit of potting up to do and still a couple of bushes that need to be cut back. I only ever take the Buddleia half way down over winter then do the rest once it start budding. Also need to make a start on getting the van ready for going away, looks like we might get a few nice days next week, so a trip out to test OH's gear changing arm would be good. Would also like to get out on the bikes at some stage.
Have a nice visit with your Mum brue, we haven't taken Mum out since she went into the new home, its getting very hard to do so.
H&T have a nice meal with the family tonight.
Anyone out and about hope you have a nice weekend.

A very good course. Apart from getting to practice CPR (forgot what hard physical work that is) they demonstrated one of the defibrillators, like they have on CC campsites and in cabinets / old phone boxes around the place. So now at least I would know what to expect if we ever had to use one.

Having spent all day yesterday perched on the top off a ladder stretching across the MH roof with a pot of MER, I'm having a lazy day today to give my aching muscles a chance to recover.

H&T I'm already regretting my enthusiasm this morning. Both front and back gardens weeded. The wheelie bin is full and three bin bags. I've decided I've done enough (legs and back aching) so I'm going to have a bath. Tomorrow will be a very lazy day!
Enjoy your Italian tonight.

I am making ice cream! Orange Marmalade flavour, and going to add a few crushed almonds! Excited.......good to get in touch with the inner child every once in a while. Hope it works out ok, got guests coming to tea, and one of them has done a professional ice cream making course, so it will be like Masterchef Final here this evening!

When we got up this morning the sun was shining and it was quite warm outside. I took the opportunity to go a cycle along the coast lovely route I managed 12 miles. There is a chip van due to visit the site tonight so think we will try something from there for dinner tonight.

Visited BIL who is making progress, brought a tread mill so he could continue his exercise programme during bad weather. Went for a walk along the beach, got home mowed the lawns and come in for a cuppa just as the sun came through.
We have a plan now for next week, I'll take the van to Sussex for it's annual service then go to sons. Mrs One got a couple of appointments then she will get a train down to sons. This is the last time I will take van to down there as warranty will have expired.
