Good morning all :-)
Nice to see a little bit of good news for a change Jonesey - at least she is able to get up now, even if she does still have the brace and has to stay in hospital.
She must be a lot happier and more able to eat and drink etc.
DO give her our love <3
Thanks for the lovely breakfast Sylvs........................ delicious !! <3

LK,
No need to worry, not too many people seem to laugh at my jokes in any case. :-(
Just for the record my daughter is now at another hospital where she is in a rehab ward. She is allowed up but still has to wear her neck brace at all times. The ward mainly houses much older patients who are recovering from back injuries, broken hips ect plus others who are recovering from strokes but because they live alone have to remain in hospital until other arrangements can be made for their care. My wife has been to see her this evening and reports that she remains cheerful.

Such sad news about Julie.
I have just read all of her "Thought long and hard" thread. One thing that really stands out is that despite all her own pain and suffering she always found the time to offer good wishes to other GR members and their family members who were having troubles of their own. A remarkable individual.

OH is now at the airport ....... he ordered a taxi when he saw how wet it was ........ otherwise he would have walked the 15-20 minutes to the subway station to take the train to the airport.
Thank you all for your kind words about sis-i-l.
now we wait for the pathology to be done, and to find out what the next steps will be.

Dea, youre right, you can get into the habbit of staying in.
This morning after breakfast we went onto the sea front and played air hocky......we were in fits of laughter, mainly because JB couldnt stop laughing at me 'screaming' when I got a goal!
It was a draw in the end as we decided, NOT to have a decider!
It's nice to be home though, thank you Dea <3

That sounds really wonderful Ginns - I wish I had been there !!
Must start going 'out and about' again - haven't done that in over 4 years and am now out of the habit :-(
You tend to forget that there is 'fun' out there !
Nice to have you back though.

Sylv, so sorry to hear about your SiL :-( Lets hope they have caught it good and early.
I am back home!
Had a fab time and last night we had a really really fun evening. A group of 'seniors' arrived during the afternoon for their Christmas 'do'. Last night the entertainment was a Christmas quiz
We all joined in and had a real giggle with the old ladies on the next table!
Me and JB came second (by one point) to a mother and daughter that we met at the hotel! Cocktails all round :-D
Met some nice people and had some brilliant laughs in the bar at night. I think Ricky (head bar geezer) must have took a shine to us, he kept passing over free 'taster' drinks
Hope you lot are all OK?

So sorry to hear that Sylvs. Hope it works out well <3
Thank you for the breakfast - I will have porridge today please.
No grandchildren this week so, the world is, my oyster - or probably, in my case, my shrimp!

Oh Sylvia - such awful news about your s-i-l - Let's just hope that they have caught it early enough to be able to deal with it effectively !!!
It is doubly worrying for your OH having to go away at this time. :-( :-( :-(
We will all be thinking of you all and wishing her well ! <3 <3
Thanks for the breakfast - very welcome on this cold and horrible morning!
See you all later,
Dea Xxx
