Good Morning Tuesday

[jenniren]

Morning all

Very wet here, but a little bit warmer going by the thermostat.

We love the cinema and go regularly, but usually only on a Tues or Wed because it cheaper then. I also signed up to the Meercat thing which means one of us goes free. It meant buying an insurance through them, but the trick is to buy a one day travel insurance for less than £5 and it gives access to the BOGOF cinema thing for a whole year, you save that in the first trip so a definite bargain. Today we're off to see The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2. The trailer looks fabulous so fingers crossed this last film in the series lives up to the rest.

Hope you all have a good day

Good afternoon all.

It's dull but dry here. Been two good walks this morning, as I recently read that plenty
of walking reduces your chances of picking up infections. Worth a try, anyway.

Have a nice day, and .... keep walking.

Oh Kaz I thought it was still 60!!! No matter as I am not much of a public transport kind of person....would be nice though...Osc I would deffo be off like a shot, I qualify too Love that you get tea and bikkies too

Work for me, alone - again Grrrrr!!! Had a bad nights sleep, tummy pain and couldn't sleep....Tom's gone to Nottingham (about now!) to a dog track, he'll not be back till late and Jen's working this evening so I have a lovely night of peace and quiet all on me ownio A hot bath and a phone chat with my big sis is on the cards, I think

Grey and mizzly here, but slightly milder than the weekend! My car is good to go again, it was the keys' message to the immobiliser, apparently, (??) so £127 later I can at least start it again!!

Got a message off Donna earlier asking if I can have Lily on Thursday, 11-3. It was lovely to be asked but a) she hasn't given me a lot of notice and b) I don't hear from her unless she wants me to watch the kiddies Grrrr..

Have a great Tuesday everyone

My understanding Gal, is that it kicks in when you get to state pension age, which will be 66 for me now I would love to be wrong however!

Jen what a great 'wheeze' that is, to access the Meerkat cinema offer! I might well do that myself - I was gutted when Orange Wednesday was no more, as I often took advantage of it with either B or H!

Oh gosh Di, I hope Bb's knee is ok! As you say, he's much too young to be falling to bits! xxxx

Well Aggers, I should definitely be germ free then as I've walked my socks off! Up to Sainsbury's to pick up some cough stuff for D, then up to see her - I took soup and rolls for our lunch - and then home again just now. Must be a good three miles or even more all told

[Osc]

Well that was a great success! My sister came along, and for €3 each we got the film, plus tea or coffee and two bikkies! Think we will be doing that regularly, and the film was really enjoyable too

[Diflower]

That is a good deal Osc

Well, the Dr is concerned there may be some kind of infection; by the time we got there his knee was red and swollen, so we're to go to the hospital tomorrow for blood test and x-ray.
It's now had an icepack on it, and he's taking up to the limit of painkillers.
So much for me being pleased at having no hospital appointments for a while!

[Kaz]

Oh gosh Di, poor old Bb xxxx

Glad you enjoyed yourselves Osc, and that is a really good deal with the tea and bikkies

[tonicha]

Gentle hugs on their way Di xx

How on earth did he get an infection in his knee?

[Diflower]

He probably doesn't Ton.
There's no injury, but infection can come out as a symptom anywhere in your body, as I understand it.
There's nothing obvious causing the problem but it's really quite bad so they're doing a good job investigating.

[Weka]

Oh no, I hope it comes right quickly.

Had a power cut this morning. I loved the neighbours reaction when I drive up and opened the electric garage door. We run solar (supplemented from the street)

It's about to thunder so I'd better get outside quick and clean the chicken cage.
