That's good news then. OH had the full op 20 years ago & is back in to have 2 hernias repaired due to the surgeons lazy way of doing the op ::).

:(

I just found out that i passed all four units of the RHS level 3 plant growth health and applied propagation. Yipee!

Treated myself to a new trugg from Aldi!

Well done Sun loving. A very apt treat too ;D.

Brilliant news, sunloving and SamLouise  ;D
We got 100 feet of chicken wire, bloke was using it to keep rabbits out of his field, he's stopped growing veg and we can have as much as we like, he has 2 big sheds full, complete with the canes. The wood is huge pallets we had delivered yesterday, bloke usually burns them  :o
We have 5 blueberries and a cranberry in one side bed and double cherry, double plum, green and red gooseberry and an Issia kiwi in the other side bed  :)

Wow all of that stuff Manics
Well done sunlovin

        Congratulations Sunloving.

Tax rebate   ;D

I need say no more...

Goodluck today Gwynnethmary, hope you are up on your feet in no time.

Good to hear. Hope you heal nice and quickly. I had the same surgery many years ago and came out the following morning. You'll soon be on the mend.

Congrats, Sunloving :)

Good news indeed. Take it easy though!

Had mine out 46 yeras ago when it was 2week stint in hospital. Amazing how far we have come.

Pleased to hear you are home and on the road to recovery.

Take it easy and don't rush at anything - a few extra weeks to get back to normal is time well spent rather than rushing it and ultimately taking longer.

The plot will wait.... but it might be worth dropping a line to the allotments to let them know if you haven't done this already  ;)

I have been invited to attend the Diamond Jubilee thanksgiving Service in Glasgow Cathedral this July with the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh attending.  Not sure if I will need a hat or not, will have to wait and see what the invitation says.    I will wear the same gear I wore when I met Prince charles last May except not the same shoes because the 3 inch heels put my back out.  I had to attend the chiropractor 2 weeks later to sort my squiffy pelvis.

;D ;D

Ooo, how exciting for you! How did this come about then? I think you should treat yourself to a new outfit and a big feathery hat (any excuse...!)

I say Carol!!! Diamond Jubilee thanksgiving Service in Glasgow Cathedral.... now that is something to be pleased about.  :)

Going through worrying time at the moment my sister is ill in hospital (90 in August) BUT I had wonderful news this week, I am an absolute fanatic over snooker. (used to play in a team years ago) My Grandson has got tickets and he is taking me to the 7pm session of the final on Sunday. Sheffield here I come. A dream come true!!!
Then Tuesday off to Kent for few days so that I can visit sister.

Enjoy the snooker! Here's hoping you find your sister in good spirits.  :)

Oh very posh.. ;) I think you do need..or should wear hat as the Queen will be there.
I attended 2 years ago Southwell Minster that held Queens birthday service..we were invited then by Sheriff of Nottingham. As the the Queen didn't attend to that it wasn't requirement for the hat..although you could..only 'dress code' for that was appropriate 'Sunday best'...in other words..local 'laadidaa' was there and you should try to look part and for press too.. ::)
It was nice that 'normal' people was invited too and the atmosphere is quite special...

Do enjoy yourself.. ;D
