Lay My Hat

Aw, this is just so nice! Evenin' one and all! Have a virtual, collective hug. Miss the forum and hope life is treating you well and continues to do so. Sigh ....

Hi LV - great to hear from you too. I came all over nostalgic, and wish we still had a holiday home: as much for sharing them with clients as going there and enjoying getting away from it all ourselves, as, of course, for having a bona fide reason for being here! Hope all is well, and that your seas...

The Creeps!! I didn't realise they'd stooped as low as that! Someone got a raise no doubt when s/he came up with the idea. Wish we could frog-march them out of existence!

Great to see you Kathy.

Hullo team - and hullo Paolo; it was lovely to check in on the Mac this morning and see your post. A cyberhug is coming your way!

We will be in Marrakech, Essaouira and Ouarzazate. Many t...

Mr G's mum has (vascular) dementia, and his dad was really struggling for all it was worth to keep her at home ; even with lots of support (moral and physical) he became ill and the end result was that they are both in a nursing home now. All progressive illnesses are tough on those who look after t...

Aw, I feel better now, and good ole MailChimp!

I was excited until I came to that bit Dave - typical, wot?!

I'm glad there was a simple explanation Goosie, and wish you every happiness in your new home/area! Hope you are fully settled soon.

So who won that particular argument? You, I trust!!

What sound advice Normandie - but how painful the decision must have been for you. It's lucky that your mother has adequate mobility for the time being, and long may it last.

If they come back to us, we then tie them to a chair, shine a very bright Dunelm mill lamp in their face and drip feed them malt whiskey till they surrender, it usually works with pesky first timers.......... :lol: First time guests only have the info they have found on ours or other websites to go...
