Thanks Barbara, that’s just how I feel, another step forwards after over 2 years of waiting. Don’t want it but know it’s necessary. Certainly all going ahead now and am grateful I have the best people looking after me so I’m truly grateful for that as I’m scared stiff and I’m now thinking about it every night. I’m also considering suing the manufacturers of the mesh, as many people have done in America and lots of campaigns going on in the UK, though the whole sorry situation gets virtually no public attention but that will have to be at a later date. Thanks for your nice words x

I thought the BBC Journalist Victoria Derbyshire had been for the last few years! I know I have seen her discussing it many times.

Yes to be fair she has and there has been a Parliamentary Review this year so these are good steps forward. I guess I’m just a bit OTT about it x

I was not meaning to be critical as I have seen a number of the shows, as thought as she is usally on mid morning you may not have been aware. I saw another channel mention it as if they were the first to bring the topic and I ended up shouting at the telly, as I had seen Victoria Derbyshire do a number of features on it by that time. I believe her show has now been cancelled despite it attracting lots of viewers.
 
It’s fine I didn’t think for a minute you were being critical and she has highlighted this and other hidden important issues. 🙂 Shame her show is no more

Oooh, what is Cholent

It’s a really slow cooked stew. Usually covered for 12 hours minimum. Traditionally eaten for Shabbat lunch and because it’s slow cooked for ages it gets around the prohibition in cooking on Shabbat itself.
It’s heavy and really not one of my fav dishes. Honestly I’d rather have nothing than have cholent.
 
6.0 for me today.
No roast yesterday as I forgot I had cold chicken in the fridge already, so warmed that up in a sort of stir fry concoction and will save the roast and latkes for tonight I think.
 
Good morning everyone. 6.8 for me at breakfast, 4.2 when i woke so had a JB before shower.
Its Friday!! Only one more week before we break up. I'm exhausted
 
Morning all, 5.9 here. Off to meet a friend for a drizzly walk at a National Trust property followed by a take away coffee on a soggy bench in the picnic area. We need to swap Christmas presents, but neither of us want to risk a coffee shop in case we were to get contact traced and have to isolate in the run up to Christmas.
 
Morning all and 6.4 for me.

Got to ring the hospital today to make an appointment to have a good old fashioned blood letting session as my platelet count has come back as a bit on the high side. Nevermind I'm only a 10 minute walk from the hospital and it'll be an hour away from the home office.

Have a good day everyone.
 
5.6 for me this morning. 🙂

Fair enough @SueEK. It’s barbaric. I’m glad to hear things went well yesterday.

Morning all. 🙂 6.4 here.

Cymraeg class has been moved to this morning cos there’s a Zoom parti Nadolig (Xmas do) for learners at 1.30pm and my teacher has to be there. They’re expecting 5 pages of Zoomers - I think I’ll give it a miss!o_O
 
Morning folks, a whopping 7.9 today. My own fault, ate a large packet of chipsticks and some nuts for tea last night as was fed up and didn’t want to eat a ‘proper meal’. Back on track today. Going to Glowild at Wakehurst tonight, hope the weather improves.
@freesia well done for all your hard work in your school, such a tough time for you all. I hope you have a better final week and then can look forward to a lovely break x
Have a good day everyone xx
 
Morning all. I must be getting better, back in the sixes. 6.4. Had my roast chicken dinner, toddler sized portions. I managed the meat ok, just small pieces chewed a zillion times. Hmmm.... it was ok.
Providing informal and unpaid childcare today. It’s just occurred to us this is the penultimate time, as she starts pre-school on 4th January. She only turns 3 on 30th of this month. We’ll miss our Friday pal. There’s always the school holidays.
Have a fab Friday. 🙂
