Good morning everyone

 

Another cloudy and cold day (very slightly warmer than yesterday). There's a bit of light rain around, it's not likely to snow ay my level.

 

The Bramble in the bank was looking up at the man getting cash out of the machine. What's he going to get for me?

 

I hope those with colds are getting better

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Summer, I hope you enjoy your lasagne

 

The only version of A Doll's House I can remember seeing was the 1992 BBC version which had Juilet Stevenson and Trevor Eve in. It's a powerful play as one would expect from Ibsen. I read his An Enemy of the People at school as part of my English Literature O level.  He also wrote the play Peer Gynt. You may not ever have seen the play but you will certainly have heard of part of the music which he asked Grieg to write for the play. The piece is called "In the Hall of the Mountain King" (Alton Towers quite often uses it in their ads).

Someone I know from church does some amateur stage acting. She old me today that she's rehearsing for two plays. Ibsen's A Doll's House and a stage play based on 'Allo 'Allo.

 

I hope she doesn't get the two plays mixed up

 

 

i loved Allo Allo

The concept of the Allo Allo faux gendarme and his mispronunciation mixed with Ibsen's Doctor is fraught with danger and could not be discussed on a family forum such as this one.

 

(and that's just for starters)

Latest from Toots!

 

Hi everyone, thank you very much for all your get well wishes and everything.
Moved from ICU to surgical ward yesterday. I haven't been able to post anything as my eyes have been dilated from the anaesthetic and I've been having trouble reading my phone and typing. It's still a bit off but I think my eyes are a bit better.
A lot of tubes were taken out when I left surgery and then ICU.
I ended up in a lot of pain last night but some Oxycodeine helped me get comfortable. I'm on paracetamol and tramadol at the moment and feeling better this morning. Catheter came out this morning and I'm hoping maybe the drain may be removed this evening.

Thanks again for all the good wishes and sorry it's taken me so long to post a update xx

Squiggle, thanks for that. I've discovered that there's a problem with watching anything on Channel 5 catchup (My6) if you are using the current version of Firefox (51.0.1). Channel 5 are aware of that and advise people to use any other browser for the time being. So I am able to watch things on another browser without having to register with them.

Evening all apologies for my tardiness today! 

Its been another grey, wet & cold day here but I'm pleased to hear that some of you have been blessed with better weather  

 

i looked up Saint Valentine, there's no much to be said about him really, and what is said is disputed anyway... so I'm none the wiser for my curiosity  

 

hope Toots continues to rest and recover  

 

sweet dreams all
