Evening all    

 

Hope all are well, and particularly Moons. Good to see that your dad has been discharged Yogi - at least he'll be more comfortable in his own surroundings and with his family around him. He'll need to take it easy though and I can imagine you've had your hands full    

 

Sweet, didn't realize you had knocked your back out so it goes without saying I hope all goes well on Friday       I did laugh at the personal best bit though!

 

squiggs, Ros and El, hope you're managing to stay cool down there - what a summer you are having. And El, hope you're managing to stay busy   

 

No tennis, no football, soon no politics for 6/7 weeks...tv really is weak just now.

 

Enjoy your evening everyone

Evening Tuco  We’ve had an eventful afternoon, trying to put things in place to cover all the things Dad normally does around the house, and make sure he is actually able to do all the things he says he can do for himself.

Yogi, that's good that your dad's considered stable enough to go home

 

As you say, I hope Moonie isn't unwell

Thanks El. TBH, I think they would have had to tie him to the bed to keep him in there.

Evening gang oh yay welcome home papa yogi!!!!! he’ll heal better in his own home  

 

yes my back is out of alignment, I’m not in any pain but I’m uncomfortable. I feel crooked & unbalanced, but it’s my own stupid fault so I can’t complain lol 

Thanks Summer

 

Will you tell the chiropractor how you did it?

 

Did you have a relaxing day off?

Good morning everyone

 

Cloudy but bright here, still warm.

 

Tuco, there's the golf Open at Carnoustie which has started today, European Athletics Championships in the second week of August, and various tennis tournaments in the States in August leading up the the US Open.

 

Yogi, you may have to strap your dad down to stop him overdoing things too soon

 

Summer, I think you should tell the chiropractor about the pogo stick incident so that they can see how the fall affected your spine

 

I hope everyone has a good day

Good morning everyone 

Another sunny morning.

El, you are right, my dad is very determined and stubborn so we need to make sure he does as he was told. If he doesn’t take it easy, his recovery will take longer, and we will keep reminding him of that.

Ros, it has been a fantastic summer but, I admit to being fed up of watering the hanging baskets and planters. Living in Scotland, I’m not used to having to water plants.

Have a good day, everyone

Good morning everyone, a beautiful morning with a breeze that's slightly chilly (total bliss ).  My dad was the same as your's Yogi and, as long as he's sensible, it's the best attitude to have when recovering from something like this.  My dad had a hip operation in his 70's and was soon striding up and down the hospital corridors fully determined the recover his mobility.

 

This is probably the most beautiful thing I've come across this year

I have to have professional indemnity insurance and there's been a broker who has been emailing me to see if I was interested in getting a quote from them. I wasn't and have recently renewed the policy for the coming year.

The broker rang me the other day so I told him that I had already renewed the policy with the exisiting insurers.

 

Got an email this morning from the broker with a quote for the next year. I'm not impressed and replied accordingly.

(in any case their quote was higher than what I'm paying )

 

That's from a year ago. The same broker sent me a letter a few days ago for this next year's insurance and sent me an email just now. I've sent a strong email back telling them that any further communications will be ignored and to remove me from their database,

Same broker but a different person from a different office has just rung me about professional indemnity insurance. I told her about the above and told her to remove me from their database. She said there was no record of me having told them to stop contacting me, not that it surprises me that the previous man had ignored my instruction. She would do that and check that there were no duplcate record for me. (Brokers name is one that is easily remembered)

Good afternoon 

 A rundown of my week so far...

 

Monday...too iPad to Apple shop...full diagnostic...all a’ok...

Went home because it had to have been the internet...Rang Virgin Media...appointment for Wednesday...they arrived...new router fitted...everything seems to be fine, touch wood “taps head” 

 

Still roasting here. I am off to sit in a dark cold room until I cool down a little 

 

Hope you are all okay

Squiggle, that has to be one of the sweetest stories I’ve ever heard. What a little gem he is.

Afternoon all 

It’s raining up here but the ground and plants need it so, I don’t mind as long as it doesn’t hang around for too long 

Summer, I hope the chiropractor fixes your pogo stick injury 

We have been over at my parents, sorting out some paperwork for them and doing housework and making lunch. Youngest son is calling in tonight with grocery shopping and will check on them 

Have a good day, everyone.
