Chit Chat Thread (Part 2)

Fritz, when I first moved here 6 years ago a lone man lived in that house but spent a lot of time with his partner. Then he decided to sell up and move into the family home after his father died. Bought by a property firm who rented out to this rum lot. When I complained ai was told ‘ she was the better applicant’. Seriously??? She must have behaved how they wanted her to.

As for the other side, they had one boy at the time, and she was expecting the second. A third has now joined them. He’s still fairly young, but what I hear coming from the boys and the father (never mum) can be too much. This morning the oldest one was having a screaming fit before 7am.

No problems like that here at the moment. In fact there is probably more noise at the library - Shush!

Sabrina?

Yes!! Thank you. :+1::+1::clap:

This morning I got woke up by what sounded like a domestic abuse situation and her sister and friend were fighting. Then she came home with the kid and things quieted down. I’m running out of patience.

Anyway, I was supposed to go to physical therapy today but had to reschedule. Won’t go until next Thursday now.

Morning all.

NfH put out their recycling bin, in front of my house as per usual, two days early, so I am forced to look at it through my windows. Collection not till tomorrow. As for their constant door slamming and the increasing amount of cigarette butts, it is getting too much.

I keep checking caravan rentals on sites nearby (Holly not a good car traveller) but so far there are no dog friendly ones for the time I am free. Might try end of this month when I have nothing planned.

Morning all.

New mattress received yesterday, nice and comfortable. Told I have 100 days (the norm, I believe) to find out if it’s suitable.

The arm of my glasses got itself lost yesterday while shopping, so I’m using an old pair with scratched lens. Have an emergency appt at opticians early this morning. Can’t wear those given last year as too strong or too weak, but everything is blurry. I will ask them to use this prescription.

Morning Jazzi. Hope the new mattress works out. I think it’s gross that they can take that back after 3 months and what? Resell it? Eww. I don’t even like hotel beds since everyone and their brother has been on those.

My last pair of glasses got messed up so I am wearing my old ones for now. When I am able I will go in for a new pair. They marked the bifocals wrong so they were too high.

I hope everyone has a nice day planned. I have been out 2 weeks so far with this back issue. I hope I can return to work soon. I hate sitting here.
We’re to get thunderstorms today so I will have to wait til later tonight to play my video games unless I get a chance to before the weather sets in. Other than that just chillin.

Morning all.

Still adjusting to new mattress, but then I never sleep very well anyway.

Was given a new eye test, so a new pair of reading glasses. They discovered last year’s set were too strong, but too late for optician to replace them. Slight change in prescription, no treatment yet on slowly developing cataracts, eye scans ok, so all good. Ready next Saturday.

Morning all.

The dog trust volunteer has taken Holly out on the school run. Shopping for me this morning then maybe cafe later. Depends if anyone going.

Morning all.

Susie is getting better, and hopes to be discharged tomorrow evening, but will not be completely better. She no doubt still has a way to go. Heard on another forum that my visit cheered her up. (She speaks to a member). Glad to hear that.

Good news about Susie, and a visit is always welcome.

Morning Eliza. Yes, she’d exchanged texts with a fellow forum member elsewhere and had been pleased to see me.

Good morning/afternoon all. Thought I’d better check in to see if everyone on here is ok?
Hope Susie is home and feeling a lot better.
Also hope Jazzie is ok. I agree with Sabrina being the lady we met up with a few years ago.

I’ve not been 100% myself recently. I have been diagnosed with Gallstones! Hospitals, operations and anything medical I have a fear of :slightly_frowning_face: so I said I’d see how I can manage with a low fat diet. That’s easy at the moment as I am not fancying food much.
Has anyone had any experience with such things and how they managed them?

Hi CC.
I’m still here. Susie has been back in hospital a few days now but nobody seems to know what’s going on there, and she hasn’t answered my texts.

Sorry to hear you have been poorly, I so remember having gallstones and opted for surgery because I remember the pain!

I am just trying to combat this heatwave, and waiting for it to cool down.

Booked a four night caravan stay from Monday. Only local still, but a different site. I have invited the ladies from the Tuesday cafe meet to come to the caravan for our usual get together. Should make a nice change!

Hi Jazzi … I wondered where you’d got to.
