Good morning to all those who are awake - not many judging by the attendance in the LCOZ for breakfast :p:
It's a cold but dry morning in North Yorkshire - still dark, so I don't know whether the sun is going to put in an appearance. I hope Trikey has brought us some nice warm sunshine back from foreign parts - I keep putting my heating on for a couple of hours, and my wallet will eventually suffer from the consequences :o
Right - I'm off to do the school run - in the car ;)

Good morning all, how is everyone? It was 23C last night until around midnight, then cooler and rain, this morning it is humid with a pause in the rains, not that I am complaining. I think 24-25C is expected this afternoon.

Morning all.

We have rain after the fabulous sunshine so far this week.

Morning all.
Well, after seeing Ivy yesterday she was a lot better.
Ros spoke with one of the Doctors there and they have said that she may be well enough to go back to the nursing home this week.
What they have said is that she won’t be going back as palliative care but to understand that the care plan in place for Ivy is such that it is geared towards what time she may have left.
All sounds a bit strange but the gist of it is that should Ivy get another infection it is likely she won’t be able to fight it off so it will then be just to make sure she is comfortable and not in pain.
I guess at 98 years young we shouldn’t expect a full recovery but at least she can be discharged from hospital and get back to some normality for her.

Much the same here Bob and looking like more of the wet stuff to come:eek:

Morning all, cool grey & misty here.

That is good to hear, and at 98 she is doing well to be able to fight any infection.

Sadly I can’t produce good news myself, my aunt passed away at 1:20 this morning. I knew the end was near, as I visited yesterday lunchtime with mum, and again with Fions last night. The marked deterioration in only 6 hours was very evident.
I had wanted to be with her for her final hours, as did her best friend, but I was called at 1:25 by the hospital to say she had just passed away very quickly .
I have a mountain of things to do today, first thing is to see to my mum, who is her sister, then get a key for the house and retrieve the will, and find out exactly what her wishes are.
Going to work tomorrow though as I have a job that needs finishing off.

So sorry to hear that Rich, least it was quick in the end.

So sorry to hear that Richard - sincere condolences from Angela and I

Sorry to hear the sad news about your aunt Rich, Sincere condolences to you & your family.
