So she wasn't on top form during my visit but Di went to see her on Saturday after I'd started my travels home and she did remember our visit, so I'm well pleased about that :D

Hope all is well yr end?!

James and I went to visit grandma on Thursday. Walked into her room and all we saw was a little crumpled lady in her bed fast asleep :( I managed to catch a passing care assistant who eventually woke her up by shaking her shoulder and shouting her name full blast at her..... Rene... yr granddaughter is here!!!! Grandma eventually woke up and ushered me over saying that she'd been flung into bed after being dressed and left - yep, she tells some porkies! Mind you she was in a heap and looked terribly uncomfortable so with the help of James we lifted her up, adjusted her postition and stuffed pillows in behind her to keep her more upright. We chatted for about 10 minutes which was lovely then... quick as a flash her head fell and she was spark out again! James and I were avidly watching to make sure she was still breathing tbh!!!! - she had me going for a mo I can tell ya lol!

No pain no gain eh?!?! Sure hope your feeling more mobile now ;) You still off on yr jollys to the caravan?... soz can't keep track of you atm - here, there everywhere lol!... but I'm sure Ian can cope with yr mam ;)

Visit to Di's - short and sweet but well worth the effort :) Tis a chuffin long way by car tho from Yorkshire to Sussex, but James and I stopped in at my brothers en route so that broke up the tidousness and it was great to catch up with him and his crew.

Accupuncture is painful - full stop! My practioner also gives Shiatsu massage afterewards and that is more painful still ..... I have a huge bruise on my bum from it this morning - but I'm not in pain and I won't need three paramol just to walk around today! So its worth every penny and it is a pretty penny! Sorry you're still having vehicle probs tho the work front sounds good. I've posted car insurance off and wondering if it will get thro in time? Same goes for bills. I getting ready to slope off to the caravan for a few days - Ian will look after mam he says - actually I don't think thats going to work but it won't do him any harm to see what I cope with! Hope you enjoy your visit to ralatives even if she doesn't remember you! You never know - she might?!

Ah so you do that dance too eh?! lol! And how do you rate yr acupuncture treatment - has it worked.. did it hurt???... problem solved? - sure hope so :)

Crikey a 28yr old telly!!!!!!.. has 'Auntie' contacted you to exhibit it in their museum??? lol! :D Life!!!!... I missed it yet again!... chuffin eck I really do need to get one eh?! :(

Well as you know Yam's car was found burnt out (as you predicted) in Tadcaster, and the wonderful Direct Line sent the cheque last week during the postal strike... yep... suprise suprise it's not turned up yet! So Yam is still car-less and I'm off to Sussex tomorrow with James to visit fave Auntie Di and my Grandma - sure hope she remembers me!

The show at Stafford last weekend was fruitfull though. Best one we've had yet and we were flat out selling our wares - bloomin knackering, but worth the effort ;)

Two steps forward and three back - how you doin'?! Was very relieved to have my accupuncture treatment this aft - I have been in severe pain in my hips, buttocks and back - which have been reasonably quiet for a while - but this week those areas have revved up and gone 'on tour'!! Bought a new telly for the bedroom on saturday just gone - the old one was 28 years old!! Bet this one won't last that long. Course we're being stupid and watching any old rot cos we now have freeview upstairs - I suppose we will stoppit off after a week or two and the newness wears off - was nice to watch Life on it tonight tho (relatives descended last night at 5 past 9 and left at 5 past 10 ......... the one prog I really wanted and needed to watch and I had to be polite and miss it - there are times when I could scream and scream .......)

Hi P... how ya doin?

Well I'm glad to hear it and yea... I know all about aching bits atm lol. With all this physical work we're doing at the unit I can't wait to slide into a hot bath of a night and loosen my muscles off!!!

Nope, not a dicky bird from the police about Yam's car. Had the offer of the use of a Discovery for the show from our Unit landlords son - that was a lovely gesture eh! May well hafta take him up on it too if nothing else happens in the mean time.

We've been at the unit all day again and are making good progress. PM me your email and I'll send ya some pics later this weekend so you can see what I'm wittering on about lol! Seems like a big game of solitare atm as we have to keep moving stuff about coz it's in the way, then move it again, then again!!! Yam and I have got a fair bit of racking up now though so things are coming together slowly and we've got the joiner here this weekend too, so windows, doors and skirting boards are being fitted to the offices now - yay! x

Yes thanks Cazz much improved finally - I searched high and low till I found the last 2 ibuprofen tablets the doc gave me back in June! Then found out I could buy 400 strength over the counter at Asda - so have got a big box - should last for years as I am basically allergic to it and only take one now and again when I can't stand the pain anymore. So by this aft I was walking straight and feeling good again - well as good as it gets with me these days! No news on the Hi-Lux I suppose?

Slave to WAB! lol :D Tis addictive for sure ;)

Sure hope ya feel better today tho... x
