Good to hear everything went smoothly Joan and also that the rift you mention did not spoil the day. So glad all of your family came together to support you and were able to be there on the day.

So glad we can be here for you and anyone else that needs a friend at anytime.

Take care now

I'm so glad it all went well, Joan - never an easy occasion, but good organisation makes such a difference.

Take good care of yourself now, in the next phase.

Morning all
We have had snow here for 2 days and although the roads are clear today, the garden and surrounding fields are still full of it.

A biting NE wind has scuppered the ferries once again but so glad I got my Tesco delivery yesterday.

No word from my estate agent this week so will tel a bit later on for an update, its awful being in limbo wondering if its all going through.

Linda, Im sure you have been very busy packing up everything and i dont envy you!

Hope everyone else ok and keeping warm.

Joan if you do look in, hope the day went smoothly <3

I hope that everyone is OK. I will be thinking of Joan tomorrow. <3 <3

The move is plodding along here. I am trying to swap over all the utilities etc. it is amazing just how many things are on the list. Most of it should be easily done on line, but the websites crash or when they seem to work, the follow up email is wrong. It is all head banging, but I will get there

Well done Linda. Happy you now have a moving date, thats a relief to you as you can now plan to that date.

Very cold here tonight and I have had to put the heating on in both bedrooms. Its promising snow at some stage but not sure if we will get the worst of it.

Today it has been raining all day and pretty grim outside. The wind died down but now it is getting up again and its bin day tomorrow, never fails.

I was making 10 bags of gift tags today with 10 strung cards in each. I ordered coloured hologram paper which is a good thick card. Took me about 2 hours, but all done and bagged up now ready for the Spring Fayre end of March.

Brother is back to work with a big support thingy covering his hand and my cut has now sealed properly so taken off my bandage as well.

Hoping I get to hear this week from sol or estate agents as not heard in awhile but the paperwork takes ages!

Hoping the sun shines on Thursday for you Joan <3

A bit of good news from me. The contracts on both houses were exchanged this afternoon, so there is no going back now. We don’t move until the 22nd.

Good to see, Joan, that you found a chink in the curtain. Hope the weather holds for you on Thursday.

It is good to see you posting Joan. You will be in my thoughts, especially on Thursday which will be a difficult day for you, but I am sure it will be a wonderful celebration of your husbands life

Evening all.

Joan, good to see you posting.

I'm sure with all your support of family, everything will go smoothly on Thursday. If I lived closer, I would come and support you but sadly Im too far away.

Like AnnG, I would like to send you a card but don't know your address.

We will all be thinking of you on Genes next Thursday <3
