Saturday and returning home

Good morning all, have decided to pack up a day early and having a more relaxed pack up time. Tomorrow we would have to be off the site by 12.00 and the washing facilities are closed from 10.30 to 12.30 which seems really stupid. Imagine if you had a few kids and a long journey home you would have to make sure they used the loos and be ready to go by 10.30 or you would be looking for somewhere almost as soon as you set off. Hoping there won't be as many big lorries on the M25 on a Saturday - horrible journey here, no hold ups but fast lorries all around you and you can't be sure that they can see you. Prefer getting in a jam and going slower

Take care all, enjoy your day.

Afternoon Jacky...

What a morning! Took the curtains and linings down to Mum's house ready to put up and the tracks are down, need washing before putting back up.
Then had to go into town to get some things I had forgotten to put on my Asda delivery.... going around Asda we get a call from Amy - my mum had a fall and was complaining of pain in the left side. We literally rushed out of Asda to come home - it seemed all the traffic had decided to go slow, and there was hundreds of tractors (well not quite but ykwim) on our way back Amy phoned again to say that the Paramedic checked Mum over and everything was fine. Her blood sugar was up a little, but she had just had lunch. They are going to get the Falls Team to re-assess her. Called in to see her, I was upset, Mum was upset wanting to know why she kept falling. I have told her I think she has the hots for the Paramedics! The CArers are going to keep a close eye on her, and I have said Amy and I will go down this afternoon for half an hour for her to see Bailey. Just wish I didnt get so emotional sometimes, this is one thing I cant hide and Mum knows it. But cant help it.

Good afternoon all.

Yes, am back from my holiday. We had brilliant sunshine every day except on Thursday about 4pm the heavens opened and it rained all evening, but on Friday morning the sun was out again. I can honestly say we have had fantastic weather.
We spent a lot of the time on the beach, so have caught the sun
I have the washing in the machine and the tumble dryer on, and have just been to Tesco's to get some food, saw a friend of mine there, she looked at my tan and thought I had been abroad lol
I had a really good time, and so did the lady I went with. I thanked her last night for such a wonderful holiday and she said she couldn't have been with anyone better

Oh dear Karen, so sorry to hear your Mum had a fall too - it is upsetting but at least she wasn't at home on her own, she is in the best place. Hope she has recovered fully now

Great to hear you have had a good holiday Marion - we were very lucky with the weather in Cambridge too apart from Thursday but we paid a visit to Duxford Air Museum so Martin had a great time walking around 8 hangars full of aeroplanes and I went round one too then had a cup of coffee and read my Kindle I must say I am really pleased with it, I usually take weeks to read a book, but for some reason I seem to be able to get into it better on Kindle and read 2 books while we were away - saw the size of one of the books in the shop and it was quite a size. The best part is, you can make the text bigger and easier to read

OH Karen sorry to hear about your mum falling , its only natural that you get emotional after all its your Mum . my mum is suffering with me going to the states she says as she can viualise where iam and what iam doing but going thereshe won't be able to untill she has been over and seen me !! mum ah ????!!! we are all the same ....
