Hope you have a fabulous cruise on Azura over Xmas. We are moving on 15 Dec, going to an Airbnb for a few nights then to Nidd Hall (Warners) for a couple of nights. Furniture been delivered 23/12 so we will be in a mess this Xmas. The house needs immediate work that’s why we are not moving in straight away. Fortunately we are going out Xmas day and at daughters Boxing Day Michelle

Somewhere warm sounds good to me too. We are about to move house in the next 10 days, beginning to think we should have bought somewhere warmer than the UK Michelle

Have a fantastic time!!! Post some pics to cheer us all up Michelle

This is exactly why I book so early if I know am taking the grandchildren. It seems too far away but it will come soon enough. People think I am mad to book so far ahead Michelle

We are currently driving up to San Whitley Bay, it is very cold. This is going through the lakes

That’s good news, no snow where Sarah is but our daughter in law has just sent a photo of them walking to school in wellies as they have a covering of snow in Whitley Bay. I love the drive up there, the scenery in beautiful although the M6 north is notorious for accidents Michelle

We are coming to Whitley Bay on Friday, I better come prepared for snow then!! Michelle

I would do whatever it takes to help you. It’s no fun been in pain all the time, it’s affects people both physically and mentally. In my opinion try this clinic and get their advice. Twenty years ago I had a slipped disc that caused nerve root compression that stopped my bowels and bladder working so I know what pain you are going through and how soul destroying it can be. I had no option but to have surgery to resolve it, which it has but unfortunately they didn’t operate soon enough and I now have no reflexes in my lower leg. I hope you find a solution to your ongoing problem. It sounds like you have a lovely family who are there to support you. Let us know how you get on. Take care Michelle

Brilliant!!! 🤣

I have booked Royal Caribbean August 25 8 nights out if Southampton, promenade view cabin, 2 adults 3 children (17,15 & 12) £97 per night per person. I thought that was a good deal. Same party June 2024 Puerto Pollensa, 7 nights AI £120 per night per person. I do think the prices appear to be increasing but I believe there are some good deals out there Michelle

I didn’t have my specs on when I typed it!! Should read “it’s like a new lease of life” Michelle

Sounds like you have done fantastic, slime a new lease of life for you and so quickly

Morning everyone, it’s a beautiful sunny morning here but cold, my car windscreen has ice on it. Going to my usual ladies coffee morning later. A “guess the baby” quiz has been organised for this morning so I am sure we will be giggling at all our photos. I have done 95% of my Christmas shopping so might start wrapping this afternoon. We have eight grandchildren - it has been expensive!! Plus five of them have birthdays in either December or January Have a lovely day everyone Michelle

Looks like you had some lovely food Graham Michelle

Really sorry to hear you reporting this Josy, I will be thinking about you all Michelle

Have a lovely catch up and lunch out. I am meeting some old friends over in Yorkshire tonight, they boys are going out & the ladies are going out so I am looking forward to that. Michelle

Fantastic photos, thank you for letting us follow along with you Michelle

I still buy those for my grandchildren at Easter. Even though my daughter is 32 she still expects one too Michelle

Good Morning everyone, hope you are all ok today. It looks a cloudy but calm morning here today. Hubby has just taken the dogs out for a walk. We are meeting our project manager at 9.30 what is to be our new house(we hope) providing everything goes through. Hopefully moving in December. We can live in the house but there is lots of work to do. Test driving another car this afternoon, a new Hyundai Kona. It looks nice so fingers crossed. Test drove a Kupra Altea on Monday and a Lexus UX yesterday. I have a mobility car and have to change my car as it’s five years old and it’s the maximum length of time they will allow me to keep it and they don’t make it anymore or I would have another. Have a good day everyone Michelle

We are on Arvia too, March 2024 TA. Really looking forward to it Michelle

Fabulous!!! I booked one with Royal last week for August 2025, taking the grandchildren You will have a wonderful time Michelle

I use Booths every week, not for a main shop (too expensive) but I do buy bits there, the deli counter is always good, and the cafe of course. Our self serve tills have gone, it is nice to speak to a person at the till, although I have been told that some customers like the self serve tills especially those who just go in for a sandwich for lunch for example Michelle

Don’t think I would have liked that, a stretch too far for me Michelle

We used to live in a village in between Bradford and Halifax, there were some fantastic curry houses around there. We have a good one or two where we live now but nowhere near the choice we had before Michelle
