Didn't say I didn't like the creative so please, please don't take my comment on not understanding it the wrong way. I don't understand much of the C21st, Breckland, cup cakes, how anyone can eat most Keto recipes or why folk singers stick a finger in one ear - among so much else.

You do not have to understand the painting. It is paint and water on a piece of card doing its own thing, apart from me applying it....
Different papers react to different paints and water, and I do not know how it is going to turn out.
It is satisfying for the painter to do this....
Or at least it is satisfying for me....
 
I'm so pleased the process is satisfying for you. I really struggle with the idea I don't need to understand anything, can't? that's ok, don't need to? does not compute. Then I realise so much of my faith is a great mystery and only by faith am I justified through grace..... lest any man should boast. Talking of which, wonderful of you to drop in @lindisfel I hope you and Marjorie are keeping warm and well. Peace be with you.

Very similar to my story, and my mum had to go into debt for my first year uniform, because of the amount of unique clothing and equipment. It was ridiculous. I couldn't play cricket because of my lack of proper clothing 'whites' to play. I was the only pupil in my junior school to pass 'enough' to get a grammar school place.
It was all graded. And unsurprisingly, the more affluent junior schools, were represented more favourably.
 
No FBG today for a couple of reasons.
My daughter was in a crash, not her fault!
So after all what entails with that, daughter and #5 having been checked by the hospital as ok.
And the insurance was good and everything should go ok.
I am now catching up with everything.
Haven't eaten, made sure Mrs L is ok.
Not a good day all round.
It is freezing cold and had rain, sleet and snow, with a northerly breeze.

Hope you lot have a better day than I have.
Best wishes.
 
Never good to be involved in an accident but if it has to happen at least being cleared as OK by the hospital and insurance being good over things is as good as it gets. You take care of yourself now, eat drink and if not be merry be nourished and ready to go again tomorrow.
 
Glad daughter and #5 are all okay
And that the insurance company was okay and should go smoothly.
Hugs for you @Lamont D for the shock of it all.
Make sure you eat now x

Have made sure my daughter has settled. I have to keep telling her that she is doing everything she should do.
It is always the delayed shock, like me it's much later when it hits, our instincts are to not just let the incident get to us. We both are very good in these circumstances.
We don't panic.
I have seen too much, not to be that way.
I may tut and curse (oh yeah) fraggendicdasterdly, but it was drummed into me, to act.
Thanks for the hugs @gennepher.
I do appreciate the support.
 
A rude & rather late reply @alf_Josiah .

Humblest of apologies, just got tangled up with 'life'.

Absolutely marvellous news regarding the lasering.

Now you'll be all lee majors , spotting speed cams & 'smidsys' from miles away .

Brilliant stuff , so pleased for you .

Omg @Lamont D .

What an awful moment for her & #5

But as others suggest could have been worse .

They say any accident you walk away from is a good one.

Hope they both have no lasting effects & the shock and adrenaline settles down quickly for her .

Far too easy to repeatedly go over all the 'what ifs' at times like this .

Good for offering such great support , do her good to know she did everything possible & correctly.

& Genns right, hope you've got some decent food inside yourself since then.

Can't help anyone if your stuck by the side of the road trying to start the car when its on empty .

Best wishes.

7.8 at 04.30 today. Sorry for not replying to some posts. I will go back through them. I expected to be tired yesterday, but not as completely shattered as I was. I also managed to mislay my glasses so reading anything was difficult. Found them eventually. They had fallen into a waste bin. All's well now after a sleep and a rest for these poor old bones.
 
This morning Libre says 3.2 finger prick says 4.6 not a huge difference but significant.
0 degrees here going to have to get the mobility scooter out from under a layer of snow and ice that still remain would rather of used the car today but it’s in Aberdeen with Keiran and anyway you can never find a parking space at the doctors.
 
Thank you @ianpspurs. We went into one of those Tomahawk places a couple of weeks go. The manager asked how things were. “Fine” I said, “just a pitty about the bacon” - smoked was the only option. Signed, dissapointing of Ipswich.
 
Smashing postcard art. Terrible that you and others had to sit in such a cold place and seemingly little concern about peoples health. That electric blanket will be working hard.
