I'd pass you some Fisherman's Friends but trust me, even when you're throat is sore, they are ugh! If you were nearer I'd bring round my Vicks throat spray, tis fab, kind of numbs the soreness if that makes sense.

Have you gargled. Can't bear honey and lemon but my family luv it, tis very soothing.

Oh th, I had some fabulous pressies, twas as if my mind had been read ... by my one of my absolute favourite artists too, have been 'blown away'.

What you listening to on the radio hun, I've been listening to Leonard Cohen and more on Youtube. The others are square eyed in front of the tv lol!

((((((((((((((((((((((special Christmas hug)))))))))))))))

Am so pleased you managed to eat a little something too. xxx

Oh gosh, the warmth to cook a BBQ for Christmas Day dinner. :) We haven't eaten yet, tis OH's birthday so they always have a brunch, usually eat around 2-3pm but this year we've decided to eat much later, around 6pm'ish.

Your music sounds lovely, have been watching clips of musicals, listening to music of different types.

ShimmsRedRoseAndMistletoe Report 25 Dec 2008 18:25

Oh Maz,

There was a time when I always cooked, adored it ... entertained too.

When it was my son's birthday I'd have so many children, prepare finger food, teeny tiny things, make those little cakes that you can eat in one go too.

Joints are horrid aren't they, we take Glucosomine capsules, Cod Liver Oil too to help us.

Lol, me ... I have a tendency to break bones. :)

Oh honey, if you can th that would mean you are getting better, even if only for a quick 'to the corner and back' walk.

I had two hip replacements three years ago which has taken a lot of the pain away now but my feet get painful when it is cold but i am too young to give in so it is perseverence thats keeping me going
i used to cook alot at home but after cooking for 130 everyday and then thousands in the forces the novelty wears off lol

Have family members who've had hip replacements, say it's like having a new lease of life. Your feet, is it arthritis or Reynards or both hun. xxx
