Reasons To Be Cheerful, Grateful Or Affected

[LadyCG]

1. OH has brought a couple more boxes down from the attic - books and DVDs. Among them the one and only series of "Come Fly With Me". It was one of the funniest series I've ever watched and now I can watch it again :-)

2. Our Carpenter is still coming on Monday and bringing another person with him because he aims to get the whole lot done in a day.

3. Miss E is very impressed with little one's mathematics skills. When I told her that he could recite the alphabet backwards and count backwards from 50 at the age of 3, she looked at me a bit quizzically. Now I think she can see what I mean.

4. It's Friday tomorrow - best day of the week at work. Last week was so eerie with the world reeling from the shock of HM's passing. For no patients, Consultants or Managers to call all day is unprecedented.

5. It's heartening to see all the people who lined the streets as the Queen made her way back to London, and all those who have queued to file past her coffin in order to pay their respects, and it conveys a sense of unity during this time of sorrow and mourning.

What are your reasons to be any of the above?

Thanks Ian.

Damn it. I wanted to go to Neuschwantein, but if there's a naughty bridge, I won't like it.

The Lost Gardens of Heligan are lovely. We went whilst in Cornwall last year.

I could count properly from the age of two. 1, 5/4, 6/4, 7/4, 2, 9/4, 5/2, 11/4, 3, etc etc etc.

Good for you, Ken.

Ken,
100/30, 100/8, and 7/2, too. All gone now, I think.

Never met one sorry

How do you meet an ABer?

You don't have to go on the bridge, Rocky.

We did the full day trip so we visited Linderhof (which is amazing), Oberammergau (where they have the Passion Play once every 10 years) and then Neuschwanstein. The latter is very touristy but very much worth seeing.

Smurf, you need to be part of a clique and then you organise a meet-up. :-)

Sandy, 100/30 shortened to 10/3, 100/8 has gone but 7/2 still very much with us.
