The next flight for you to watch will be our Emirates flight into Manchester on 27.05.2024 landing at lunchtime (UK time) xxxx

I video called Alex this afternoon, he looked well but a little apprehensive. The cannula in his hand was hurting him whilst having another dose of antibiotics. He was looking forward to going home to his own bed. Grandad and I will visit later in the week possibly with easter eggs.......

Cathy, get ready for some hot weather. We are on our 2nd day of 40 Degrees plus at the moment it is 42 degrees..........

Dad, I love Aldi, out here all there meat is West Australian and it is so good. I dont think I have bought anything there that my lot have said "dont but that again"

Laura is also converted at Aldi.

Dont know but it needs washing.........

When Alex was 8 - year 4 he had to have an ipad, with an apple pencil and headphones for school. Katie could not afford to buy one so Mick and I bought it, I think it cost us just short of $900.00 so about 450 pounds. I know he needs to have a laptop in the next year or so and I think it has to be a...

Today we have 36 degrees, look out Cathy it will be coming your way in a few days time............

My knee operation was done robotically. I was asked if I would be happy to have it done robotically so I said yes......

Sooo, two weeks and two days after a complete knee replacement I am walking about 1 Km a day with 1 crutch but around the house not using crutches. My wound has fully healed and is enjoying the fresh air, getting comfy in bed is a bit of an issue but kicking Mick out into the spare bed maked things ...

It turns out it was from python poo on the warrigal greens she picked and ate...............

I have been wearing hearing aids since I was about 15, they have improved so much. Now I have BAHA's - Bone Anchored Hearing Appliances made by Cochlear - they are wonderful. they are worn on the side of the head either a titamium stud or a magnet holding them in place (I have one of each). They are...

It is in San Francisco............

I went to see the surgeon last Thursday to see what could be done with regards to my knee.....the long and short of it is I am booked in for a full knee replacement on 12th September. He was suprised that I had managed without a cartlidge for 40 years, it was removed when I was 21 at Gisburn Park Ho...

What ever will be will be dad........im just hoping I either get a knee replacement or something to sort out this CT ARTHROGRAM RIGHT KNEE Multiplanar non contrast CT arthrogram right knee performed post instillation of 15ml iodinated contrast. The ACL is attenuated but appears grossly intact. Intac...

Last night we had bangers and mash with heinz baked beans.....yummmmmm

When we were camping at easter the couple on the site behind us had visited Ellan Road last year and loved it..............small world.

Thats a long time for Sally to have to wait for her results. Is that just the NHS system?? I suppose I am now used to our system - Mick had a scan on his leg in March, got the results with in a week, got a referral to a vascular surgeon who we saw 10 days ago and is going in for surgery to insert 3 ...

I am aware of GB Syndrome, my GP is keeping a close eye on me and is calling me regularly to check up on me.

I would not wish Camylobacter on anyone, it was the worst bug I have ever had. I was in bed for a week (which is very unlike me) Im ok now but keep getting sweating episodes which are probably the tail end of the bug.

Mick and I were invited to Laura and Masons for tea last night and had a stuffed chicken roll, potatoes (boiled with skin on then tossed in olive oil and sea salt then squashed with a potaoto masher then roasted in the oven) and salad with an asian dressing and crispy noodles(Aldi....yummy).

Update on Katie, we have been told today that the fluid draining from Katie should be clear but it is yellow and frothy (she has been on antibiotics intravenously sine Friday after the op). They gave her another scan today as they think that there may be stones floating around in her abdomen and pos...

A ruler........

I remember the first radiator we had was in my bedroom at Hey farm........no-one else got one just me.......

Yep, just put the aircon on low, because we have a mostly dry heat we have evaporative aircon which is cheap to run.
