Good day Guys & Gals, chilly innit?

Thought I`d share what`s been going on Chez Nous.

Thursday was a great day…very posh too!

I treated my sis, who is also my PA, to a Ladies Luncheon at the banquetting hall nearby. It was held in aid of the local hospice where I go for respite. We`d bought a new outfit each, with matching jewellery and had our hair done for the do.

We were treated to entertainment by a Michael Bubbly-type crooner. Nice and easy, he looked about 14!!!

The feast was top drawer and oh so yummy;

warm goats cheese tart with warm salad

chunky belly pork with roasted apple with a `` je ne sais quoi` sauce, but gorgeous. Green beans, creamed mash and carrots

the pud! Wawawa wow!!!

A huge roll of vanilla ice cream with meringue, strawberries and orange segments inside, covered in a rich chocolate sauce…oh to die for…no, I don`t like that expression, but I`m sure you know what I mean! The waiters all came in carrying several of these foods from heaven aloft…with an indoor firework in each and sparkles flying everywhere. As I said…wawawawow!

Just to bring you up to speed, hubby hasn`t had a ciggy since 11/11/11 …easy date to remember, eh?

Oh, and I`m going for a weeks`s respite on 1st dec. And the ceiling hoist is working well.

T`aint so bad, is it?

luv Polly xxxx

Hi Mel, ta for your reply. Congrats on the success of your fag quitting!

Off out shopping tomorrow and meeting a pal who has HSP…this is what I holidayed from MS with, last year.

Confused? Yes, not surprised. It was when a new neuro said I had HSP and not MS, after 12 years! Then a year later, yet another neuro shoved me back to MS! All fun, innit!

luv Pollx

Hi Poll,

I am very envious of that truly fabulous meal you were treated to. I hope that this doesn’t mean that you have tro go on a ‘one bean or two’ type diet once you arrive at the respite centre? This will be a nice breather for you both pre-Christmas. Well done to your other half for now being a non smoker for eighteen days.

Best of luck,

Moira
