 What a lovely couple of days I've had.Middle daughter took me Christmas shopping where I picked up essentials such as a new Christmas jumper to replace the lovely pure wool one I had which turned into felt during a 40C wash. I'll make it into a seasonal cushion cover one day.. Sadly couldn't see anything for oldest daughter who will receive her present late this year as I'm probably past the parcel posting date for Japan, her current abode. Son, who buys what he wants as soon as he conceives the desire, has requested latte spoons and a window bird feeder. I'm not quite used to having three fully adult children who want sensible presents.
As well as pushing me around the shops, daughter took me home and fed me Sunday dinner. She's an excellent cook so this was a real treat.It was also nice to play with her naughty but gorgeous dog- children will be effortless after him, although sadly, he wanted to eat the jumper I was wearing more than play with toys and to drop the salivated over chew things of unknown animal origin into the shopping bags.
And then the fiab reveals : I had four, all stupendous:

A lovely little spine chilling horror storyof the oldfashioned type which spooks but doesn't flail around to provide an explanation

Biggles isn't easy to buy for but Algy succeeds.A lovely moment in their lives.

I am utterly delighted by all of them. Thank you very much for them. I'm slowly re-reading and commenting on more of the wonderful stories in the exchange

And the icing on the cake is that I finally managed to get a doctor's appointment and have been cleared to drive. He wants only short distances for the first month and for me to be accompanied so I haven't quite got full freedom of the roads again but its a start. Need to get my car MOT'd and road taxed and to sort out how I'm getting to Lancashire for Christmas but life is moving in the right direction.
