We have had heavy snow last night. It has cleared a little this morning. My husband died last night at about 8.30pm. I have to go to the hospital today for some leaflets telling me what to do. My condolences ,very sad but a huge relief for you both.

Gooday Boys and Girls... I didn't sleep much last night so about 5 a.m., I was coming downstairs to have a quick lurk on these boards - Can't remember what I did, but suddenly it was 11.O'clock .... Did I type anything? I have now seen Altheas Post... I expect that she will be busy today, and have much on her mind, so we might not see her awhile. ... Very best wishes to her.

I bet you fell asleep in the chair watching daytime tv. I was in the shower at 5am and supermarket by 6am. It's turned into a nice sunny day here now, a tad chilly of course, I juts threw a bucket of water over the car, too cold to leather it down though.

No, No TV here ..... Ther Man From Uncle has gone, The Real Dr Who has gone AWOL, The Avengers is no longer a true-to-life drama, (stop sniggering) and Lady Penelope and The Thunderbirds have retired... On second thoughts .... there is a TV here, My intention was to remove the Works and Build a Model Railway diorama inside through the screen - Havn't got a clue where it is now ... But I did have some geezer banging on my door to see my TV Licence... Of course, I told him his fortune, but I certainly don't want "Authority" demanding access just to watch TV drivel...

I actually feel a huge sense of calm, now that OH is not suffering any more. Lots to sort out, but I'll get through it one day at a time.

Yes, thankfully no more suffering or pain. You will be busy for a week or two no doubt sorting things out. Not the ideal time for funerals with this virus around, but it has to be done.

Morning all: Much colder this morning with a heavy frost, on top of all that rain it will be dangerous on the roads today.

I hope you feel much better soon, GLO. If you need help, ask for it. Most areas have volunteers who will do a bit of shopping for you. You should be able to contact them online. It's cold here, but the sun is shining. Most of the sadmin for the funeral etc. can be done on the phone and online, so that saves lots of dashing about.

No, I'm OK Althea.
My Birthday today - Perhaps that's why I'm moribund... Teatime, Sat 22nd, Surviving London Hosps overloded at the time, so I was Born In The dark Satanic North ... So I tell people I was born in a Castle - The Town Name incl the word "Castle". (thinks: it was actually for damaged airctaft that RAF/USAF didn't wanted to wreck a "Good" airfield elswhere...).
Strewth I feel old.... can anyone help me polish my walking stick?
