I'm here! 
Oh Sweet that sleigh ride sounds wonderful! I'm so jealous! 
So there are compensations to having so much snow and sub zero temps. I've been watching the temps on vista for Ottawa for quite a while now and was aghast when it showed -25c earlier today!! 
Lol at Dr Zhivago, that is one of Wac's favourite films.
I don't blame you for not learning how to give the injections Sweet I know I couldn't and wouldn't do that either as I'd be so scared I would do something wrong.
Thanks for the tolerance re my post of concern for you Sweet and I understand where you are coming from with some of the comments you made. I know the food issue is very important to you and I can understand your dismay when you see people becoming ill and their quality of life being compromised partly possibly due to incorrect food choices. You are very kind to care Sweet but unfortunately as you know only the people involved can make the necessary changes to improve their own health and well being.
I am so sorry to hear about your poorly friend, I presume she is terminal.
Not sure if the snake tale is true or not Red but it's made me cringe on and off all day when it keeps popping back into my head.
How lovely for you to have Ashley as a visitor for a wee while. I hope you both have a good girlie time whilst she is around.
Lovlee so nice to see you here. Would love to give you more info about the room move but I have only grasped the transition to the ladies take a break facility on facebook. I tried multiply but didn't like it so haven't been on in ages and wouldn't know where to find my membership details now. Yvette as always needs to be the best person to advise everyone.
This afternoon we had a lovely spell of sunshine that was quite warm for about an hour and I enjoyed this whilst James and I washed our cars. I also gave Mark's a 'quick do' as it was absolutely filthy and looked so unloved.
Just before I fall into bed I will give you a brief mention of our trip. We have had a lovely five days although 2 of them were travelling and the countryside on the journey there is a bit tedious as it is mainly motorway and just field after field for scenery.
The hotel was a little run down but spotlessly clean and the people who ran it were very friendly.
The food was absolutely gorgeous with plenty of choice, well made and piping hot.
Each evening there was a choice of soup or salad for starters so I always had the salad which included lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, onions, tuna, cheese, coleslaw and potato salad. There was beetroot but I don't like that.
For my main course I usually chose stir fried veg and boiled rice but I could have had assorted potatoes, several boiled veg, chicken, beef or fish. There was a vast array of desserts, usually one hot eg apple crumble and custard plus lots of cold desserts including fruit, chocolate gateaux, strawberry gateaux, ice cream, creme caramel. Three evenings they had chocolate fudge cake so guess what I chose. 
There were trips out everyday and we visited Barnstaple, Minehead, Ilfracombe, Westward Ho and a couple of other places I can't think of the names. Our coach driver was a very considerate driver although a little quiet. He didn't give much commentary on the journey's as his usual routes were Ireland and Belgium so he probably didn't know very much about the Devon countryside.
On our last afternoon we went to Dartington crystal but I didnt buy anything but it was very nice to go and see the products and I watched the video of how the place started and how they make the glass it was very informative and interesting.
I'm off to bed now...if it doesn't snow overnight like has been forecast I shall be up for church early on.
