Happy Good Friday

 

Good Friday Morning Ladies, 

I hope that you are all ready for a lovely long weekend,  what have you all got planned?                  I think our weekend will be mostly be spent sowing and in the garden.  Our lot are all working sadly 😔, when I think back to when the children were small, they loved Easter,  Paul always did an Easter Egg hunt for them, which they still remember now, we always had a huge Easter Lunch,  we are still having a lovely lamb roast but there will only be 4 of us sat around the table, it will be an evening roast too as the girls won't get home until almost 6pm.  

Karen & Lilian I hope you got your Prescriptions sorted, I feel really lucky at the moment as our current pharmacy is really good, he really goes above and beyond to make sure you get what you need, the last time I had a uti he rang the GP surgery for me to explain that he didn't feel comfortable treating me (as gp suggested), he explained to them that my history was far too complicated for him to diagnose for, he made sure they saw me the same day too.  He also must remember your prescription as I went to buy Cymalon sachets and he said that I couldn't take them with the medication I am on.   It's quite reassuring to know.  

We had a very long day out yesterday,  Becca had arranged to collect some bud vases and candle holders from a ladyin Hungerford, so to make the journey worthwhile she said, "lets go charity shopping in Newbury ",  we set off, she was confident that she had got the Salvation army charity shop in her sat nav as our first venue,  we drove past a big trading estate that had a Salvation army building,  but she was sure we were on the right route, turns out she forgot the charity shop part in the search, it took us straight to The Salvation Army church hall ! 🤣😂 Soph and I were in stitches.  We parked nearby and had a look down the Newbury shopping centre,  it was quite nice,  not much in the way of charity shops though.  We visited a few shops, found a branch of Sostrene Green, its a lovely little shop that sells home decor, they had lovely little bud vases that were 88p and £1.20, their candles were cheap too, so Becca bought most of what they had, she was really pleased. We had lunch and then went to find the actual Salvation army charity shop,  which didn't disappoint,  we got tealight holders for 25p each so pretty crystal candle holders for.£1. We were all exhausted by this point, so we headed to the address that lady had arranged to get the wedding bits from, she was really lovely,  she got married in late March,  she had the exact table number holders that Becca wanted, some lovely bud vases and candle holders too, so all in all a really successful wedding shopping day, Becca had a huge smile on her face which made it all worthwhile.  Needless to say today will be a rest day for me! 

I hope that you all have a great start to the weekend,  

Love and hugs to all of you,
