Knew it

none of them see each other again

thanks ladies sorry just had to compose myself

yes, we have all been covid free so far *touch wood*  mum and OH were shielding so we have been very very careful and not been out much over the last couple of years ... we did manage to have a week in Bala with Jade in May last year, and am back working in the office now.   worked at home for a good while and luckily we have been very busy in work

how have you been covid wise?

seems to have worked so far glad that i got to work from home so much, spent lots more time with my girlie

well, you know how much jade helped me get over losing barney, well i thought if i got another pup it would help give me something else to think about ... i got maddie in october, she is a romanian rescue, she was 1 on valentines day, and such hard work - my cat is not impressed with her at all he just looks at her like she has stepped in something smelly

i get that, one of the guys in work thinks he had it in that same december, without knowing what it was ... you have been brave mixing with all those children ros, give yourself a pat on the back,

my dad was lucky, well as lucky as you can be with kidney cancer, but he got into hospital the following march after a slight delay and had his operation to have it removed ... we weren't allowed to visit him and it was a worrying time, but at least he had the surgery and all tests since have been clear

to be honest ros, i think it was too soon ... but hey-ho, i would never give her up now, as difficult as she is   how is your son?

I have come across quite a few  people who think they had covid in 2019 - it was certainly  around before we knew it existed
