Thank you Lydia. It is from my charity shop haul in Cleveleys

Yes it was lovely to see Paula again. Whooping cough is something that you don't immediately think of these days.

Thank you Diane. A lot of my perfumes are actually aftershaves or mixed gender ones like CK One.

Thank you for your kind comment

I agree, even a keyhole procedure would be a monumental adjustment afterwards. Unless absolutely necessary put it off.

I don't think that I have a choice but not spoken to my GP yet as to what the next step will be. I will keep you updated once that happens.

@@Notshortever I am in a lot of pain so I hope that there is a way to stop this. I haven't yet had the phone call from my GP so don't know what the next step will be. I was hoping that they could 'zap' the stone and disperse it but the technician said they usually remove the gall bladder altogether. I will have to wait and see what the recommendation is.

My dad had gallstones and had to have his gallbladder removed. I think I was about 14 at the time. He was a bus driver but had to stop and take a job in the Ash office of the bus company.x

Thank you. It is one from my charity shop haul from Cleveleys

Sadly Kendals went many years ago. I forget who uses the building now. I bought my wedding dress from Kendals and used to go to the cafe when I visited Manchester. My Mum loved the ground coffee from there. They had a lovely coffee shop that sold lots of varieties of coffee beans and would even combine 2 or 3 different beans to make an individual mix. They would grind it for you if so requested.

Unfortunately this hooping cough outbreak does affect adults as well. The adults don't tend to whoop and vomit. either way it is horrible a friend was diagnosed by her GP with it a month ago. It amazes me that every child has been vaccinated as a lot of us were when we were children in the 1960's along with Polio and Diptheria so why has it got such a grip yet again?

I think that people think that whooping cough has disappeared and are no longer vaccinated against it. Paula has been whooping for about 3 months now. I remember having it as a child but don't think that my son ever had it. I love crocheting baby clothes. I am trying to use up some of my part balls of yarn.

@@annbeirne9583 It's something that most of us thought that it had been eradicated by vaccine. Maybe this is a new strain. I watch Paula from Stitched by Mrs D and she says she and her daughters have been coughing for about 3 months now. Maybe not all children are vaccinated now. I presume that I was but remember getting it as a child.

@@goldyyarde7022 It's just basic granny stitch squares crocheted together. There are many basic videos on RUclips. I don't do tutorials plus I am having camera and pc issues at the moment

I suppose it's people who thought that whooping cough had died out and not been vaccinated. I had it as a small child. I haven't yet heard from my GP so no idea if or when my operation will take place. I seem to love the most expensive perfumes but the nearest I get to them is a free squirt in the big stores when they have testers on display.

I still love the smell of hot tar. My Mum used to say that it cleared the sinus.

Hi Sina

I am still not feeling 100% but that could be something to do with the diagnosis of a gallstone. It's my third injection tonight so wish me luck .

So do I Joanne. It's just so annoying when this could be avoided with a continuous supply of my injections. It happens every time I have an enforced break because of lack of supplies.

I am so undecided whether I want to travel abroad at the moment. Something that I would have to think about before getting a passport.

I don't know. Maybe it is because I keep drinking when I can't eat and my medication does stay down for a while.

Sorry the side effects have affected you so badly…when you started on the injections it would have been on a lower dose and then go up in order to avoid these effects So after a long gap between meds it makes sense to restart on lower dose..if your syringes are preloaded then only use half you shouldn’t have nasty effects then with a bonus of them lasting longer … Also drinking plenty of water will also help..

@@Sewrelaxed707 That sounds like a better plan but I am at the mercy of my GP and diabetes nurse so don't have a say in the dosage of my injections. If I had a constant supply then these side effects wouldn't happen. The people with money don't have this problem as they can buy the injections privately. I can't use half an injection as they are pre loaded like a gun so that it's all or nothing. It's not a syringe.

Thanks Esin. I am over the worse now.

Thank you. I am feeling much better now. Still not back to eating much but at least I am eating something.

Thank you Lorrie. Hopefully I am feeling much better now.

I suppose that it's all to do with money. People with money can pay for the injections. I argue this fact every time I don't get my injections but although the medical staff are sympathetic they can't help me. This time has been worse than usual as there was such a long gap between prescriptions.

Sorry to hear that you haven't been well. I am feeling better this week although not really eating normally yet.

Thank you. Sorry that you had to undo all of your hard work. I knew that I wouldn't wear a Taylor Swift dress and would not be able to sell it if I made one. High street stores are now selling very cheap versions of this dress.

Thank you Sylvia

Thank you. I remember a lot of those brands from when we had a wool shop many years ago. I wish that I could turn back the clock to those days but it was hard, but pleasant, work in the shop. I miss going to trade shows for all of those lovely brands that are sadly no longer in existence. All yarn seems to come from Turkey or China these days.

Thank you. I still feel nauseous after I eat anything but slowly getting better. Had my second injection last night so wish me luck.

@@Sue-o4m I am wearing little gel toe protectors on my little toes. That seems to be helping. I will try the vaseline if they still rub.

Hi Jan. Hope you feel better soon. You have six weeks till our coffee date.

@@lindanagle5081 Hopefully I will continue to get my injections until that date. Looking forward to meeting up for a coffee.

@@seaside2001 That's a good idea but they do have a wool content and I itch like mad with wool.

@@amandab8838 I will try to find the pattern for you

@@UrbanGypsyCrochet thank you Jan x

@@seaside2001 I had forgotten what was in those purple boxes. The wool in the organza bag was something I don't even remember buying. I used to buy so much wool at one stage

@@gloriaj.bowmanmzgloscroche3060 Please not a blanket. Anything but that 😀

@@Patricia-lpk Never.. I don't make blankets especially in fine yarn. I made a granny square throw once. 160 squares. Never again.

@@Crocheter1979 I can't blame that book as I never read it or saw the film 😀

Trust me your not missing anything 😂

That sparkly yarn is gorgeous

Thank you Joanne. I will probably add long sleeves to my black cardigan making it better for wearing in the colder months. I am so pleased with my new handbag. I saw it last week when it was £10 and put it back on the shelf. This week it had been reduced to £5 so of course I bought it.

@@munchkinheaven7877 Thank you
