Jesus!

Apparently they can be grown in this country though which would surely make things cheaper but maybe the yield isn't so good which hikes the price up.

I think our weather is so messed up, that it's tough to grow anything like that in large quantities.
I'm just guessing though, i know very little about these things!

Apparently they need warmth and probably need to grow inside so who knows. It really would depend on what kind of summer the UK decides to have and no one can predict that any more!

Exactly!
We had like a week of warmth in June this year XD

I'm not complaining about that really

Summer 2022 was lovely

It was! I remember that well

Was that when it was like 42?c??

It got up to about 30 round us.

It was 40 for us - we were wearing all black, long sleeves and no air con. It was horrendous.

Morning everyone

*weeps in climate emergency*

In other news, good morning :)

I hear you Lio.

Morning everyone!

Morning both!

How are you?

Thanks Jen

I'm in Costa before my depot appointment really hoping I can avoid the worst of the Christmas shoppers

How about you guys?

What are you having in costa?
Fingers crossed for you!

I'm ok. Been to asda and got that over with!
It wasn't actually too busy in there, considering.
And i got two maxi packs of batteries for ?8! They're ?7 each normally so couldn't turn that down! Won't be running out of batteries for a while XD

I had a latte :)
Thanks!

That is a good deal on batteries, they're obviously pre-empting the 'batteries not included' present rush :')

I'm not too bad. Just finished the compulsory bits of my morning routine and now chilling with a coffee before deciding if I am up to neuro physio exercise and/or showering today.

You can tell we have all grown up when I have massive second hand excitement about the deal you got on batteries Beckie XD

Hope depot is minimum stress Lio.

Love a latte!

Yes, that was my thinking too!

You feeling any better jen?

Exactly! XD

Morning Jen, Beckie and Lio :)
Our storm has nearly passed now. But it's horrendously cold outside and it makes me postpone my groceryshopping trip because obviously half an hour will make a huge difference temp wise…. Or something.
But hey, at least it's not snowing!!! #justjinxedit

Think I am feeling better than yesterday but tend to feel the best breathing wise in the mornings as it's when I take the steroids so inflammation is most dampened down. So hard to know for sure.

I've been having fun doing some word puzzles this morning.

Morning Zurg!
I hope you haven't cursed yourself too badly and that snow at least has the decency to wait until after your expedition to the grocery store. How is the zoo today?

Oh no zurg!
The weather can be so inconvenient sometimes!
I hope it does end up warming up even a little bit

It's very windy here! Which is making it cold.

Fingers crossed you continue to feel a bit better!

Ooh word puzzles!

Morning everyone. Good luck with errands.

Morning tamo
How are you today?

Morning everyone. Hope all your days go well.

Morning lindsay!
How are you?

Trying to ignore myself.

How are you getting on?

Sending hugs.
Ignoring yourself is tricky

I'm ok. Think L will be here soon

I started feeling a bit worse. :( Taken a load of inhaler and feel a bit better again but not as good as first thing, just hoping to avoid needing an ambulance.

Greetings Lindsay and Tamo!

Hugs available to all who want / need them xx

Afternoon all. I am going to attempt to wrap my Christmas presents today.

That sucks jen!
Hopefully you feel better soon

Word puzzles sound fun LR!

Good luck with wrapping Insig.

I've got 8 hours left on my shift, boo!

Morning Zurg, Tamo, Lindsay, Dawn and Beth :)

Sending many hugs to those who need them

I hope the weather cheers up Zurg, it's very windy here too.

Crossing my fingers that things improve Jen

Sending strength for the 8 hours remaining, I hope they go quickly

Had my depot, now home. I had early lunch of airfryer beige, it was glorious

HELLO

HELLO PI

I'm ok. Dad visited and I washed my hair.

8 hours is loooonngg.
Hopefully it goes fast!

Airfryer beige sounds fabulous lio!

HELLO JENNA!

That's good tamo

What is Airfryer Beige please?

Hello Lio and Jenna. It's windy here. Haven't attempted to watch TV yet so I dunno if the wind is effecting the dish.

Hope you're ok, Jen.

Have you wrapped your presents yet, Dawn? Want to wrap mine too?! My TV signal is rubbish even when it's not windy or even when I use catch up players so I watch most stuff on my MacBook.

Hope your shift is going alright, Beth.

Are you with L now, Beckie?

I also wish to know what air fryer beige you made, Lio.

Hi Jenna!

Well done, Tamo. Hope you had a nice visit.

I did have a nice time thanks. And my mum's coming at 4 :) how are you?

Not with L yet
Will probably go soon

Evening all!

Hey beth!
How are you?

I'm super bored!

How're you?

Been admitted to AMU.

Sorry to hear that lr.

Are you still at work Ahimsa?

When do you think you'll go to L's Cacoethes?

I had a nice time with my mum.

What's AMU please?

Yeah I'm working til 9:30.

And then just 3 more working days to go. I'm working 9 hours on Christmas Day, boo

Acute Medical Unit in the hospital my asthma is getting worse not better so had to come in.

No Lindsay I have not wrapped my presents yet.

Amazon have screwed up my order. Thankfully it wasn't a Christmas present.

My airfryer beige was loads of beige food from the freezer cooked all at once in the airfryer. I had veggie burgers, onion rings and garlic mushrooms :)

Sorry to hear you're back in hospital Jen, sending hugs if wanted.

Glad your visits went well Tamo

That's a lot of festive shifts, I hope they're not too intense.
