Oh I hope to be on the beach soon! I am a single parent so my son is quite safe he’s a good boy and very helpful when I am at work x

Oh Chris's bless you if she has half your strength she wil do well. 

Like you I am missing the lil ones. We are fortunate to at least have FaceTime etc but it's not the same is it.

chin up lass.. we can only do what we can even if is pitiful little... but everyone knows the limitations.

hugs sent yr way lass ️ X

A well deserved acknowledgement lass. How's yr mam doing

it's weird how all this is just becoming the new norm. Sadly I think it will b a long time before life as we knew it comes back . 

am I right in thinking u can go to yr beach hut as long as you are home to sleep in yr own bed... or am I wrong lol. 
 

take care lass ️

Ah billy so glad Bren is more her old self.,, please tell her I'm asking after her and t make sure she keeps u on yr toes:wink: x

Bad :- so much finger pointing on fbook about people driving places for picnics and walks when it's what they have been told they can do..... I know it's born out of fear though.

good :- son in law finally has people wanting him to do work ( he has had no work or money coming in for 8 wks now). Daughter has been told she is back to work on Tuesday again hers has been their only income which was 80% of an apprentices wage... so she too is relieved.   I should be their child care but we should not be mixing other households so the lil ones will be going to school ( daughter is classed as an essential worker. Not gonna lie we are all twitched about them going... but they need to earn to keep roof over head, food on table and clothes on back. They are fortunate they still have jobs. 
 

anywho... stay well, stay safe, be alert x

Mum doing ok. Still self isolated but best thing really. Sadly only allowed to check to make sure everything ok with beach hut and then have to leave. If I sit outside wouldn’t be two metres away from people walking by. 

But least I can walk along the beach which is very calming x

Hi all, 

hope everyone is doing ok. Had my scan and baby is growing well so all good there. Still debating wether to find out the sex. Not too sure this time round.

had dreadful weekend.... Jamie's lovely Nan passed away Saturday morning. She had a fall at home... nothing serious and just in for some physio. Was due to be discharged Thursday but contracted corona and died within a couple of days. We are all heartbroken as that was the last of Jamie's family in Southampton apart from his brother. His dad died suddenly about 8 years ago and his mum died from cancer a couple of month before we met. Both under 55 so very young so he's feeling very down which obviously is having a knock on affect at home but all I can do is support him I guess. He is next of kin so got a lot of organising to do. Trying to sort the funeral today. Just makes you realise how dangerous this virus is. Think people are getting a bit complacent.

anyway sorry to be all doom and gloom. On a good note sun is shining so gonna jump in the pool in a bit and wake myself up a bit. I'm not posh, it's only an oversize paddling pool but the kids love it and I got a unicorn float to lay on lol.

please take care everyone and hug your loved ones.... from a distance obviously haha. Virtual ones to you lovely bunch anyway.

lots of love.... Dizzle xx

Hi Dizzle,

I am so sorry to hear your news about Jamie's Nan. This terrible virus has taken so many people who have had to be admitted to hospital for other ailments. This is a particularly difficult time to arrange a funeral. It is always a shock to lose a loved one so suddenly and, to find that you are now the senior generation of the family.

All you can do is to be there for him. Encourage him to talk to you if possible, as you don't want him bottling this all up within himself.

I hope that you enjoyed your stint in the pool - nothing better than nice cool water on a hot sunny day.

I am delighted to hear that all went well with your scan. My son and daughter-in-law knew what sex their first baby was in advance, but did it as nature intended second time around and, with the benefit of hindsight, thought that this was better.

You are both in my thoughts and prayers.

Kind regards,

Jolamine xx

Bless but like you say at least you can walk along beach got to take the lil wins don't we x
