Helen asked[quote]And Elizabeth, how did you do that enormous smiley? [/quote]
Simples!!

I spotted yesterday that there is now an "image" button along the top of the Reply box (bneath the word "Message"), so all I needed to do once I had googled a suitable smiley was to copy its URL into the text box that appeared when I clicked the image…[Read more]

Well done, Slim on getting all those little cells out!

I only managed just over 2 million in 3 days. 🙁

I am glad you have persuaded them to organise your appointments better. Though it will be a long tiring day for both of you so try and get some rest…[Read more]

I was sorry to read you were back in hospital, Mavis.

I hope it won't be too long till you are able to move around more easily and that things are organised to help you manage at home soon.

Hi Steph!

I am glad you are posting here as well as Andy.

AS the others have said, anything you want to ask or moan about is fine with us, as someone here will be able to at least emphathise if not suggest ways around difficulties.

Hi Kirsty!

Welcome to the club you never asked to join.

I was turned 60 and like you I took a while to accept that I could be diagnosed with a disease that I had never even heard of, as I had thought I was suffering from "just" a bad back and was actually expecting to be offered back surgery, but my consultant soon got things in…[Read more]

What great news for you both, Gill!!

I wish you a wonderful trip.

Which hospital are you attending, Janet?

One of our members might already have scoped them out and be able to give you the lowdown on where the yellow lines are.

Welcome to the forum, Tom, though I know from your profile you have been visiting for a while already it is good to see you posting and be able to say Hi!

All my best wishes for good walking weather on the days.

Have you decided which part of the route to do or are you planning on attempting to do the whole circuit?

Thanks for posting that link, Dai.

It was recommended last year as "required viewing" on one of the low carb support boards I visit, but I had lost the link to it.

I don't quite manage the whole 3 dinner plates of veg she recommends but do eat probably half that amount most days, and coupled with my last 9 years following the Atkins way of…[Read more]

I am another yellow liner, here! A year or so ago our hospital car park started to charge Blue Badgers but there are still a few spots with double yellows which are fairly near the entrances, so most times we don't have to pay.

Wishing you all the best for next week, Andy!

Dear Nicola and your family
Saying how sorry I am to hear that your Dad is taking his final journey so soon after being diagnosed seems too little, but like all the other members I am sending you my best wishes and hoping that all happens peacefully with you all together with your Dad.

Lots of cyberhugs from

Hi Mavis!

I had 6 cycles of CDT prior to my SCT and only really experienced general tiredness during that time – according to my husband I did not get much of the Dex attitude others got, so maybe you will miss out on that "privilege" too!

I have also been lucky with having no pain from bone marrow biopsies, but others have said they always…[Read more]

Have a lovely time in Venice, Val!

I went there a couple of times in the 60's and would love to revisit as there was so much to see in such a small area.
