[Trisha]

Morning

[Sharon]

Morning all

@Eva, thats terrible, was there much damage?

[Eva]

Not really, being a bit snicky about it but we are going to view another flat tomorrow, even though the owner is doin what she can to fix everything quick, i feel like im betraying her.
The thing im more annoyed at is that i only manged to write 240 words for nanowrimo, which means i have a lot to catch up today...ugh!!!

[Sharon]

you still have 28.5 days to go. Just when you do get to write some more, just write like there is no tomorrow. All the editing comes later.

Well what a weekend! Hugo is in Pontivy hospital he had an asthma attack on Saturday evening and we had to fetch the SAMU out, they think he may have an auto-immune deficiency but they won't know what until the results of the blood tests tomorrow evening. Jo is still here with Leon, Herve has gone back he has work tomorrow, Jo should be working but Hugo is more important. She is allowed 6 days paid holiday per year with a sick child and she will be taking it.

Hope to speak to you some time this week.

[Sharon]

Poor Hugo, hope he is ok.

Hi everyone, just had a brilliant weekend in Devon. It was our friends 75th birthday which was held in a tiny pub. He has a friend who is a fantastic guitar player ex-member of Dire Straits. The pub was heaving and every one was singing and dancing until the early hours. My friend at 75 was dancing on the table, i hope i am like him when I reach that age.We returned to the pub on Sunday to pick up a raffle prize and there they still were sitting by the fire laughing and chatting as though they had never left. I now have a very sore throat and no voice.

I have finished my latest book and don't know what to with myself. Each time I write i learn so much more. I am now wondering if i should separate myself from my earlier books and write under a new name because I now think they are not very good and I now know what road i want to travel along, that being the scary one.

Hope you guys are all good. I think I shall have to get down to some serious christmas shoping. I bought my youngest son a rocking horse once and he loved it and it's cheaper than the real thing.

[Eva]

hey, i know i hope we get a flat pretty soon.

[Sharon]

Morning/Afternoon all,

I have started my christmas shopping thankfully, will be doing the rest wither next weekend or the weekend after ;o)

[[deleted user]]

Are you moving Eva, not easy at Christmas. Good luck.

I am going to start christmas shopping this week. I want to get it out of the way so i can sit back and enjoy.

[Sharon]

Same here, so the only thing I have to do is wrap them up, (naturally with a glass of bailey's to help me do so) ;o)

[Sarah]

Darkangel wrote: "Poor Hugo, hope he is ok."

He's fine we fetched him out this afternoon and then took the children to the big M for a treat because they have been a bit neglected and left with Hugo's big sister Aurore who's 17! We bought her a new dress because she got lumbered with the baby sitting!

He is on antibiotics and stuff and we will have to wait for the results of the tests which will be sent to his own doctors.

Jo has managed to give us all her cold too!

[Sharon]

Oh what a lovely present from Jo. Monst has man flu at the moment and is of course dying.

Hi Tarian

I haven't done any writing for a week and now I have a stinking cold and my daughter and children have ended up with an extended holiday because the baby had an asthma attack and ended up in hospital Saturday evening.

So I have a house full for few days until I take them back to Normandy.

Alain is back at work tomorrow and he is showing signs of coming down with man flu now!

Yeah tell me about it I did it five years ago 12 days before Christmas!

Hi Sarah, You are really having a bit of a rough time. My youngest used to have asthma, very scary, he was also allergic to dairy. I sympathise and hope he is better soon. Man flu that's a terrible illness for the nurse dealing with it. Most of mine have already had it a couple of weeks back.Tooth ache is our latest problem.

my parent are in their 80's and two christmas's ago we helped them move house in the snow. it was a farce.

Hope everyone gets better soon.

Can anyone recommend an editor.
Thanks

How about Emme, she did our stories for the Anthology or Paul Anthony but I am not sure if he only does murder mystery thriller or whether they take on anything. I'll ask him for you if you like.

I have a headache with coughing and blowing my nose this morning and I am wearing a new perfume - Vicks! Baby Hugo seems better this morning which means the antibiotics are kicking in. All we need now is for my cold to improve and then I can take them back to Normandy and find my house again!

oil of cloves works well for tooth ache!

[Sarah]

Morning all

I'm coughing better today my nose is bunged up and I would love to go back to bed and hide under the covers until lunchtime but there's no chance of that!

[Sharon]

Morning,

It is so cold here, feels like my nose is falling off.

[Sarah]

Darkangel wrote: "Morning,

Yes it's cold here too today but at least the sun is shining it rained all night again not that we were going anywhere.

[Sharon]

Yes, the sun is out here to (for a change). Hope you are not ill for too long.

[Sarah]

Darkangel wrote: "Yes, the sun is out here to (for a change). Hope you are not ill for too long."

So do I! I definitely couldn't drive to Normandy the way I feel today!

[Sharon]

I know I will be getting it soon. Monst is terrible with it.

[Sarah]

If its the same strain as we have here in
France you will feel bad my head feels like its about to explode!

[Sharon]

I can imagine. Put the fire on and keep warm and have a nice hot soup to warm your cockles ;o)

That would be great if you could ask them my book is a doomsday fantasy horror and anyone very religous could take offence.

I don't think my sore throat is from singing too loud because it kills today. I love soup. My eldest son has just arrived, time to put kettle on. Speak in a bit.

[Eva]

Hey everyone, it seems everyone is not well! I hoe yous all get better soon.
@Tarian, Emme did a really good job with the anthology, I'm saving the pennies to get to edit my one when it's finished. She is on my friends if you want to contact her.

[Sharon]

Hiya Eva,

How is the writing going?

[Eva]

Well, just went over 4k this morning, which I should be around 10k to finish on time, it's never going to happen. I'm finding it quite easy to write but it's getting the chance to sit down without any interruptions, which doesn't seem to be happening often enough. And you?

[Sharon]

I am about the same with the time, just finding it a little too hard at the moment, hopefully will pick up soon though.
