Yes @Shaz51 I too had corgi's @BryanaCamp - a male by the name of Peanuts and a female called Nutmeg.

Hi there gorgeous @Peri ... lovely to see you getting around the forums a little bit this afternoon. Are you well?

@Gazza75 I have been reading a number of your posts around the place lately. Great to see you being so active. I hope you are finding your feet here and benefiting from the support and camaraderie of the forums.

Hi anyone else around.

Sherry

I love the names @Former-Member , peanut and nutmeg

@Former-MemberThanks very much. Trying to find my way round here a bit still. Hopefully not stepping on too many tootsies 😉 I hope you are doing well today and have time for a nice cuppa at some point!

hi @Gazza75 hope you're travelling ok? I've got a strssful appointment out of the way so feeling very relieved now.

hi @Former-Member and @Shaz51 my dad used to have corgies (10 years ago now), they were so cute and loyal and had the best perosnalities.

@Shaz51 I'm cooking catfood - I know it sounds weird but he has a delicate constitution and the best way to keep him out of pain and away from expensive vet bills is to make his food. Quite a bit of work but worth it.

@Former-Member how is your hubby going, am I right in remembering that he's in hospital and your staying in accommodation nearby? Sounds like quite a demanding time, I hope you are doing ok, you're a very nice wife.

Hi @Gazza75 ... I havent seen that you've stepped on too many toes as yet. You have been putting some very nice supportive and helpful posts out there. Really pleasing to see.

@BryanaCamp ... yes corgi's do have really good personalities, are very loyal and are oh so cute. Given the cost of vet fees, and the suffering otherwise suffered by your cat, I think cooking food for him is a sensible and economical alternative to commercial pet food.

Yes my hubby was in the city hospital being treated by a neurological team for a week, but was discharged just over a week ago now. He is doing much better now thankfully. Major improvement to where he was 2 weeks ago. He was suffering from autoimmune encephalitis, for which he is now being treated appropriately to reduce brain inflamation with high dose steriods. It was a tough time for me personally staying in the city while he was in hospital. It causes flareups in my PTSD symptoms. So I was super pleased to get home again. But the city stay was necessary, and now that hubby is on the improve, it was all worthwhile.

Gosh @Former-Member that sounds very stressful. Brain inflammation, gosh who can understand that, sounds so severe. I am sorry you had ptsd flare-ups in the city, you're brave to stick by your man & endure that. I get complex-pstd reactions & it ain't pretty. It is very wonderful that you're back home, back with the confort and sanity of home. Hope you have a well-deserved "time-out from reality" tonight, have a lovely dinner, including a cocktal if you can manage it!, enjoy the company of your loved ones & indulge a little...chanmpange and dessery sounds good.

Ha ha ... thanks @BryanaCamp

I was in fact just looking at the restaurant menu online. Checked out the cocktail menu, and there are a couple which sound very appealing indeed. So I may well take your suggestion and have one. The good thing is that one of hubbys friends whom we invited to come with us is driving us. They get a free meal on us, so I guess they felt it only fair to drive. Yay! I dont have to drive ... for once. So I can have a drink .. or two even. Although I am never really comfortable going out anywhere, I am actually quite looking forward to tonights dinner.
