Bloody hell JennyJane.

 

We all get times when it seems like the entire world is against us. It will stop at some point, honest.

Thanks, John, he lives with me, so I'll let him know.

I'm holding onto that it wasn't a fullblown stroke, it was a thing called a TIA, it was over within an hour but can still have serious consequences, but it could initially have been far worse.

[john pike]

sorry jenny

 

silly post by me

 

should have said when you make contact

 

thankyou

I hope he pulls through ok. Never good when someone has a stroke no matter how minor they are. Just hope that it was it and he will be on the mend in no time

[JennyJane1]

Anyway, I don't want to make everyone miserable so what's this about snow reading back?

thanks cs, we will know more after the scan.

[Steve C]

Southernman has some friends here he talks to occassionally, though he isn't as chatty as me, just to let you know, he was taken ill this afternoon and they think he has had a kind of mini-stroke, they are giving him a scan on Tuesday to confirm it.

 

Bad news.I am wondering how much more we have to go through.

 

Sorry to hear that JennyJane.  

 

The 'hunt for snow' is put into perspective - there are so many more important things in life. I like snow to fall here, but it's really fallen in my priorities, since my teenage years.

 

Best wishes.

Much less serious, though he'll doubtless be advised on lifestyle changes as regards diet, stress, exercise, etc that it's important for him to stick to.

Hello JennyJane and your Southern Man, though he doesn't post here he feels part of this community. Hope all works out, thinking of you bothAS

[Snow Queen one]

I don't post much on here but am sending my thoughts to you Jenny Jane and hope all works out OK. Try not to worry too much modern medicine is marvelous nowadays.

Xx

[Bluebreezer54]

Sorry to hear that news JennyJane. My best wishes to you and Southernman.

[Bluebreezer54]

Very sad news regarding the missing boy in Scotland as well. Body found, the search has been called off and his Mother has been detained by police.

 

Quickly back on topic, it's pouring down here again though hopefully it should be fairly short lived.

Good morning JP. The rainfall in parts of the South East seem to have been concentrated on areas that least need it don't they ?

 

I am lucky in that I am well away from potential flooding, but I can sympathise with those who are not.

[john pike]

hi bb

 

i agree it feels like this rain has been relentless

 

and as you say seems to be effecting areas that do not need it

 

thats why i hope the fax and ukmo are right

 

they will be colder but also would be a lot dryer as well

 

and would stop this atlantic onslaught at least for a little while

 

anyway mate i better go to bed now

 

take care mate

 

goodnight

Have seen many pics of the floods on the Internet from the Surrey areas from Friday flooding, the Cobham area has now flood warnings by the EA, that's where I was stranded on the 24th! all the water coming down from the swollen rivers through Gatwick and leatherhead areas, the Mole runs from those areas towards Cobham and Hersham, the next in line down stream gets this water soon.... the rivers respond so fast in these conditions and rise very quickly.

 

(also noticed a photo of Cob river Friday very very orangey brown and muddy, not seen this in previous pics, possibly a lot of banks are eroding?? I think much concern with this idea what could happen if it just keeps raining!)

 

More rain fell than expected Thrs night into Friday morning, then what was seen on the night I think. These things happen and are hard to predict. I was watching the radar last night, and saw the shower train sitting there, and this merged and sat around for hours hitting the same areas, and here I also got a lot of those downpours. A watch is on for our region for more heavy showers/rain (going to post in the heavy rain watch thread now, should be available to read in about an hour)

Firstly sorry to hear your news Jenny Jane 1, I hope you both get better shortly, I am sure with modern medicine and the love and care you both give to each other the healing process will be made quicker.

Nice to see JP still mentioning cold, can't wait for him to get into full ramp mode, got a feeling it won't be long now. Be great to see some dry, cold weather, and who knows eventually the S word might be mentioned, if an easterly transpires the the fabled Thames streamer is always a possibility, then dirty Dartford is transform into a white wonderland. How about that for a ramp.

Its dry and dark out at present, hope everyone has a great day.

morning all radar  sugg  more  rain o what a  surprise!!

[tinybill]

don't like look of that rain over s/e  could cause more problems  to-day

[fluid dynamic]

Our thoughts are with you JennyJane and Southernman. We had a chap at work who recently sufferred a mini stroke after years of stress and bad lifestyle and diet choices. He pulled though without any permanent effects, in fact he became even more full-on and more of a pain in the neck than before!

Weatherwise, i am not even going to look. I hear rain.

Have a great Saturday
