Don't be fooled by today's warmer weather - it's forecast to get colder and wetter over the next few days

Still significantly warmer than where I came from. The current temp in NYC is -8C with an expected high of -2C. This has been our winter, unfortunately. Much colder than the norm for us. The temps expect here this week are what NYC winters are generally like with a few cold snaps here and there.

And can I ask: How is even Twinings tea better here? They send us the rejected stuff, don't they?

No idea on the tea MoB, I only drink coffee

If nothing else, the English are tea experts .

And yay, glad you made it safely

I drink both depending on my mood and my tummy. Though the free coffee they tried to give me at the Ren this morning was icky.

*squishy huggles Jann*

My boss brought in her laptop. It has one humdinger of a virus on it that she got from clicking on a link in Facebook.

I am doing battle with the virus right now and it looks like it's going to be a very long day. I have been at it since 8:30 and have barely chipped away at the danged thing.

[boxeddreams]

*runs in* I don't have long. I'm so busy. Work, uni, trying to pack for AT5. Sorting out things for you WooHoos - to go with the badges! +1 will be here tomorrow and I haven't even made space for her to sleep!

My first question - are we still having a cocktail party on Friday? You may have said so here lately but I can't see every page right now.

Secondly. *huggles those who need it* *huggles for Jann*

Kerry is going to collapse on your floor/your bed when she gets in and SLEEP.
(I haven't had a good nights sleep since...... Thursday? I keep tossing and turning/being awake all night instead)

[Sarai]

AT5 will begin for me in T minus 14 minutes when I leave work for Josi's

Woot!!!

Some good news WooHoo's

Dad's cancer has not spread to his lymph nodes so they will be doing the surgery to remove the cancer ASAP. They have to remove 2/5's of his right lung but after all is said and done (surgery, recovery etc...) his quality of life will be much improved. He'll be breathing better.

[josiane]

Evening all!

AT5 starts here!!! Sarai is on her way to mine, then we'll be off to Jumble's later tonight

Can't wait to see everyone!!!

Stopping by to say I've arrived in London. And now I need a nap. *huggles*

Welcome to our side of the pond!

And can I ask: How is even Twinings tea better here? They send us the rejected stuff, don't they?

I think they must It's always puzzled me how tea just doesn't taste as good elsewhere in the world, even if the teabags are the same brand. The only place outside the UK I've ever found decent tea is Australia.

So glad to hear some good news

*huggles Jann* Must have been a scary thing to have happen when you're so far away from home

I reckon it's the English water that makes the difference

Indeed it must have been I picked it up from FB, where she said she was out of surgery and I thought 'WT.... heck' and searched for her previous post.

[Cagranosalis]

*huggles Jann* Ouchy.


*huggles Bree* Good news about your dad. Fingers crossed for the surgery.


*is suitably breated by LJ* Um, yeah, i'll get that ticker/sig sorter...er...soon!


Woohoo, woohoos! Those staying here, er, you don't need to bring towels/bedding. I have plenty (unless you have a favourite you like to use). I also have enough shower gel, soap and shampoo to last me until I'm retired - a legacy from the Christmas before Ben was born when everyone thought I'd need to pamper myself when he arrived (not that I had time to! ) So yeah, some pick from my boutique!

And you would be right ... can't beat Yorkshire Tea IMO

And while I've dropped in, hugs to those that need them...

See some of you soon!

[Devilish Me]

(((huggles Jan))) It must have been scary... *sends virtual candy and nekkid hot guys*

Bree I'm so glad to hear about your dad! I mean it's not great but it's not bad either... *hugs* *virtual kick in the cancer* Stupid thing.

MoB! Glad to hear you got there safe and sound I had some bad dreams about that But it was just a dream.

I bought rakia for our get together at Cags *giggles* and am almost all packed. and Silvia made sure I know which buss number to get at the airport so I think I'm ready.

*loud squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee*

See you tomorrow

[Jumble]

I don't think there's much point in sending Jann any hot guys for a day or two Dee, she needs to rest

See you tomorrow *bounces*
