Has anyone solved the problem of catching something from the grandkids every time you visit? I thought we had missed out this time but not so. Sniffles and a cough - just like no 7 grandchild has come down with!! Don't you just love the little darlings - they share everything with you.

Hi all, I have to have more surgery on my nose. They didn't get it all. There was a SCC and a BCC and they got all the SCC but not all the BCC. Naturally it was a big shock to me. Luckily my second son had driven me in, and was out in the waiting room. I got the nurse to call him in, as I was a blubbering wreck. Not only...
