I’m ok thanks and will have my first RT treatment on 31st of this month. I’m ready for it. Hope you’re doing well dear friend. Xxx🩷🩷🩷🩷

[Blackbird9 in reply to sassy59]

I'm glad your getting your treatment organised and your prepared for it hopefully... We are all good here just dropped the grandkids home we had them overnight 🤪🤪

[Ern007 in reply to sassy59]

Glad your treatment is sorted. I finish my BCG treatment Tuesday. Then I will within weeks to have a Cystoscopy with biopsies - Home same day probably. latest day after - Then the call to Preston for all the results . In between Tuesday and Cystoscopy i hope to have 4 days in Blackpool for lights, Anne deserves that break.

Stay positive Carole - My fried had the same as you, and RT treatment was great for her. xx

[rosco59]

Wow! You just don’t see starry skies like that much anymore with so much light pollution. Wonderful to see, thank you.

[Blackbird9 in reply to rosco59]

Thanks Rosco this is the middle of the forest so very dark area just small A roads locally 💜💜

[rosco59]

Wonderful. Gives one such a feeling of serenity just looking at it.

[Blackbird9 in reply to rosco59]

You are so lucky BB, what an area to live in. I can't remember when I saw the sky like this, living in a city there is so much light pollution x

[Blackbird9 in reply to Izb1]

I took Sadie for a late evening walk .. My Stan used to love them late at night nobody around to annoy him 😂😂 Sadie was a bit spooked but she will get there love her 💗

[Izb1 in reply to Blackbird9]

Oh bless, she is still young and am sure she will adapt x

[Tykelady]

Your area looks so beautiful it would be hard to find a favourite place.

[Blackbird9 in reply to Tykelady]

Thanks so much this has been my favourite area for many years ❤️

[Mooka]

Hmmm I think I know where that might be 🌅. We’re hoping to visit again this autumn and would love to see the pigs out. X

[Blackbird9 in reply to Mooka]

Pannage pig season is from September end till November ish end ... Are you staying in the same place as before xx🩷

[Mooka in reply to Blackbird9]

I think we probably will as it was so easy to get around from there. Xx

[Jaybird19]

[Blackbird9 in reply to Jaybird19]

I would love to go to Hebrides I'm Scottish and never went further than Ullapool years ago 🩵💜

[Blackbird9 in reply to BronchyBronwen]

It's called Hatchet Pond if you google you can find it easy ... I live 5 mins from here 🥰

[leo60]

[Nicholatracy]

I totally understand why, it’s calming 🐞

Very much so especially later in the evening 💜💜

[primrose123]

Absolutely stunning Blackbird9 👍 you are so fortunate to have such beauty all around you, so serene,tranquilizing & calming too ... Primrose 123.. x, 😊

[Blackbird9 in reply to primrose123]

Many many thanks Primrose that's very kind 💜💜

[Ern007]

Looks very tranquil - I can see why it's your " favorite place "

[Blackbird9 in reply to Ern007]

Later in the day or early morning is best 😊

[Ern007 in reply to Blackbird9]

I think for me - That sunrise and sunset really are not different. I think i would settle for later in the day, say sunset

[dunnellon]

A peaceful pond and a stunning sky. What a lovely combination!

[Blackbird9 in reply to dunnellon]

Absolutely agree with you ❤️🩷

[dunnellon in reply to Blackbird9]

I looked up Hatchet Pond and saw some more photos of it and the New Forest area. Really lovely. It must be very stimulating and fulfilling to have such a wide variety of flora and fauna within your reach! We have a lot of white tail deer here and enjoy seeing them daily. Right now the herd has many doe and young deer and one spotted fawn, and 4 one year old bucks, handsome guys, but I expect they'll split up in the Fall. To be able to see nature makes life a little sweeter. 😊

[Blackbird9 in reply to dunnellon]

It certainly does ... we live in a beautiful world some people just don't open their eyes wide enough to see it sadly 🩷

[Alberta56]

Beautiful, made more so by the starry sky. We don't often get to see more than the brightest stars round here. xxxx
