Perfect timing for Mr Katie's and my upcoming flights.

I’m mot sure bursitis comes and goes like that. I’ll defer to the doctors here! I was diagnosed with it in both hips around Sept last year (via ultrasound). The cortisone injection in one hip a few weeks ago has been the first thing to make a significant difference to the pain. As always...

Thank you. My only cruise thus far (as I don’t count the ferry from Oslo to Cooenhagen!!) was a 6 night Disney cruise, so the dress standards were much more do what you want and formal meant wearing your sequinned Mickey/Minnie ears!! 🤣

Cruise etiquette I'm going on an AMA Rhine cruise with my Mum in a few weeks. Do I need to dress up for dinner? I'm thinking maybe linen trousers ... but was hoping to keep my luggage minimal (that is, single suitcase) as I'll be carting it by train from Berlin-Essen, Essen-Brussels (with 2...

This would be part of their ISMS/ISO27001 requirements to inform interested parties of an incident. I assume they're ISO27001 certified, even if they don't advertise it (couldn't find evidence from my quick googling; my employer doesn't publicly advertise our security certification lest it...

I'd guess Salesforce. I've seen knowledge base articles come up in search results on the QF website that clearly come from Salesforce Knowledge. And you would not choose that product for KB unless you were using Salesforce for more, IMNSHO.

Slight spanner add to the plans, but hoping some serendipity might come into it! Mumma Katie came home yesterday to discover her bathroom vanity pipe/hose had exploded and her house was flooded. :eek: After cleaning up what water she could with her neighbours, Mumma Katie stayed at our house...

So, this is our cruise: Knit Retreat 2025 At the start of the year, we finally started knuckling down with arrangements. But first - Mr Katie's BFF threw a spanner in the works. "Katie and Mumma Katie are on a cruise from Amsterdam to Basel in Euro Summer? Well, how about we re-do our Spring...

Trying to find the just right balance of not sitting too much, but not standing too much, not walking or exercising too much, but not being too sedentary. Doing exercise except for when it hurts. Sometimes ibuprofen helps a bit. I had a very ordinary Sunday and start to today. Yesterday my...

Who are you calling elderly?? 🤣🤣 I’m not even 50! Yet. 🤪😆 But there is pain, I’ve been in pain for about a year (though the cortisone injection into one hip for bursitis has helped with some of the pain, but not the spine pain; the facet joint cortisone injection did bugger all other than give...

Sometime way back when in 2023, I spotted an Instagram post by the Skein Sisters yarn store in Sydney (where I've never even walked through the door!) announcing a Rhine River knitting cruise in 2025. I mentioned this to Mumma Katie (my mother) and she seemed unexcited by the prospect. Her...

Had an MRI the other week on my lumbar spine. Have the report, but not seeing the ortho for a couple of weeks. Love this line (sarcasm) - it's making me feel very old! "Dessication of the intervertebral disc with marked loss of height" I prefer any dessication to be of coconut around my rum...

WOW! I'd better not let that power go to my head. 🤣🤣

I keep wanting to edit the title of the thread "Airports which are absurdly close .." to "Airports that are ..." Per my corporate style guide. :P

With the Loft rooms, is the loo downstairs?

Oh, and that's my foot surrounded by those garra rufa fish that allegedly nibble the dead skin off your feet. Watch out for the fat ones. IRL, I'm much taller than a hobbitses.

Mine isn't my name, it's my initials, how they would be said.

Just had an injection in my hip for bursitis. I'm hoping it will be more effective than the injection in my facet joint in Feb (the only appreciable effect of that injection has been numbness along the side of my leg ever since). The injection hurt like <swear words>! The doctor reassured me...

Pulled a Pol Roger 2009 out of the fridge on Weds night to have with the ILs. They were over for dinner, as they do every week, and Thursday was their 60th wedding anniversary. Thursday was also their middle child's birthday, but most of the family went to a nice lunch in New Farm yesterday to...
