Hi everybody,
Ive been prompted by Davina there are a few messages here so im here to say thank you for all your comments and best wishes. They are always welcome indeed

Quick update then, in that Im OK, and so far not had C19, but I have had to get a test along with my sons for separate potential infections. All clear thank goodness, and now we are back into lockdown.
I had a second hair transplant at the end of July and waiting for that bit to grow - ill take a pic sometime as the rest of my hair is long and untamed (bit like me lol). Dont wear wigs for a couple of months, and getting used to 'eating hair' and having to hoover up all the shed hair so much...
Still no NHS appointment at the gender clinic but should get something in about 6 months all being well.
Im still working, so not been into the works since Feb due to my time off (still seeing counsellor over that), although where I work, Bombardier, is selling the global rail part of the business to Alstom. Time will tell what will happen here I suppose.
Ive been on a diet for like 4 months - 800 to 1200 calories and lost a total of 7 lb. that must be a record for bad dieting. I have a treadmill and using it twice daily for short sessions 15 to 20 minutes of fast walking / jogging up a 1/10 incline. that's really good for me. Also twice weekly weights sessions (light ones). I still have 4 stone to lose.... so Im changing my dietary regime. 'Noom' (if you know it) didnt work for me at all.
Anyway enough of me.
Mum n Dad still in the same situation, but hope to see them over Xmas.
Sold my tuned Peugeot RCZ as a local garage messed it up when in their hands and I have no comeback on them, and bought a Mercedes SLK instead - bright red metallic. Id love it to be a SLK55 but I got a 250 Diesel which is fast enough in all reality, and its a cute metallic red colour - I got some matching lipstick ... that just had to be done...
What else, just the weekly Video call with the local girls , no clubbing unfortunately.
Oh, and I'm a site Ambassador for Diversity and Inclusion which is all good stuff.
One of the support groups I'm in also is up for a National Diversity Award - we are finalists, and Im going to attend the televised award ceremonies in Liverpool Cathedral in April (It was Feb. but delayed for C19) - gives me more time to drop a lot of weigh , after all ITV (UK channel) are apparently televising the awards!! The Guy running the group is called Shay Robertson, he's been on TV a few times as he's put out a book on his transition. He's a great guy and a good friend.
Also I am in the groups calendar for 2021 for February, and that has sold all over the place, especially as we have members from all over the world now. The group is called Trans'pirational and is on FB as well meet ups when we locked-up, sorry - I meant in Lockdown (is it much different??)
Did I say I have built a small pond and have 2 pet fish now? I cant remember what Ive posted so I may have. They don't have names and I hope they survive the winter....my first fish so I hope im doing OK..
Anyway, I do hope you are all well, and if not, then I wish you a speedy recovery.
Take care
Luv n Hugz
Katie
