Think Jo’s right L. Mince and potatoes isn’t the answer

How do you know? It might be exactly what she needs!
Pip
Hun, listen to what she said yesterday
Pip
‘I just need to shut myself off for a bit’

You popping over with a cottage pie you’ve whipped up is hardly that is it?

Can we meet up for coffee or something?
Pip
Coffee sounds good

Would love that
Jo
Does Filter at 6pm work?

Afternoon
Jo
Just listened to your voice note
Jo
What a lady!
Jo
Think that’s a great idea
Lisa
Would love to do something like that
Lisa
We could do it for Breast Cancer Now
Lisa
They’ve given Heather so much support and I saw on their website they do all this incredible research too
Pip
Definitely
Pip
Think that’d be great
Pip
Part of me wants to do it as a surprise for H
Jo
Think she’d actually really love that
Lisa
What could we do?
Pip
Jo
Sorry, just to be 100% clear, are you suggesting we all shave our heads?????
Pip
Yep!
Jo
Bloody hell Pip
Jo
That is bold
Pip
Jo
That is bold
Don’t you mean...bald?
Lisa
I love the idea in principle, no idea how I’d feel about actually doing something like that
Lisa
Or how John would feel for that matter!
Pip
I know, it’s a big thing
Pip
Obviously let’s not get ahead of ourselves
Pip
But Heather’s going through something really life changing
Pip
And if she does have to have chemo...
Pip
I don’t know
Pip
Could be really empowering
Pip
Anyway, just wanted to put it out there ❤
Pip
Who knows what’ll happen

L was going to bring you a cottage pie...
Lisa
It’s true
Lisa
Didn’t know what to do
Heather
Love your cottage pie
Lisa

Heather
Not sure it would have been the answer on this occasion though

It’s a date
Lisa
Love that idea

Don’t bite my head off

Emma’s 16

I can’t imagine her mum was a goody two shoes at that age...

Jo
Pip I’m sorry I called you a hippy

Heather
Have you told Mike?
Jo
He isn’t back yet
Jo
It’ll be fine, it’s sorted
Jo
He’ll be glad it wasn’t him
Jo
He’s much more laidback than me but this would have made him feel very awkward!
Heather
Can imagine

I don’t envy you Jo!
Jo

Jo
This afternoon wiped me out!
