Sally.

She still is a very pretty girl, most girls has extensions now, and you cant even see where they do it .....I only read last week that Cheryl Cole has extensions and she advertises for that hair product !! I always thought it was her hair :S

Stevey....I must admit that scenery looks great up there, your grand kids will never forget their Gramps when they get older :D

My wee granduaghters have just finished their 'Dry Land' Canoeing Instuctions before I take them out on the Loch.

They love coming exploring the Islands with me.

And they really like a big fry-up on the fire when we're finished. Good healthy food like sausages and burgers washed down with Irn Bru.

Sally.

No When asked by the panel where do you come from he said France and when Michael Mc intire asked him did he come over for the show he said YES !!!!

And yes I'm sure that's also staged Sally about the second song that those boys sang.
how deceiving is that ..?

Well I might not watch it any more ... until next Saturday ..LOL

Sally your daughter is beautiful .....oh how I wished I could have been pretty like her with that lovely blond hair .....

Luckily the weather stayed dry for the photos and The food was nice.
i got home just before midnight so I didn't turn into a pumpkin! :-)

I just take the deadheads off my daffs (takes ages) then wait for the green to start turning yellow before I cut them back.

Is she watching you type Stephen or do you always say things like that? :D :D :D


Err, that's not my idea of a meal out, I'd get my dress dirty... :D :D

When I say I'm taking the family out for a meal, this is what they have come to expect from me..

Marilyn,

I have always cut them back.....BUT.....you must leave them alone long enough for the sap in the stems to go back down to the bulb. So your garden will still look terrible for a wee while with all the withered daffs hanging around. I usually give them about three/four weeks. Depends on the weather.
With hundreds of them....I would spend forever just tying them back.....not got time for that.............

My own 'Special Flower' needs all my attention ;-)

You're just being silly now Marilyn, nobody has more dresses than you..... :O

Lovely picture Cath, she looks so sweet.

Just going to run off and get my ironing so I can push it through the cyber hatch to Wend........... she'll never notice if I stick it on top of her pile. I pushed it through to Cath yesterday but she pushed it back. :P

Morning...

Well I watched Dirty Harry last night in bed and it finished just before 1am then I couldn't get to sleep as the film was gripping throughout !! LOL That was both of us !

So Although I'm up now I might need a nap this afternoon, as I'm going to my sons for dinner ..Hey Ho
:D

Yes I do agree Maddie BGT is now a bit of a circus too many doggies that are normal..... any dog can walk through your legs !!
And what about that French lad ...he lives in France ,,,I thought it was* Britain's Got Talent * show .. he had to have an interpretor !! :S

Rita are you around today , I dont think you posted yesterday .

Stevey.... I remembered that you said you cut back all the spring flowers, do you really mean cut them rather than tie them in a knot like I have been doing all these years ..? if so that's what I'll do , much easier,and tidier.

Pauline I wish you would make your mind up about your frock ......your fairy has more dresses than me now :P

EDit..

Hi Wend & Cath.....and anyone else that's around .. :-)

Morning all - just popped in and saw your friendly replies to my post a couple of days ago. I'm feeling guilty because I've been on here for over an hour - then spotted somewhere that Maddie has done all her ironing, which is what I intended to do! Here I am, still in my jimjams, just can't resist it. No doubt I shall be complaining to hubby again later that I don't have enough time in the day to do everything lol

Off to get my wotnot into gear - hope you all have a lovely day. Sun is shining here in Sussex and my garden is positively glistening after its good wash during the night :-)

Morning all,
lovely and sunny here this morning but a bit cooler after all the rain last night.
I will have to change my picture again I think, poor little penguin is lost amongst the fairies.
Going to have a lazy day today, might pop along to garden centre and see what catches my eye.
Jean I'm glad the yobs who hurt Max have been caught and hope they get properly punished.
Hope you all have a nice day,

Cath xx :-) :-) :-)

Morning all
Rained through most of the night.
Saw pictures of our firefighters on the news last night. They have gone from dust under their feet to mud Uck. But hopefully they are winning now.

Room ready for my guests except I need help to remove a spare single divan bed base, which we no longer need.

Will try to get into the garden today to cut back some shrubs before the recycling goes tomorrow.

Have a good day everyone.
Thanks for the update Jean, glad Max is OK and that it is being taken further.

Linda :-) <3

Morning all, we had rain all night........... the flowers are loving it.

Stephen, my mam used to say that about dead people not hurting us, she also made us say 'God willing' whenever we said 'See you later'.

Huia, it's because Stephen keeps changing his photo, you keep missing the ones with people on.

Shelly, it's a long time since you looked that sweet....... :D

Jean, I'm so pleased to hear that Max is feeling better now, hope he gets his confidence back. And I'm really pleased to hear about the 2 lads, wonder what they get for it.

I've got a Sunday dress on my Avatar today. :-)
