The Daffs look lovely everywhere you go.when we went to Portsmouth all along the train route you saw nothing but yellow and white Daffs they looked really lovely
I said to my sister if the children in Devon are anything to go like the children in Norfolk alot of thoses on the roundabouts and at the side of the roads will be bare come Mothering sunday as the children pick them to give to their mothers. bless them

Jean your scan has come around quickly I find that with mine I think mine will be about May ? I have my warfrin test on 19th next month.

Morning everyone
Home alone again, hubby left for work at 5;00. Beautiful with the sun shinning this morning.
Washing is already on.
Going to try to cut back some plants by the greenhouse so I can paint the fence(never been done in the 20 years we've lived here!!! Will also give the side gate its annual spruce up, ie another coat of paint too.
Then I want to start on the downstairs cloak room, needs redecorating, but probably only have the undercoat and gloss for the woodwork. So will need to get hubby down to the DIY

Have a lovely day everyone
Good luck with your scan Jean

I am just going to watch the last of the Heir Hunters on BBC 1, this series seems to go so quickly.

I went out for a little walk it is lovely out you do not need a coat. the daffs are out and look besutiful I saw three tubs of minuture daffs they are the smallest I have ever seen no bigger then a thumb nail.

I am going out again later to Knapphill villiage just for a walk around.

It's a lovely day for a walk Rita, get plenty of fresh air while you can, we can never rely on our weather to be the same 2 weeks in a row.

Marilyn, if it's above 12°C I think it's summertime. Up here, we've had people wandering around in shorts and vests all this week. I think it's going to be 10°C today - but that's good enough for me to go out without a coat. Mind you, people up here don't wear coats in the winter......... they're as hard as nails.

Cath, I've been looking for a marriage for about 2 years now and I've come to the conclusion that they just lived in sin.

Morning again
Just taking a break
On a roll today
Washing blowing on the line
Stripped the paper from the cloakroom walls
Cleared the border infront of the fence ready to paint it when I have had a drink

Enjoy the sun everyone especially Marilyn. PS Hubby was wearing shorts yesterday. And I am in the garden today with only trousers and a teeshirt

Pauline, dont let people hear you these days about not being married and living in sin as you put it. lol
Prince William and Kate living in sin and hundreds of stars and famous people without us lower citizens .

If our ancestors had been a live now they would not have had to hide the fact they were living together and not married.

I went for a walk to Knapphill village, brought some shopping from the Co-Op then walked to the elderly peoples club paid my subscriptions of 8 shilings a year means I can go to fete or on outings ot have dinner of drop in for a coffee of tea.;
while there I made an appointment for my TOE NAILs to be done. one on Marilyn lol.
. then I strolled to a charity shop and brought a lovely book on London some really lovely photo's in.
caught the bus home. was just having a cup of tea when my friend phoned to say she was bringing me over some famil;y tree magazines she has brought to read. with some disc of Wales.
Now she has gone off to buy some fish and chips for our dinner.

Hi all.

Pat.... where you a Librarian at one time ? my goodness does your Library have any books left after your visit ..LOL

Cath ...do you need another pair of eyes for that marriage your looking for ? if so spread it around as one of us might be able to find it for you ..


Poor Rita that tinnitus don't seem to be going away does it .....maybe if you try and forget it it will soon disappear on its own..

Had loads of bad news this morning ...a very young couple my neighbours have split up !! she has gone to live somewhere, he is left devastated .
Another older couple has been evicted from the farm house for not paying their rent AND spilt up !!
My neighbour opposite me is up for sale ,don't know why YET !!!! although her dad died while I was away and has been left GOLD !! so maybe buy a bigger property.

Its going to be a Ghost Village soon..

Its a lovely day and I have been in the garden pulling up weeds......I hate that job,but its already looking tidier.

Pete is killing all weeds in the driveway with chemicals ,,, better not get any on my boarder flowers or there will be WAR !!

Marilyn
its your thought you went away and your neighbours missed you.
but seriously it is very sad.

I have been out again this afternoon went to the post office to buy two books of stamps before they go up. save a few pennies.
then I went into the charity shop to see if they had an audio books to help me sleep she had a big box of them most are new or nearly new. I brought Rebecca and Pride and Prejudice and Brideshead revisted. they were only a £1 each. most were misteries Inspector Morse, Lewis and Agatha Christy as well as a lot of Ruth Rendall mysteries.
.
I met one of my neighbours he is and ex Candian Airman he asked me if I would like to go to Gosport with him this weekend he said it wont cost you anything and I have a free ferry pass..
I told him I had been to Portsmouth on Wednesday but didnt feel well enough to go again for a while. he said when you feel well enough let me know. This nice man is 89 and has had cancer . he walks everywhere and plays bowls..
I thought that was nice of him to ask me.
