One full strength with a dash of milk on its way. There's a few sachets of sugar if you want it sweetened - less messy than the bag and very handy to take out with a flask! :-D

Not sure what we'll do today - there is some ironing lurking around and OH is working up to refinishing a table top. He also muttered about going for a walk in the country.

As we both woke up earlier than we prefer, we may end up snoozing later on

that was lovely DET well i have got upstairs hoovered it is still raining though so will have to see how it goes later

I have hit Gold DET you remeber that inscription i found in that bible Gannell or similar
well he was a Reverend HC Gannell born 1874 in Northumberland The date 1906 is the year he was sailing away to Quebec However he is back in the UK in 1911 as he married in 1908 so what is significant about the bible were they friends !!!! who with and why did he sail away lol

Afternoon all. just a very quick peek in until later as I have to go and get ready for Rainbows. Hope all is well <3

Evening everyone.

A quick visit for now, as two ex colleagues are coming tonight for a takeaway and some pink water :-D :-D They won't be staying late, so hopefully will be back on later.

One of them is my best friend, so it will be good to see her for more than a quick coffee in my lunch break :-) :-)

Well done on the digging, Maz!! Shameful reputation that your family has, lol!! :-D :-D

DET, did you both get your snooze or your walk? Either would have been good, I think, unless it was raining of course :-) :-)

Apart from a quick shower this morning the rain held off until 3.30ish, so the hedge has been cut thankfully. Looks much better now :-)

Is everyone in hiding again :-D :-D :-D

Morning all – Hope you enjoyed time with your friends YG, with more laughter than tears.

No, we neither went out, nor had a snooze; I got stuck into the ironing in front of a pre-recorded TV programme while OH did a bit of DIY. PC came round to return some tools after which it was time to start dinner!

The neighbour and her daughter came round to thank us for the flowers and card – the daughter was dropping heavy hints to her mum that she ought to allow us to take her to her own hospital appointment next week. Although the neighbour is capable of getting herself there, there is the suggestion that she may need support if her check-up isn’t as ‘clear’ as is hoped. Daughter now has our phone number (even though she thought she remembered it from donkey’s years ago) in case she thinks that Mum needs a hand with moving heavy things or small DIY jobs.

Hope the rain didn’t curtail the Rainbows outdoor activities LG, and that it is dry for this evening.

DET morning all am sat here with washed wet floors drying .
plan is to pop over my corner cheap shop to get some food I was sure we had more than we had in but when i am busy at work A eats it without telling me lol

Morning Maz - Men, eh?? :-D

Have you thought of a white board hung in the kitchen? Now that OH is at home all the time and helps with the cooking, we find it useful to jot down items we've used/run out of. At the moment it only has Potatoes and Cucumber - hardly worth going shopping yet :-D

DET we have a board up lol the art is using it lol

Just letting you all know no change . Catch you later I am off to the woods with the Brownies and the Mini Gooners in tow. Wish me luck ;-) ;-) :-D

Thank you for letting us know, LG. Enjoy Brownies and good luck :-D :-D
