Oh blimey that made me tired just reading it ;-). We have been busy with some overdue DIY jobs and still have loads of paint freshening up to do.

A busy few days, LG. M had a call from the solicitors on Thursday to ask if the buyers could complete and move in this Friday!! It wasn't expected for another month, so R cleared the garage out and turned up my place on his way to the tip to see if I had anything that needed to go. I got rid of a few bits and bobs but took more in out of the back of his vehicle :-D :-D Everything was very dirty through years of storage. but I got some terracotta ornaments for the garden and a hose pipe. I refused loads of terracotta pots.that I would have liked, but they all needed a damn good clean and then there would be a cost in filling them all and finding somewhere to put them! I daren't put much out at the front in case it gets pinched :-|

The whole of Saturday was thrown into complete disarray as I was going to get the bungalow polished and vacuumed. I spent most of the day cleaning stuff and getting sorted.

R said while he was at the tip two women asked if he was dumping all the pots and they took them.

I was going to catch up with some work yesterday, then in the afternoon C phoned and asked me to go down as she had bought in afternoon tea for R&M as it is their 30th anniversary tomorrow and she had ordered too much!! That was the rest of the afternoon gone.

Tomorrow I have to go down after work and take their present, but won't hang around for long as R will still be working until about 7pn. I also have a chiropody appointment tomorrow lunchtime and have to be back for a zoom meeting at 2pm. Its all a bit hectic at the moment.

If the solicitor can't sort out an issue with the ground rent on A;s flat by Friday he will have to stay in the local TraveLodge for a few days until they can complete the purchase. It's a good job he has got rid of most of the stuff in the house. There is only really his bed, the sofa and armchair that are large items to move. He has got rid of everything of his Mum's apart from some of her personal photos, memorabilia etc., so an easy move. R is laughing as he is working on Friday so can't help!!

On top of all that, I am still having bad nights with my shoulder and just falling asleep in an evening.

I don't understand why councils sub those sorts of jobs out, it must be more expensive in the long run.
I had a very nice time with my brother, it's well over a year since I last saw him. My hair is more Anne Lennox than Ken Dodd now also. :-D

Morning, my daughter has a really swollen arm from her 2nd jab on Saturday. The nurse who did it must have bee playing darts even though it was explained that she bruises easily with the strong meds she is on.
How lovely to see your brother, enjoy your visit.
