	Hasn't it been hot? I lay naked on top of the bed clothes last night with the window partially open. Didn't get to sleep until near 2 am then was up twice during the night. Mid morning it was like an oven in my car,even with a widow down. Ive a memory from childhood of pinching a jar of lemon curd off the table and eating it from the jar while hid behind the sofa.

	Home alone !!!! Got showered and shaved this morning, and Ros decided she would do the Tesc# run.,rather than leave it till tomorrow I was in shorts, and went to go and get dressed and felt a bit iffy. So she went on her own, I sat in the garden with my book. She came back about 1.30pm and had to be at one of the Scouts fund raising meetings at 1.30pm !!!! So she unloaded the car and dashed off. I managed to put everything away. I have sat and read the paper, so now going back in the garden for afternoon sun and read. I bet I drop off out there, It's so nice and warm. BBL

When Mum used to buy them I always wanted the Blackcurrant one ,and one always left until last was the yellow one.No-one ever seemed to want that one lol Frank you have been spoiled .That massager sounds wonderful.We will all be queuing up for a go ;-)You have a fantastic day for your anniversary.Perfect! I think I am going to take my book into the garden and have a little read while I drink my coffee.

	Going in the garden for a while now as I have some busy lizzies to put in the big planter and some non stop begonias for another one. Also have to clear out the two large urns and plant those. <3

	Been baking 2 quiches and some jam tarts to finish the pastry off. Just like mum used to do. I liked jam tarts when I was small and always got to play with the tiny bit of pastry left over, until it looks grey and then mum would bake it and either the dog or the birds got that.

	Morning All, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to <3 <3FRANK AND ROS <3 <3 I want your new massager Frank!! lol :-D :-D It sounds great and what a good idea. I bet Ros was surprised to see those earrings among the caramels and all the flowers. A takeaway sounds brilliant and you can probably eat outside with it being a lovely day. Mel, it is amazing what places are tucked out of view isn't it. I thought the man didn't strike you as being that rich, but he obviously is!! I thought about the heating bills when I saw that huge hall!! I do hope his claim for compensation due to the mining succeeds as he will be able to right the damage to the house and then restore it.

	Morning Playmates. Thanks for your good wishes. I had a HOMEDICS Foldable SHIATSU Massager from Ros, It does full back, top back and lower back with a heater. Tried it earlier, seems very strong massage, you can only use it for fiftheen minutes a time. I hope it will help with my aches and pains. I bought Ros two pairs of ear rings, hidden inside a very large bag of ICED CARAMELS. She loves them( the caramels) but we can't find a shop that sells them. I got these on line from DANDY CANDY. so know where to get then in future. We were just sitting chatting away, the door bell rang, and she said that will be my face powder. Was she surprised when a massive display of flowers arrived. She's now hunting around to find more vases. She said instead of going out tonight ,why don't we get a nice Takeaway. She can decide later what she wants. What a lovely morning it is today, more breeze than yesterday but only little white clouds.

We have got the chap here emptying our old Septic Tank, then it has to be filled with rubble and sealed, it's done 74 years, so can't be bad!! Our new system is up and running well, so at least that is that problem done and dusted! Must mow the grass today and do washing!! 10.05 am

	Morning All, Just did a huge post and pressed a wrong key somewhere and lost the lot!! .•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.? Happy Anniversary Frank and Ros .•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.?.•::•.? Hope you have a really good day XX Had a friend come yesterday to sort some things of mums estate. We sat in the garden and did it all and the breeze blew all the papers around so we had to weigh everything down. Then had to go to Holworthy in the afternoon for a bit of shopping and to the solicitors with some papers. Another of the visiting female pheasents came down the garden this morning with 10 chicks. OH saw her breifly yesterday while I was out. He has taken some picks by holding the camera out of the kitchen window. Ann I saw that house thingy on replay last night. That marble room 60' X 60' and 40' high was out of this world. The lovely pattern on the floor in the centre circle with all those leaf patterns was great. What a responsibility and I wonder how much his council tax is with 300 odd rooms????? :-S

	The three sided casket with the rotating cross is what I recall on awakening,that and Carrington. The bit of dream before I awike may have caused me to sweat. Seemed highly sybolic at the time.
