    Morning All!

    Last night we decided to have an early night, and that the dog wasn't to sleep in our room.

    Let's us say that every passing cat and security alarm fated us (by that read me) to many trips out of bed to soothe a most rattled little dog until I gave in at 01:30 and let him on the bed.

    Many cups of tea will be required.

    Hi all. I had to laugh at Chicky's story about the deer. Sounds a bit like my little Wallaby. She has a bulging pouch so is similar to the bambi I guess.

    It's hard to e angry with them when we leave such temptations where they are available.

    have a good day all.

    Morning all. Struggling to feel awake - my bad habit of pressing the snooze alarm has crept back in. I actually feel better if I get up as soon as the alarm goes but pressing snooze is just too good. Why is it that you are at your most comfy, warm and relaxed just as you have to vacate the bed? Now I have snoozing kittens on my lap so I don't want to leave them to shower and dress...

    My garden and I live in South Wales.

    Who knew kittens had a shower before getting dressed! Lovelly day here, but Carol (BBC1) says it will all be gone by 10 and then the rain,Got to go to the "tip" need to go sooner rather than later, lots of stuff in open container, dont want it getting soggy.  Blood tests first at 9. means I will have to leave here by 8.30, to travel 2 miles, (main A22 Eastbourne to london road, rush hour!) assuming they CAN get some out today!!

    Don't worry NB - schools are on holiday so rush hour is much easier at the momentimage

    Deer are a constant presence Joyce - so have learned to accept nibbling - but not inside our specially constructed exclusion zone ?

    About to hop on a train ?- so will be noodling with you all a bit longer this morning ...

    Morning all/afties Pat - hope the washing stayed where it was meant to!

    No chance of getting any out here - ferdiddling down.Good for getting my patches of newly sown grass seed well watered in though.

    I felt the same this morning AuntyR. Slept really soundlyfor a change and felt drugged when the alarm went off image

    chicky - what a pain. They do so much damage. I had to laugh on Saturday coming home. There was a stag standing at the side of the road just on the open stretch near Rannoch Moor. All the traffic coming the other way was slowing down to gawp, and no doubt take photos. I wonder how many acccidents he caused! He looked like he was waiting for it to clear so he could cross over to the other side image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
