Punk I do hope you feeling stronger both physically and mentally. Was grieved to hear you so low.
Dove , lots of fluids and rest feel better soon
Hosta, we All Remember so please take ear plugs sun screen and enjoy your hollibags
fairy, you stuck up a hill somewhere?
Chicky this holiday is going so fast! So glad you seeing so much, it's so vast a continent isnt it?
Pat maybe put the phone of silent during the night?
am on the train heading back up to Penrith I really do breathe easier when I see the fields have had a super weekend but admit to being pretty tired I shared with 5 year old and could she wiggle! we all met up at Kew yesterday and I thought it super even tho it felt as it it was all under construction for Kew Christmas. I think I will give the family memberships for gifts this year. The autumn colours were stunning. Even leaves still on trees!

Dove....Jana was great ....49 is no age at all ....she was loved by all in the game....
Clari.....love the roots .....so rich .....
Hosta, I seem to remember you guys are off to The Gambia ....have a gud'n you deserve it
MIL has finally left with the five cats .....lots of stains .....but great veggie caviar. which will be stored for the winter.....nothing goes to waste
That looks like xmas pudding with spaghetti on top. It'll never catch on. Reggie looks worn out.
it has taken us all day to take hubbys books to the accountant, and his ipad magic keyboard back to the supplier. Its not being very magic, won't talk to the ipad. Hotel chocolat for a few xmas pressies and to stock up on the special hot choc with clementine. Yum. We called in at the xmas tree place, but the size we want is not in yet. Last year we were too late, and ended up dragging the poor old plastic one out of the attic. It went in the bin after xmas. Tomorrow we are off to Chatsworth Farm shop. We have a fillet of beef for xmas day, then Turkey, Pork etc on boxing day with the other 18 in the family.
Lovely afternoon at patchwork. About 20 ladies noisily yattering and crocheting a Japanese pan scrub thingy from wool with what looked like tinsel in the yarn. Why? 4 sensible ones quietly getting on with patchwork - well, 3 plus me making templates for felt applique Xmas tree decs.
No Xmas shopping at all here yet. We both have birthdays coming up and then we'll think about Xmas and doing cards. We will, however, be keeping an eye out for decent tree as we don't yet know who stocks them. Last year's was very small as we had two teeny kittens and didn't want a calamity.
Reggie looks shattered Clari. Ours were like that after a long run on the beach with OH yesterday.

Been shopping. Now have pressies for 7 grandchildren, 4 to go but 2 of those I will have to order from Amazon.
Off to Norfolk tomorrow. Sorry about your cold, Dove, mine is almost gone apart from the usual residual cough.
Successful shopping Busy
Glad you enjoyed your London trip LP. Lovely for you to see all the family together
Relatives were stopping at Inveraray on way home.....evidently there is an excellent butcher there who makes superb steak pies.
Dove, hope you feel better soon.
Five mile stroll with the dog where we met up with many other dogs.
I think he's contented!
There's a whole lot of soil but some roots insist on never venturing.
Thanks folks ... the cold's just lurking ... a bit sneezy and an occasional cough but not as drippy as I was first thing.
BL, have a good journey
