    Very sad about Dolores O'Riordan. I listen to The Cranberries a lot and Bow has also got into them recently. I would have liked to go to a concert with her. My favourite song is Zombie, but here's another very well known one: https://youtu.be/Zz-DJr1Qs54 . Sorry, this has really shocked me. Maybe because she was close to my age, with kids not much older.

    Had a good revision day, with the rain lashing against the windows. Downloaded lots of past papers, looked at them, freaked out! But all will be well, just need to keep at it.

    Hi Dove, I tried to send a message earlier and was advised I didn’t have access. This is to Try it out.

    Dinner interrupted my posting.

    Dove I am SO impressed with you gaining your Masters. You must have worked very hard. Congratulations.

    We had an unwelcome visitor this morning. I opened the back door to go to my veggie patch and spotted a Brown Snake heading in that direction.

    i yelled SNAKE, Hubby raced out with the rifle, and dealt with it. Phew. Unfortunately, I’ve lost interest in giving my plants a drink today. They’ll have to manage on their own. (I’m Spooked)
