    Red Deer!!! And I thought we had it bad with roe and muntjac. Saw our roe staring forlornly at the new veg patch Stalag fencing this morning.Ā  A couple of photos of her yesterday before she helpfully pruned the low level shoots on the house grapevine.

    It is only recently we started getting them in the garden. They used to be quite happy up on the moor, but the numbers are growing, nobody is culling them, so they are moving down off the tops.

    oh my word - Sainsbugs this morning was a different experience. Ā No queueing to get in, no respectfully waiting whilst people make their choices and move on. Ā Forget about 2 metres - I was actually physically bumped into twice. Ā People chatting in the aisles about how lovely it is to be back to normal. Ā I have a feeling our newly granted freedoms will be very short lived ā˜¹ļø

    Too many to name @Fairygirl saw him live a few years back (it was when Obama was running for president) and he was amazing, one of the best gigs I have ever been to.

    That makes me glad I've got another delivery booked for Friday @chicky.

    On another note, does anybody know whether motorway services are open and more importantly, are their loos?Ā  Both my children live far from us, one 70 miles and one abt 120 so I can't meet either of them halfway say, without needing a loo at some stage.Ā  Tricky!

    I thought it was just us @chicky we had exactly the sameĀ  experience, I thought it was good at first seemed quieter but like you felt very uneasy by the end, I know we "bend" the rules by both still going but it's just more practical and quicker, I can get all the things OH can't reach as they are too high, or too far back on the shelves, she has the lists & makes sure we get everything. We are only going every 2 weeks so every trip counts.Ā 
    Liri- Pillow I already have a memory foam one (I am a side sleeper too) It was good at first but seems to work less well now.

    @chicky -my daughter is fed up with people constantly pushing past her to reach stuff, when she's marking down products. I know other staff feel the same, yet they have to put up with these rude people day in day out, and with no protection.Ā 
    Selfish, self centred, self absorbed. No change there then... :/

    @Yviestevie - they've been playing stuff on the radio today, and I was hard pushed to pick my favourite SW song. Gun to my headĀ  - it would be Lately.
    Or Higher Ground.
    Or As.Ā 
    Or Very Superstitious
    Or.....aaghh - it's impossible!Ā  :D
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



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