    Awww 😢 

    We kept rabbits when @WonkyWomble was wee ... she had one called Mouse that she used to smuggle up to bed with her. Later she had one called Happy ... he was the only buck rabbit ... we had several does and used to breed them ... hence his name. 

    Definitely a soil improver 👍

    We originally got two females with no intention to breed until we realised Michaela was Mick! Gave all bar one of the consequent babies away but had to segregate all three because they either wanted to fight or make whoopee! The house will be quieter without the sound of his water bottle rattling whilst he guzzled. I'll be without my gardening companion as well.  :'(

    Happy  :)

    I sincerely hope there's a U turn on this A levels results business.  Some very unfair decisions being made.  If they can't change it I hope it does come back to bite the pirrocks involved.

    I saw this posted on FB today - unfairness of a different sort but how many voters will notice?

    He’s trying to cover his back ... think the area between his shoulder blades may be prickling ...

    Maybe if his back got covered with a target?

    Hope the new quarantine rules don't cause @Busy-Lizzie any more problems. Looks like we have world beating "make it up as we go along" politicians and policies. :/

    I was thinking that too @Busy-Lizzie .... hope you are staying put for a bit.

    We’ve been told there’s rain coming and a lot of clouds have been moving closer all day, but no wet stuff yet.   it sounds as though you are getting our share.🙄

    Good morning all 😊 ☕️ 

    No rain here yet @Pat E , but it looks as though we’re getting our storms and downpours this afternoon ... probably just as OH is cycling home from work. 

    I’ve been trialling a new method of making our sourdough, with an overnight rise ... so that’s meant that as soon as I woke this morning it needed a bit of attention ... so I’ve done that and now it’s proving for another 45 mins or so and will then go in the oven. I’ve also had a barefoot wander around the garden in my pjs and sat in my quiet corner with a coffee and admired the Cosmos Cranberry Clicks. 

    Now I’m back in bed ... OH is just surfacing ... 
    i dreamt that he’d got up and done the bread for me ... and hung it all on the line 😲 🤣
