    Hi all

    I spoke with Hosta yesterday and he is very down  [ not surprising ], I said everyone on here was rooting for him.
    Met NDN on the drive this morning, whilst retrieving our bin, got a mouthful of abuse about calling the police, so very calmly for me, I just said I was looking forward to doing it again, and asked whether getting into another dispute, was a good way of helping him sell his house.

    Well done @punkdoc ... retain your place up there on the moral high ground (it’ll get right up his nose 😂). 
    Love to @Hostafan1 if he peeks in ... no pressure 🤗

    I went out for a walk in the snow the other day, a large Pashmina wrapped around my head and face,  mainly because I have a niggling tooth,   so now I, too am knitting a hat. 
    Whether I’ll wear or not is another thing. 

    Meant to add @punkdoc. Keep your cool with the NDN,  seems you’re  upsetting him more like that than openly ranting.

    It's very hard to keep your cool with these morons isn't it @punkdoc, you did and said the right thing, that will get up his nose for sure. I take it there is no news of a sale on his house?
    It's a beautiful cold sunny day here - too cold to do anything outside except fill the bird feeders. I have to wear a scarf wrapped round my face and nose at the moment outside as the cold and then coming back in to heat sets my nosebleeds off, goodness knows when I can get that sorted.

    It's perishing here and grey and still.  Definitely a hibernating day and probably most f the week.   That's OK as I have a frock to sew.  Black pudding and pork meatballs or burgers for dinner here with sweet potato wedges and steamed broccoli.   Comfort food.

    Keeping calm will definitely irritate your NDN @punkdoc.  Big hugs to @Hostafan1.  I hope he knows there are support networks out there for him, both local and national.

    I can't wear woolly hats @Dovefromabove.  They slide right off so coats and jackets with hoods for me, if it's wet, and big scarves.  Keeping my neck and shoulders warm means I can do without hats.  I now sew the ends of big fabric scarves to make a tube I can loop over me a couple of times - means they stay in place leaving my hands free to manage dogs, bag, shopping, whatever both indoors and outdoors.

    Good luck @Busy-Lizzie.  It's going to be a hard week but will be worth it.   The start of a whole new adventure.

    I am now trapped on the sofa between two snuggled dogs.   Plenty of cuddles to share with anyone who needs one.   Stay safe, and your loved ones too.

    Good freezing morning!  -5°C at 7am down here.  Silver beet and spinach white and droopy but a blue sky with a few powder puff clouds by 10am.  Beheaded the grasses (graminées) but trip to horse yard for manure cancelled.  Fish for lunch with mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes and the last of the cabbage from the garden. (Only grew 2 - or only 2 grew!)  A high of 5°C expected.  No wind thank goodness!  Perfect dog walking weather.
    Have a pleasant day.

    I’m trapped on the sofa between two grandsons but the cuddles are all mine. We’ve just put the dinosaurs to bed as they are tired. Unfortunately when they are awake they roar loudly, stomp about and shake their heads. So I’m glad they are asleep while the boys watch paw patrol

    Enjoy your cuddles @Yviestevie.  The dogs woke up, played with their toy pigs - as noisy as dinosaurs - and have now flopped again.  I've kicked Possum off her sofa so she can have a sewing lesson.
