    Morning everyone.  I love goats as well,  Dove.  I’ve never found them to be smelly Obelixx.  
    Lovely day here as well today.

  • Hi @chicky … he’s doing quite well thanks … the treatment seems to be slowing the tumours down … but he’s a bit low at the moment as he’s just heard that someone else on the same treatment has been told it’s now not working for her … which apparently can happen. Also he’s finding some of the side effects difficult. However he’s buoyed up by the news that his youngest daughter has just announced she and her husband are expecting their second baby. She had Hodgkins as a teenager and there was concern that babies wouldn’t happen for them because of her treatment, so a second is great news. 😊.

  • Morning folks,at least some good news eh,Dove. Well, confession time! I thought yesterday was Wednesday,so we set off for a Prairie garden 33 miles away which is closed Mondays and Tuesdays,have got the hang of the chatty sat nav woman on the phone. She is giving instructions, showing us driving down the road. Hubby driving. She says "It might not be open today" I said huh I rang and checked,it message said "open 1pm on Wednesday". Got to the gate,let hubby hear the message. Can't understand it,then look at phone it's Tuesday!!!!

  • Morning everyone,  another very warm night,  so rather fitful sleep.  Well Regent's pk theatre was good,  it was very odd being with all those people, but we figured as it was open air it was safer than being inside.  It was a production of Carousel,  a bit modern with some of the music but good all the same.
    @Nanny Beach yes we've been loosing track of the days too at times.

    @Nanny Beach - you are not alone in getting your days mixed up!  I'm OK this week as I have a dental appointment this morning which I have been counting down the days too - my gums are inflamed and I think I might need antibiotics.  
    Hope to get out in the garden afterwards.  OH gave it a good watering last night and I want to plant out some Monardas that have been waiting for a few days.  I might have more plants after Sunday's Garden Market!

    @didyw ... One of the tablets I take at bedtime has the days of the week on the foil strip, so I can check what day it's been  ;)

    Will there be bulbs (daffs/narc and crocus) at your Plant Fair do you know?

    Some of the sellers will have bulbs I think Dove, but not sure what varieties!

    You are not alone, my 70th birthday present, chosen by me, was a new wristwatch with the day and the date in large enough letters for me to see without my reading glasses on! I also have a digital clock on the kitchen worktop, which has the day and date on. Has proven invaluable.
