Afternoon everyone. Well done Ante on your home Vet duties. I am sure you (and Rose) will feel more settled when this week is over. I am bracing myself for taking Lily to the Vet's on Friday too. When I was bringing the cloth things is yesterday she took one look at me folding up the white sheet and she fled upstairs. So that proves cats can remember things especially when it involves the slave surrounding her with a towel to get her in the pet carrier.
Chive, I have been to see the rellies today. With the imminent arrival of their 3rd grandchild, my brother and sis-in-law are getting very excited. You have got a lovely afternoon in prospect haven't you? I bet your colleague will be absolutely delighted. Lots of hot gossip I'm sure. Have a lovely time.
Ruby, I hope that you are resting today after your sleepless night.
Biglad, it was drizzling all the way up the M6 on my return journey but the sun is shining now. I'm not sure that there is too much warmth in it though.

It's warm enough for me @Ladybird4. I even had to remove a layer when I was outside
I haven't summoned up the enthusiasm to start on anything big today - I'll procrastinate a bit longer on those projects. I've thinned out the strawberry/rhubarb border though. It got a bit crowded in there last year. Shovelled a few buckets of homemade compost out of the bottom of the dalek for use as a mulch with the added bonus of levelling up a couple of sunken areas. The dalek was full to the brim, so it can now drop down to free up some more space at the top
Ante well done for giving Rose her antibiotic injection much better than trying to give her tablets. Chive have a lovely time. Enjoy your day. Hazel I’m sorry to hear your other granddaughter has caught covid. I hope soon in the coming days she will have a negative test and you can see her again soon. Lily I slept for a few hours. LB good news awaited for your brother and sister in law with regard to the arrival of their third grandchild such a special event.
I hope you get to see your granddaughters before too long Hazel.
I went to Son 2 today, to have a shower, hair wash and lunch. The shower was bliss. It's new and has a choice of heads and sprays. The overhead one is huge. I'll change my bedding this afternoon.
Hope a successful plumber comes tomorrow.

Sorry to hear about your other granddaughter Hazel. She might just be lucky and sail through it.
Busy, you must have felt so relieved when you were able to get to your son's for a super shower. Hope your plumbing problems get sorted soon.
RosieBB, I'm glad you managed to catch some shut eye this afternoon.
Bestie and I have received emails this p.m. from one of the food bank coordinators asking if we can go and help out this Thursday as they are short of helpers. We have said that we will go.

Good morning all. Hazel I hope your granddaughter will feel better in the next few days and contact can be made. Chive it sounds like you had a lovely time. I’m glad all went well. Busy it will have been lovely to have a shower, thank goodness for family. LB it’s good of you and bestie to help out again at the food bank. You have become important members of the team enabling people to have assistance. I’ve had a couple of hours sleep and have been massaging Alfie’s throat but he’s eating now and has been asleep on my lap. Wishing everyone a good day.
