  • Verdun, when we come down in September you, me and OH can move them on and then everyone can move in - it sounds as if Bekkie has enough beddfing for everybody. image

  • Hello everyone!  image

    I've had a quick skim over the last few pages to see what you've been up to, over the weekend.  Sorry so many of you are suffering winter lurgies - we need MORE SUN.  I've put in an order for it but we still seem to be having sleet and hail...  Hope you all start feeling better soon.

    There were daffodils out in Pembrokeshire, which was a lovely surprise - I'd forgotten how much warmer it would be down there.  The singing was hard work but the break was nice.  The cat hasn't forgiven us for going, but maybe it won't take too long...

    Bekkie, thanks so much for the SAS spray recommendation!  I've had to be a bit careful where I put it in the house, as it's brownish and a bit sticky.  I sprayed behind the kick boards under the kitchen cupboards, and wiped a thin coating on the floor round the cat's tray,  It really seems to have done the trick so far, with no sign of slugs in the kitchen!  imageimageimage  Spraying the undersides of this year's cell trays seems like a great idea too.

    Busy day today catching up with Mum, shopping, washing, HW, paperwork etc.  Really need to cut back my rose hedge, which went wild last year - maybe I'll start tomorrow, if it's not too sleety. 

    Better wash up...  Night all!

    Since 2019 I've lived in east Clare, in the west of Ireland.

    Dove: I'm looking forward to finding out what they are when they flower. Whatever they are they're shooting up! I'd be so proud of myself.... had I remembered I had planted them! image

     

    Verdun. I had my overnight bag all ready to go! 16 boxes of jaffa cakes, a bottle of rum, and a clean pair of pants. What am I going to do now!?

  • Put them in the car boot until September Clari - OH and I are going down then to help Verdun to claim back his castle image

    Evening all. Just popping in before bedtime. It's been lovely reading your get well wishes. Think the antibiotics are starting to improve things, cough is heaps better and chest hardly hurts any more.

    Daughter and 2 grandchildren arrived yesterday, but they wanted to leave me some peace for a sleep so they went and met other grandmother in local town. She lives in Bordeaux and it was 1 1/2 hours drive for her, which was good of her. They went out to lunch, she bought the children (5 and 3) some new clothes, and went to a playground.

    Other daughter was coming tomorrow with 3 grandsons, but oldest (9) has a cold and his temperature has suddenly shot up.
