    Hello all image

    Thanks Pdoc image hand's just tingly now.  I think I'll survive image  I left a load of gardening stuff lying about - thank goodness OH was at home to clear up after me.

    We're enjoying the Naked Choir too Hosta image

    They are very good image

    I sang in choirs from school age until my forties.  I used to work for the Norfolk & Norwich Festival and the King of Hearts Early Music Centre in Norwich at the time Gareth Malone was at the UEA and was a member of the UEA choir - they were very involved in both the festival and the King of Hearts, performing for both  - he's always looked very familiar - I'm sure our paths must've crossed.  image

  • That's  the same spray etc we got Dove. Hope its easing now, lucky you got your rings off in time.

    Evening all. Dinner's been had - Italian hamburgers. That's burgers in a griddled ciabatta instead of a roll...with fresh basil. I can thoroughly recommend it!  image

    Hope the hand's a bit better tonight Dove. Did you milk it and get OH to do dinner...image

    'Choral Stimulation' - Trust the Glesgae Uni students to lower the tone, eh Hosta? image

    Oldest fairylet was in the RSNO training choir when she was a nipper. How he (Christopher Bell) got a bunch of 8 to 10 year olds making that fabulous sound within a matter of weeks was nothing short of miraculous.

    Great news DD - hope he's well on the road to recovery now image

    Just read Jo's news about her friend too - how sad. I'd already decided last week to do next year's walk for the British Heart Foundation. Who knows what's waiting round the corner for us...image

    OH did volunteer Fg, but I'd prepped most of it already so it was straightforward and he always washes up.

    I'm ready for a doze now ............ image

    Sweet dreams everyone - see you in the morning ...

    Evening all, image

    Dove.....you poor thing! I think a day off is in order!....sofa...TV....cake image

    Lesley, I'm on washload number 4 now and there doesn't look like there's a dent in the amount of laundry to be done at all! But Runny can smell the soapsuds from hers so it must be getting clean!

    Fairy, dinner sounds yummy! Think I may have to try that one! image

    Have a good evening all image

  • Evening all,

    Had a nice afternoon in the garden, feel like I am making some progress again. OH came home and then went for an afternoon snooze. Seems silly but he said he feels exhausted despite spending last 5 days in bed - nowhere quite like your own bed though is there. image

    Another last minute guest arrived from Marseille, very smart business man in a lovely car, but extremely nice, made himself at home put on his track suit and sat watching tv with a beer, so nice to see people feeling relaxed.image

    Luckily we have 2 tv's so I won't miss River. I watched it on iplayer the other night and quite liked it, had a nice quirky element to it. Btw Bizzie Lizzie, we get iplayer by logging onto OH's computer in his office in England (don't ask me how), it works great for us. image

    I'm recording River as I watch Lewis - I'm secretly in love with Lawrence Fox, even though I'm old enough to be his mother ... image

    He'll feel exhausted DD. It's a petty big trauma to deal with, but as you say, nothing like being in your own bed and own surroundings image

    Hope the weather stays fine to get that washing out WW. Have you erected a washing line along the entire road to fit it all in? image

    The burgers were very good - griddling the ciabatta made all the difference! It was like having meaty bruschetta  image
