    Grey, wet, windy.

    Church parade first thing and then we will crack on with house work. We've almost got the lounge new wiring in place.

    Are you building a snowman today Dove? image

    Pat - the other side of the coin with the heat and fires image

    Do you think doc will be getting breakfast in bed today.....perhaps that's a bridge too far....image

    Keep it up Clari - you'll soon get big changes now  image

    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    Ooh - I forgot. Dove - there's someone building sleeper raised beds. I said you might be able to advise and maybe some pics too?  image

    Unless you're busy doing this of course.....

    There was quite a bit more than a 'dicht' Joyce - I was trying to be funny! Up to my little bits and bobs in places....when I picked the wrong spot....image

    Hope you can manage a bit more to eat today image

    Morning all, afternoon Pat. The cat stories are making me laugh too! My brothers cat used to stay with me when he was away on holiday Pat. The cat did the same thing, went around the house making sure his favorite things and places were all still there!

    Obelixx, the stories of your kittens escapades should be recorded, they sound much more entertaining than anything on tv!

    Joyce, I'm so sorry you've been made to feel rotten by this bug! Swift recovery to you!

    Probably best stay indoors in the warm, its really not nice out! Hope your on the mend soon!

    Dove, the jumpers are fantastic! Jumper envy is rife! All that see, want one too! image and Flatters would like a onesie please...don't forget the tail hole! image

    All this talk of horrid weather, I've put on the purple dressing gown and the heating and the kettle and got back into bed!

    Fairy, wrap up if your out there today! Its supposed to be a chilly one today! I'm still planning to go and break things with a sledghammer in the shed and I'm sure it wont stop you sticking your 'Fairy was ere' flag on the top of some snow capped height somewhere! Keep warm! image

    Have a lovely day all x

  • Morning all!

    Blowing the Yorkshire equivalent of a hoolie this morning, so next door's cats are Not Amused at being evicted from their nice warm living room after breakfast.  I'll let them in again if the promised snow arrives at 11am - this is not well timed for son and DIL, who were hoping to go sledging this morning, and have to return home this afternoon.  

    ...I've just taken pity on the moggy mewing piteously under the window as we have horizontal snow at present  image  

    Great!  Tech-savvy visitors have shown me how to use Google Photos on my phone, so I can post them on here more easily...  image

    Just seen footage of those fires, Pat - really awful.  Keep safe!

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