    Morning peepsimage

    Hope Mr Joyce is feeling better today, and not too unsettled by the experience.

    Today is the start of littlest Chicklet's one-a-day exam run.  Pretty intense.  Got everything crossed til Friday lunchtime image

    Guess which numpty left her lights on yesterday image. Finished work at 8.30, then had to wait an hour in the works car park to be "rescued" by the RAC.  Not my finest hour image

    Morning all.

    Easy to do, Chicky. I've done it twice, years ago when I was nursing. One time a nice ambulance driver started the car with his jump leads. Now I have a car that turns it's lights off.

    I was a numpty too last night. I left a gas ring on on the hob. Only the smallest one turned low, hard to see in the setting sun shining through the kitchen windows, but normally I check the position of the controls.

    We are off to the tip with a trailer load of rubbish. We went yesterday but it was shut, OH looked at the wrong website for opening hours.

    Good luck to littlest Chicklet.

    Good morning.   Hope OH is doing well Joyce.   Best wishes to Chicklet.  Well done Wonky.

    I have deposited Rasta doggy for her haircut.  Funny how she gets all luvvy when she thinks I'm abandoning her to her fate.   Bonzo has followed OH out to help him strim path thru the snake patch and Minstrel is having a cuddle on my lap.   

    I'm about to do a last coat of paint on wardrobe bits and the under side of the char seats and then a big tidy up and clean.   Lovely.

    Have a good one everyone.

    I've just had a hobble around the garden image it wasn't all just a lovely dream!!!  It really happened!!! image

    And now OH has set the sprinkler up for the beans, lettuces and the courgettes that Wonky planted for me ... he's watered the pots and the plants Wonky planted in the Sunny Corner and will top the pond up in a bit.  I'm back on the sofa with muesli and yoghurt image

    Lets see what's been going on .........

    Morning all, again. 

    Hubby has managed 11 hours sleep on 2 consecutive nights. ggrr. That's my cumulative total for the same nights.

    Dry and cloudy, but wind free this morning.

    Hi all.

    OH has completely ignored my demands to stay at home, she really is the most stubborn person I know, probably one of the reasons I love her.

    Hope the news is good Joyce.

    Good luck to Chicklet.

    Not feeling particularly motivated today, so may join Dove on the sofa and do some reading.
