Monday. The sun is coming up. The washing can go on the line. wonderful!
We had dinner indoors yesterday. It looked clear, so I thought I'd set up outside. I'd put the table in place about 8 feet from the kitchen door. It started to rain, by the time I'd covered that 8 feet I was soaked. Saying something uncomplimentary about the weather gods, I dried off and got changed. However we had a great evening and much quality control was undertaken, (I know, but it has to be done doesn't it!)
They went home at about 11 after helping me to clear up.
Today I have a friend coming up from Weston-super-Mare. It should be fun as she's as mad as a box of frogs! She's been a good friend for many years.
Quite a racket from the badger population this morning. I got close enough to see that a punch up was going on, i don't know what it was about, but but neither of them was giving any quarter. It went on for some time until they were both too knackered to carry on I think. Both had some serious looking injuries. I hope they get over it.
Foxy was waiting behind the shed as I was a bit late putting supper out. As soon as I shut the door he was on it like a missile. About 20 minutes later tiggy was in for his.
Morning boarty xx
*** rain eh? At least you still had a lovely time.
Good old animal kingdom . I've never seen a live badger. I've only ever seen dead ones at the side of the road. Very sad.
How is foxy these days? still looking bedraggled?
Just another quick visit. I'm off out now for a 5 mile tramp across the Downs. (The tramp doesn't seem to mind!!)
Morning to all when you eventually surface.
Have a lovely day folks.
xx
Morning all
It's a lovely morning here too which is just as well as I'm back to work today after a week off
Slept through from 10.30 last night - first time in a long time that's happened
I usually wake about 2 ish for a couple of hours
Seems I might have broken that pattern
Bought a new settee from eBay yesterday !
Hope it's ok - it says it's new!
Only really buy seeds and stuff like that so we will have to see
Have a lovely day everyone
Just caught me before I disappeared out the door.
I'm fine thanks boaty, just the usual old aches pains etc. I ain't no spring chicken that's for sure. Just an old broiler.
Morning ric xx
I'll be in the same boat soon Ric - looking for a sofa on ebay as the hound has chewed the current ones arms - Hope it turns out to be a nice one for you xx
hi wbm n jan n ric
a wee bit damp here - a few downpours y'day too for us wbm
liked watching the tour de Yorkshire - for the scenery, more than ,for the racing
Boaty, hound has been brought up with cuddly toys to play with - big mistake on our part - now he thinks the sofa is a big cuddly toy! Ah, well you live and learn... xx
"...That there hound sounds like a right nutter..." - yep, he fits right in with this house lol. He's very serene really, just likes to investigate everything.
Glad your dinner went well Boaty.
Ric, do you get to see any of the shows for free?
Air show was great yesterday, got a lovely bit of sunburn even though it was cloudy, Vulcan was beautiful and there was a Swiss F-18 that made us all go deaf for a while lol
