Friday. All sorts of fun getting the poota to behave this morning. Being all stroppy, so it was. Cloudy again this morning, still none of the rain we were promised. Not that I'm complaining you...
Have recently moved to this house and despite the very hot weather and no rain here in SE England my front garden lawn is very green. I havn't cut it in the 3 weeks I have been here and certainly have...
Thursday. There was an orange moon here during the night, it looked lovely. Overcast again this morning. We did see the sun yesterday eventually. Out for most of the day today, Stroud, Yate and...
Does anyone ever feel this way? Bed, work, eat, sleep every working day. Then you see people at the weekend doing boring stuff like mowing their lawns, washing the car, DIY, how exciting. Then its...
Given the other thread I thought I'd post this. Too late to do owt now, but when OH and her siblings visited the solicitor to discuss getting probate, the first words from the solicitor were (knowing...
Wednesday. Cloudy again this morning, just the odd ragged hole along the skyline. I hope it turns out like yesterday. A wee drop of rain wouldn't go amiss though. Not a lot to do today, I might have a...
Tuesday. I've just had a wonderful hour and a half getting me poota to play nicely. Being all petulant and willful, so it was. Me big 'ammer soon made it behave! :o} The blue privacy settings doodah...

Just watching a programme about Roy Orbison. It really took me back as I loved him. There was music and chat from his family. One of his sons is so like him. I saw Roy about 3 times over the years,...
Now it is Sunday! It's going to be another hot day. Some faffing about in the back garden today methinks. It could do with some tidying up. Maybe not, I shall see. A bit of Tesco shoplifting first....
Sunday. Overcast again. We had some rain yesterday, just enough to make watering unnecessary. It's warmer again this morning. Everything a absolutely still, quite pleasent out, the view across the...
Friday. A lot cooler this morning. Been for a wee stroll while the weather is good. all the wildlife are tucked up in bed. Sensible animals! I've no idea what is going to occur today. Might take some...
Thursday. High cloud this morning, a bit cooler too. We are assured it will be another hot one though. Suits me. :o} I've been for a wee stroll down the lane, i never tire of the beautiful view across...
