Evening all...
No flying today, I'm shattered from lots of walking so just going to update my finance spread sheet then I'm going to bed. Night :wave:Creeping back in for accountability after falling off the wagon in 2016.Need to get back to old style in modern ways, watching the pennies and getting stuff done!0 -

Evening everyone.
Been a long day at work. Because we eat with the clients and have to supervise them we dont get proper breaks. Although we do try to grab a cuppa and have 5 to ourselves if clients are settled. Did some baking for them today a cornbeef pie and it was nice to see them really enjoy it.
Will have to catch up with my flying tomorrow. Im ready for my bed.
Polka Hope you are ok after your fall and havent hurt yourself too much. Have the new neighbours settled down? A shame your playdate was cancelled.
Bonsibabe Glad to see you back. Wondered how you were getting on.
Vanilla Good to hear that Bo is continuing to improve.
Pooh Big hugs to you.
wmf Welcome
Pollybear big hugs for you too.
Holly Hugs for you and DS.
Sexymouse Sounds like its going to be hard to persuade your nan she may need to live elsewhere. Must be scary for you and your mum if she is forgetting things and leaving the gas on.0 -

SSL would love to post a pic of Soxy but photobucket seem to have lost my login - I know the details are right because I still have the original confirmation email. We chose her because we wanted a small dog (I'd never had one before) and wanted something manageable and they have a good reputation for being excellent companions. Love her to bits bless her, and she's as daft as a brush, has taken to sleeping in the plant pot outside the back door which luckily I hadnt repotted this year. She does a silly little dance when she wants something and always comes on the bed for a cuddle before we get up. I could happily recommend them, plus their hair is apparently more like a human and people tend to have less allergys to them.
Well I think cuppas on the cards then bed. Anyone else :coffee: :coffee: :coffee:
