& Only counting working days, so it is shorter.
See SPARRA is chasing the birds. and shoeing off the cats.
Aussies put to rest. He he he he he he he he he he he he he he.now all we need to do is singe the King of Spaons beard. The dirty .... Wanting to charge a tax to enter Spain. Note, as Soain proffered assistance to the junta, no knowing Spanish items have been sourced. Just slip off e accelerator when I have overtaken a Seat car.
Just read the burger that was built in the lab. Wonder how bearded of Totnes will cope knowing that, just like his living fungi, quoin is also grown this way.
Now that science can feed the world, just wait for the objectors to say why it should not! Now, instead of a jumped up rock star exploiting people's pocket, the realisation of this is here.
Science can feed the world. How fantastic is that.

1. Lie in til 8am, then up to another lovely morning
2. Visited a friend for a cuppa this morning, walked round her beautiful acres of garden with its fruit cages, neat rows of veg, original Victorian greenhouse and admired her specimen shrubs. And she does it all with just a couple of hours help from a gardener once a fortnight.
3. Thankfully just missed the Asda incident, was there only a short time before the terrible event The victim was the husband of a friend of DD, they'd not long been married which seems to make it all the more tragic. All over a parking space and both over 60, whatever is this world coming to?
4. Bought two bunches of gladdies reduced to £2 each, one for DNeighbour for mowing my lawn, one for me just because
5. Laptop still holding out - really must get it seen to though before it expires completely
6. DD going oop norf to pick up her new girl tomorrow, no name yet but it has a cutest face as do all her mutts when they're pups
7. DS tearing around the motorways in an ambulance, hope he remembers to be careful when he has a patient in the back!

6) Brother popped in for some Wii playing with sons.
7) Guilty pleasure now of watching Road Wars!0 -
8. Forgot this one earlier - DNeighbour's DD and her friend took muttley for his afternoon walk, they'd gone 1/2 a mile when he slipped his collar (which was entirely my fault, I'd loosened it when I bathed him and forgot to tighten it again) and scuttled off as he is wont to do off the lead. The girls ran after him but lost sight of him, the DD phoned her mum in panic, the mum came to me to tell me, and there the little divil was sitting on my doorstep!
Night night0 -
Good morning all !
Sparrer - I am glad that muttley had his Sat.Nav. turned on ! I did think of you re the AsD* incident as it was in your neck of the woods.
Dundee - I am going to wrap up a marrow , tie a bow on it a send it to you for your 50th birthday
I wonder how our globe trotting Hepburnesque VJsmum is??
Have a good day all !:AToo fat to be Felicity Kendal , but aim for a bit more of the good life :A0 -
Hello!
1. Early rise and conversation with friend from home.
2. Made girls breakfast and went back to bed ....oh dear! Snoozed, woke up and then snoozed again .....I slothfully got up at 11am, was quite horrified!
3. Went to library and used their Internet and borrowed a couple more books,
4. Watched Ghandi on TV this afternoon....I've never seen it and hadn't realised it was such a loooong film!
5. Made chilli for dinner....might try cauliflower rice for me....the low carb alternative to rice!
Have a lovely day0 -
1. Spent the morning with DD2 and her friends and their little ones. Lots of riotous toddlers rampaging round a children's farm - great fun!
2. Eating a simple picnic of a sandwich and a yogurt outside in the sunshine.
3. DD1 and family came home from holiday, lovely to see them all, brown as berries, not so lovely to see DD1 has a broken foot.
3. Picking lettuce fresh from the garden.0
