    Afternoon all

    Nice to see you L-L, take it easy my love.
    Jinky - sending you strength love...
    Piggers - big hugs. Hope Tabitha pulls through

    Welcome JayII

    Just a quick in and out. Just back from cleaning at NN's then I'm off out trying to get those last two elusive interviews this evening. I could do with some serious vibes on that - if there are any spare although I realise there are far more serious things to be vibing about at the moment.

    Will do the stars now - catch you all later...

    Afternoon all

    Piggers I'm glad DD1 is back and hope Tabitha is back to full health really soon

    Soappie - interviewing vibes coming your way.

    Gammon cooking
    Tiler been to finish grouting
    DS2 collected DS3 from school
    Invigilating done plus and hour of setting up for tomorrow's early start.

    Off to get changed and see how the orange paint looks now it has dried. Not in the mood for doing anymore of it tonight, I'll see what time I finish tomorrow and might get some done then (or maybe some more gardening - Hex my mojo is back after that very odd blip)
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair

    Soappie *loads of vibes coming your way*

    WM on and TD, DW unloaded and put away.
    Bo is now in the wee hall as the builders have now done the path round the room, so the dog is to stay in tonight. Hopefully no parcels in the morning.;)
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.

    Right, the promised rain has started so I'm off out. Hopefully I will now find someone in in the retirement land down the coast.

    Unless they've all gone out to play bridge.... ~sigh~
