    Morning all

    Hope you are all safe and warm today.

    Cycling my thoughts are with your family at this sad time

    Mudders - hugs for you and get well soon. Thank you for the link

    Fence man here putting up the new fence so that will be one job finally well and truly done.

    Off to clean windows and dust - I hate dusting.
    The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair

    Aww so sorry CyclingYorkie, at least he went peacefully, how upsetting for you all though.

    Did your DD1 manage ok at Harry Potter, I know this was a big event for her? x


    As for Harry Potter she loved it and coped brilliantly.:T:T:beer::j All I can say is she's desperate to go again, but as we all have colds/coughs I am standing my ground and making her wait! She has made so much progress this year that I want her to be careful!!!
