Morning Spike! :hello:
Sorry to hear about your hair disaster. I dyed mine red, and it came out really bright. I had short curls at the time, so I looked a bit like Ronald Mcdonald gone wrong! :rotfl:
Sorry to hear you're having troubles. Part of life.
We're having a whole chicken cooked in my slow cooker today. I haven't got anything else to report, but we're all happy enough. Its a lovely summery day, and I'm feeeling very fortunate to have the people around me I do.
Have a lovely day
