    Evening,
    Greetings from the inlaws sofa.
    BORED!
    Went into town this morning but no Lolita in Debs. Sorry mumto5.
    Had fish and chips on the beach for lunch which was fab!
    Roast dinner tonight although 2 roast pots does not in my book constitute a roast dinner!
    Bored now. Hate evenings here.
    Not sure what the plan is tomorrow but hopefully Abbotsbury. I like it there.
    Happy birthday G&B. And what's the deal with cheap cat food? Mrs C?
    Beautiful photos Sexy. Looks like a truly wonderful day.
    Prayers for AJs FIL to be.
    Throw us a hot cross bun Piggers. Please?

  • Hi All
    Lovely photos Sexymouse, you had lovely weather and looks like a memorable wedding.
    We have just crawled in. I don't know who aches more me or DH
    My ankle is killing me, I ran 3.3 miles (1 circuit) had intend to do 5 miles but gave up after 3.3 just not worth damaging it further. DD(9) ran with me all the way and DD(12) and DS(5) ran 2 miles(shorter route) Can't believe DS managed that having ran up and down the hill before we started so I reckoned he ran at least 3 miles!! DH amazing having not ran for 20 years or so (used to play football) ran 5 miles, to say he is suffering is an understatment. We then headed off to the races for the afternoon - children were brilliant at picking winners we laid out £5 in bets per race (6 races) and came away less than £3 spent. So good day had by all. Hubby has just got out of bath and is a bit stiff so I think he may not be doing any flying for me tomorrow probably just SOAADFA!!!!! while i am at work. Thank goodness it is only the kitchen and dining room they haven't been used today so will not require much doing to them tomorrow Yippee
    Think an early night is called for.
    Thanks to MSE savings we got to go to Disneyworld Florida.

    Evening

    More washing folded and delivered to the individuals

    Utility looking loads better but there are bags of stuff to sling now that need to go outside. Otherstuff needs to be relocated to Dh shed or garage but not the toy shed!

    Need to continue a bit then iron work stuff which I had hoped to do earlier but certain issues prevented me from doing it, which reminds me she has 2 mins to get out of the bath and into bed.

    Think that'll be over and out for tonight so will pop back in after work tomorrow hopefully

    +ve vibes for ajmoneys OH's dad Roy and hugs or spoons for everyone else. Special wishes to LadyLiberty and Toots.

    Not cheap cat food as such, Mrs C PMd me for recommendation of good cat foods. I recommended www.zooplus.co.uk as they sell high quality cat food (Animonda Carny/Bozita/Smilla) and they are the same price as supermarkets sell the rubbish like Whiskas/Felix etc.
