  • My day today

    Might be teaching depends on the weather - call me old fashioned (YOUR old fashioned) - I don't really like doing pruning and alike in a gale and rain.
    I've to gather some tools
    Do more work on website for work
    NEED to do work on my own website
    DD in town all day, for tea and then fencing after
    Ds off school prelim leave
    Puppy has already eaten the hens food (I can't wait to hear his tummy later)
    Hens have tried to get into the house twice already
    Eggs which were hidden have been found, washed and boxed up

    Banks to look at and decide how to move forward with those - probably not much in the way of PAD action but I'll peek

    I need to make lunch and find waterproofs - oh the glamour.

  • Hey up cheery hope you're feeling OK today ? Did I tell you I went to your cafe (very brave of me) and I had an egg roll and a cuppa (£2.72) and I sat down by myself for probably the first time ever in a cafe and just took in the ambience and had a wee write in my book.

    I blame you entirely - I was a bit panicked before I went in but I was OK actually. I quite enjoyed it too.
    Thank you for introducing me to 'cafe life' :)

    Its cold here and wet and yukky.

    KK I'm so pleased that it's all moving for you. And DD will be in for her "big" birthday. How lovely.

    Pippi a romantic fund. We don't celebrate Valentine's day here as the welsh have one on January 25th so we've already had ours.

    Cheery a tea and fairy cake party sounds fab. Jelly and ice cream would have fitted in there too. When we moved in here we held an afternoon tea for people who wanted to pop up and see the house. I did enjoy that.

    LT surely you are not 21????? That's huge!!! ;) I do hope you get to move before your birthday.

    Half term here and I'm dropping DD off to her friend's house for a play date this morning. So she's currently busy deciding what she's going to wear and how she wants her hair!!!! I'm sure I didn't spend this amount of time getting ready at 4 years old!!!

    Take care everyone

    Pippi, you're up bright and early and already bustling around! All I've managed is some half-hearted housework!

    Will catch up later, need to see if there's any work out there.

    KK i'm so pleased that you've got your exchange date when will you be moving actually. I would love to come and help you pack boxes but i have a sneeky suspicion that you're too far away :( I'm very practiced at packing boxes, i should write it on my CV!

    Pippi, nice cheery post from you hope you're enjoying keeping your chickens under control. i dreamt about a chicken last night, it had a dodgy leg it wouldn't bend and stuck out(may have even been a wooden one lol) it was called Suzanne or Suzy for short. Think i took it to the vets and my cat was jealous so broke into the vets office. She didn't do the chicken any harm though in case you're worried. Hmmmmm i wonder what that is all meaning.???

    Starnac i'm so far off 21 it's a distant memory lol but it is certainly a zero birthday.

    Lemon Tree - I'd be ecstatic if you came down and help me pack!!! I'm rubbish at it and even more pants at getting rid of things I really don't need. I have more wine glasses than I know what to do with and rarely have more than 2 extra people in the house but can I declutter any? Can I heck as like.....come down to sunny Brightonish area so you could help me pack and then we could go for fish and chips on the seafront :)

    The exchange is hopefully Monday next week with completion on Wednesday 29th. Gulp. 2 weeks today.....

    Any other offers?!? ;)
