    Oh no, poor Mr Hbbb! :( What a fright for you all, glad to hear he's feeling ok though and best wishes for a speedy recovery!
    Aww, you must miss him so! I've tried this with the boy ... he just doesn't get the principle of why on earth a biscuit would be put on his nose!
    Haha, bless his little cotton socks. :) But miss him, yes, oh dear, he was such a character! It's true what they say though, animals can be the best teachers, he was the most placid, unruffled and happy creature you could ever hope to meet. :)
    ... You haven't heard me sing P*M!
    Now I definitely want to hear you. :rotfl:

    The big question is did you manage to get tickets P*M? The news said they sold out in 15 mins!
    :rotfl: I'm surprised you didn't see the disco lights and noise coming from my diary :p ... I only went and got super duper seats on my actual birthday! :dance: :dance: :dance:


    Homemade tea bread, how wonderful :D

    Hope you both have a lovely, restful weekend (& yes, can't wait for sunny evenings!) x

  • Hi Habibiboo, sorry to hear about DH.

    Hope he recovers quickly.

    Thanks Tilly, we just had a bit of a grot night between us .... it kind of didn't help that I skipped my night-time meds so that I wouldn't be "out of it" if he needed me. We need to think of a cunning plan to manage that one until he's himself a bit more! We definitely plan on some fresh air and pooch walk today!

    Hope you get a lovely weekend!

    Grot night but the sun is shining here and feeling pro-active even if I haven't quite got the energy to match! Planning to:

    * Bit of housework (at least downstairs as mum's coming to dinner)!
    * Dog walk
    * Have some work I must clear today
    * TLC for raised bed 1: plant next row of lettuces and rescue 1st row seedlings from weeds; check on leek seedlings
    * Prepare a few things for said dinner
    * Make a Mother's Day card
    * Catch up with some diaries
    :T Put clocks forward tonight!

    Hope everyone's good!
