    Good morning
  • Good morning everyone. I've had a very exciting morning, dh was going to work but his van is playing up so he was transferring his tools over to the car. Next thing he's shouting Di, Di, Di come down here QUICK........ so I'm sprinting (I use that term very loosely ) downstairs chanting there's an owl in my box, there's an owl in my box. I get to the front door and there is a huge huge dog Fox trotting up the road! I nearly passed out with excitement. He said it just walked straight past him when he was stood at the back of the van, we always used to hear them calling in the night but in 16 years we've lived here I've never seen one. Since we got the big grey bins we don't hear them any more so i presummed they had stopped coming this way but apparently not.
    What a pleasant start to the day, have a good one every body.
  • Morning peeps....Its another mild and dry start to the day....

    And Redfox has moved into Di's street:T:T:T

    Really happy you got sorted DM:D

    Boots sale tomorrow? that's flying in the face of perceived wisdom:rotfl: Unsure if I can cope with it being this early:rotfl::rotfl:

    Lists will need to be made this evening just in case:) As usual I will need men's giftsets to put away for Christmas 2017 and any nice kitcheny gift sets for presents. I'll try and fit in a visit to my local today to see if there's anything I need to hide for tomorrow and check my money off vouchers that came in the post last week.

    My Frugal January is about to be tested:D

    She commented last week that the kon Marie way of life was for her, so she is busy decluttering her house. I think she said shecwas glitching anymore because she was getting loaded up with things she wasn't using. I can't remember exactly but I think she had wasted some washing liquid.
    I've checked with Dd Lala and shes fine.

    I think this is the peak month for hearing them. It's the mating season and also the grown-up cubs have to disperse and find new territories. Our dog gets bothered by all their barking and needs to join in, all night long.:(

    Well I hope she pops in for a cuppa:) We would miss her if she disappeared altogether:o
