Good morning everyone, I am sitting enjoying a cuppa that DH made and sorting through what I need to do/delegate (DH is off this week) today.

Alcohol-free gin is available, Valli, so I've added you into the round and asked for a double for Dizzy while he's passing your way. He got a bit lost, but he's on his way ....
I'd happily help you, Piggers, but I've found gumtwig much simpler and brings just as many queries and much, much quicker results.
Some work done on the sundeck yesterday. Most of the repotting has been done, just a couple of chive pots and a shrub thingy. Then there's a few more saucers to slide under the rest of the pots, the tree down the road to water and the urgent stuff's done.
The dog's moulting. Aaaaaaagh.Better is good enough.0 -

I've just had an email from Ronnie's Mum - she's coming to pick him up at 12:30 on Saturday. I am sooooo gonna miss the little guy; but he's coming back for Xmas.
Is the Chippendale on his way to Concrete Cow Country yet? If he perchance has some halfway decent malt whisky about him, I'll be a happy Wolf. Specially as 'tis my birthday today, and I really do NOT like the idea of being 57.If your dog thinks you're the best, don't seek a second opinion.;)0 -
Happy Birthday Lamewolf :beer: I hope you have a lovely day x
I am working today, but have had an hour or two to myself (1 child, and he is in nursery atm). I have been filling out the forms for my DM re probate and IT. I think I have done most of it.
I am going to spend half hour or so now catching up on some PW and then on the school run. Only 4 to collect today, so a bit quieter than yesterday
Flying wise - I have emptied the DW, and that's about it!0 -
Ah Wolfy - it's a good age to be. I plan to join you in that club later this year.
Happy, happy birthday xxxx
Half way throuhgh doing my bedroom, but I have stopped for a lunch. In SW terms - lots of speed...
Mum came earlier. We both had a little weep...but I was reminded that the last thing I said to my sister was that I loved her, and that was the last thing she said to me. How lovely to have that to remember.Don't put it DOWN; put it AWAY"I would like more sisters, that the taking out of one, might not leave such stillness" Emily DickinsonJanice 1964-2016
Thank you Honey Bear0 -
