5 OS pleasures in your day today - part 3

Purple_kitten

1 The quality tops arrived, one is amazing the other really not, but free and easy to return. The other top is amazing quality, I know it’s 75 percent off, but wow the original price is more than eye watering. I find it hard to believe anyone would pay?

2 Kiev with brown rice and broccoli tonight.

3 Having to take it a little bit easy, I broke my toe about a week ago now, but today it’s not good, which scuppered plans for a stroll, pleasure sitting here with it up with abba and the bee gees  blaring out.

4 I did a strange sitting down mainly change of our bedding, and created a lot of washing. But it was oddly easier than normal.

5 I’ve actually lost a little weight by maintaining the diet which feels noticeably good. I was going to order something bad in, but it will wait now.

6 Looking forward to that fresh clean feeling after a bath and clean sheets.

7 Watching the various birds on the feeders and seeing a nut hatch, and got the fleeting woodpecker landed on the fence but by the time I looked and worked out what it was they were flighty and gone.

Work happened
1. Long chat with neighbour - she had been told the plan of her return to work.

4. All ironing finished here too.
5. Enjoying my book.

Many congratulations to you and your family HappyCas.
For yesterday,

The Buddleia is finally in full bloom, we are on butterfly watch but just the three species so far.

A very formal invitation to a meal with DSS and his gf, a menu has been provided and drink preferences enquired about.

The second half of the three bean salad, this time had some mackerel with it.

My beloved being able to come downstairs from the office and have a mid afternoon cuppa with me in the garden, benefits of WFH.

The speed at which small dog chases her tennis balls, low down to the ground, spaniel ears flapping, beyond cute.

Good morning all, pleasures for yesterday.... 

Made two lots of vanilla ice cream before the cream in the fridge went out of date
Did a 30 minute run 
House is still mostly clean and tidy
Picked raspberries and blueberries from the garden
Ordered a mask with a pirate pattern for my friend who was disppointed that the dinosaur masks in the local chemist were for children and not adults 

Congratulations on the new arrival Happycas

Take care all of you

Amid all else, many thanks to all posting here.
Happycas - that IS joyful news:-)
Cranky - you've reminded me to 'test' my nectarine icecream, made last week.
Bop - & bit:-) 'All Relative' reads+reviews like a rather poor, pale ideas theft spin-off from The Graduate.  Is that fair?
Also, as you now know aldi orange+choc 27p per pkt biccies surpass the other ones, let us proceed straight to osp:
1. & discovered yesterday that same is true of Aldi's 47p Dark Choc Wheatens!  Taken during closing hours of Bastille Day CUBG visit, another good walk and think. Wore treasured vintage tricolore sash and bleu/blanc/rouge from top down.
...with black green tea from purple thermos, sitting here.

2. Msgs from young person. Restricted funeral should be live-streamed. Going to a particular bit of coast this weekend. Many, many caring people are keeping him safe.

3. 10p on the ground beside &'s free parking - reverbe bonus:-)  

4.  There are familles françaises very much involved at rugby club, so & headed there, for combined nod to Bastille Day+first 1sts+Seniors' full training after CUBG.
Incredible turn-out: 60+!!!  All keen and so good to see!
Lovely merlot too :-)

5. Spoke to France first thing.  Helps so much.  'Just come and live here'.
Then nearly half an hour via Messenger to old NZ schoolfriend this morning.  His mum will turn 100 come 22 October.  D says she may just make it....

The Kittens are Doomed!

Well, I has too look far inn mes fotos and thought of this one of pullies and things from San Francisco. The Cable Car Powerhouse!

PK's I don't mean yous, it is the Hull City inn the Football. None inn my town as pu55y! Cants out that here, hence, Kittens!
Welcome to the new babe inn the Parish.
PM2DD It is all on Saturday. Has too tone the radio of the web to slumberside and hear them from the Sulphar Capital of the east riddings. Seems their very own man from boothferry has drowned inn his sorrows on cornflakes. Callers ringing up saying they has torn up their membership, wanting refunds. I am just pondering whether it was a mariner who updated their liedapedia page as a result, All on Saturday, and Raffles is being given very special treats to make the waves! Fool Chitty 2 Football League Division 3. The Fishy forum is alive with condolences! This shud really bees inn me pleasures section!

Now agin, the BoP things inn our Parish!

Well chuffed last night, BoPsie just hinted after supper the football scores! Cheese were well liked with the cocoa. We watched After Life. Wes just started, so 1-1 canned. Then a recap of The Grand Tour. Crumpet was also had.

As I has said, BoP Motor is inn for its service tomorrow. So no elevenses, but today's elevenses are the nut of ginger with a nice cup of tea.

There, now for lunch today,we is has the Crab Sarnie with usual mix of strawbs, blueberry, orange, raspberry jelly, toms and cucumber. Later we has BoP kedgeree with smoked haddock and some shrimps!

Had snorkers and best back for brakefest this morning. Tea was drinked.

Well that is all. BoP is wallowing inn the kittens remorse on the interweb radio.
I would walk home if it happened to me!
