Oh heck, VJ 's mum. That sounds bad. Did the chicken only affect you, or are there other poorly people in your house?
Yesterday
Friend came round in the evening for drinks and a natter. No sitting outside as it was raining, so chatted inside instead. All of a sudden it was midnight!! It's good to talk!
Today
Glorious sunny day, with a gentle breeze. Perfect!
Our village is beset with roadworks. Fibre broadband one way, gas pipe replacement another. Complete snarl up! Perhaps somebody should have liaised with somebody else!
I've discovered sugar soap. Don't know why it's taken me so long. Anyway , all the doors are sparkly clean and I'm shattered. Time for a cup of coffee and a piece of cake, I think.
Happy 🌞day, everyone

Turns out it's gastroenteritis rather than food poisoning Happycas - am a little improved again today.I wanna be in the room where it happens13 -
Made my special salad last night and my brother loved it. Had forgotten how effusive he can be. He told me how he would happily eat it everyday. It's so heart lifting.
Loads of crows today. Finding it difficult now to find Flo & Co as they all have some kind of white markings. Oh well, it was wonderful while it lasted.
Tackled garden and feel pleased.
Weather absolutely beautiful. About to put washing out.
Have restful evening to those that need it.........

Hello. Typing with my ring fingers.Very wet and wild night but was dry by morning ( though now raining again) . Drove to beach and DD1 saw the sea first! Very gusty and very sand stormy so headed back to car.Went round a few charity shops...had a very successful haul! A beautiful green dress still with tags on. No idea when I’ll wear it but I shall! Even if I have to invent an occasion! Several tops/ tee shirts mainly per una and some with tags still on. A tunic/dress with pockets ( do love a pocket) .Met up with niece and the toddler. For lunch. Half price! As supermarket doing half price every day in August. The boy is a wee macaroni monster in the making. Was nice to see them.Had a big snooze when I got home.Tis my wedding anniversary today which is now bittersweet but good memories abound as it was the most amazing day. Filled with love and laughter.Started a book that DD1 had bought in charity shop.Girls are going camping tomorrow. There is much ( good natured) bickering. It will be quiet when they go. I will still have guest staying.12

Pleasures for today (Thursday).
1) I only know one person expecting GCSE results today and she did incredibly well.
2) Went to clean my friend's house (she is in hospital) and pretty much cleared the sitting room.
3) Did some shifting around of money in the bank as I need to buy a replacement car. :-(
4) A wood fired pizza company parked on the village car park so we had 2 pizzas and chips for tea.
5) Have done very little this evening!12 -
1. Last day at work for 2 1/2 weeks. So pleased.
It was dramatic as boss passed out and was taken to A and E but was recovering by lunch time and sent home. It is a long standing problem but first time that severe.
2. Holiday booked for Madeira leaving tomorrow for 2 weeks. No quarantine on returm. DH doesn't do well holidaying at home!
Booked a villa and DS1 coming for a week.
3. Chat with neighbour.
4. We all went to local pub for a drink and say outside on the village green..
5. Feeling relaxed.14 -
Enjoy your break VL.
For yesterday,
The postie came with a little box of treats, a candle, essential oil and bath salts, all from a local company.
Went to see the beautiful grey one, no work as allowing feet to adjust but gave her a groom and, as always, enjoyed just being with her.
I got 33 points on PopMaster, a lot of 80’s questions so fell just right.
Took small dog to a nearby nature reserve, you have to book for some parts but the car park and others are open to general public. We were out for a couple of hours and had a great time, at one point there must have been over a dozen dragonflies hovering above us.
Sat outside whilst tea was cooking and enjoyed the evening sun.

Well done on popmaster lainey
Still ill
Pleasures for yesterday
1. I ate a bit more - if i'm going to suffer, i'm not going to be hungry too. Just plain stuff like toast, banana, rice and pureed apple
2. Watched (nearly) all of carshare (finished today) - never seen it before and at first thought it was a bit uneventful but then found it charming
3. Buscopan - wonderful relief from some pain
4. i think i'll bank four and five - fed up with being ill now...
Have a good day allI wanna be in the room where it happens13 -
A wonderful day.
Visited small lovely town and visited 2 charity shops. Came away with fantastic haul. Brother enjoyed himself. Food bought for Tiggy. New hat bought for brother.
Garden looking so much better.
Take-away tonight. Rare treat.
Cooling mat bought for Tiggy seems to be working although didn't really when it was in the 30's. House was like an oven.
All 'happy' here. What more could I ask for..............
