We have cancelled out trip to New York - should be there now as we couldn't isolate for the pcr results. My boss has messaged me as to whether I knew about the need for self isolate and what were my plans. I responded I was aware and nothing else.

1. Voucher for full cost already received and used for rebooking trip in March nd with enough time to isolate for a couple of days.. The time was already booked off work.

2. Chat with my Mum on the phone and she invited us over on Friday.

3. Long chat with DS1.

4. Started making Christmas decorations.

5.  Walked round Wisley with DH.

All in Colour, is that Join the Dots Ms. &?
Shelford. I went there once back in 2013! Under TILAMS I think! Our coach did a tour of Cambridge trying to find it!
Rough Bed!
Hare Cut! (Blue Rinse?)
VJ that is a potato line?
Wonky yule tee!
Bala, I will change words for you as and when I do not feel like it!

Early Bird!

Had my sweet and sour prawns last night with fake saffron rice, done with termites! (Turmeric!!!!). Served with mushrooms and sliced peppers! Then had the raspberries and ice cream as well!

Film disaster last night, so ended up with bits. Cheese and fruit waters were taken!

Had the golden flakes of corn this morning in ice milk, tea and bits. Kitty had her fish dish and is snoozing it off on her pouffe!

The Albatross was sent off to see if she can beat my current land speed record to her work! AKA Lead Foot Sue, she will have another try tomorrow!

Now sat with my mug of tea, tad early for my root ginger chocolate covered biscuit, but I can assure it will be devoured later!

Jen sends her Buzz!

Keep Safe!

Thank you Amp, made me pause, your words have warmed me.

Thank you all.  For your kind words and compassion.  Sorry for disappearing, it was not because I wasn't interested, I just couldn't bring my feelings here as I was struggling.

Have a good warm day.....

Good Luck! I only put up nonsense and things on these boreds. And there is no way I is going to change. End of!

I note the farcebuck has removed a friend painting pages this morning without any warning, gone! Twenty years of images! Gone! No redress. No idea how he upset the artificial unintelligence algorithms. That is why I only put up nonsense!

Lovely pic of the railway, VJsmum. My grandmother had a cottage in North Wales long ago, just up the lane from a single track line. In those days the steam train still brought the milk and could be heard hooting very early in the morning as it passed the crossing, and again late at night as it made its return journey.
Villagelife - I was invited to a literary event in Italy expenses paid, but had to decline because I couldn't get the red tape together. 

Recent pleasures:
Extricating the car from its position on a snowy, icy hill by the simple expedient of waiting for the sun to come up and soften conditions enough for driving to be possible.
Getting home safely from visiting my daughter in Lincolnshire after encountering some excitable drivers en route.
My own bed!
A therapeutic bonfire in the garden after a good tidy-up.
Two washes done and hung out in today's milder weather (not at the same time as the bonfire.)
A rather nice lamp for £7.50 from my favourite charity shop as we seem to be short on bedside lamps.
A mini roast dinner of two chicken breasts between three of us, with hasselback potatoes and veg.
