PM2DD Wes still inn the tinpot. Chelski. Rock and roll. Oh. Don’t spend too much on punts.

Just coming down to Lancaster again. No problemo I hope. Weather is bright up Norff. Did not see any whippets.

Day T minus 7. Soon home to BoPsie.

This was not fake BoP news. All is good.

Then you wander and stare in awe at the land as it passes by.

Bedtime.

Doggy walk...first thing was still dark so just put a jumper over my jammies!

Work. Was okay. Pouring rain on way there but dry on walk back.

Home.

Took my car over to mechanics home, he’ll take it to work tomorrow for service/MOT . Son followed then brought me back.

Made fajitas for tea. Including the magical ingredient ...courgette! Loads to use up.

Heating on for an hour to try & dry off washing. It had a good blow in the very windy wind but then a heavy shower started.

I’ve totally fallen in love with a property it’s literally idyllic, but it’s just a bit too far over budget, isn’t it always the way! Being a meanie I am hoping it doesn’t sell as I am quite frankly smitten, so well if it reduced I wouldn’t bite their arm off or anything like that:rotfl::rotfl:…We both love it but can’t stretch that far.:(

1 I walked up with DH to his physio, where they did help which was nice, then walked up to the caf! and had a brekkie.
2 The heating came on and feels lovely.
3 We have made our own bit of progress in the kitchen.
4 I cleaned up hoovering is a daily thing at the moment
5 There may be chocolate orange…:cool:

Wednesday pleasures,

Made new to me loaf, walnut and sunflower seed, yum.

Played Hokey Cokey with the washing and finally left it out, the rain stopped and the sun come out.

Arrangements made to meet up with pals next monday for tea & cake.

The loud chattering of the sparrow squadron as they settled down to roost in the hedge, like birdy Waltons!

Snorkers for tea, this time Toad in the Hole with braised red cabbage, beloved has been dropping hints for a few days.

The pale apricot of an Autumn sunset.

For past couple of days.

1. Painkillers.

2. Texts from a couple of people at work as I was off sick with my back.

3. Windows cleaned and managed to pay the window cleaner. I often pay him for 4 visits at a time.

4. Online food shop arrived. Put some of it away and then waited for DS1 to arrive home and he out the rest away.

5. Reading my book when I could concentrate.

Still being at home this morning and not having to dash to do Grandpickle cover as DD2 thought she was in labour but has had nothing all night and has gone to work. Sticking close to home today just in case!

DD1 is feeling restless and only has 2 days to go to HER due date, we'll have hot and cold running babies at this rate, I'm feeling exhausted thinking about it all!

HWK has taken himself off fishing which is the most sensible thing he can do as it's only 10 minutes away and he can get home in a very short time if we have to cut and run.

I made 12lbs of damson jam last evening from the harvest from the allotment tree, I missed making the jams and pickles last year because of the house move and it was very nice to see all the cooled jars lined up on the tray in the kitchen when I got up this morning.

A day here will let me do all the little jobs that need doing.

BoP is back from the Norff and is back at the mill. Servicing other cloth stitcher. Nows where was BoP. Aye, up there I sees no whippets, but the glass on Sundae was out of this world. Though I now gather that is like that as it is easier to lash up whippet to the stem of the glass while …

Forgets to tells yous I had a bit of fun at the weakened. Managed on tax weak to knock outs mes building society piggy bank! So had to reset it while inn the Norff! Duly reset and then sent too many pennies to my account for the taxman to waste! All inn a flash! So got text from bank yesterday to says it is £3,500 over drawn. Sat patiently easting mes salad at Mill inn the Norff for the pennies to hit my current account and transfer! Taxman happy and bank not happy as they cannot charge me! That is how yous keep the pennies on the deposit! Better in mes pocket than the …

Well that is all from up Norff and Back again!

Try it, yous will like it
