Monna can you not rent the house to your son and his wife? Under a proper legal tenancy agreement? Then you're free to float around and find something nice for yourself?

Not really mar. I wouldn't like to have my family give up their rented house and move back here and then in a couple of months find something I would like to buy and make them move out again so that I could sell this place. Also I would then meet the same problems again of trying to sell in a stagnant market.
All first world problems, but very real when you live in a first world.

I really worry about myself. I've just caught myself apologising to a teeny tiny ant or spider, too small to see which, as I squashed it flat, and explaining that it was better this way because they were never going to be able live a happy and fulfilled life on my windowsill.
I think I'll book my place in the asylum.

The heat is racking up.

I jave just got home from the lottie, where my plot neighbour invited me to pick his redcurrants (in exchange for jam )...he'd covered them to hide from the birds and I managed to acquire just over 3kg AND left some for the birds & animals on the plot

Hi TT, ooh, go on, there aren't many hills in Austria, you'll be fine :rotfl:

Funnily enough I was just reminiscing about an amazing long weekend in Vienna during which I went to see the beautiful Lippizaners perform at the Spanish Riding School. I cried!

A belated happy birthday to Ginny ! x

FairyP, while dusting and scrubbing I will attempt to think of the unlikliest animal to appeal to mar's tastebuds.

At first I thought an echidna. But then I realised she'd treat it like cheese and cocktail sausage pre-skewered on sticks.

Do kangaroo steaks give you the hiccups, Mar??
