Good morning everyone,
Oh no for your sister's cat Brambling but lovely it just drifted off peacefully in it's sleep.
Grey and wet here today though it supposed to dry up as the day goes on.

Tonight Frank arrives to stay until the 21st as DS1 and DIL2B are off to Greece and then at a wedding when they return. It will chaos for a couple of days and then he'll settle down into our routine.
Lunch is going to be a hummus, lettuce and tomato wrap. Tonight it's mushroom, lentil and black bean chilli from the freezer with rice and salad.0 -

Grey and damp start here but did eventually brighten up and turn into a nice afternoon. Lots of tennis watching here since I finished work so only enjoyed the sunshine through the window 🙃
Orzo pasta salad with mozzarella, pesto, olives, cucumber and sun dried tomatoes for lunch. Chorizo, new potato and courgette traybake with chimichurri tonight, quite looking forward to the LOs 😋0 -
Same here, I went to post a parcel at lunch and it was pleasantly mild and the gray was clearing, it was sunny by 2pm and quite warm again when I went out at 7pm. I did have a hangover type headache this morning due to lack of sleep the last few nights and not alcohol unfortunately so had a slow start tothe day. I did awake to a text from the water company threatening the possibility of no water due to a nearby water leak so had a quick shower followed by filling a bucket with water, the kettle and a 2 litre bottle just in case. Luckily the water stayed on, I did pass the water company men on the main road with water poring down the hill at lunchtime.Farway said:Very sticky & sleepless night, but rain arrived early so a thankful break.

Good morning everyone,
Yesterday dried in to a pleasant if not sunny afternoon but back to grey and wet this morning. Isn't hugely warm either. I've a stack of admin to tackle and I've just finalised tomorrow's Tesco order.
Frank and Hector are reasonably settled though Frank was crying for bit at bed time but did settle and is fine this morning. He'd had a solid nap in the evening and I think he wanted to stay up for a bit.
LO chilli for lunch. Moroccan lamb meatballs from Tebay farm shop with pasta and HM tomato sauce for dinner.
