Cheery's country living adventure

Blimey.  I would be a tad put out!

Same here! I think you’re entitled to be a bit peeved Cheery, especially rushing around in this heat!

I AM a tad put out! Trying to be generous, but they only made the arrangement at 11 and said they'd be here at 1, so I would have thought it would have been clear before 2 that they weren't going to make it! 

Hey ho. I don't think they've ever done this to us before, but they've definitely said they're going to turn up to events or parties and not made it before. 

Trying not to let the annoyance ruin the day - we now at least have a tidy (well, tidier) house and garden, and we've put all the stuff in the car ready for the tip so that's one less thing to do in the morning 🙄

Good to look on the positives though that is deffo vexing.  Wonder how they manage in other areas of life lol 🤔

Visitors just rang to say they're not coming after all - over an hour after they were meant to be here 🙄 ot seems they hired some kind of fancy car which they have to have back for 4pm, and have been driving around so much they now don't have time to visit us 🙄

Well that's just rude Cheery 😲

Totally agree

Spare cake ? 

What time do you want me ???

How very rude at least you can take some positives from your day.

Ha, you're all very welcome to pop round for spare cake! 😁

Mr Cheery and I salvaged our sanity by going into town and sitting in the shade outside a cafe drinking tea, him doing the crossword and me plotting and scheming 😁

Got a good plan for tomorrow now.

* early morning tip run (everything is already in the car)

* trip to local market town - to a DIY shop for extension roof fastenings, some fabric for me to make another summery top, a bit of a charity shop trek, and a cafe trip 😁

* home for lunch in the shade, and then an afternoon hopefully getting a couple of roof panels on. 

* and I must do a quick clean out of the car, I'm off on an exciting road trip with a friend on Tuesday, and not having had anyone in the car other than Mr Cheery for at least 18 months, the situation is rather dire! 😮

Gosh, I've only been offline for a couple of days, and there's *loads* happening   I'm so glad to read of a few fun trips you've got set up this week - and I include the brain scan thing in that, because of the mug  I think that's wonderful!

Ooooo - most vexing - enough said!

So glad to hear you managed to salvage the rest or day and have a good plan set out for today.

We too are making a trip to the tip after having spent the weekend clearing 2/3 of the shed! Boot is almost full - just waiting on a dead dehumidifier and our microwave which kicked the bucket yesterday!
