Hello All
Just a quick post from me. My party on Saturday was lovely and I wasn't allowed to do anything ( quite hard for me so told to sit on.my hands) YesterdayDD cooked roast for her dad and my DH.
When I went to bed last night I remembered I have a voice recording of my late Ddad so listened to that a few times. Three years since he passed and I still miss him every day.
Today we are off to Derbyshire for the week ( a pressie) so have been packing this morning. A mixture of summer and comfy clothes and smart for the evening and the meds including hay-fever pills for DH.
I am taking all my cards to open tomorrow.
Ruby hope you hear something positive for Rob this week.
Remmie bless your DGD I know with my own DGD puberty and teenagers have a hard time
Derek sorry your sale wasn't so well attended but how lucky for your primary school.
I hope everyone has a good day hugs to all who want them

Good afternoon from Mehefinland
Spent the morning sorting out plants and took a whole load to the primary school. Potted up some trees we were donated at the library- it is looking quite good now. Lots of compliments on Saturday about our new planters/seating. It was nice to see the space being used as we intended with people sitting in the sun with a cup of coffee and generally relaxing. More people came forward to help with the garden aspect of the place so we have a nucleus now to build on.
The litter pick at the local beach only yielded 8 bags this time- it is a well used beach and obviously cleaner as a result. There were silly people walking under the cliffs despite the danger signs. You could see where there had been cliff falls quite recently. A young woman was killed by a falling rock a few years ago at the same place. People have short memories!!
Hugs and spoons as always. Happy to take any hugs coming my way-father's day was a bit emotional :'(
