HAPPY NEW WEEK AND NEW MONTH!
Last week's Weekly Chat thread is HERE. The code for this week's Weekly Chat thread is 010913 (in case you ever want to find it from the search box).
Strangely enough I didn't make a conscious effort to stop biting mine - it's just that I've been so unstressed lately I happened to spot that my nails had all grown!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
That's excellent Clare, not sure what partners problem is perhaps stress?! He has ME and that gets him down when it's playing up.
thank you all afor your thoughts, I am afraid Dillons illness was rapid and so he was put to sleep this morning
Dibnlib, whatever can we say? So sorry this has happened - our thoughts are with you.
Dibnlib : So sorry to hear about Dillon.
My condolences, dibnlib. I'm so very sorry.
Dibnlib, I hate to think how you both feel. I am truly so very sorry.
Brenda: Lovely hanging pot!
Clare: Even more congrats on losing weight and with great nails to boot. It's all downhill from here (weight-wise!). Sorry Limpy's schedule includes so many doc appointments. :-(
Diane: Diana Nyad makes me feel very puny having accomplished her life's goal at 64 - and here I am, still not even sure what my life's goal is (was?). It only takes a few winters of below average rainfall and we turn back into a desert.
Tina: Congrats on losing a stone; I'm always just about 5 pound over my comfy weight and it's so hard to lose those few pounds (whine, whine). :-)
dibnlib: Oh so very sorry to hear about dear old Dillon. Very sad development. :-( Hugs to you and your OH.
Off to gym.
DIBNLIB - special thoughts this evening for the two of you from the two of us.
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
