Where did January go? Really interesting hearing about all the new/pending pups - think you have found some surrogate owners!!!
OG pleased J arrive home safely and with good news.
Clare sorry Limpy is suffering. Pleaed to see you have another interview lined up.
Good morning all have a good weekend.
Good Morning Everyone. It was a bright morning here but now grey and cloudy. Hopefully the bitingly cold wind will leave us today. Ironically, I woke up at 2am because I was too hot.
Annette, Pleased that you are due some rain this weekend. Your garden will enjoy it.
Linda, I know you will really enjoy your visit to your Youngest son today. I did love your " wobbly smiles " description and I know exactly what you mean.
Limpy, Take care and I hope you recover asap. Minsmere will need you even more, shortly :-))
Our daughter was due to spend this weekend with us, but she will now have to work, so nothing planned.
Hello, on a very misty day. Was supposed to clear by noon, but no wind to blow it away. Snow still on the ground, but a little warmer than before.
Don’t think I’ll manage individual replies to all, but have enjoyed the chat.
Pleased Clare has another interview soon, but sorry about Limpy’s back pain.
Dibnlib – good to see photos of Benson again! I especially liked the second one. I love Hares in art, so I know I would be tempted!
Wendy – pleased your elder Daughter is making a visit soon.
AQ – I guess you will be lying low during the March Festivals. Maybe you’ll get some much-needed rest!
Annette – enjoy the rain!
Linda – I am sure you are having a lovely day with the Grandsons; wishing you a good journey home.
Brenda – sorry daughter had to cancel her visit for work; I know how you look forward to time with your children.
OH is doing some woodwork in the meter cupboard: the electric one, which is right in the middle if the house, so I shall have to ask permission to walk through! J is out, so I am going to claim my craft desk and make a few more cards.
Ospreys Rule OK, but Goldfinches come a close second!
Found this (July 2010) when looking through some photos: won't be long now!
OG what a wonderful pic, thank you.
Spoke to a friend on the phone yesterday and she was not in a good place. She knows she is welcome any time and I was pleased when she called back at 2100 and asked if we were in today. We said come for lunch and I made pasta with prawns.. veg, lemon and mascarpone. I have to say I excelled myself. When she arrived about 1100 it really was a case of get the tissues out as she was in tears. Anyway after lunch, a dog walk and coffee at Tiso and 6 hours of chat and plenty of laughter, she left us with a smile on her face. Job well done and we enjoyed her company as much as she did ours.
Well done, DIBNLIB - sounds like you were the friends she desperately needed today, and the excellent lunch too!
dibnlib: Good for you! You're my kind of friend. :-)
Dibnlib: a friend indeed.
