Evening all:
Lindybird: Love those poppies - such a wonderful rich color. I love tulips that color too.
AQ: Glad you're feeling better; sorry about the heat.
Rita:The Epi doesn't usually bloom until June.....
Battling my way through this jigsaw, which is the hardest one I've ever done (although Van Gogh's Irises was pretty challenging). However, am packing it in now and enjoying a taste-test comparison of Hagen Daaz's Caramel Gelato and Dulce de Leche ice cream. The gelato is much smoother, but I think I prefer the texture of the ice cream. Both are very sweet, almost too much...
Anyway, have a nice Sunday everyone, especially Margo, who I hope is feeling better and enjoying some time with her OH. Also hallo to George!
Good Night Heather. Dream about sailing in that " beautiful pea green boat " LOL
Heather - I do understand how both you and your OH are having an anxious time at the moment and are feeling a bit low, especially with the bad news you have been receiving. But I know you will stay positive and in a few days from now your OH's cataract operation will be behind him and that will be one anxiety over. I am so sorry that you are going through a bad patch and I shall be thinking of you.
Thank you RITA x and BRENDA- I will spend tonight in the land where the Bong Tree grows. Happy dreams, everyone.
Heather: You are clearly the person that your family depends on, for better or worse. Pathetic is not a word I'd associate with you for one moment. I'd be tempted (though I never would actually say it myself) to do a Doc Martin and demand to know if "...there's anyone here with a real medical problem!!?" :-) Do hope your OH's gastric issues get sorted easily and that you both can relax once the cataract surgery is behind you. My OH and I often joke about moving and leaving no forwarding address now and then - but maybe the land where the Bong Tree grows will have to do! Take care of yourself; we're all here for you.
Gorgeous picture, Lindy. That definitely raised a smile here!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Good morning
CLARE, Good luck from me, too. You may yet hear from the other companies :-))
