Yawn, Yawn, Wakey Wakey!! 2016

Good afternoon folks,

I'm late on parade today! I've had a busy morning .

I'm a bad woman I moved some papers on my desk this morning & found two thank you cards which I've forgotten to send , my grandad will be turning in his grave! I can hear him telling me off !

It's a lovely day here but I think we are in for a thunder storm later on.

I must dash, hope you are all ok

I was just cursing the garage to Steve and saying I was reluctant to phone them when the phone rang and it was them saying it was done. Not going to cost as much as they had estimated. The chap is coming to pick me up and take me back to the garage in the next 15 minutes or so.

 

Happy to hear you have had some good news!

 

Hi @moyra I hope this brilliant news is the turning point for you , it was about time you had some good news my friend

 

Good morning Everyone, well the mechanic never came until gone twenty past four when I just had to take Amber for her ablutions. He was happy to wait while I did that and then went back to the garage with him. He said it was unusual for the Fiestas to rot away like that underneath and had it sat in water at any time. I then recall the valeting my cousin had done to it before he sold it to me and everything was soaking wet, they never extracted the water from it. It took about 18 months or more to dry out the inside but obviously the floor was still wet! He said yes that would explain it rotting from the inside out! He reckons the Fiestas are usually very good unlike the Ka that became very popular afterwards. I realize that when I look at my neighbours one which is not that old but already rusting away on the bodywork. Anyway £520 later I came home, renewed the insurance £213 which includes Stephen and no claims bonus and windscreen protection etc, £145 for tax and now I am set up for the year. Oh by the way the mileage I did last year 330 miles..............is it worth it YES! for the independence.

Glad you are having fun with your friends Shiney. WOO trust all is well in your nest dear.
Beckie, please don't tell me she is still broody! Zigs, no news yet?
Have a good day all, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God Bless.

 

Good morning,

Overcast here, but I'm hoping for some sunshine later on

A friend of mine has given me 2 garden chairs & a two seater sofa, she was going to throw them into the skip but they are in perfect condition! She had them in her summerhouse so they've never been outside! I can't wait to pick them up , I've bought her a lovely orchid from M&S as a thank you.

@moyra Buttercup is still broody! I will lift her out of the coop soon, to make sure she has some breakfast! I'm pleased to hear that you've got your car back

@Zigs are news on the job front?

@shiney im pleased to hear your back is improving

@CanadianLori I hope all is well with you?

I've got a busy day today so I'd better get a move on.

Enjoy your day everyone

 

Morning early people

They've not said no on the job front yet

You need a tractor Moyra, red diesel and no road tax

Carry that chicken around with you till she snaps out of it Beckie

Have a good day everyone

 

You can only use a Tractor for Agricuture work, nowt else or your breaking the law, with paying no road tax and useing rebated diesel, you can't use it for Privete light goods
Sorry Zigs

 

Yes, he is home now. It was only a mild seizure, so now the doctor's are going to keep an eye on him. He seems back to normal.

 

Morning early people

On light duties for the next few days, cracked me ribs trying to open a hot water jug

Good to hear Peter's on the mend Lilly

Barrel is half full after yesterdays thunderstorm

Finally got 3 Bridgwater beans to germinate, 5th sowing

Have a good day everyone and don't open anything dangerous

 

Good morning everyone, no thank you no tractor for me. I love my little car. I guess I should phone the doctor today to see if he has heard from the surgeon, but not sure I can be bothered.
I am glad you are enjoying your day trips out Shiney with your friends, obviously good for your back.
Beckie, poor Buttercup this is going on a bit too long, wonder why? She so desperately wants to be a mummy!
Hope all is well across the pond Lori, take care.
WOO hope you are feeling a bit bouncier these days. Zigs wish you well on the job front.
Lilli glad Peter is home, he will have to take things steady.
Have a good day everyone, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well. God bless.
