    Good morning Penny, Kandy and everyone,

    Penny, As you have finished all your housework you can always come over here and do our's for us. :hehe: We never seem to have enough time to do everything.

    Kandy, although we spend a lot of time tidying up our garden it is never sorted out for the winter :(. So much to do and never enough hours in the day to do it. :)

    I got back from my match last night by 1 a.m. It was a very friendly and enjoyable game - made even more enjoyable by us winning by a large margin :yho:

    I've got a meeting this morning and then I'm playing bridge this afternoon, for a change :hehe:

    Have a great day :D

    Morning Shiney,just eating my brekkie when I spotted your post.:D

    Glad that you won by a Wide margin but have no clue how wide that is:flag::D Is it over or under a foot?Funny how we have these different sayings about things:p

    Since I haven't been too good lately I have lost a bit of interest in the garden,but as i said last week managed to get a little done outside but now we have the grass and borders saturated don't feel like going out there much.Strange though I have an orange Cowslip in flower,my Snowdrops are showing through the soil,some Daffs are also showing,plus I have flowers on my Rapsody in Blue rose,oh and as usual my Dublin Bay rose is a mass of flowers and will be until right through December.That is one brilliant rose,just a shame that it doesn't smell but the length of time it is in bloom more than makes up for it:gnthb:

    Hope the meeting doesn't go on for too long or is too boring and good luck at the bridge match this afternoon:luv:

    Good morning everyone,

    The sun is coming out and the gales have dropped to a strong breeze. :thumb:

    All I did in the garden yesterday was clear the leaves out of the gutters on the summerhouse. That filled up a wheelbarrow :( but the job is done now :). Oscar thought I was mad :hehe:. At one stage he kept running along the top of the fence alongside me and tapping me on the back. He wanted me stop playing with the leaves and play with him k-l

    I've got a meeting here soon so must go.

    Have a great day :D

    Good morning Rosa, Shiney and everyone.

    Late getting up this morning so my winter sleep problem is starting to kick in now.:( I got my lightbox down from the spare bedroom yesterday so am now going to start using it to see if it helps:p

    Rosa, glad you finally went to specsavers,i said you would in the end:D Yoiu are brave with the contact lenses as I couldn't wear them as I have a thing about eyes,:euw: At least with the contacts you won't be treading on them all the time:p Enjoy your day whatever you are doing :thumb:

    Shiney,your Oscar sounds like he enjoys helping with all your jobs in the garden. k-lThat Uggy/Davina cat follows me everywhere I go{when it isn't sleeping}and i swear one day i shall end up with it in the washing machine as it does like to have a look at what is going on when i am putting the washing in the machine:euw:

    Anyway,I had a good day yesterday although i was indoors for most of the day due to the wind and rain again and then last night went babysitting for my friend.I had to take some of my You to Me bears for her to see as she spotted them in her mums Next book last time i was with her,so I have asked Mr Kandy to get her one next time he goes in Clintons and I will give her that along with her money so she can now start up a collection of her own:hehe:

    The sun is shining although it is cold and windy so I'm going to hang some washing out then have a rummage in the garage to see what I can throw out as it is dustbin day next week:p

    Hope you all have a great day:)

    Good morning everyone,

    Woo,glad to see you back on here:thumb: and i do hope you are looking after yourself and taking it easy and not over doing things.It is too cold out there at the moment so you are better off staying inside in the warm:) I bet Gypsy Penny and Tiny are fussing round you and looking after you:luv:

    Penny 'Happy Thanksgiving' and hope that you have a good day:gnthb:

    Peri,I was just in the middle of doing a post on your Sparrowhawk thread when I lost it all when the computer decided to do some updates and the computer went off and when it came back i had lost it all again:(so Mr Kandy has changed the settings so it won't install them until I give it permission:D Sounds like you are going to be busy with the run up to xmas and I am sure you will love Leighton Moss especially if you see some Otters:)We are spending time at the end of the month up in the area of Shiney's birthplace so are looking forward to staying in the grounds of Pemberly{Pride and Prejudice}again and having 1,000 acres to walk round:D Good Luck with getting the pc sorted:thumb:

    Shiney forgot to say yesterday that you are doing well with your daffs with all their growth.I forgot to say we also have a Campanula in flower and also my bunny rabbits are still colourful:)

    Hope you all have a great day in all that you do:luv:

    Morning Rosa nearly missed you there.If its an y consilation Mr Kandy sat on my glasses when I took them off and left them on the arm of the settee and I wasn't very happy I can tell you but Specsavers came to the rescue and sorted them out for me which was a relief.My spare set are sunglasses so i couldn't really walk round with them on now could I :D

    Hope all goes well for you with your xmas dinner this weekend and i bet your Grandson will love all the prezzies you have got him this year:gnthb:

    Have a nice day now:luv:

    Good morning everyone,

    woo, it is good to see you perching here on Wakey Wakey :gnthb:. I hope things have settled down for you.

    Yesterday afternoon the gales started up again and, after all my good work, the gutters are full of leaves again :(. This morning is still windy but it looks as though the sun will be out again today.

    Mrs shiney decided to do some potting of seedlings into toilet roll centres so took a shoe box full of centres into the greenhouse. Oscar decided he liked the look of the box so helped her empty it :hehe: and then climbed inside. So Mrs shiney had to move it to the propagator. He spent the rest of the day sleeping in it.

    He is so much bigger than the box that we are going to give him a larger shoe box - from a pair of my shoes :). I wonder if he is going to prefer to be jammed into the smaller one :scratch: k-l k-l

    Have a great day :D
