Yawn, Yawn, Wakey Wakey!! 2016

Good morning everyone,

Shiney, don't go overdoing things again. I have a load of washing to go out on the line so hope it is going to stop raining soon and brighten up!
Have a good day all, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God bless.

 

Good day everyone,
@moyra I wish it would Start raining here! We got a sprinkle in the middle of the night. Barely enough to wet the ground and not enough to cool us down - we are over 30c - around 87f already...

I've got to get myself in gear for when my two new raised garden structures arrive. They 4'x8' and are made of composite which is guaranteed to never rot. I need to get a yard of soil ordered. Oh, guess I'd better figure out what kind...and get my wheel barrow technique thought out in advance

Have a safe day everyone

 

Good afternoon fellow WW'ers

Up early today and got all the "have to's" out of the way so I would have some time for the "want to's". Trouble is, I'm feeling quite weary now and may soon end up as a snoozy snooze!

Oz is back to his usual friendly, chilled out self so I'm putting down his grumps from the other day as just that: grumps! Either that or he was cheesed off with the referendum results (which seems to be the current trend) Whatever happened to that distinguishing feature of "Britishness" where, even in loss, we would still say, "Bravo!"; "the best man won"; and, "be a good sport"? Not to mention that other typically British attitude of "master of the understatement"? People bandying emotive words around such as "ashamed" to be British and the results being "disgusting" and the youth crying out they have been "robbed". Whatever happened to a bit of backbone and a bit of stiff upper lip?

The weather really isn't inspiring one way or another, although yesterday was lovely and Mr "M" saved me from "sweating over a hot stove" (? I'd planned a salad!) and took me out for lunch. It was a chain restaurant place, but, to be fair, the lunch was actually quite good quality, fresh, hot and tasty, with portions being generous enough that Mr "M" had to sacrifice his waistline by finishing off what I could not manage (and we only had one course)

Yesterday evening watched a very interesting programme called "Calling Blighty"; archive film of troops serving in WWII (Burma) sending filmed messages home to loved ones. Now, *there* was evidence of true "stiff upper lip" (and that was your working classes ).

Oh dear!

Just seen the picture of them, how exciting! Hope the delivery happens when they say it will

Right, Mr Iggulden is calling me, so I best be off.

Miles of smiles for all and healing vibes for those in need of them xxMxx

 

Morning early people

Lovely morning despite what the weatherman said

Only found 17p yesterday but did find these...



Museum lady reckoned they're bronze rivets from a shipwreck and a cast bit of bronze, possibly a bit of a bell Been pointed in the direction of someone who can confirm that

Back down the beach in a bit.

Have a good day everyone and always check your inhaler for woodlice

 

Good morning everyone. Shall be glad when these politicians sort themselves out. Hope you are getting straight again in the garden Shiney and not overdoing things.
These antibiotics are giving me a lot pain in my stomach. I took some extra Lansoprazole yesterday to counter act them. May have to stop taking them if they continue to cause me such indigestion and pain.

Happy hunting Zigs.
Have a good day everyone, stay warm and dry and above all safe and well, God bless.

 

Good Afternoon,

Goodness me this blinking referendum is causing all sorts of troubles & dramas at work so many people have got themselves into a state, I'm doing my bit to keep everyone calm .

Other more important news , Buttercup got herself up this morning & had a dirt bath!! Hopefully this is the turning point, Florence is now showing signs of going broody, fortunately she's a girl who likes her food so hopefully she will at least keep getting up to eat!
My cat is loosing big clumps of fur , that's a bit of a worry but he's very bright & happy in himself

Kev is setting up at the Norfolk show today, hopefully he will get set up before the rain!

I really need to get in the garden to do some weeding etc, I don't seem to have had much spare time recently , hopefully at the weekend I will find a couple of hours

Enjoy your day

 

Crikey, you *must* be bad

 

Good evening, WW'ers

Been under par a bit today but we all have times like that; no doubt tomorrow I'll be up to speed once more.

Had a wonderful phone call today: #1 Son got his finals results today and, suffice to say, he is now an Honours Degree Graduate Most amazingly of all, in every aspect of his Mandarin module (reading, writing, speaking) he scored in the 80%+ bracket (he isn't the language degree son either ). He never went to Uni to learn another language, but he and a friend thought it might be a bit of a giggle (way back in their first semester, as Freshers). He was the only one of his intake to see it through to the finals. I am *so* proud of him! He's the one who has had such a bumpy year: being sent to Coventry by his housemates (who all dropped out before their finals); the unfortunate incident when he was attacked on his way home ... such a worry! Then, most recently, we've had the is he/isn't he coming home hokey cokey and now ... well, now he's back to ... reviewing his options As I told him earlier, there may be many who will graduate with the same degree and even same degree mark as him, but, that Mandarin will be his Unique Selling Point in the employment market

@Beckie76 - hurrah for Buttercup! Hope Florence's love of food overcomes her biorhythms.
Sorry to hear about your cat. Have you changed his diet recently? Is he up to date with his worming? Hoping it resolves itself very soon!

@moyra - did you take Shy Knees advice and contact your surgery? Are they able to give you a different brand of medicine?

Healing vibes for all who need them and miles of smiles for all xxMxx

 

Nice one @"M"
