      The rain wasn't forecast to reach us until this evening Shiney, it often peters out completely by the time it gets over here anyway, so I knew it was fairly safe to assume a dry day.

      Turns out I was right too, shed is all done and dusted, I've been out on my bike and run those errands for Mrs T and it stayed dry all day. :)

      @liliana Here's another one for tomorrow. :grphg: I'm sure all your friends here on GC will be thinking of you.

              Good morning all, chaos reigns in this flat. Bally fitter only got the wrong size sink, it is too wide for the top. So no water on except in the bathroom. At this rate he wont be finished before Christmas.
              Have a good day everyone, nice to see you Lili, hope it goes well tomorrow. God Bless :wub2::grphg:

                Morning all, hope everyone is well.

                We had a short, sharp downpour here yesterday evening (just after I posted that it had stayed dry all day). :heehee: Not complaining though, the garden needs all the rain it can get at the moment.

                Might take Mrs Trunky out for lunch today, she's moving about reasonably well now and needs a change of scenery after being stuck in the house for several days. I keep lecturing her about not overdoing things too soon, not sure she's taking any notice though. :noidea:

                Hope you all have a good day.

                  Aloha everyone,

                  The forecast rain didn't appear. We took a friend out for a meal last night for her 80th :dbgrtmb:. She doesn't look a day older than 60 :blue thumb:

                  @moyra I hope they come back today with the correct sink. :grphg:

                  @Trunky have a good lunch. :thumbsup:

                  I've just had a chat with a blue tit that was sitting on my office windowsill and watching me work. I think he called me a twit :scratch: - or he said something like that :noidea:

                  I'll get a bit more tidying up done in the garden this morning and then off to the bridge club this afternoon. Mrs Shiney has someone coming round for lunch who worked as her assistant about thirty or forty years ago. I'll keep out of their way and let them reminisce on their own. :)

                  Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                  Aloha!

                    Good morning (just!) WW'ers :spinning:

                    We finally got the rain too, but in short sharp showers throughout the night.

                    @moyra - hope all the work is completed for you today; it certainly is taking long enough!

                    @Trunky - have a lovely lunch with Mrs T. I'm sure she'll enjoy the change in scenery; it's no fun being stuck indoors.

                    @liliana - special thoughts for you today :grphg:

                    @CanadianLori - have all your visitors gone now?

                    @shiney - enjoy your Bridge Club; we'll buy into the excuse that you are merely keeping out of the way ;) :heehee:

                    Smiles and vibes for all xxMxx

                      Evening all:spinning:.

                      The day went really well. The funeral went perfectly. It was nice as the family all sat
                      round togther and recalled all the things they could about Peter. The champagne flowed, and the
                      nibbles eaten.All in all, a day to remember.

                      Right , off to bed, Lulu, my puppy is already asleep.

                              Aloha everyone,

                              @liliana we're pleased the day went well and best wishes from us :grphg:

                              @moyra I hope they turn up with the right sink today :fingers crossed:

                              It's a lovely morning today. :dbgrtmb: I was wandering around out there at 7 a.m. and it feels a lot milder than the 54.8F it's showing on the weather station. There's no breeze and a very soft mist with clear skies and the sun coming up. The birds were waiting for me to fill up the bird feeder.

                              We have a new magpie in the garden that has been here for about two weeks. I've named him Scruffy as that describes him very well from the neck up. :)

                              Mrs Shiney was pleased last night as she had entered the advanced section of a flower arranging competition and won best in show. I'll see whether she has taken any photos to put on here. Apparently he said that he would have liked to give all the entries 10 out of 10 as they were so good but he couldn't because there was one outstanding one. so he gave Mrs S 10 and all the others 9. :blue thumb:

                              Keep well and have a great day :biggrin:

                              Aloha!

                                Morning all, bit of a dull and damp start here but it should brighten up later. Hope everyone is well.

                                Took Mrs Trunky out for lunch yesterday at a small cafe a couple of miles out of town. We hadn't been there before, it was nothing fancy, but Mrs T was just glad to be out of the house for a change of scenery. As a special treat, we popped in to the household waste site on the way there to drop off a few things for recycling - I really know how to treat a girl! :snork:

                                Have a good day. :)
