Chit Chat Thread (Part 2)

Thanks all, for get well wishes. I have just got up from bed, had maybe just over an hour in there. Having a cuppa then really must shower. Holly will be wanting her midday walk soon.

The beauty of retirement, eh, to do what one wants?

Morning all.

Think I am better today.

I hope to go into town, visit the library (some books in, some out, there is one on reserve ready for collection). A bakery, for a couple of their soft rolls, for lunch. And just a wander about.

Morning Jazzi, glad you are feeling better today.
Looks like a dull day today.
Got GP appointment this morning.
Have a nice day all.

Good luck.

I got my credit this morning, from the council. Shame it’s already been spent, several times over. :rofl::rofl:

Good morning all.
Oh dear oh dear. You poor girls and your pain-full sufferings.
Not like us men who hold it in. Well that is what my wife used to say.
Right now for the bad news. Something had a go at my tadpole pond what ever it was collapsed the wire mesh that was covering it. I think it possibly was a Fox. There does not seem to be as many tadpoles as there was. I can’t see foxes eating tadpoles.
Just recovered it with boards and more mesh.
Weather here cloudy now but still pleasantly warm.

Morning all , @ Emjay could it have been a Cat or Heron ?

Its rather grey out and a little bit nippy , I need to go and buy Chicken Breast , and Mince,so that a walk down to local Co-op.
Before or After I want to clip my Conifers , so today is set out

Have a wonderful day …

Morning everyone.
Where’s the sun gone? It’s gone all dull and cloudy this morning :frowning_face:
Well after a fairly busy day yesterday, I don’t have a lot planned today, apart from going up to see my daughter’s dog later. We did start bringing her round to us on our days for her (a neighbour takes her out two days a week), but the last time we brought her here, she couldn’t seem to settle all day. Strange because all her life this has been her second home, she’s very familiar with it, but I suspect as she’s getting so old now, she just wants to be in her own home, in her own bed.

Good afternoon everybody.

Tony & I overlay this morning. I had a young man coming to measure up for some joinery work at 10.30 & I woke up at 10.20, leapt out of bed put my dressing gown on & there he was!!

All sorted now. Ady had just called to take Tony out for the afternoon & the first thing I am going to do is get dressed.

Later, I’ve got a lovely black dress to pack up & return to Roman Originals. I wanted it for Paula’s surprise 40th birthday party. It was lovely but not right for me.

Things are still not straight from the plumber - I think I’ll do a bit of tidying this afternoon.

Have a good day all …

morning all , another nippy morning ,
Ive a food delivery today ,no other plans .
Have a wonderful day everyone

Good morning everybody.

I want to do an Aldi shop today. I never used to be an Aldi fan but I’m converted now.
Their food is really nice quality.

I’ve a Joe Brown parcel to pick up from a Pickup point & a dress to send back to Roman Originals.

We might go a walk round the local pond later. Tony likes a walk even though he can’t walk far these days.
When I’m not so busy I’ll get the mobility scooter out for him & we’ll go a long one.

Have a good day all…

Good morning all.
Still quite cold out, no sign of the sun. I think the weather forecasters lie or just guess.
I believe it was a fox that collapsed the mesh cover on the tadpole pond yesterday. Saw one on my garden camera. I don’t think that it had any tadpoles, and all it wanted was a drink of water. Think about it. With no rain, how can foxes and other creatures get water.
I am going to put out something with water in it, for those that need it.
Nothing yet planed for today.

Morning all.

Yes, still quite chilly. Had my heating on and off in the night and Holly felt cold when we cuddled earlier. Resisting putting it back on now, though.

Good idea, Emjay, leaving something out for the foxes to drink from. Does seem awhile now, since we have had rain. (Shhhhh, don’t remind the weather!! Hate walking the dog when it is hammering it down.)

No idea what I fancy doing. 9am and I am yet to do anything constructive. Might move myself now.

Morning everyone, well the sun’s back to day, hooray! Still chilly though, got the living room fire on.
Really should do some shopping today, running out of breakfast cereal. My heart’s not in it though, cos I really want to get on with some sewing - what with going up to see our daughter’s dog in the middle of the day, then picking granddaughter up from school, I feel as if I never have a good long stretch to get my teeth into a project. Even at weekends I’m running around taking daughter and granddaughter to the pool for lessons/swimming sessions. Think I’m going to have to encourage them to use the buses, now that they seem to be back to normal after a long period of service cuts.

@Emjay it made me feel sad to think of the fox trying to get some water - so pleased you’ll be putting some water out for the wild creatures :blush:

Good morning all.

Off into Town this morning, Lowestoft look around the shops, will be there for a few hours.

Have a nice day all.

Good morning all.
The sun is shining but there is a cold easterly wind. Nice in the shade from the wind.
It was quite pleasant strolling round the fields with Minnie though.
Nothing planed for me, but I expect I shall find things to do.

Morning chit chatters, it’s a lovely bright sunny day, but still very chilly - better to enjoy it from inside a nice warm room.

Off out in a minute for my granddaughter’s weekly swimming lesson, then back home with nothing planned for the rest of the day. I’m sure I’ll find something :wink:

Good morning everybody.

I want to spend some time reorganising some cupboards.

No other plans - might go a short walk later…

Morning all.

I shall probably start thinking about my little caravan break, from Monday. What washing to do, what to take (and what not). I’ve stayed in some in the past where the cookware has been grim, to say the least. I even remember going into a supermarket to buy a new frying pan, might even have added a saucepan. Took items home, whatever I bought.

Good morning all , the sun is already beaming , yesterday afternoon turned into a scorcher , so I planted some Cosmos out ,they survivedthe night and so Ive planted some more out this morning .

a slug in my Green house had almost eaton a Lobelia seedling and had started on a Petunia, so found that and gave it a salt bath .

Ive a visitor today , we most likly go a walk , finding somewhere where theres no other dog walkers is a Challenge , My poor dog has been attacked 7 times now in the past few years ,and some dogs come snapping at my heels too , which is scary …
None of them are on leads, mine is kept on a lead always when out .

The Birds in my garden are singing away today .makes for a nice start to the day .

Have a wonderful day everyone .

Good morning all.
Overcast but the sun is trying to break through.
Done the walk with Minnie around the fields.
Nothing planed for today so will just let it happen.
