Apples, ginger and oranges. Three of your 5 a day.
Morning Dull n Cloudy here now, it was lovely and sunny when I got up. Sooooo, I bit the bullet and stripped the bed for washing, nearly knackered myself fighting with that duvet cover but I won… Eventually. Bedding is on the ropes but I keep checking the sky.
Out for dinner tonight as we didn’t go last Saturday.
Enjoy your weekend folks.

Bright day. Mrs Dex went to a funeral to cheer herself up, but we might go out later somewhere among the living.
No sign of my younger cat, with his poorly paw. Hopefully he’ll turn up soon.
Duvet covers, eh Rox? Do you do the inside out method or the shove in right way round? I prefer the former.
Am reading a short book of some weird American court cases… the McDonald’s hot coffee case … that sort of thing.
There’s always a backstory behind the headlines!
Have a lovely day, each and everyone on here, and indeed everywhere (providing, of course, you’re not ranting at others 
)
I hope poorly paw cat soon returns and all is well …
I’ve been for a flu jab and in view of that feel I ought to pamper myelf… so I shall.
I going to snuggle up with my kindle but I’m into detective stories. Cheap boxed sets. I work my way through them like an addict. I’ve got no class whatsoever. :blush
Oh … and the weather is beautiful.

Veronica Heley’s book series are pleasant too Morty. Think a fair few of them might be free on unlimited, but not sure as it’s been a while since I looked.
Her main two series were based in Ealing and Kensington respectively, which made them homely for me as that’s roughly where I was raised and went to school in.
PS - still no sign of the cat 
Just a thought, years ago when our cat went missing I waited till the evening when traffic had quieted down and walked about the neighborhood calling him, and asking anyone I met, it was quiet at that time and I heard him meowing back to me, he was stuck in a shed. Ask your neighbours to look in theirs for you, and check any sounds in bushes ect.

I’ve completed the majority of my steps today’s walking round the local roads, including completing a litter pick which enticed some more folk to warm to my search.
We’re convinced that he has several “homes” as it’s quite a cat area. So he’s most likely holed up somewhere safe for the time being and will return when he’s feeling a bit better. He’s quite nomadic like that.

Just had another walk (and litter picked while I did so… my neighbourhood is going to be slick and spam soon 
). It’s deffo a better time for cats to come out and play, but sadly not my little tigger.
That’s about your cat, Dex. Will your neighbours help ?

I’ve got a few looking out for him, thanks.
Still early days. He often goes awol for a couple or so days, so we wouldn’t normally worry. It’s just that with a poorly paw, we’re naturally a tad concerned.
Will knock on a few doors tomorrow. Trouble is we have no idea how far his usual stomping ground is.
Well I wish you luck, Dex.

Good morning showers here this morning ugh. So housework and knitting today for me. Niece is coming later and we’re going out to dinner. Dex hope your cat turns up when he’s hungry but as usual some one always feeds them.
@Dextrous63 … any word about poorly paw?
I guess Dex is out looking ?
I’m having a quiet day just trawling around the forums and doing absolutely nothing.
I went out again, with my litter picking stick and bag, as well as a lovely hat I wear which makes me look like a yokel. This is quite a useful since people can’t work out if I’m a halfwit and thus harmless, or someone who might be disturbed and is out doing his community service for some minor (possibly violent) infraction.
Thus I am generally left alone.
This has also helped today as I call out my cat’s name quite loudly and passers by give me a wide berth and (pointedly) don’t look at me, which means I don’t get embarrassed.
I think that might depend on what you’re cats name is.
It’s a good idea … litter picking.

You’ll like it … we call him Tigger. 
The cat’s back, but still in agony. Hope to get him to the vet tomorrow.
A result, or maybe a half result. Good luck with the vet.

Poor Puss, so good you have him back. Hopefully the vet has strong painkillers for him, maybe even a pain injection straight away. I hate it when an animal is in pain.

Morning, Very early morning 2am and I can’t sleep so sat at the fire with a latte. Hope I can get up again for the pool at six. Had a text from the landscaping guy says he’ll be here around nine, hope to hell he is, I know he couldn’t help being ill but it was getting exasperating waiting every day.
Will do some cooking for the freezer while he’s here as I will need to be around, can catch up with other things once he’s finished and I can get out.
Enjoy your day everyone.
