Over 50's Wales Club

Reminder from DVLA this morning to renew over 70 driving licence.Will do it on line later.Good job they send reminders!

I did my hoovering today and my hair was soaking wet .Knackered now so not doing much else .
Our grass is like straw, not nice to look out at . Lovely to see the folk enjoying the sea though .

Took Rob’s truck to the garage this morning and went on up to the Royal Welsh only to discover that the person I was supposed to be meeting had called in sick! Managed to get a car from the garage to go home, only for them to phone me an hour later to say that the brake calipers were seized and would need replacing (over Ā£200 EACH), OOO-ER! Parts not in stock so van is still in Builth and I am driving an aged Avensis - just like a tank…

Cars are a mixed blessing Sue . When mine ā€œdiesā€ I think I will pack in driving . Its probably cheaper to use a taxi for what I need because its expensive to keep a car on the road .
Overcast and a bit cooler today so I’ve cleaned the window and put washing out so that’s my exciting day

Quite agree Jac. Well the van is home, but still no aircon as there is a split hose and they can’t get the part until later in the month (van is too old!). So here we are, hottest summer in years and no aircon. Grrr…

Cloudy this morning.
Taking my dog for a hair cut by 9.30 then going shopping-granddaughter has requested Salmon for this evening.
"What part of Croatia are you from?Wales!"This is doing the rounds after last night’s match.

New driving licence arrived this morning-took all of 2days!

Had some very welcomed rain yesterday afternoon.Sunn this morning.
Having a new front door fitted this morning.Coming about 8.30 to start.It’ll take a couple of hours-3hours tops.

Thunderstorms forecast for us, but it’s wall to wall sunshine again out there, so a thunderstorm will be a big surprise. Off to Cardiff this afternoon with granddaughter, a friend and her granddaughter and another friend to see ā€œWar Horseā€. (Have seen it already in London, but can’t wait to see it again).

Enjoy Sue xx Sun is coming out after a grey start and a nice cool breeze is up .
Daughter came to visit so my plan of sorting out my pots on balcony didn’t go to plan . We had a good catch-up so that was nice xx

Forgot to tell you I’d had another fall on Tuesday . I was going down to the car when I fell over my own feet . I was just outside the door in the passage . Luckily my neighbour was in and she got hold of the handiman to pick me up OMG . My knee ops just won’t let me up when on the floor and I did have sloppy shoes on (they are in the bin now) Got a few nice bruises !!!

You poor thing Jac.Hope you’re on the mend now.
Went to see my friend who broke her hip in April(?).She looks a lot better than she did when I saw her last month.She’s moving better too.
Don’t know why but there were a lot of white vans on the M4.
In for the day now-going to watch Wimbledon.

Well we did have at least an hour and a half of solid rain yesterday - amazing how much is in the water butts!

Trip to Cardiff went like clockwork (rather warm clockwork). Managed to park up and be in the restaurant 10 mins before the table was booked for. Show was awesome - I’d forgotten a lot of it but didn’t cry as much this time! Home by midnight, a cup of tea and a good night’s sleep.

Hope your bruises are better Jac.

Lovely day , sunny but a nice breeze .
My sheets are out and just changing the bed I was really sweating and had to have a few ā€œsit downsā€.
Hope you have a good onexx

Another lovely day, but the forecast isn’t so good for tomorrow. Fields around are desperate for rain, so let’s hope we have a decent amount. Fopr once in my life the laundry basket is empty, don’t suppose it will last long though!

Cool and cloudy this morning.Rain later?
Staying in today.Have a good day.

Same here Rhosyn, I’ve even shut the small windows so back to normal .
I’ve run around with the hoover and nearly fell again out on the balcony . I must learn not to rush so much .

Had a surprise phone call this morning from my cousin. She and her husband were in Aberystwyth and suggested they come to see us on their way home. I had arranged to do a turn in the Cathedral so suggested they went home via Brecon and we could meet up for lunch. All went according to plan and it was extra special to see them as it was their wedding anniversary (I was a bridesmaid). Shower of rain on the way home but it soon stopped.

Much cooler today and I’m out for pub -lunch as usual. Have a good one xx

Had a light shower while taking dog for a walk this morning but soon cleared up.
Met friends for coffee,in for the rest of the day-no excuse to sit down-no tennis to watch!
