Just thought I would visit the Land of Song and see how you all are? Am planning a trip to Conwy in the Autumn. I have an artist friend who lives there.
Its pouring here and looks as if its in for the day .No plans but think some of the family might visit later . Have a good day xxx
Dismal day-weather and mood wise.
Sue-theyāre taking the old mattress away when they deliver the new one.
Hi Silver Tabby, hope you enjoy your visit to N. Wales. Fingers crossed you have good weather.
Rhosyn - I did realise that - after I posted.
Have done absolutely nothing today, apart from putting the bins out!.
Rain this morning.
Hairdresser coming soon.Taking dog to vet at 5-thatās my exciting day!
Raining here as well and Iāve got nothing planned .Even less exciting than yours Rhosyn lol xxx
Well at least itās been dry today, but so cold when we went out this morning. I was awake at 4.30 am, drinking tea at 6 and will probably be back in bed by 9.30 this eveningā¦ Had the heating on last night and just wondering whether to go and put it on now. āFlaming Juneā Huh!
Got caught in a real downpour earlier.
Dentist at 8.45.One more appointment next week then my treatment will be complete thank goodness.
Its nice and sunny here but none too warm . I had my big thick dressing gown yesterday evening ., its crazy
My window could do with a clean , Iāve had a seagull spitting over it trying to get me to take more food out but the forecast is heavy rain tomorrow so I think Iāll leave it . Have a good one xxx
Went over to visit youngest son this morning before the rain started. Heās taking the roof off his bungalow and making it into a house. Think he may have picked the wrong week for the weather. While I was there a lorry arrived with the felt and tiles so I have no idea where they are going to park cars for a while as the drive is full! Before I got back home it started raining and has only stopped about a half hour ago.
Middle son has had his stitches out and is going back to Abergavenny next Tuesday for a check. As long as thereās no infection should be OK, though I imagine heāll need some physio to rebuild the muscle.
Slept well on my new mattress last night,missed the dip in the old one!
Watching Trooping of the Colour-friendās grandson is taking part,doubt if Iāll be able to pick him out among all those soldiers marching.
Thereās a vintage steam show on the outskirts of the village today and tomorrow and the dragon bike ride passes through the village tomorrow-someone hasnāt planned that very well.Thankfully I went shopping early this morning and havenāt got to go out in the car tomorrow.
Nice and dry here but a bit breezy . I just got around to cleaning the seagull spit off my window so thatās my lot.
H/S have been around and they were going to close the flats down unless we do loads of work in the corridors . We have to have our bedroom and bathroom windows boarded up so no ventilation and all our front doors changed and the meter cupboards changed to fire proof ones.We have only got to 20th Aug to get it all done and if anyone refuses the rest of us will be evicted . Anyone want a lodger ?.Its getting paid out of our maintainance money but we will have to get a loan as well so the maintainance will have to be increased . I only had new windows last year so gutted. Suppose after Grenfell we should be glad they are on the ball
What on earth do you mean Jac about having your windows boarded up? I can understand the bit about fireproof meter cupboards, but why would you board up windows?
Dreadful morning this morning, pouring with rain and itās the YFC County Rally. Middle son took Jamie, heās stock judging and taking part in a blindfold obstacle course. Luckily the day has improved considerably so perhaps they wonāt get too wet. I took Chris swimming, but have done absolutely nothing else. (Hurty foot today, so thatās my excuse)
Hi Sue, We can replace the widows with glass ones but we wont be able to open them into the corridor . There are lights in the corridor which come on once anyone comes out of their door so a bit of a nuisance because it wakes you up . They decided it may be better just the board them up then it would be dark in the room . ??Iāll just go with the flow .
It was raining earlier but stopped now but its not very warm
Have a good day xxx
Do you mean to say you donāt have a window on an outside wall in your bedroom?
Went to Church this morning and we had a really nasty shower luckily while we were inside, but the sun is shining again now.
Sunny so far this morning.
Going to Swansea today to hit the shops and lunch with a friend.Luckily we like the same sort of shops.
Have a good day.
Not really Sue . The corridor runs the full length of the flats and the window in the bedroom opens into the corridor . There are windows in the corridor opening to the outside .It seems as though its really a fire trap so we have to take advice . I donāt mind the bedroom being dark but I will miss not being able to have an open window ,same in the shower room
No rain here so Iāve got some washing out but the forecast isnāt good .
Enjoy your day xxx
Jac I am gobsmacked! Canāt believe there is no ventilation in the bedroom - dark doesnāt matter too much but fresh air???
Did my stint in the Cathedral in Brecon for a couple of hours this morning. Meet some fascinating people. Then I managed to get a parking space outside the Bank - deep joy. Picked up a few odds and ends and then home by 1.30 pm. Have been doing my tax returns and discovered that the Bank had stopped sending me statements (without so much as a by-your-leave) so gave them a piece of my mind about that. Spent the afternoon printing off statements up to date. Grrr!
I will miss the window opening Sue . I have mine open a little bit even in the Winter ;Oh well, will have to get used to it
Not actually raining but very damp looking out there.Just defrosted the fridge .Something wrong with it because the ice making bit freezes up too much and often .Not doing much else .Have a good one xx
Youāre very philosophical Jac - Iād be devastated.
Horrible day. Havenāt done much this morning except make a cake. DIL just phoned to say theyād be late picking Chris up because theyāre going to shear some more sheep (theyāve been in the shed since yesterday so they will at least be dry). Consequently the cake will be going down thereā¦
Off to the cinema in Hay this evening to see live streaming of the ballet āRomeo & Julietā.
