Over 50's Wales Club

My grandson went to America last week with mates to visit LA,NY etc but we have just been told they have had to cut the trip short and come home ASAP
Its so depressing reading the paper or watching the news.My only worry is getting my Tesco order
Mainly overcast today and I was looking forward to the Rugby later. OOHH Well
Keep safe xxx

Been out visiting today-some idiotic drivers about.
Son no2 was due to fly to LA today- there for a conference but decided against it.BA were very good and he can fly there instead in June(when the next conference is).He also had all of his US dollars back in sterling from Tesco so BA and Tesco are to be congratulated on their service.

Played bowls this morning, but expect it will be for the last time for a while. Lots of elbow bumping instead of handshaking. No rugby to watch this afternoon :frowning:

Light rain here .
I see the government want over seventies to stay indoors for the next 2 months !!I’ll be ok I’ve been sort of self- isolating for over a year . lol
Keep safe xxx

Sat with a very well behaved Badger faced lamb on my lap in Church this morning, for the annual Lambing Service at Llandeilo Graban. Thought you might all enjoy one of the readings.

We Like Sheep by Wilf Ward

Sheep will stray together through bank or stream or hollow,
Just one will find the weakest place, and all the rest will follow.
Sheep will take no tempting, no clinging to their master,
Another voice will sound as sweet and to a sweeter pasture.
Sheep are never free from danger, always prone to plunder,
Stolen, lost or set upon, no matter what their number.
Lord, make me understand and keep myself from falling,
Not to follow other sheep but hear my Shepherd calling.

Lovely sunny morning,quite a bit of frost on the grass.
Dentist at 9.50 for a check up,then going for a long walk to make the most of this fine morning.
Have a good day.

Lovely sunshine here
Had a panic here yesterday, I lost my phone signal and mobiles don’t work well here. Our handiman came down and tried all he could so I was going to get a message to BT today but when I was dusting today I wiggled the wires and it came back on . What a relief
Have a safe one xx

How are you two doing? This seems to be a thread of three atm. Went to the dentist this morning for the next step towards my bridge. Not as bad as I was expecting but I was in such a daze afterwards I forgot to pick up meds from the surgery and had to phone DIL to collect them for me. Managed to get an Asda delivery for next Wednesday, hope we can hold out until then…

Dreary old morning.
Went Tesco shopping early yesterday morning(7.30).Got the things I needed so I’m ok for a few days.Then took pup for a check on his scar after his op-vet has signed him off.
My little g.granddaughter was upset yesterday cause she couldn’t come to Mamgu’s house.We had a video chat and she asked if I could go to see her in her house if she couldn’t come here!Difficult to explain to a three year old what’s going on.
Yes-Sue it’s three of us against the world!!
Keep safe.

Its a wet one here , so just chilling out .Glad at least the two of you keep me company
Stay safe,scary times xxx

So cross. Just signed into Asda to add a few things to next week’s order only to discover that they claim I hadn’t finalised it so they cancelled it. Booked another for 3rd April but still can’t finish the checkout - and can’t get through to the helpline. Grrrr! Think I’ll go to town early tomorrow and forage.

My order is due tomorrow cross fingers . I’ve had to go in every day and check because availability changes by the hour . Couldn’t get eggs !!
Overcast and damp here but still walkers on the beach .
My grandson got home from USA ok but was put on lockdown in the hotel in NY for the last few days and then ushered through the airport and not able to buy a drink nor duty-free !

Lovely sunshine this morning but chilly.
Son no1 went shopping for me yesterday,got most of the things on the list but he couldn’t get eggs either Jac.Fancied making Welsh cakes but will hang on to the half dozen eggs I’ve got.Think I’ll go shopping in the morning,usually go early anyway before the ā€œcrowdsā€
Enjoy the sunny day.

Expedition to the local Co-op this morning. Managed to get most on my list except for milk! Luckily I can manage for a bit and one of my carers will try and get some for me tomorrow. I was quite shocked at how empty the shelves and freezers were, but as I was departing a Co-op lorry pulled in, so let’s hope that will fill some shelves up for other folks. That poor critical care nurse brought tears to my eyes this morning.

One thing we’re not going to go short of is eggs. Several big sheds of laying hens locally and they have their own little hut to sell from in the village.

Tesco just delivered and I was very pleased . The man didn’t come in but all the food was in bags so I just carried them in. Some things I ordered weren’t available so they sent me more expensive things at no extra cost so great

Not a bad day . I’m wondering if my daughter will call down . She hasn’t rung yet . My handyman will take recycling down if she doesn’t
Bit of a blow that the soaps wont be on as often!! Keep safe xxx

Nice sunny morning again-off to the shop(s) soon.
Will report back later.

Nice and sunny here.
I had a really bad night because of a ?trapped nerve in my foot,really painful so I think I will have a nap later.
Keep safe xx

Hope your foot is better and you’ve managed to get a sleep-Jac.
Got all i needed in Morrisons-even eggs.Strange to see two security guards walking around the store,there’s usually one at the entrance looking at the cctv.
Lovely to be able to dry the washing out on the line.

Lovely day today. Had a load of washing blowing in the sun and wind and didn’t have to put the heating on until 4.30 pm. The lambing crew arrived this morning with empty cake tins and casserole, luckily I had a cake for them - and a tin of chocs left over from Christmas. Will do them a turkey/chicken curry tomorrow. I’ve downloaded Wolf Hall on to my i-pad so am attempting to get to grips with that.

Lovely sunshine here
My daughter did call down on Fri but not sure if she is coming today with all the news .
Had a really bad night again so I’m shattered ,fit for nothing . I ended up watching a Town like Alice in the night because I couldn’t get to sleep .
My granddaughter who lives in Liverpool has a birthday next weekend . She also has a young baby . My daughter and S-I-l want to visit in their campervan but not sure what they should do
