Morning!

Hi Joan I hope you aren't too bad today? Enjoy your trip into town are you going for anything special? I am seeing my friend tomorrow she is coming here to see me with the dogs I think. I thank God every day that she had them to keep her going. You above all people will understand that I know 😕 You must be missing Sue desperately. Lucy is definitely on the mend now. Thank you and take care ((())) xxx

Morning Reshmi

Well done spotting your Mum's potential serious hypo and acting promptly. A good rest seems to have helped her too. Do you all not get enough sleep when LA visits? I expect he is up very early - small children usually are🙄

Big Babu is a Legend now!? That's absolutely terrifying😮 LA! and Mima is Mrs Pig after Peppa pig's Mum. That's really cute. The whole house has been taken over by the tiny tyrant. Roll on late afternoon that's all I can say you will all be very glad to get to bed tonight😉

Sounds so full on with looking after your Mum, keeping LA entertained not forgetting bin emptying duties. I didn't miss your rhyming couplet there😉

How are you for Blearios? I hope you have enough just for today's one last breakfast. If not I'm sure Toady will share some with you. She can send Sleek over.

I hope you manage to get to the group and enjoy some adult time away from family - just for a while

Take care Reshmi ((())) xxx

Morning Stuartknee yes not long now until you get to see the Dr i hope you have a list of questions ready. Neat tonic water? Ah yes what is it in the that helps?

Morning Toady

You are coping extremely well with the neighbourly nocturnal noises. I am very impressed indeed.

Sleek says it's doughnuts definitely not donuts ever she can spell that. Not bringing a posh drink today she thinks normal tea goes best with doughnuts😊

Very good sorting out brick a brac and books too that's great that they are taking everything. My bags of clothing are often a good mix too between 'iffy' and really good just didn't fit/look right on me.

Sounds as though the loft is progressing very nicely Toad you must be pleased - glad to hear it will stay tidy too. Sleek is after you putting a skylight up there so she can 'wotch the starrz'.

Lucy is much better and I haven't caught it so that's good she will probably be back at work Friday morning which is her next shift anyway.

It finally actually is Wednesday 😊 Half way. To what i don't know, but half-way it is!

Have a good day Toady foodbank duties for me today.😊((())) xxx

hi Toni Joan toady and all

How are you all?

Sorry tiring day in the sauna

LA has gone home

Mxt tomorrow 🤢

Thanks Toni mum actually asked for my help

Then I helped her

Went to group talked about eczema lol

Ok good night all tc xx

toady

Hi all 👋 just a v quick wave - didn't have the best night and found the next door work more trying again today, also there were developments (or suspected developments at any rate 😬) that were unsettling too. Sorry to be cryptic nothing sinister or anything, even if I'm right, partly working on guesswork at the moment but a bit of an unwelcome plot twist, oh dear it gets more soap opera by the minute. Back tomorrow catch up then hopefully, love to all, hope to see Joan back in too having found an unsent post.

Kettle will be on at all hours I think so anyone who's awake pull up a chair & join me ☕😘 xx

Stuartknee

Good morning everyone I hope everybody had a pain free & slept all night? I didn't up at 3am babÿ next door woke me up got a good set of lungs on her.

good morning Toni

Morning Joan. I am presuming that your post didn't send yesterday. So annoying when you open up and there it is isn't it? My friend is coming to see me today with or without the dogs I don't know. I have a man coming to fix the washer so she might not because Pippa, the girl, doesn't like anything like that. Strangers you know what they can be like. Hope you have a good day ((())) xxx

Morning Reshmi

How are you and your Mum are you still 'in recovery' after your tiny tyrant invasion? I bet you all slept like logs didn't you?😉

I am very pleased your Mum actually asked for help when she felt poorly and of course you were able to act quickly and efficiently.

Well done getting to the group. That was an interesting conversation about eczema! I expect RR has had it for years far worse than anyone. He will have tried every treatment even travelling to America for some sort of stem cell transplant and probably written a self help management book too. Oh and of course the book also available in audio book😁 Possibly one of the cures will be giant chocolate buttons.

Take care hope MTX not too bad ((())) xxx

Morning Toady

aha! there is intrigue now. Sleek knows what you suspect and refuses point blank to tell me! Her own Mummy!😮

Possibly because i took her to the vet for her arthritis injection and she also had her wormer and 3 monthly flea treatment so is a tad indignant about it all. 😣

I do wonder what it is you suspect I have no doubt time will confirm it one way or the other in due course. Hope the plot twist is not as unwelcome as you fear. Sleek shakes her head slowly next to me - she's reading over my shoulder yet again🙄

My friend is coming later on this morning so I need to get the hoover out🙄

Take care and hope your day is a good one ((())) xxx

Thanks Stuartknee I slept ok pretty well - ok the usual awake on and off yes in some pain, but did my best to ignore it. Oh dear you have a baby next door! That's where the crying comes from. I hope it's a new baby and in time settles down. My eldest daughter and her wife just had their first (probably last too) she is very quiet I've hardly heard a peep! they are very aware as they live in a terrace so have neighbours either side.

Take care

dachshund

Good morning everyone

Sorry I didn’t post yesterday I went out with the dogs early so I could go to town. I phoned the Doctors last night I’m fed up with my sore throat it just hurts swallowing food I don’t want to eat. I have a appointment at 3-00 today.

Toady (()) the house next door must be posh do you think all the work they are doing. I hope it soon stops for your sake.

Toni (()) that’s good Lucy is feeling better (()) how is poor little Arya (()) have a good day with your friend she’s doing well. I hope your washing machine can be fixed. Have a good day love to Paul (()) and Charley (()) and Annie (()) and Arya (()) and Lucy (()) and Tia (()) and Kari (()) and your friend (()) and your lovely neighbours (())

Reshmi (()) sorry about your mum (()) it was good you realised what was wrong take care

Stuart knee (()) not long to your appointment now good luck

toady

Quick wave to Joan to wish you the best at the Drs, so sorry this is still dragging on, not nice at all for you 😔 xx

Back in a bit, am ok myself (just about 😬), love to everyone 😘xx

bosh

hi Toni

Happy Diwali to you too 🙏

How are you?

We did indeed sleep like the proverbial logs

My goodness yesterday LA went home and I had a hot shower and was fast asleep when mum phoned to say she’d be home soon 😩

Bless her but I was so tired I practically burst into tears anyway very good overnight sleep which was the most important thing thanks

Yes thanks so much about mum 👍👍

Eczema book I like that

The nice lady called T who is on crutches came, one of her son has very severe eczema unfortunately

I was saying that I used to have pretty bad eczema too when younger

RR has found a green tea soap that cures all eczema - plus the chocolate buttons of course lol 🤷‍♀️

Mum is ok today thankfully 👍

Mxt not too bad yet 🙏

Have a good afternoon Toni tc xx

👋greetings toady and Joan

Proper posts after ablutions hopefully xx

Ps Diwali lights xx

toady

Hi all 👋

Ok here but think you could safely say I'm tired 🤪 didn't get to sleep til well gone 2, so Stuartknee and I nearly did a 'Box & Cox' shift for sleeping 😣.

Right frog, well (trying to be a bit circumspect here til I have my facts straight) the lowdown such as it is, is that I think the new (but possibly temporary renters or whatever) people are in, let's just say that I'm not that happy but I could be less happy, and see what happens next. Whatever time they came in they were certainly up very late into the early hours and wandering around the place, hence the lack of sleep. It was a bit of a low point I have to say but have sort of rallied, a bit, I can't tell you how much what you said about Sleek made me laugh this morning 😂 you may well have saved an old toad from the brink. Just so funny thank you 😘. I will be sure to brief her as to what snippets of gossip she can feel free to pass on 👍️ by the way (and particularly in respect of her having suffered various outrages at the hands of certain veterinary 'quacks' 😉) do tell her that I have an extra week's catazon prime and to get her fishlist out 😂. Hope everyone else ok and that your friend did manage to come over and/or your washer situation is fixed. Nothing else doing here, have a good evening glad to hear Lucy is doing ok :) xx

Hello Joan, hope you have got on alright today and got some advice. I found today I had almost booked a duplicate grocery delivery for tomorrow 😱 I would have needed you to help me out with a couple of custard doughnuts then for sure, so we need you better and able to eat nicely 🤞. No I don't think it will be posh next door 🤨 I think a lot needed doing but I expect they have probably done it on as much of a budget as poss. They have probably done a fair bit of the bigger stuff but of course they might need to start on some other area of the house. Hope you have a good night if you can 😘 xx

Hi to bosh, jolly glad you had a decent night's sleep overnight even if your nap did not go well. I am several hours short myself so if the phantom neighbour is noisy tonight I will be going in the emergency miniature bedsit or biccie cupboard whichever strikes me as the best option at the time 😄. Bit chilly here today if you ask me but your conditions may vary ofc if the sauna is in one of its hotter phases, hope it's not too bad. Must go and put the bins out, one of the many mini moments of glamour in a toad's daily life, like filing the cream crackers (filing system that is, not filing them with a file 😄) and getting out one's bicycle repair kit and checking one's hot water bottle for punctures 😱. Have a good evening hope order has nearly been restored after LA 🤞 and enjoy anything spooky and ooky and halloweeny that comes your way as long as it's not a queue of trick or treaters obvs 👻 :) xx

Love to everyone 😘 xx

and of course a particular wish to @Stuartknee for a better night with your extra trials at the moment. That was an interesting tip about the tonic water is it the quinine maybe 🤔 I get twitching, I shall bear it in mind. xx

bosh

hi young at heart toady

Oh dear a rogue extended sleep 😱

Very ookey

I must admit I needed a drop of gluco - zade to get through today

Dad hogged the bathroom for hours

Waiting for ablutions became like waiting for God(ot)

or something like that

Got a few hours of solitude though

An uninterrupted nap - my goodness

Spent too much time online

But felt relaxed

LA thinks BB may be a lady sometimes lol

Don’t join our gender please BB, I may have to resign haha

I love LA of course but thank goodness I’m just a Mima not one of the mummies haha

Nothing but admiration for those ladies though of course

Sorry I didn’t manage to read everything toady

But were the phantom neighbours exercising in the early hours?

Is this some kind of illegal gym?

Having attacked the chocolate biscuits with a vengeance they adopt desperate measures?

Sleepwalking on the treadmill maybe?

Outrageous

👋Ok good night Toni toady Joan Stuartknee tc xx

Ps a religious unity pic - also just thought it was cute xx

frogmorton

Morning Joan how did you get on at the Drs? I was most worried to hear that your poor throat is still bad after so long😥 The washer was fixed very quickly thanks. He even gave some advice to my friend who has the same washer with a slight issue so she can sort hers without needing to call anyone out! She is doing well which is good much better although it's a memory filled time of year for her. Arya put on weight again when the midwife came yesterday so that is good thanks for asking. Take care ((())) xxx

Morning Reshmi

Our dear friend who is very, very exhausted. I do hope you slept like the proverbial log again last night? A bit of Glucozade will have been essential for you yesterday I should think. Gosh I have all this ahead of me with Arya😮

Nice to chat to someone different at the group I bet, Although I hope she will take RR's advice with a bit of a pinch of salt as they say.😉 Mind you I caboodled green tea soap it and it alleges it can indeed help with eczema and psoriasis!

Noooo! I resign as a woman too if Big Babu is going to join our gender😣 That would be terrible!

Does LA sleep well when he's been to yours? I wonder🤔 I would not be at all surprised if he does. I expect BR was thrilled to have him home to play with though.

Oh gosh your Mum woke you thinking she was being considerate😣 Bless her when all you wanted was Sleeeep😴

Take care and have a good day ((())) xxx

Morning Toady hope all is well at Toad's? I very much hope that your renters were quieter last night and the noise was just a bit of over-excitement about moving in🤞 I am very glad to hear Sleek's escapades cheered you a little.

The printer is whirring in the hall hang on.… ah it's her fish-list she's printing it ready to make use of your extra week of catazon prime. I think she has my debit card too by way of penance for taking her to said Veterinary quacks. Do your best for my bank balance Toady if you can please! Lucy came with us which was lovely actually Sleek was showing her off to the vet. She herself, Sleek not Lucy, is now 73 according to 'the charts' although acts more like maybe 23!

Lucy has gone home, her flatmate is back and she feels much better. I feel stupidly bereft😕

Indian meal out with the foodbank gang last night (I nearly forgot!) which was actually rather nice. I really am not one for going out at night these days. I prefer to be inside in the warm with my cat.

Washer is all fixed and busy working away catching up (heating element???) and the chap was nice he gave my friend some advice on hers (we have the same one) for free so she can sort her own out herself without the call-out charge. 2 for the price of one although I paid😂

Take care Toad have a good day I hope ((())) xxx

PS Toady do you read/listen to audio books much?

A very quick hello to Stuartknee. Just checking in to see how you are doing. Hope next door's baby slept a bit better - you too. Also that the tonic water is still working.

Made is a Diwali platter:

Good morning everyone

Thank you for caring about me I have Thrush in my mouth I have a mouth wash to pick up today

Toady (()) sorry you are having such bad nights (()) the men next door are not caring about you are they. That’s a good job you noticed you had ordered twice. That happened to us last year two vans turned up I just went. Have a good day.

Toni (()) that’s good your washing machine is mended and the man was able to help your friend that was nice of him. Sorry this is a hard time for your friend she is doing well (()) good Lucy feels better to go to her flat nice her friend is back. I can guess how you feel I would be worried about her having a seizure. Sleek is good for 73. That’s good Arya is putting weight on (()) Love to Paul and Charley (()) and Annie (()) and Arya (()) and Lucy (()) and Tia (()) and Kari (()) and your friend (()) and your lovely neighbours (())

Reshmi (()) that’s nice you found someone else to talk to (()) love to your mum (()) have a good day take care

Stuart knee (()) have a good day. Where do you live.

bosh

hi Toni

How are you?
Yes I slept like a log thanks

LA does sleep well here sometimes he gets up a bit on the early side

But he of course goes to bed a lot earlier than us adulks

So it balances out as it were 👍

Yesterday when everyone went out I put thermal clothing quilt and warm bed - covering in a pile in the cold room, had a hot shower and then just slept deeply 👍

Until poor innocent mum woke me with her phone call of course

Yes I will grudgingly admit that RR has a point only joking

But he acted as if he’d cured all skin diseases- Dermatologist RR haha

ok a little poem I brewed up in cost a packet a few days ago

VC Poem
This is called “The Three Baddies”
(Story based on LA’s storybook)
There were three baddies in the woods
The vampire nurse, the phantom neighbour and GI Joe the Physio, he eats baked goods
The vampire nurse drinks test tubes of blood for breakfast lunch and dinner
The phantom neighbour dances all day, eating just cream crackers, he couldn’t get much thinner
These baddies would scare adulks and kids alike
So no one dared enter the woods for a hike

👋greetings toady and Joan

How are you both?

Ablutions- time

Bye for now all tc Xx

toady

Hi all 👋

Tired the second half of today, pass the glucozade 😣 had to settle for an afternoon sleep instead there was no getting around it.

I did sleep last night though frog thanks and yes I think some of the last night's noise was to-ing & fro-ing putting things away maybe. No more concrete news as yet.. I have worn a groove in the floorboards going to look out at what cars have driven in out and whose and what does it mean 😔 nosey I know but this is vital knowledge 😬. Sleek has taken turns thankfully who could suspect a small cat sitting in the window washing her paws, with one eye on the outside 😉. Glad to be able to strike a couple of things off her printed list 😄 (why didn't I, a diehard listmaker, think of that!) because I got what I took the offer up for and need want a lot else. I can't hog her too much though seeing as your house is down one person now, glad Lucy is well enough to go but yes ofc I get it (()). Glad you had a nice sociable evening out 😊. I do listen to lots of audiobooks yes mostly off 'the tube' some downloads etc. Currently relistening to the Diary of a Nobody having read it years ago, I quote from chap 7: "I am afraid we shall have some trouble with our next-door neighbours who came in last Wednesday. Several of their friends, who drive up in dog-carts, have already made themselves objectionable." Ooer! 😱. How nice that your friend had some handy & free advice! I hope it comes in jolly useful. Have a good weekend love to all and well done Arya for her weight going the right way 👍️ :) xx

Hello Joan, sorry to hear that's what the trouble is but it should clear up quickly now with treatment shouldn't it I hope 🤞. I don't know what I would have done with the extra shopping, would they take it away? I suppose not. I couldn't even have stored the frozen & chilled stuff if I wanted to! Next door has not been too bad today, I can't expect quiet from any workmen you can only hammer and drill so quietly can't you! I'd rather they just got on with it quickly. As I said to Toni I'm much more worried about any people's daily habits, any noise from tv's or door bangings & all that. Will have to wait & see. There are a few fireworks here this evening people do them at all days now don't they not just the proper ones, then Diwali too adds in to it. Hope not many for you & the dogs over the next week 🤞 :) xx

Hi bosh, Three Baddies, oh good bit of inspiration 😀 no I'm not going to the woods, though if the phantom neighbour is in the traditional habit of leaving a trail of cracker crumbs to find his way back I may just accidentally on purpose bribe a hedgehog to snuffle them all up 😉. Good work with the bedding arrangements and sleep that you had, I'm trying to get used to a new duvet we are not getting on that will it's a bit heavy & solid rather than one you can curl up in if you know what I mean. Maybe it will improve with time 😄. No I don't think the neighbours were doing anything too unorthodox like midnight treadmill exercising 😄 just as well, you can get a 'stitch' at the stitching hour as we know! Probably putting things in cupboards etc though what wouldn't wait til the morning, I know not 🤷‍♀️. Hope for some half-decent sleep tonight wishing you the same 😊👍️ :) xx

Love to everyone as always 😘 xx

bosh

hi young at heart toady

Glad you enjoyed the poem

I’m glad you’re not going to the woods and that the hedgehog is a multipurpose creature or something like that lol

It’s a complete sauna situation here I’m afraid

Stitching hour pun I like it 👍

I’m afraid I’m wilting like a cabbage 🥬 or a lettuce or something like that

So as Furnace Friday draws to a close I pray to the Gods of Sleep for all of us

Good night all tc xx 💤

frogmorton

Joan what a relief to see you 😊 oh dear it's thrush no wonder you are struggling to eat. Lucy had that when she was on her treatment it's dreadful!. At least you can fix it now.

Yes I don't like to think of Lucy having a seizure on her own but she's safe now. I've just fixed their hoover for the flat.

My friend is doing a lot better but of course this time of year is very hard we were nursing her wife weren't we? The leaves falling the clocks going back etc. Anyway she suggested a comedy show for next year so I've booked tickets for me Paul her and Kari. The visually impaired man who is on strictly? Take care Joan ((())) xxx

Morning Reshmi

Hope you and your Mum are feeling well today. I should think much better if you slept like the proverbial log 😉 I bet your sister and BIL sleep really well when you have LA for a few nights!!!! They can maybe 'loe-in' a bit unless of course BR is also an early riser🤔

Well done solving the cold room issue. In fact that would have made the cold room a perfect room I think.

I was totally shocked that green tea soap was actually a possible help for eczema. I rather think someone else invented it not RR even though in typical RR style he takes the credit! Of course Toni you forget he is a highly renowned dermatologist!!

Love the poem!!! The way your mind has taken a story from one of LA's books and incorporated characters from your own life! Brilliant just brilliant I wish I could do it. No doubt RR could🙄

I hope your day is a good one ((())) xxx

Morning Toady hope all is reasonably well in Toad's world this fine Saturday.

Our village should start to clear up now Hallowe'en is over so mot more people driving through picking their pumpkins and leaving slushy mud everywhere. I shall dare take the Fig out again 😊

Oh Toady! Typical that's me if I ever shop on Amazon🙄 after the order sends off a day later I think of another 2 things we need. Sleek likes using the printer you must knew that. She is dead chuffed that you were able to add some of her items. She will be with you probably all day hoping they will arrived today. Bless her.

She is perfectly placed for sitting in your window 'keeping an eye' whilst to anyone looking just washing her paws and the birds. Funny how there are so very many birds next door though😉 You think maybe it was just moving in noises, but 'he' the smoking man, was the advanced party?

Please let's hope no friends drive up in their dog-carts Sleek will draw the line at that!!!!

Yes free advice from a nice man for my friend she needs it as a lot has gone wrong in her house recently. 4 blown windows, one leaky shower, the washer and what? Oh yes a leaking rad🙄

You take care Toady have a good day. ((())) xxx

Hope Stuartknee that you are ok and have actually had some sleep in the last couple of days?

dachshund

Good morning everyone

Toady (()) I wonder how much longer the men are making the noise for. They probably don’t think about you. We had two deliveries the same day they took one back. Have a good day. Are they there on the weekend has well.

Toni (()) I had a message from Barbara her granddaughter lost her first baby at 4 months. So sad. Yes that man on Strickly is funny. Have a good day. Love to Paul (()) and Charley (()) and Annie (()) and Arya (()) and Lucy (()) and Tia (()) and Kari (()) and your friend (()) and your lovely neighbours (())

Reshmi (()) have a good day love to your mum take care (())

Afternoon all 🌞 no sun at the moment, just wishful thinking.

Not the best night, not that there was noise much apart from some fireworks after I posted just generally not a good one. The fireworks were an organized thing I think accompanied by live music by someone who thinks they can sing (miaow) at least didn't go on late.

Was glad to see the morning and get a cup of tea ☕ Sleek was indeed bright & early here frog hoping for deliveries 😄 I am due one myself, not from 'them' though. That was a typo yesterday sorry, it was supposed to say I didn't really need any more shopping off the prime, I dithered between typing 'want/need' apparently and took the 'don't' out instead 🙄 so yes Sleek is mainly helping me not waste the remains of the week. Did get a nice paintbrush 😄 the last time I had it in my basket it was min order 3, but I noticed now they decided it need not be 👍. Yes isn't it surprising how many birdies there are to be seen out of the window, and all in the front garden too 🤔😂. Really not sure who is who now I have lost track, but I don't think smoking man is the same one, or is he - more snooping required 🕵️‍♂️. Hope it will soon transpire whether any regular hours will be kept, I am clinging to someone being out in the day at least, I do feel very hemmed in 😕. Sorry to hear your friend has had a run of household 'stuff', why must everything leak? And usually be sneaky about it and inaccessible, it's time we had totally different sorts of systems for plumbing I'm sure it must be possible. Well I must go about a few chores and although it's dull I should get out too, but whether I can muster myself 🤷‍♀️ I hope you can, have a good afternoon :) xx

Hello Joan, glad they took your extra shopping for you, mine was quite a big shop by my standards, I would have been swamped 😬. I think there will be just odd jobs now next door but hard to say because the new people whoever they are may do some things themselves, who knows. I don't think I'll know much til enough time has passed and any sort of pattern emerges like if someone goes out to work I hope. Weekends are always worse if people are at home then 🙄. So so sorry to read what you put about Barbara 😔 why to lovely Barbara's family, of all people, how mean life is 😦. Take care yourself Joan and have a good Sunday as poss hope the mouthwash is helping 😘 xx

Back later love to bosh and everyone catch up with you then 👋 xx

hi Toni toady Joan etc

How are you?

Mums ok 👍

Plumbers are here fixing the shower so no ablutions 😱😱😱

Oh my goodness i went on a double walk so to speak,

My back’s aching no hot shower, in fact no kind of shower at all

Putting a true LA story in the bank it’s called “ Growing Big Ella”

Hopefully I won’t forget it in the meantime

Heating is blaring I’m not sure if I have the energy to write it down

I’m just waiting for “Sinister Saturday” to come to an end

Or maybe “Scapegoat Saturday” but then this Scapegoat Siecle / Century in my house at least, to use a Gallic turn of phrase lol

A real thermostat Vesuvius situation

Signing off from Dubai or something like that 🥵

Bye for now all tc xx

ps Swedish ice hotel - I can but dream xx

bosh

hi everyone

I have been eaten by plumbers

I almost lost my varifocals

The heating has reached horrific levels

I am riding a camel to the town centre

I may be enjoying a peri menopausal mood but it’s not as bad as before

The Growing Big Ella tale may be postponed due to leaves and phantom plumbers on the track

Where is the lime cordial?

Sinister Saturday has almost drawn to a close

Praise Mother Nature

👋 good night Toni toady Joan and Stuartknee tc

toady

Night bosh (and everyone), I have given up the ghost for one night, and am, fascinatingly enough, going to bed to listen to a tape called Ghost Train 😮 this was the plan before I read your post about phantom plumbers on the line. Ooky! Ghosts on the brain at the moment I suppose. Anyway love that flight of fancy and all the rest of it 👍 hope there might be a fin de siecle for you tomorrow and I will rejoin you all then for whatever Sunday may bring 🤞xx

Have a good night everyone 😘 xx

frogmorton

Morning Joan I hope your mouth and throat are beginning to ease now? What dreadfully sad news for Barbara and her family about the new Grandbaby. What on earth happened I wonder, I am so upset for her. I am looking forward to seeing the comedian it's only here in the town so 4 miles away I'll still be in bed by 10:30😉 Take care Joan have a nice day ((())) xxx

Morning Reshmi

How are you today? I hope your Mum is ok too.

I have found you a comfortable bedroom to have a rest in

It is almost impossible for me to sleep in a room that's too hot you have all my sympathy. I turn the heating off an hour before i go to bed I even open the window before too if needs be then close it. It's a bungalow and I don't feel safe at night sleeping with the window open.

Today I get to meet our cousins for the very first time ever! Kari and my brother will be with me so should be very exciting. I don't think they look like us, but my sister does.

I loved the composition Reshmi! Don't worry we can wait to here the Ella poem when the policy is fully matured.

Gosh you are living in Dubai you really must be. When I went there I could hardly breathe it was so hot! For that reason alone I will never go back I hope nor to Saudi.

Did you have much firework noise last night? I expect your sister and BIL take yours to a public display like we used to ours. BIL will like it of there's food there😉

Take care ((())) xxx

Morning Toady hope everything is ok.

Sleek said much the same she can't work out who is who next door. Who's car it is or anything. She plans to sit on the fence if they go outside for easier eavesdropping. She can only hear a certain amount with her glass against the wall you see…. All being well there will be nice quiet regular hours in time once everything is where it should be🤞paws 🐾 crossed.

Well done getting a brush from catazon - singular😊Best to fill your basket over a few days so that you don't forget anything. Sleek is still waiting for her order I think. I really makes her happy on parcel days. Bless.

Forgot to say my friend's fridge freezer has started to leak too and makes quite alarming sort of banging sounds so that needs to go. Bless her she's not having a great time is she?

Amazing how many birdies are out there isn't it for a small cat to watch? I do hope the real ones weren't to frightened of the silly fireworks last night.😕 and that we don't get so many tonight.

Well Toady have a good day think of me meeting the first cousins for the very first time today😯 ((())) xxx

I hope Stuartknee that you are ok and that you are not struggling too much and getting a little sleep. Appointment is this week i know - Tuesday is it?
