took the little guy to Walton to look for dinosaur teeth. And I found him some too.
slightly soaked in tea as only place I had to put them was my take away cup. I thought if I take a pot to put them in we won’t find any.

hi Toni
How are you today?
Mums still ok 👍
I’m doing ok too thanks
Yes the early morning walk is great thanks
Yes I had some nice solitude thanks I had a shower ate some naughty sugary food and watched some rubbish about a stereotypical skinny pizza eating enthusiast and her perfect kids who never have tantrums or do the ironing with their brothers (alternative way of describing “flattening” haha) - it was nice to “veg” as they say.
I like your cheese rehab concept 😂
The moolah could certainly come in handy
I’m glad you liked the cake I spent a month decorating haha
Yes bill may have donned his cloak of invisibility and partaken of 99% of the cake im afraid, I got Riley to pre - lick this sugary treat food but a contaminated snack did not deter Bill The Bloated (or whatever his current title is).
That is a horrible looking Barbie isn’t it?
EF are coming tomorrow afternoon and the 2 littleys are staying over😱😱

Hi all, just a goodnight again I am still trying to be 'good' and not having too much time online, unfortunately that run me today into a longish evening phone call so I didn't come in then as intended. Catch up properly tomorrow Sunday brunch if anyone's offering 😁 perfect Darjeeling teapot frog 👍️. Hardening off Elfie's seedlings, oh how exciting! and nerve-wracking! 😬. Have a good Sunday see you all then 😘 xx
Just to mention Joan my RA hand symptoms were the knuckles at the base of your fingers, I think that's more the classic RA ones mine were warm/pink/swollen etc, the others were stiff rather than knobbly. Your GP must have his reasons for wanting tests etc though 🤔. I hope Pepper is ok let us know how he is, so sorry, it never rains but it pours does it 😟. I don't have any workmen planned at all at the moment thank you 👍️. Take care will be in tomorrow 😘
Have as good night as possible everyone especially the difficulty-sleeping people, sorry to cut short but must get myself off to bed, love to everyone 😘 xx

hello, difficult sleeping person here, as can he seen from the time of this post.

Hi all
Joints aching. beware tonight if you have young plants out there is going to be a frost!!

Morning Joan how are you this morning? Is Pepper better now? So scary when one of our animals is ill they can't explain how they feel😓 Hope Charlie is enjoying Wales. Take care of yourself ((())) xxx
Morning Skinny Keef. How scary! Is this a new reaction for Sucré? You'll have to let nursery know so they can avoid whatever caused it. They can be like that these days not letting children back in if there's even the slightest thing. Yet (apart from this) most stuff they catch from there🙄
Yes I thought your Beemer would attract some serious attention. Penelope does indeed attract similar attention. Imagine if they parked next to each other! We'd stop the traffic😁
Wow actual dinosaur's teeth. There must be a lot if the shop can get hold of them. Having said that you found yours much more exciting for the little chap finding them.
Take care have a good day ((())) xxx
Morning Jojo I am so glad you had a lovely day with the children. They love that farm don't they as do you so you know they were happy, which as a parent makes you happy. I hope you get an appt onTuesday and in the meantime if you have to take the codeine then you must. Take care ((())) xxx
Morning Reshmi how are you today? Glad to hear your Mum is doing well. Definitely a temperature drop yesterday but no rain so far here yet.
BIL cat has definitely gained weight that's for sure. Oh no!!!! Riley pre-licked the cake, but it still didn't deter him from popping on his cloak of invisibility and scoffing the lot🙄 He will soon be locked in my motorhome for his own good and first flattened by BR. 😠 He can alss pay us plenty o' moolah for the privilege.
Sounds as though you really had a good restful day with yourself for company some rubbish videos and maybe a little naughty stuff to eat. PERFECT!!! We all need to 'veg' out from time to time don't we?
Did you really say you are having the boys again so soon overnight?😮 Gosh l hope you did have enough rest yesterday because you sure aren't getting much now for a day or so😣 You'll love it really and we love the stories.
My heart goes out to you all. Bank holidays cause extra trouble for Grandparents and Aunties. Take care ((())) xxx
Morning Toady hope today doesn't run away with you as much and the Darjeeling picks you up a bit. Glad you liked the pot. I'll get some brunch on for us all in a minute.
All well here no rain yet but definitely a drop in temperature.
Sleek is en route and said your phone call was the most boring experience😮 She said she fortified you with tea and biscuits, but you had both had enough🤭
Take care and yes - hardening off Elfie kisses them when they come in at night bless him. ((())) xxx
Morning Stuart hope you aren't too bad with pain😕and you sleep better tonight and a frost? Don't worry none of mine are outside yet. Well only hardening off. So inside the house or greenhouse overnight, but thanks for the tip. (())
A quick wave hello 👋 to Carol hope the family and Mr T as well as you are all well ((())) xxx

Hi Toni, that is something we should try, parking them up together lol.I did an oil/filter change on the other Beemer yesterday when I got in and engine was still warm. I said i wasn’t doing anymore maintenance myself, but thought it couldn’t hurt, hands and back really sore today. ☹️
and I forgot sunscreen on my hands yesterday and they burnt.0 -
Good morning everyone
Toady (()) thank you for your help. The vet thought pepper has kennel cough he could have court it from any dog. I have some hot cross buns I like putting paste on them.
Toni (()) have a good day the sun is shining at the moment. Pepper has to loose some weight. How is Lucy (())
Reshmi (()) have a good day love to your mum (())
Jojo (()) life can be hard at times have a good day
Stuart (()) have a good day love to your mum (())
Skinny Keef (()) I’m sorry Sucr’e has an allergy (()) I bet you look good on your Beamer.
Carol (()) and Mr T (()) have a good day
take care

good afternoon Toni
How are you?
Mums ok👍
EF are descending in less than two hours
And my stomach is a bit ookey -double ook alert 😱😱
I’m going to rest while I can
Please book me a place in cheese rehab
👋morning SK Joan toady xx
Bye for now tc xx

Just finished work feeling really ill and tired think I've over done it again I wish my body would work with me not against me. I hope everyone else's day has been ok.
1 -
Hi all 👋 distinctly chilly here, 13 degrees 😮 can quite believe there was the odd frost. Hope everyone is having as good a day as poss.
It was quite a late brunch frog, thought I had better wash my hair 😱 one nasty job off the list. I have had worse phone calls than last night's but yes I get to the point where I am glazing over (not the caller's fault just concentration), it wasn't very interesting for a small cat that's for sure nowhere near gossipy enough 😉😂. I was very glad of the helping paw and the tea 👍️. Hope you had a good day yourself yesterday, how was the book sale? 😊. Not much doing with me today, I do have a nosegay parcel but thanks to the bank hol I don't have to pack it yet - that's the best I can say for bank hols, can't stand 'em. Have you any plans? Hope dear Elfie's seedlings are hardening off a treat 😀 glad your lupins are tough, I have one that just goes limp if you turn your back but that's in a pot waiting to go out (a self sown I dug up from the drive). Just coming into flower, I'm hoping for blue so presumably will be pink 😄. I've read back and I wasn't sure what our new cafe sideline is sorry, is it the cheese rehab moolah-making scheme? Do I need to get in on the ground floor, investment-wise? 🤭 Hope everyone well and you have some nice weather to come 😘 xx
Hello Joan, what is Pepper's treatment if any? looking on the internet it can go away on its own? Hope it isn't making him feel too glum. Bank holiday tomorrow so no post etc, it's all quiet here today I thought there would be more lawn mowing than there has. I don't have any hot x buns at the moment just some teacakes, but I never have anything savoury on them 😮. Have a good day yourself tomorrow I hope your hands are not too annoying 😘 xx
Hi bosh, I do hope you are bearing up 😬 especially with the ookeyness and hope you did get in some rest beforehand. And your mum is coping ok too 🤞. I liked the frog thing about sorting your dark & light thoughts, that's clever 😄 I was also interested the other day in LA's half and half toast & jam, he could go down in history for that invention 😉 I was listening to a radio thing fiction where funnily enough the character was talking about having 'invented' double decker different-jam sandwiches. Is it just overnight for the littleys not Mon night? Hope the bank hol goes ok are there any activities; not too many and not mima-unfriendly ones hopefully. Have a good evening 👋 xx
Hi SK, I hope Sucré is ok since his nasty reaction 🤞 scary 😔. Going 'dinosaur hunting' will have cheered him up after missing nursery. You did 100 miles on Friday, nice ride! 'head out on the highway' etc 😊✌️ really is the perfect weather. Right, I have been lured into getting a choc mint plant (to be fair I don't need much persuading 😉), and I'd like an orange thyme to be taken into consideration 😂. Have a good Bank Hol and I hope you have a better night xx
Jojo hope you have had a good Sunday after the farm trip, do they have little things to buy there? Always loved gift shops well I still do 😄. I hope you have a good bank holiday 😊 good luck phoning in on Tuesday xx sorry, I didn't catch your post just before me 😔 sorry work was tough, are you off tomorrow?
Thanks Stuart I will keep an eye for frost reports, it is much cooler for sure. My cold frame is not out at the mo so I would bring things in if in doubt, there is not much out in the ground that is tender. Hope your aches have eased off a bit, love to the cats, and hope your Mum is well xx
Love to Carol 😘 have a good afternoon all xx

hi toady
How are you?
just a quick report from the front line
I need some tea “stat” as the doctors say in the tearooms or something like that
I’m rather crackered to be honest, but the littleys are happily enjoying cakes and choccies like only littleys can
As for my ookey stomach it was rather ookey first thing this morning
I did try to eat fairly sensibly
but at this point in the auntie experience
I’m just eating what I can find to a certain extent
so I’ve crossed my fingers and a bribed the oracles with cinnamon porridge or cinnamon toast maybe haha
and we’ll see how that progresses maybe I’ll be fine at the end of the day
or tomorrow morning or maybe a continuation of the ookey situation
I think the littleys are going to the park tomorrow morning so that’s good
no cinema junk food as planned at least thank mother nature for that.
Do you know LA’s toys and it looked a bit like an owl - version of a vampire Nurse?It was judging me and saying, “ Mima did you book you rheumo blood test slightly late again?”
I said, “Well I’ve got a few other things to do here, i’m on mima duty for a start”
Bye for now, Toady take care xxPs what’s in the cake? 😱😱

hi Toni
How are you doing tonight?
Fruit salad song is still going strong- somebody help me 😱
And there’s another song in the same tune sung by the cobra hybrid monster snakes
LA’s cuddly toy looks reminds of a vampire nurse
I womanfully resisted the custard
Meal out tomorrow so let’s hope for kindness from the oracles
I rested but then mum got in a strop so I had insufficient rest in the end
I got the last bottle of Vi*to in the shop
Park tomorrow probably
But no nuggets of gold or chicken at the cinema, thank Mother Nature, Peppa, scary cobra nurses or whatever I’m losing track 😂😂
If you find any discounted patience or energy on nosegay, or the forests or wherever - please send them my way.
👋goodnight Toni toady Jojo Joan SK and S knee
May the cheese be with you all tc xx 🧀
Ps I’m not sure what this pic is about but I like the dog’s comment haha xx

Hi
Achy again another sleeplessness night. At least today I can sit & watch VE day planes go over as I am on a flight path
1 -
Morning Joan hope you are doing ok today? How is Pepper is he all better? I do hope so. Well yes Dacshies do seem to gain weight. The one Tia has in in the pool for exercise it's because she is overweight. Lucy is doing fine ATM thanks for asking. Have you heard from Charlie? ((())) xxx
Morning Jojo you are certainly having a tough time ATM. This is good as it will remind you to get that Drs appt tomorrow and ensure you have plenty to say when you get there. I hope Michael can come with you too for support. Or your mam it does help stop them fobbing you off ((())) xxx
Morning Stuart another rough night for you I am sorry that is bad. Lucky you being able to watch the planes going over though! Wow! (()
Morning Skinny Keef how are you today? Are your hands ok now? Hope you popped aftersun on? I'm sure you did.
I still like doing little jobs on Penelope myself like you do with yours I tend to think while we can it saves money and makes us feel good too. Usually sets some aches off though.
Yes just imagine the stir we'd cause if we parked ours up together?!
Take care ((())) xxx
Morning Reshmi
How are you? Are you still alive? I hope so, gosh I do. Two visits so close together would about see me off that's for sure.
Fruit salad song is still going strong😖and another song with the same tune? nooooo! What is that terrifying ty sent from where to terrify you?!! Nothing should be allowed to look even slightly like vampire nurse😯
You are booked in for rehab as soon as I release BIL pronounced perhaps at the very least temporarily cured. His moolah will be in the café bank account. You don't have to pay being staff.
I hope you can stay away from the park and have an hour to yourself. Perhaps Big Bear will go with your Mum for support and leave you in peace.
Nothing new on at the cinema for the littleys to watch that's a blessing and I hope the gastric Gods have also been kind. Hopefully the meal out (not nuggets) will be reasonably healthy for you.
Go you though (small blessings) getting the last bottle of vimto!
Take care it will soon be over then it's your turn in rehab😉 ((())) xxx
Morning Toadster
How the diddly are things with you? Hair all washed I see. Me today, my turn sadly it has to be done we are eating out tonight can't go looking like this.
Small cats like gossip yes and your phone call was apparently 'tea dee oss' even Toady was bored she told me.
She is quite keen to get the nosegay parcel wrapped today you know how she enjoys boxes and packaging as well as tape.
Yes we are doing cheese rehab so far our only victim - er patient has been BIL who is set to be released - er cured later today. Saving Moolah for the café trip later this year.
Oh all my lupins are boring pink too what can you say?🙄 hopefully yours will survive and maybe just maybe be blue🤞
Temps are definitely down for sure, but all may yet be well.
Oh sorry nearly forgot sis and I took about 8 books and bought about 15😳🤣
Take care hope your day is a good one. ((())) xxx
A quick wave hello👋 to Carol hope all is well any news about your pre-diabetes have you made an impact with your healthy eating? ((())) xxx

morning Toni
how are you?
Mum is okay 👍
I went on a very big walk and I’m rather crackered but it’s better this way
we are going out for a meal a restaurant in Reading so I’ll have to grab some ugly sleep while I can.
My stomach is little but ookey but that may well be stress because mum is getting a bit angry from time to time.
The kids are being fairly good.BR calls me the mima monster
bye for now everyone take care xx
PS BB enjoying a cold morning in a musical manner xx
