hey Toni, how is Sleek today?

Ah the 'gets everywhere' downside of sand SK, fair enough, never think about that as a non vehicle owner. Hurrah for the cycling Sucré 😊 well done kiddo, the world is your oyster & all that now 👍️. Have a good night :) xx

Thanks bosh I shall try to keep the tshirt thing under reasonable control 👍️👕 I have a charity collection due here on Tues and am rounding up a fairly ruthless bagful by my standards so that should be a good offering to the clothing gods/goddesses. By the way I didn't quite emulate your odd/ood socks yesterday but I was wearing one sock inside out 😄. Have a good night, the stitching hour has overtaken me and it's technically Monday so better go or Toni will be here with breakfast before I've actually been to bed 😬 xx p.s. just re-read, how was QJL's husband; is it a good thing that he has been transferred?

Sleep well everyone 😘 xx

Morning Joan good luck today for your bloods. Hope you have a nice day too and Pepper is doing well. Hope i get the call to say Sleek's meds are in 🤞 Sooner I start them the happier I will be. I have my lung health check at the Drs this morning too then craft group. ((())) xxx

Morning Jojo what a shame you couldn't get the right week off. Still you did get Easter so that was something. Not easy is it when children get 12 weeks holiday and normal people only get 4.

TOTM does make our arthritis pains worse I'm sure it does I've read it somewhere. When I had my back surgery the consultant said it too. So you take care when you can. Fantastic seed planting by you and the children. What are they growing? ((())) xxx

Morning Skinny Keef went to a car show in Leek yesterday it was gorgeous out there and we took one of the cars (not Penelope - she's due her MOT) saw some great sights. It was also would you believe the scooter (bike scooters not foot pedal ones) event was in Leek so 100's of them on the roads too!

Well done to Sucré for pedalling his bike I am very impressed he really is only quite little. I know I often want to post vids but still photos are better than nothing. Gosh do I remember sand🙄Nightmare.

Sorry your Mum was sleeping, but at least you've been and you know she is well bless her. I expect you enjoyed that ride back too😉

Have a good day ((())) xxx

Morning Stuart how are you and your Mum I expect you are a bit achy ATM still after all that work. I planted up 3 planters in the village yesterday. Sending ((())) to you both.

Morning Reshmi how are you today? Glad to hear your Mum is ok no more hypos. Even if our walsk tire us we know they are good for us don't we?

How sweet is BR helping to (very carefully) load the dishwasher for his Grandad. No way would he invent flattening. Who is it I wonder at nursery, maybe LA knows. Perhaps the sibling tell each other things which adulks don't get told🤔

That little cat pic is so cute.

Morning Toady who seems to have had a better day yesterday topped off with your very own first summer harvest. Did Sleek enjoy a radish? She i as right we should pace ourselves. Elfie was behaving much better treating Sleek normally again yesterday making erm pumping noises under his armpit like a normal 8 year old again. Did you know elves can't tell lies? Apparently not unless that was one🤔

Lung check up for me (only at the Drs total waste of time) this morning then the craft group. Then Stoke to visit my friend crikey! I'll be glad of my bed later. Joan is having bloods.

The whole of our back garden is sunny here it does make pics tricky. Loving watching the birds catching insects later on in the evening though. Elfie keep borrowing my binoculars though and leaving them in strange places unless that's me😮 That is a lovely lovely blue your lupin.

Planted up three village planters yesterday all self watering ones which P did years ago so once done and topped up should be ok to go.

It was Joan who reminded me of Barbara's birthday, but as it's the same as Jojo's we will remember next year.

Take care ((())) xxx

Hi frogmorton yeah I'm pleased we got easter off and we have time off with the kids the end of July so not too long really. Yeah I'm still in a lot of pain with my lower back I hope it eases off in a couple of days I've got a heat pad on again. I hope your cat is ok and I hope he takes his medicine well for you. I hope you are well and I hope you have a great day. And we are planting some sunflower seeds and pansies I've done a tray as well.
