Wppl xx

Morning frogmorton not had a good day yesterday was in pain and had a really bad headache. I hope you are well and I hope you have a great day.

Still catnapping

Hi all 👋 half a league onward 👍️ well over half really, chap gone for the day, back tomorrow but probably only for a few tidy up loose ends and finishing up bits. Thank goodness.

Yes we have all broken the back of the job between us frog and quite relieved the boilerman hasn't done his a mischief along the way, it was that sort of a job I think 😬 probably will be every bit as glad as me when I can shut the door on him tomorrow. Thank you for saying I am doing well it was very trying yesterday but mainly (once the houseworky side is out of the way) because you can't really do anything with someone here, can't go in the garden, and not rest either, it's a long time to be sort of hovering about. Well done to you too for the shiny bathroom 🌟🚽 (sparkly surfaces 😎) and hope there's not too much more to think about. Signs should be fun Elfie will probably conjure you up something artistic & eye-catching 😀 hope your laptop is behaving now, if that will be involved in the printing out process etc. Have a good evening I may get outdoors later 👍️ firms are sending me emails about Spring colour, nooo, go away 😣. What's up with your church clock? have I asked before, what are its habits, quarter hour chimes you say, also bellringing as & when? Take care all 😘 xx

Hello Joan nearly there now thank you, yes the boiler is the one causing the trouble and the only one who has been able to have a holiday, hardly fair 😄. I hope your blood test goes well I will be interested to hear how near to a minute past the house you can get it! 🕐️. I hate that at my gp your name goes up on a screen for everyone to see when it's your turn 😒 they used to call it out but that's slightly different, people tend not to pay much attention unless they're being called, and you can mishear, this is so un-private putting it up in big print. Does Charlie have pals at the pub he goes too I can understand why he'd go there it's one of the few places you can spend a bit of time. I know you said he isn't keen on the internet but that would give him an interest except the tv, I don't bother with that much now myself. Have a good evening 😘 xx

Hi bosh, well that's a salutary tale of too much strong coffee 😱😄 I didn't see the punchline coming. I should be ok, admittedly I was swimming in tea practically by the end of yesterday but it's not the sort you can stand the spoon up in 🥄. All these breakfasts, where do they put them?! Also, summertime porridge? 🤨 is it a hearty scottish sort of affair or 'classic' R Brek, mind you not sure why I find hot breakfast odd I eat toast etc, just sounds hotter somehow. That's a very funny little pic of the workmen preparing toast 😄. Nice that the littleys have been making cakes too, I hope everything is going ok so far today, will you be able to extract yourself to go to group tomorrow? Will catch up with any odd news from me when I've had a minute to get any, no time to play with makeup etc at the mo but soon 👍️ I was looking at a hair tint too I was tempted, the mild sort you can just add a drop into your conditioner, but it made people's hair go green apparently 😬 probably where they'd had previous dye but better not risk it, I mean I may be a toad but I draw the line 😂. Take care :) xx

Sorry you had a nasty headache Jojo, is that an on/off thing for you do you tend to know why, or just general. Glad to hear it's better today but not that your foot is playing you up 😔. I am plodding through the boilerman's visit thank you, it's not like you can say it's an ordeal or anything really just the not being able to do what you feel like can't really go off for a nap can you 😬. Should be done tomorrow although the yearly service will be due too so he will be back again sometime, oh well there's always something. Do you or Michael like DIY and tinkering with anything? Hope you have a good evening and some sleep 👍️ xx

Catnapping is definitely the order of the day here I am off for one now Stuart 😺 hoping no-one starts off making any noise. Do the cats keep you company if you have a rest (or do you mean catnaps are all you are managing at night?) Hope your mum is ok 🤞 take care :) xx

Tea up, coffee for SK, love to everyone xx

hi toady

How are you this evening?

Yes I think I’ve got the caffeine idea because LA at one point had a great desire to drink tea like adulks so I had to explain to him that it’s not really a drink for littleys and could not be considered as tasty as juice or squash at least in my opinion ha ha so luckily I managed to convince him not to partake of the old English breakfast tea and so on

Yes I’m not quite sure where this is breakfast - overeating mania has come from to be honest with you.
I understand, if you’re already feeling hot, a hot breakfast may not be that appealing in some ways.
However, our since the work was done on our kitchen, it’s a lot cooler in the morning so I quite enjoy having a bowl of hot cereal myself.

I think they were having normal porridge as it were not the R Brek version.

I think that if I told dad about R Brek, it would be too much for his brain that is so gloriously obsessed with the cultural society and very little else Ha ha

I also like porridge in the morning but it does get boring having it constantly

So R Brek Makes a nice change for me.
I also like shredded beat but not too much of it

As Of course as it could be a bit offensive to the gastric gods, if overdone

Yes, Green hair would be quite a bold fashion choice

even though, of course, it was good enough for Gr*tbags lol

okay bye for now toady have and good evening take care xx

👋 good evening and good night in advance to Joan Jojo SK and S knee xx

Thanks bosh I hope you sleep well tonight too.
